Scripture Focus

1Wisdom hath builded her house, she hath hewn out her seven pillars:

2She hath killed her beasts; she hath mingled her wine; she hath also furnished her table.

Proverbs 9:1-2

Biblical Context

Wisdom is pictured as building a house with seven pillars, ready to sustain and nourish. It signals an inner provision for discernment and community.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within the I AM there is a house a wisdom builds, a center of consciousness you awaken to. The seven pillars are seven steadfast states you choose to inhabit: clarity, integrity, discernment, generosity, unity, receptivity, faith. When you dwell in this inner architecture, the beasts of fear and limitation are slain by attention and revision; the wine of joy is mingled in your daily experience; the table is furnished with acts of service and with opportunities shared in common. Notice: this is not a temple far away, but a house you envision and live from. Your outer world rearranges itself to mirror the inner cornerstone you maintain. The message is clear: make a habit of returning to this inner structure, nourish it with decisions of courage, and invite abundance into your life by seeing yourself as the host of a divine feast. In this way, the community around you is healed by your inner order and unity.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, assume you are the builder of Wisdom's inner house, and feel the seven pillars standing firm. Revise any sense of lack by tasting the feast inward and deciding to share it with others.
