Vows
Through out scripture, men and women made vows to God when they were in trouble or backed in a corner. Jacob vowed a vow, saying , “If God will be with me, and will keep me in this way that l go, and will give me bread to eat, and raiment to put on, So that l come again to my father’s house in peace; then shall the Lord be my God: And this stone, which l have set for a pillar, shall be God’s house: and of all that thou shalt give me l will surely give the tenth unto thee.”Genesis 28:20-22“
Jacob made this vow on the way to the house of Laban. He had walked all the way from present-day Israel to present -day Iraq. He was in trouble. He had lost his home. His life was in danger. His brother had threatened to kill him.
People generally don’t make vows unless they are in trouble and they are backed into a corner.Jacob was obviously aware that his survival was obviously aware that his survival was at stake. Where would he get food and water? How could he protected from the dangers he faced? That’s when he vowed that if God would get him where he was going and back, he would give a tenth of everything he owned.
Make a vow to The Lord, consider yourself and determine to fulfill your vows to Him.
