The Word Within You

Neville's Inner Vision

Romans 10:8 speaks of a word so near it sits in your mouth and in your heart. The 'word' is not out there on a distant hill; it is your internal state, your present awareness—the I AM that you are. When you say the word in faith, you are not naming something future; you are igniting a living reality within your own consciousness. The near-ness of the Word is the nearness of your own awakening to your own sentient presence. To apply it, live from the assumption that the form of that word is already true. Close your eyes, breathe, and declare, 'I am the Word in me now.' Let the feeling saturate the chest and the throat; imagine your mental speech becoming the outward expression of the reality you already are. Every thought, every breath, is a single movement of faith: belief in the I AM as all that exists. Trust the process, revise any contrary perception, and watch outward events adjust to your inner state as you persist in this felt certainty.
