Inner Service of the Self

Neville's Inner Vision

Think of the Levites as your inner state of service, an attitude that steps forward to tend the tabernacle of daily life. Before Aaron, representing the outward authority of circumstance, your inner counselor stands, listening to the still, small I AM and then moving in harmony with that command. The invitation here is to notice that ‘as the LORD had commanded Moses concerning the Levites, so did they unto them’ is not about ritual obligation but about you giving form to your inner decree. When you assume a state that serves the temple within—your thoughts, feelings, and decisions—you enact covenant loyalty: you have said yes to the order of your own I AM. Obedience becomes a felt quality, not a rule. In this view, the act of serving is imagining and maintaining the inner atmosphere where every thought aligns with divine intention. The outward results—quiet confidence, clarity, and steady action—flow from this inner agreement.
