The sacred page is not meant to be the end, but only the means toward the end, which is knowing God Himself.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The believing man does not claim to understand. He falls to his knees and whispers, God. The man of earth kneels also, but not to worship. He kneels to examine, to search, to find the cause and the how of things.

The pain of sacrificing our old selves is nothing compared to the joy of Christ living in us in our transformed lives.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
A low view of God is the cause of a hundred lesser evils. A high view of God is the solution to ten thousand temporal problems.

God dwells in eternity but time dwells in God. He has already lived all our tomorrows as He has lived all our yesterdays.

Though the cross of Christ has been beautified by the poet and the artist, the avid seeker after God is likely to find it the same savage implement of destruction it was in the days of old. The way of the cross is still the pain-wracked path to spiritual power and fruitfulness.

I believe that the imperative need of the day is not simply revival, but a radical reformation that will go to the root of our moral and spiritual maladies and deal with causes rather than with consequences, with the disease rather than with symptoms.

It is doubtful we can be Christian in anything unless we are Christian in everything.

The true Church has never sounded out public expectations before launching her mission. Her leaders heard from God, they knew their Lord's will and did it. Their people followed them - sometimes to triumph, oftener to insults and public persecution - and their sufficient reward was the satisfaction of being right in a wrong world!

The essence of surrender is getting out of God's way so that He can do in us what He also wants to do through us.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
You will never please everybody. Some men will say you have gone too far. Other men will say you haven't gone far enough. I just compromise and say I won't please anybody.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We have measured ourselves by ourselves until the incentive to seek higher plateaus in the things of the Spirit is all but gone.

The Christian is strong or weak depending upon how closely he has cultivated the knowledge of God.

God works as long as His people live daringly He ceases when they no longer need His aid.

If JESUS cannot control you, HE cannot save you. And if HE cannot control ALL of you HE cannot control any of you.

Breezy, self-confident Christians tell us how wonderful it is to accept Christ and then have a good time all the rest of your life the Lord won't demand anything of you. Yes, He will, my friend! The Lord will demand everything of you. And when you give it all up to Him, He may bless it and hand it back, but on the other hand He may not.

Jesus our Lord is Prophet, Priest, and King. The concept is not new, yet many preachers never preach it, and many congregations never hear it.
