not at this time, but those who do vow, should keep it:
Ecclesiastes 5:4,5 - When thou vowest a vow unto God, defer not to pay it; for he hath no pleasure in fools: pay that which thou hast vowed.
Better is it that thou shouldest not vow, than that thou shouldest vow and not pay.

This is an individual and "very private" thing between a person and God. One knows that they can not make a "vow" with God that they don't intend to keep. Yes, whatever I have spoken with God about, he "holds me" to it. I know that this is true. I wish you and all of your loved ones, peace, love and God's blessings.

Yes, I vowed Him my life and He vowed me a new home, a glorified body that will never grow old or die, a kingdom, crowns, a new name, a new heaven and a new earth, and a relationship with Him that will never end...And He will do the same for anyone who does the same..

Yes, I vow to look forward and not back, to always look on the bright side of things, and to enjoy life on a daily basis with no regrets.
And I try to keep it everyday.

Well, I don't necessarily make 'vows' with God, I just try to do what is right and do what is important for my God.

No, I do not have a special vow. But if one has, one should keep it.

a couple years ago i asked God for something to happen, i dont remember what, but if it happened then I would pray to him every night before I went to bed. After I made that promise I've pretty much never broken it and now i cant fall asleep before i say a prayer.

I try to do what is right and avoid what it is wrong. So far since adopting this methodology i have seen great strides in my life. i don't always succeed but i pray for forgiveness and continue on. Glory be to God.
