Biblical Context

Neville's Inner Vision

To Neville, these verses are not about rites but the inner state that precedes any event. 'Remember all thy offerings' becomes the mind’s remembrance of its agreements with the I AM, offerings representing fixed beliefs you deem worthy of realization; 'accept thy burnt sacrifice' signals the inner purge of doubt, a burn-off of limitation by steadfast attention. 'Selah' invites a stillness in which the vision confirms its own truth. 'Grant thee according to thine own heart' means your inner state aligns with the wish; when your heart truly desires, the law responds. 'Fulfil all thy counsel' is the conviction that the plan you hold in awareness is already written in the folds of your being. 'We will rejoice in thy salvation' is the present joy of the realized state; 'in the name of our God we will set up our banners' becomes signaling the victorious inner symbol that the dream is already done. 'The LORD fulfil all thy petitions' is the universal law honoring your affirmed reality. Thus, the Psalm teaches you to dwell in the feeling of the wish fulfilled, and let your inner light stamp it into outward form.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and assume the wish fulfilled in present-tense, feeling the joy of salvation as already done. Let this inner state guide your next decisions and align your world with the vision.
