Have you noticed how much praying for revival has been going on of late - and how little revival has resulted? I believe the problem is that we have been trying to substitute praying for obeying, and it simply will not work.

If we take away any of the attributes of God, we do not weaken God but we weaken our concept of God.

The weakness of so many modern Christians is that they feel to much at home in the world. In their effort to achieve restful 'adjustment' to unregenerate society they have lost their pilgrim character and become an essential part of the very moral order against which they are sent to protest.

Faith is the gaze of a soul upon a saving God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We have been snared in the coils of a spurious logic which insists that if we have found Him we need no more seek Him.

Complacency is easy...and it is a deadly foe of spiritual growth.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The basic trouble with the church today is her unworthy concept of God... Our religion is weak because our God is weak... Christianity at any given time is strong or weak depending on her concept of God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
My aim each day is to adore God more than anything else.
