The Inner Lineage of Tamar

Neville's Inner Vision

Consider that the names in Matthew 1:3 are not distant deeds of ancient men, but your inner states under the law of I AM. Judah is the I AM aware of its own power to generate; Tamar's presence—often seen as a troubling insertion—confirms that God’s line includes the bold, the unexpected, and the faithful who persevere. Perez and Zerah are the fruits of a conscious act under pressure; Hezron and Aram are successive awakenings of awareness as you live from the covenants written in your heart. The scripture becomes your inner chronology, a map of how belief and feeling move and reproduce themselves in your life. When you allow Tamar's inclusion, you affirm that every fragment of experience—joy, shame, longing—belongs to the sacred family of your I AM. Your imagination is the loom; the I AM is the power weaving your past into your present destiny. Embrace the line’s integrity, and you stand in covenant loyalty with God, knowing you are already the heir of this blessed lineage.
