Better is it that thou shouldest not vow, than that thou shouldest vow and not pay.
Ecclesiastes 5:5
“Shalom Precious Soul! Receive His GRACE to be mindful of making any type of promises and endeavour to prioritize character and integrity. This weekend shall announce you with good news”. “Nigeria shall be great again”.
Better is it that thou shouldest not vow, than that thou shouldest vow and not pay.
Ecclesiastes 5:5
Our words matter. Especially when our words take the form of promises, vows, and guarantees. If we make a promise, the expectation is that we keep it. Our legal systems recognize the enforceability of written contracts. And God remembers the promises we make.
Heavenly Father, You alone are faithful. You keep Your promises and Your word never fails. I confess that I have been careless with vows and promises. Help me to consider the weight of my words and to temper my promises with wisdom, so that I may oblige myself only to the things that I can do, and the things that honor You. In Jesus’ Willing Name, Amen.
