Inner King of Mercy

Neville's Inner Vision

Within you the I AM sits enthroned. When you accept that 'the king's life' is not a body-long measure but a state of consciousness, you see why the psalm promises prolongation: you hold the inner ruler steady in the awareness of God. Abiding before God forever is not time but constancy of attention—dwelling where truth and mercy operate as your inner laws. Mercy and truth are not external acts but your habitual dispositions; fear, doubt, and contraction fade when you prepare mercy and truth as your protecting habits. The 'singing' and 'vows' are simply the practice of praising your own nature and affirming your commitment to the divine order, daily. Thus, the psalm becomes a manual: align with the I AM; let mercy and truth preserve you; and daily renew your vows by living as the eternal king, awake to God in every thought.
