Inner Priesthood of Righteousness

Neville's Inner Vision

Within you is a temple where conviction and imagination govern all movement. When the verse speaks of priests clothed with righteousness, it is describing your choice to clothe your inner self with the certainty of I AM, not external ritual. The saints that shout for joy are your moments of gratitude when you refuse the old doubt and celebrate the reality you are now assuming. David represents the inner leader—the idea of kingly dominion in consciousness, the unshakable authority of the I AM over every circumstance. For thy servant David's sake turn not away the face of thine anointed becomes a vow to keep your focal point on that inner anointed self, the personal God within you, and not to withdraw attention from what you claim as true. This is not about history but about the state you inhabit. Every feeling of righteousness and every note of joy confirms the reality you are choosing to live.
