Honor is earned respect or esteem, which is given. You can, for example, honor God, even though God has no physical power over you. Power, on the other hand, is force. You may not honor your boss, but he has power over you and can terminate your employment, transfer you to the ends of the earth, or do whatever he chooses as long as you remain in his employ.
The Giver meant that honor comes from a place of respect and integrity, earned through one's actions and character. Power, on the other hand, often comes from position or authority and does not necessarily guarantee honor or respect.
What the Giver meant was that even if you have power beyond imagination, you cannot have honor unless the people honor you. Even if you have great honor, you cannot have power.
