Bible Bites

Promises Made, Promises Kept

“If a man makes a vow to the LORD or takes an oath to bind himself with a binding obligation, he shall not violate his word; he shall do according to all that proceeds out of his mouth.” (Numbers 30:2)

         Vows, oaths, and giving your word – these are all different ways of saying the same thing.  Your word is a binding obligation.  You are tied to what you say.  Words aren’t just air transferred across vocal chords; they come from the heart, and they mean something.

         Be careful what you promise to God and to man.  Your word binds you.

Matthew 4:4 #Biblebites

This Week’s Reading: Numbers 27-34; Psalm 18; Proverbs 18

This year, #Biblebites are looking at lessons from the history of the Old Testament.  Each week reads a section of history with a Psalm to meditate on and a dash of Proverbs to dwell upon.  If you would like a copy of the reading schedule, you can view it here: https://eastlandchristians.org/news-events/2024-vision
