Scripture Focus

19He will turn again, he will have compassion upon us; he will subdue our iniquities; and thou wilt cast all their sins into the depths of the sea.

Micah 7:19-20

Biblical Context

Micah 7:19-20 speaks of God turning toward us with compassion, subduing our wrongs, and casting sins away; it also affirms the lasting covenant of truth and mercy promised to our forefathers.

Neville's Inner Vision

Beloved, Micah's words are not about a distant deity but about your inner I AM turning toward you. When you consent to the present, God’s compassion awakens; the impulse to condemn yourself is subdued by the awareness that you are already forgiven. Your old, guilty self is cast into the depths of the sea of your subconscious, dissolved by the sea-change of imagination. The 'truth to Jacob' and 'mercy to Abraham' are the inner covenant your awareness keeps with itself through the I AM—the enduring promises that you are equipped, protected, and redeemable. The moment you inhabit this truth, the past ceases to rule you; the future becomes a safe harbor where mercy and fidelity endure. Your present imagining is the law; you bring the covenant into actuality by feeling it as real.

Practice This Now

Sit in quiet awareness and assume the feeling, 'I am forgiven; my past is cleansed.' Visualize sins sinking into a vast sea and feel their departure from your mind. Rest in the sense of the I AM keeping truth and mercy with you for several minutes.
