Inner Offering of Purity

Neville's Inner Vision

Within this verse you are invited to see an offering as a state of consciousness prepared by inner nurture, not a mere outward act. The bull, sheep, or goat stands seven days under the dam, signaling seven days of inner apprenticeship to the mothering womb of awareness—the subconscious refining motive, purifying desire, and aligning it with holiness. On the eighth day, the creature is accepted as an offering made by fire to the LORD; so too your imagined act becomes real only after rigorous inner preparation. When you refrain from rushing and cultivate a steady, pure climate within, you offer not objects but a settled being that God can affirm. Your I AM does not judge by external forms but by whether your inner condition matches your wished-for manifestation. The moment you dwell in a completed offering, you are already that which you seek; the outer world merely mirrors the inner acceptance you have quietly assumed. Practice this: treat seven days as the inner apprenticeship to your desired state, and on the eighth day, assume it fully as done.
