Inner Praise and Restoration

Neville's Inner Vision

Imagine the LORD not as a far-off ruler, but as your I AM, the undivided consciousness you dwell in. When you praise, you align with that consciousness and grant it permission to move in your inner city. 'It is good to sing praises unto our God' becomes a statement of inner alignment; the habit of celebration invites a restoration that begins in spirit and ripples into feeling. The 'Jerusalem' mentioned is your inner state—order, unity, worship—in which every forgotten part is re-membered. The 'outcasts of Israel' are the thoughts and wounds you have pushed to the margins. In this light, praise functions as a revision of memory: as you declare and feel the presence, the outcasts are gathered, their estrangement dissolves, and your life is rebuilt on the rock of awareness. You are not begging; you are recognizing what is already true in I AM. So choose to feel that you are being built up by divine power, that the city is restored within you, and that joy and presence now define your days.
