Inner Light Psalm Four

Neville's Inner Vision

Within the language of the psalm, the 'sons of men' are states of consciousness, not distant people. The glory is the inherent majesty of the I AM within you; vanity and leasing (deception) are beliefs that shadow that glory. Selah is the pause that invites your imagination to rest in the truth you already are. The line 'But know that the LORD hath set apart him that is godly for himself' declares that your divine nature is already reserved for your use, always ready to be tuned in; the Lord will hear when I call means that the moment you acknowledge the I AM's supplication, the response arises as inner assurance. 'Stand in awe, and sin not: commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still' translates to keeping a reverent mind, turning within to the core of identity, and letting thought settle. 'Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in the LORD' is an invitation to act in harmony with truth and to trust the inner law of response. 'There be many that say, Who will shew us any good?' is doubt; 'lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us' becomes the inner vision—the light of awareness shining upon you from within. Labour not in the outer; awaken and dwell in this conviction. The practice is to assume the state and feel the reality, and events align.
