The Inner Covenant Holds You

Neville's Inner Vision

Let the LORD be understood as your I AM, the unchanging awareness by which you live. The psalmist declares that the I AM will not cast off His people, nor forsake His inheritance. In Neville’s practice, this is not a historical note but a statement about your inner state: you do not fall out of divine favor; you awaken into a steady consciousness that never abandons the idea of you. 'People' refer to your inner states—courage, faith, compassion—and 'inheritance' is the abundant ideas you already own by awareness. When fear seeks to convince you you are forsaken, you are simply identifying with a thought that is not true of God’s nature. The truth is the I AM is always present, safeguarding your covenant with good, mercy, and faith. You are not separate from this divine fidelity; you are the beneficiary of it as you remain awake to your indwelling Father. Practice: revise fear by affirming, 'I AM with me; I am the inheritor of divine gifts.' Sit in quiet, feel the presence, and let the feeling of being held by the I AM flood your imagination.
