Scripture Focus

2And said unto me, What seest thou? And I said, I have looked, and behold a candlestick all of gold, with a bowl upon the top of it, and his seven lamps thereon, and seven pipes to the seven lamps, which are upon the top thereof:

3And two olive trees by it, one upon the right side of the bowl, and the other upon the left side thereof.

Zechariah 4:2-3

Biblical Context

In Zechariah 4:2–3, a vision shows a gold lampstand with seven lamps and two olive trees beside it, signaling a constant divine presence and a living flow of grace. The imagery invites inner awareness of how consciousness (God/I AM) feeds and sustains all light.

Neville's Inner Vision

Your world is the lampstand, and the oil it drinks is your awareness fed by the I AM. The candlestick is a fixed, golden state of consciousness, and the bowl on its top is the vessel through which life and light are poured into every lamp. The seven lamps stand in ordered unity because your attention is not scattered; the pipes feeding the lamps are the movements of your inner life, carrying divine energy to each facet of your being. And those two olive trees, one on each side, are the two rivers of supply that never fail—grace and discernment—sourced from the One Source. When you identify with the I AM, the light does not struggle; it simply is, shining through every part of you, right and left alike, radiating calm, wisdom, and favor. The vision is not historical lore but an invitation: maintain the awareness that you are both the lamp and the oil, the observer and the flow, the vessel and the living light of God within.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Close your eyes, assume you are the I AM, the inner lampstand. Feel the oil rising from the two olive trees to fill the bowl, and allow all seven lamps to glow with perfect light.
