There are no unconditional promises in Gods word. The entire plan of the ages rests in His hands, but He requires our participation as well. Isaiah 1:19 "IF you are willing and obedient, you will eat the good of the land".
Willingness and obedience are character traits, and therefore God focuses on our character intensely. "Out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks". "Guard your heart with all diligence for out of it flow the issues of life". Who I am inside is much more important than what I have outside.
I am the clay and He the potter. I must give Him the authority to mould me as His will. After all, His plans are to give me a future and a hope.
