We can afford to follow Him to failure. Faith dares to fail. The resurrection and the judgment will demonstrate before all worlds who won and who lost. We can wait.

More quotes by Aiden Wilson Tozer
As a sunbeam perishes when cut off from the sun, so man apart from God would pass back into the void of nothingness from which he first leaped at the creative call.

Be hard on yourself and easy on others. Carry your own cross but never lay one on the back of another

God never uses anyone greatly until He tests them deeply.

Teach us to know that we cannot know, for the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God. Let faith support us where reason fails, and we shall think because we believe, not in order that we may believe.

Time is a resource that is non-renewable and non-transferable. You cannot store it, slow it up, hold it up, divide it up or give it up. You can’t hoard it up or save it for a rainy day—when it’s lost it is unrecoverable. When you kill time, remember that it has no resurrection.

God is not silent. It is the nature of God to speak. The second person of the Holy Trinity is called The Word. The Bible is the inevitable outcome of God's continuous speech. It is the infallible declaration of His mind.

What then are we to do about our problems? We must learn to live with them until such time as God delivers us from them...we must pray for grace to endure them without murmuring. Problems patiently endured will work for our spiritual perfecting. They harm us only when we resist them or endure them unwillingly.

To men and women everywhere Jesus says, Come unto me, and I will give you rest. The rest He offers is the rest of meekness, the blessed relief which comes when we accept ourselves for what we are and cease to pretend.

It requires a serious mind and a determined heart to pray past the ordinary into the unusual.

Left to ourselves we tend immediately to reduce God to manageable terms.

I have no doubt that historians will conclude that we of the twentieth century had intelligence enough to create a great civilization but not the moral wisdom to preserve it.

The labor of self-love is a heavy one indeed. Think whether much of your sorrow has not arisen from someone speaking slightingly of you. As long as you set yourself up as a little god to which you must be loyal, how can you hope to find inward peace?

We might be wise to follow the insight of the enraptured heart rather than the more cautious reasoning of the theological mind.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We pursue God because, and only because, He has first put an urge within us that spurs us to the pursuit.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Our self-trust is such a subtle thing that it still comes around whispering to us even after we are sure it is gone.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
What I cannot know by reason, I can know by simply believing.

The doctrine of the Trinity...is truth for the heart. The fact that it can not be satisfactorily explained, instead of being against it, is in its favor. Such a truth had to be revealed no one could imagine it.

We know how God would act if he were in our place - he has been in our place.

The church that is not jealously protected by mighty intercession and sacrificial labors will before long become the abode of every evil bird and the hiding place for unsuspected corruption. The creeping wilderness will soon take over that church that trusts in its own strength and forgets to watch and pray.

Promoting self under the guise of promoting Christ is currently so common as to excite little notice.
