3And he that sat was to look upon like a jasper and a sardine stone: and there was a rainbow round about the throne, in sight like unto an emerald.

Revelation 4:3-4

Biblical Context

It presents an inner throne of divine awareness, with light like jasper and sardine stone, surrounded by a rainbow; around the throne are four and twenty elders in white with gold crowns, symbolizing purified faculties under divine kingship.

Neville's Inner Vision

In this vision the throne is your own consciousness, and He that sits is the I AM you are awakening to in this moment. The jasper and sardine stones are not distant gems but the colors of your inner life—clarity, vitality, mercy—shining as you turn attention to the now. The rainbow around the throne is your covenant of supply, harmonizing every color into one rich spectrum when you align with I AM awareness. The twenty-four elders around the throne are not others outside you; they are the facets of your being—your faculties, your memories, your desires—arranged in order, white robes signaling purity, crowns of gold signifying the authority that belongs to you as the child of God. Worship is the steady attention you give to your divine nature, honoring the Presence that animates all appearances. Realize you already sit on the throne and let that realization alter your inner climate; the outer world follows your inner sense of kingship and the genuineness of your worship.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and affirm, 'I AM on the throne of my consciousness.' Visualize the emerald rainbow around the throne, the jasper and sardine light, and the twenty-four elders in white with gold crowns, all under your I AM-kingdom and worship.
