Self is the opaque veil that hides the Face of God from us. It can be removed only in spiritual experience, never by mere instruction.

Faith is not a conclusion you reach...it's a journey you live.

O God, I have tasted Thy goodness, and it has both satisfied me and made me thirsty for more. I am painfully conscious of my need for further grace.

Every advance that we make for God and for His cause must be made at our inconvenience. If it does not inconvenience us at all, there is no cross in it.

What I was saved to is much more important than what I was saved from.

God never hurries. There are no deadlines against which he must work. Only to know this is to quiet our spirits and relax our nerves.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
May God grant us a desire for God that supersedes all other desires.

Nothing that comes from God will minister to my pride of self-congratulation. If I am tempted to be complacent and to feel superior because I have had a remarkable vision or an advanced spiritual experience, I should go at once to my knees and repent of the whole thing. I have fallen victim to the enemy.

We are often hindered from giving up our treasures to the Lord out of fear for their safety this is especially true when those treasures are loved relatives and friends. But we need have no such fears. Our Lord came not to destroy but to save. Everything is safe which we commit to Him, and nothing is really safe which is not so committed.

Truth is a glorious but hard mistress. She never consults, bargains or compromises.

The Word of God well understood and religiously obeyed is the shortest route to spiritual perfection. And we must not select a few favorite passages to the exclusion of others. Nothing less than a whole Bible can make a whole Christian.

God purposed redemption in Christ Jesus before the world began, and His plan does not need any editing by man.

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.

A scared world needs a fearless church.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We must have a new reformation. There must come a violent break with that irresponsible, amusement-mad, paganized pseudo-religion which passes today for the faith of Christ and which is being spread all over the world by unspiritual men employing unscriptural methods to achieve their ends.

No one can know the true grace of God who has not first known the fear of God.

The atonement in Jesus Christ's blood is perfect there isn't anything that can be added to it. It is spotless, impeccable, flawless. It is perfect as God is perfect.

Complacency is the deadly enemy of spiritual progress. The contented soul is the stagnant soul.
