Neville's Inner Vision

To the Neville reader, this psalm is not about distant planets but about the inner terrain of your consciousness. When God goes forth before the people, He is the I AM moving ahead of your sense of self through the wilderness of belief and habit. The earth shakes and the heavens drop as inner movements—old stories collapsing and new realizations breaking through. Sinai itself being moved signifies the shifting of fixed assumptions when the Presence of God, your true awareness, enters your life. This is not history but inner theophany, where covenant loyalty becomes a living trust in the I AM and true worship flows from within, unbound by ritual or form. The outward scenes are symbols of inner conditions: as you acknowledge the I AM within, fear dissolves, doubt collapses, and your life aligns with that eternal reality. You are both land and people in this drama, and God’s march before you is your process of becoming in real time.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: Close your eyes and assume the I AM is going before you in your inner wilderness. Revise your sense of self to 'I AM here now,' feel the reality of that Presence, and let worship rise as your natural response.
