Job 22:24-28>[24]Throw away your gold; dump your finest gold in the dry stream bed.>[25]Let Almighty God be your gold, and let him be silver, piled high for you.>[26]Then you will always trust in God and find that he is the source of your joy.>[27]When you pray, he will answer you, and you will keep the vows you made.>[28]You will succeed in all you do, and light will shine on your path.Unfortunately, people would rather worship the almighty dollar instead. Or nowadays, bitcoins and NFT's. >you will keep the vows you madeMore likely 'vows' mean those things that people begin naming when they are begging God to take away their suffering(s).>"Please God, I p-promise I'll stop doing [__], [__], and [__] i-if you pull me out of this critical situation".Or>"Please Lord... if you bless me with a million dollars, I promise I'll use most of it to help take care of the poor"God takes those vows seriously. Which is why you should be careful what you vow. Lest your situation ends up even worse than what it started out as. Worship God.... not money.

>>18025787Sux brah. Count yourself lucky that God is merciful and willing to forgive. Just expect to be just as forgiving towards your spouse the same way if she ever were to break any of her marriage vows towards you. Different married folks make different vows towards each other. There's a reason why we call God "faithful". Doesn't break any of His vows (written throughout the scriptures).
>>18025787>I've been suffering greatly because I broke a promise I made without thinking I didn't even realized was taken as a contract.Isaiah 54:4-8>[4]Do not be afraid — you will not be disgraced again; you will not be humiliated. You will forget your unfaithfulness as a young wife, and your desperate loneliness as a widow.>[5]Your Creator will be like a husband to you — the Lord Almighty is his name. The holy God of Israel will save you — he is the ruler of all the world.>[6]Israel, you are like a young wife, deserted by her husband and deeply distressed. But the Lord calls you back to him and says:>[7]“For one brief moment I left you; with deep love I will take you back.>[8]I turned away angry for only a moment, but I will show you my love for ever.” So says the Lord who saves you.It practically is a relationship or marriage. Or, as they say, "new covenant".
Verse related is one of the reasons you ought to be careful what you vow to God. You will have to do it, or face the consequences of breaking the vow, which may end up being even harsher.Judges 11:30-32[30]Jephthah promised the Lord: “If you give me victory over the Ammonites,>[31]I will burn as an offering the first person that comes out of my house to meet me, when I come back from the victory. I will offer that person to you as a sacrifice.”>[32]So Jephthah crossed the river to fight the Ammonites, and the Lord gave him victory.And then, this...Judges 11:34-36>[34]When Jephthah went back home to Mizpah, there was his daughter coming out to meet him, dancing and playing the tambourine. She was his only child.>[35]When he saw her, he tore his clothes in sorrow and said, “Oh, my daughter! You are breaking my heart! Why must it be you that causes me pain? I have made a solemn promise to the Lord, and I cannot take it back!”>[36]She said to him, “If you have made a promise to the Lord, do what you said you would do to me, since the Lord has given you revenge on your enemies, the Ammonites.”It's why you shouldn't be reckless with what you vow. I imagine it's even worse for folks who sell their soul for fame, riches, or some form of supernatural ability.
