Neville's Inner Vision

In Neville's language, the names on the page dissolve into your inner life. Naphtali becomes a disposition of steadfastness; Ahira is the voice within you that chooses loyalty to the I AM. The silver charger and bowl, the flour mingled with oil, the incense, the burnt offering, the sin offering, and the peace offerings are not external rites but the textures of your inner ritual—how you pour attention, weigh thoughts, offer your best, acknowledge fault, and seal your decisions with gratitude. The divine is not a distant judge, but the awareness that witnesses every state you inhabit. To 'offer' is to select a state and repeat it until it becomes your norm. The long list reveals a practice of covenant: you are loyal to the I AM, not to fear or lack. As you revise in imagination, you reconstitute your sense of self; a new you is formed by the sums of your inner rituals. These acts invite the feeling that you belong to the covenant here and now.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and imagine you are the I AM witnessing your own offerings; name one state you will 'offer' today (for example calm attention or grateful presence) and feel it as real until it settles into you.
