For years I have been walking towards God promise for me and my family. It hasn't always been easy, but I have learned some MAJOR lessons along the way the biggest being the difference between Gods promise and Gods provision.
Believe me they are COMPLETELY different. One is a declaration and ASSURANCE of what will be while the other is living where you are. One is brought to life from obedience and faith the other is given from His love to us to meet our need.
The journey from Provision to Promise isn't hard really it just requires letting go of what you think you need, where you think you should go and who you think you should be. I know, I know you're like wait a minute that doesn't sound easy at all. To us it never is.
Laying down ourself is the hardest things we will do. It involves complete surrender. Yet over this year I have found there is STRENGTH in surrender. There is POWER in realizing you can't do it alone. The great news is we never have to.
If you want to stand in the PROMISES then you must show you are content with what you have been given (the provision) and surrender your plans to the one who wrote your story. It's not about settling my friends it's about being RESOLVED to only accept His best!
