Guarding the Soil of Your Soul

This week, Dr. GreGory shared a prophetic and powerful message that’s still stirring in our spirits. It wasn’t just a sermon—it was a warning, an invitation, and a reset all in one.

From a vivid dream involving a lion, a wheel, and a rainbow, to the sobering truth that we reap not just what we sow, but what we allow to grow—God used this moment to wake us up and call us into alignment.

God Reveals Before He Releases

The vision God gave our pastor—a lion, a wheel, and a rainbow—was more than symbolic. It was divine insight. The lion reminded us of the authority and power of God, the wheel spoke to divine movement and timing, and the rainbow signaled covenant and covering. These aren’t just images—they’re cues. And when God shows us something that sticks through dreams, Pastor reminded us: don’t just talk about it. Sit with God in prayer. Ask Him to interpret what He showed you.

Doing and Being Are Not the Same

We live in a culture that celebrates performance, but Pastor drew a clear line between doing and being. You can be busy doing things for God and still miss who He’s calling you to become. Being rooted in Christ is more important than being seen. Your identity must be built on presence, not performance.

We Reap What We Allow to Grow

This was a sobering reminder: you may not have planted it—but if you let it grow, you’ll still reap it. That goes for bitterness, offense, fear, or toxic relationships. Pastor challenged us to stop blaming external forces when we’ve allowed things to take root in our spirit. Your soil is your responsibility. Pull up what doesn’t belong.

They That Dwell Therein

Taken from Psalm 24, Pastor reminded us that God is looking for dwellers, not visitors. There’s a difference between stepping into God’s presence on Sunday and dwelling in it daily. Dwelling means establishing spiritual consistency—it’s how we begin to take real ownership of what God has entrusted to us.

Love Has Standards

One of the most freeing parts of this discussion was the clarity on love. Pastor said plainly: “Love is not anything goes.” Real love has boundaries. Real love honors truth. It follows God's commandments. Love isn’t just an emotion—it’s a commitment to walk in truth, righteousness, and grace.

This discussion wasn’t just about dreams, faith, or self-reflection—it was about transformation. We are being called to examine what’s growing in our lives, check what we’re allowing, and realign with God's standard. Not out of fear—but out of love. Because God wants our soil clean, our hearts soft, and our lives fruitful.
