Read Psalms 103 in context

Scripture Focus

19The LORD hath prepared his throne in the heavens; and his kingdom ruleth over all.

Psalms 103:19-21

Biblical Context

The passage declares that God sits on a throne in heaven and governs all; His angels and hosts are sent to carry out His will.

Neville's Inner Vision

Psalm 103:19-21, in Neville's sense, reveals that the throne and kingdom are not distant places but the state of consciousness you inhabit. The heavens symbolize your I AM awareness, and to say God rules over all is to acknowledge that your inner state rules every moment of experience. The angels who excel in strength are your thoughts formed with intense feeling and obedience to the word you decree. They rush to fulfill your commands, listening for the vibration of your voice—your present assumption. The hosts of heaven are your inner ministers—your beliefs, habits, and faculties—who act in concert when you set a clear, loving purpose. To revise is to replace limitation with the truth of your sovereignty; to feel it real is to persist in the mood of ruling, until the outer world aligns with your inner decree. The verse invites you to dwell in the awareness that all kingdom, order, and service begin within.

Practice This Now

Sit with eyes closed and place yourself upon the inner throne; declare, 'I AM the Lord of my consciousness; my angels obey the voice of my word,' and let the feeling of sovereignty fill you until it becomes your lived experience.
