Gods’ Conditional Promise

I just realized , when God promise something, He requires us to do someting before He give us what He promised . Take the case of Joshua , God promised him the vast land”every place where you set your foot” and protection”No one will be able to stand up against you….I will never leave you”

But theres a condition: “Be strong and courageous,” “be careful to obey the law” “meditate on it day and night”

Here’s another promise ” If you abide in me and my words abide in you, ask whatever you want and it will be done to you”

So before asking anything from the Lord, it is important to abide in His word first.

I am not a Bible student, this is just my personal interpretation. Any thoughts about this? I will be very glad to hear from you.
