Inner Gift of Levites

Neville's Inner Vision

Within your present consciousness, the Levites are not a tribe but the awakened faculties—attention, reverence, and intention—taken from the crowd of thoughts to serve the LORD of your being. The text declares they are given as a gift to the LORD to do the service of the tabernacle; in Neville’s language, your I AM grants you the office of priest and the duty to tend the altar within the veil. The service is a gift—not a task to be conquered, but a state of conscious order by which life is experienced as orderly worship. The stranger who approaches is the fear, doubt, or unworthy impulse that would encroach on inner worship. The command to put the stranger to death is a symbolic instruction: do not nurture or entertain such thoughts, refuse them space in your inner sanctuary, and return your mind to the sacred keeping of the altar. Your priestly office is a form of discipline that preserves clarity, loyalty, and holiness in consciousness. Through this inner order, you awaken to the truth that you are the I AM, the servant and guardian of your own tabernacle.
