Preserved by the I Am

Neville's Inner Vision

Remember, the verse speaks not to external institutions but to your inner state. The Lord who keeps them is the I AM you are aware of, the steady consciousness that cannot be moved by waves of circumstance. To read it as Neville would is to see preservation as a present tense experience: you are not awaiting protection but dwelling in the state that remains intact, regardless of the generation you suppose yourself to inhabit. The cruel walk about and the exaltation of vilest men are projects of memory—stories told by fear. In the psyche, when you identify with that fear, you feel abandoned and threatened; when you identify with the I AM, you feel intact, guided, and favored. The forever of verse 7 is a declaration of timeless grace—the grace that supports, corrects, and leads you to salvation as a continuous present reality. Providence is not a future event but your inner alignment with the source of life. Mercy flows from the I AM as you revise the sense of self from lack to fullness, from doubt to trust, from separation to unity with divine counsel.
