Numbers 30:2
When a man makes a vow to the LORD or takes an oath to obligate himself by a pledge, he must not break his word but must do everything he said.
Broken Promise
Be careful to fulfill the spoken commitments you make: “When a man makes a vow to the LORD or takes an oath to obligate himself by a pledge, he must not break his word but must do everything he said.” Your commitments to ourselves and to other people are held to the same standard as our commitments to God. There is a powerful lesson here about the seriousness of a broken promise. We may often feel less obligated to fulfill a commitment made to someone of lesser stature, like children. The Bible tells us that every commitment we make is equally binding. It’s a matter of your own integrity. Just as God keeps His promises, we must keep ours, as well. Are there outstanding promises that you’ve made that haven’t been fulfilled? Now is the time to follow through.
