Scripture Focus

1The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.

2The LORD shall send the rod of thy strength out of Zion: rule thou in the midst of thine enemies.

3Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power, in the beauties of holiness from the womb of the morning: thou hast the dew of thy youth.

4The LORD hath sworn, and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.

5The Lord at thy right hand shall strike through kings in the day of his wrath.

6He shall judge among the heathen, he shall fill the places with the dead bodies; he shall wound the heads over many countries.

7He shall drink of the brook in the way: therefore shall he lift up the head.

Psalms 110:1-7

Biblical Context

Psalm 110 invites the inner self to sit at the right hand of the LORD in consciousness, ruling within amid imagined enemies. It proclaims an eternal priesthood and a vitality of holiness that arises from alignment with the inner state.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within the psalm, the words 'the LORD said unto my Lord' signal a shift in your awareness: the I AM appoints your inner self to sit in supreme authority. When you consent and assume that throne, you place your attention at Zion—the central source of divine power—so that you may rule in the midst of imagined enemies. The 'dew of thy youth' and 'beauties of holiness' describe a vitality and purity that arrive as you align with this state. The oath that you are 'a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek' declares you belong to an unending rite of inner worship and leadership, unbound by time or external ritual. At your right hand, power strikes through limiting beliefs; judgments begin with your thoughts, cleansing the space of fear. The brook you drink from along the way is the perpetual nourishment of truth that sustains you on the journey, lifting your head in quiet, confident ascent.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Close your eyes, assume the posture of one seated at the right hand of your I AM, and feel the rod of power flowing from Zion. Revise any sense of lack by declaring, 'I AM the power and holiness now,' and let this feeling-realization rest in you throughout the day.
