Read Psalms 80 in context

Scripture Focus

1Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, thou that leadest Joseph like a flock; thou that dwellest between the cherubims, shine forth.
Psalms 80:1

Biblical Context

Psalms 80:1 calls to the divine shepherd and a desire for God’s presence to shine forth from within. It presents life as being led by conscious guidance.

Neville's Inner Vision

In this verse you are invited to relocate God from a distant sky to the I AM within your own consciousness. The Shepherd of Israel is the state of awareness that can lead your inner Joseph—the many thoughts, impulses, and memories—like a single flock toward harmony. The phrase dwelling between the cherubims points to the central, radiant seat of awareness inside you, the inner sanctuary where truth resides; to 'shine forth' is not a plea for an event, but a declaration of illumination radiating through every aspect of life. When you hear this call and imagine yourself as the shepherd, you stop fighting your thoughts and begin guiding them with a steady, loving consciousness. Your job is to hold the vision of order and wholeness, knowing that imagination creates reality. The presence between the cherubims becomes your disciplined imagination, your quiet I AM, through which all outward scenes reorganize to reflect the inward governance of your mind. Trust that the light you seek already resides as you, now.

Practice This Now

Assume the I AM is the Shepherd within; imagine leading your inner thoughts as a single flock and feel the presence shining forth within you for a few minutes today.
