More quotes by Aiden Wilson Tozer
If you do all the talking when you pray, how will you ever hear God's answers?
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Prayer is never an acceptable substitute for obedience. The sovereign Lord accepts no offering from His creatures that is not accompanied by obedience. To pray for revival while ignoring or actually flouting the plain precept laid down in the Scriptures is to waste a lot of words and get nothing for our trouble.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The devil loves it when we say we believe then prioritize everything in our lives ahead of God.
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
No matter what the circumstances, we Christians should keep our heads. God has not given us the spirit of fear, but of power, of love and of a sound mind. It is a dismal thing to see a son of heaven cringe in terror before the sons of earth.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Of all forms of deception self-deception is the most deadly, and of all deceived persons the self-deceived are the least likely to discover the fraud.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
I believe in Christian charity, but I don't believe in Christian tolerance... When we become so tolerate that we lead people into mental fog and spiritual darkness, we are not acting like Christians we are acting like cowards!
Aiden Wilson Tozer
There is no limit to what God can do through us if we are a yielded and purified people.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Walking in humility isn't focusing on what we are NOT rather, it's declaring what God is.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We have learned to live with unholiness and have come to look upon it as the natural and expected thing.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Compare yourself only with Jesus.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
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.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
In Him (God), history and prophecy are one and the same.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
God wants us to make Jesus Christ the central figure in our church--not just say that we do, but actually do it.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
What now does the divine immanence mean in direct Christian experience? It means simply that God is here. Wherever we are, God is here. Ther eis no place, there can be no place, where He is not.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Any manipulation of the Scriptures to make them speak peace to the natural man is evil and can only lead to ruin.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
One thing is certain: the call of Christ is always a promotion. Were Christ to call a king from his throne to preach the gospel to some tribe of aborigines, that king would be elevated above anything he had known before. Any movement toward Christ is ascent, and any direction away from Him is down.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
God's redemptive revelation in Scripture is necessary to saving faith and peace with God. Faith in a risen Savior is necessary if the vague stirrings toward immortality are to bring us to restful and satisfying communion with God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The low view of God entertained almost universally among Christians is the cause of a hundred lesser evils everywhere among us.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
A Christian should put away all defense and make no attempt to excuse himself either in his own eyes or before the Lord. Whoever defends himself will have himself for his defense, and he will have no other. But let him come defenseless before the Lord and he will have for his defender no less than God Himself.
