More quotes by Aiden Wilson Tozer
Until self-effacing men return again to spiritual leadership, we may expect a progressive deterioration in the quality of popular Christianity year after year till we reach the point where the grieved Holy Spirit withdraws - like the Shekinah from the temple.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
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.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The great test of faith is to wait on God. . . not expecting to push a button and get whatever we want now.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
What we think about when we are free to think about what we will – that is what we are or will soon become.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
As God is exalted to the right place in our lives, a thousand problems are solved all at once.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Whoever will listen will hear the speaking heaven. This is definitely not the hour when men take kindly to an exhortation to listen, for listening is not today a part of popular religion. We are at the opposite end of the pole from there. Religion has accepted the monstrous heresy that noise, size, activity and bluster make a man dear to God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We modern Christians are long on talk and short on conduct.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
A whole new generation of Christians has come up believing that it is possible to 'accept' Christ without forsaking the world.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Keep my eyes fixed on You, Lord. Help me to stop tinkering and realize my total inability to change. I look to You to change me and give me victory as I focus on Your friendly eyes looking lovingly at me. Amen.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
If you never mention the Lord in conversation with each other,isn't that proof that you aren't so concerned about Him?
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Nothing's easier to talk about than surrendering ourselves and dying on the Cross. Nothing's harder than actually doing it.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
True faith rests upon the character of God and asks no further proof than the moral perfections of the One who cannot lie.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The purpose of God isn't to save us from Hell. The purpose of God is to make us like Christ.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
I remind you that there are churches so completely out of the hands of God that if the Holy Spirit withdrew from them, they wouldn't find it out for many months
Aiden Wilson Tozer
What is wisdom? It is the skill to achieve the perfect means by the perfect ends
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The Bible recognizes no faith that does not lead to obedience, nor does it recognize any obedience that does not spring from faith. The two are at opposite sides of the same coin.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Justice is not something God has. Justice is something that God is.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
It is my opinion that the Christian conception of God current in these middle years of the twentieth century is so decadent as to be utterly beneath the dignity of the Most High God and actually to constitute for professed believers something amounting to a moral calamity.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
It is altogether doubtful whether any man can be saved who comes to Christ for His help with no intention to obey Him.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We must meet the uncertainties of this world with the certainty of the world to come.
