Psalms 104:22

Biblical Context

Daybreak arrives; the sun rises and the animals gather. They then lie down in their dens.

Neville's Inner Vision

You are the I AM; the sun’s rising is the awakening of your inner state. When daybreak appears in imagination, the 'they' who move through life are your faculties gathering under a single, central assumption. Thoughts, feelings, and actions align around the new idea you have chosen in consciousness. The dens are your deepest habits and identifications, now resting under the light of truth. Providence and guidance are not distant forces but the orderly movement of your inner state when you dwell in a truth you accept. To practice, image the dawn inside you and declare that this new state is already present; feel it real until your outer world aligns with it. Let the old self lie down and let the new self rise, and observe your life reflecting this inner order.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: Sit quietly, close your eyes, and declare, 'The day has risen in me; I AM awake now.' Hold this as your reality for five minutes, breathing into the new state until it feels solid.
