Biblical Context
Psalm 97:2 speaks of God surrounded by clouds and darkness, with righteousness and judgment dwelling as the throne's habitation. It points to an inner order where divine authority reigns through a disciplined state of awareness.
Neville's Inner Vision
To Neville's ear, these lines describe not a distant sky, but your own consciousness. Clouds and darkness around him symbolize the shifting moods and unseen movements within you. The throne is a state of awareness where righteousness and judgment reside as governing principles of your inner world. When you imagine God as the I AM that you are, you see that justice is not punishment but alignment—intelligent discernment by which you live. The habitation of the throne becomes your habitual state of integrity, a mental climate where every thought is measured against truth. If fear, guilt, or confusion arise, treat them as clouds passing through the sky of your consciousness, not the truth of who you are. By abiding in this inner atmosphere, you allow the appearances of life to reflect a just order consistent with your higher self. The mind becomes the throne; the world reflects the reign you permit there.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and assume the feeling: 'I AM the throne of righteousness and judgment within my mind.' Repeat until it feels true, then revise every stray thought as a passing cloud, knowing the inner state re-creates your world.
