The man who preaches truth and applies it to the lives of his hearers will feel the nails and the thorns. He will lead a hard life, but a glorious one. May God raise up many such prophets. The church needs them badly.

Where God is not glorified, that place is sick
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Nothing's easier to talk about than surrendering ourselves and dying on the Cross. Nothing's harder than actually doing it.

Silence is often the most eloquent answer to our critics.

Whenever you see confusion, you can be sure that something is wrong. Disorder in the world implies that something is out of place. Usually, at the heart of all disorder you will find man in rebellion against God. It began in the Garden of Eden and continues to this day.

The best preparation for worship is not a rehearsal, but surrender.

Did you ever stop to think that God is going to be as pleased to have you with Him in Heaven as you are to be there?

Any faith that does not command the one who holds it is not a real belief it is a pseudo belief only. And it might shock some of us profoundly if we were brought suddenly face to face with our beliefs and forced to test them in the fires of practical living.

We tend by a secret law of the soul to move toward our mental image of God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The heart of the world is breaking under this load of pride and pretense. There is no release from our burden apart from the meekness of Christ.

Churches are more prosperous than at any time within the past several hundred years. But the alarming thing is that our gains are mostly external and our losses wholly internal and since it is the quality of our religion that is affected by internal conditions, it may be that our supposed gains are but losses spread over a wider field.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
A spiritual kingdom lies all about us, enclosing us, embracing us, altogether within reach of our inner selves, waiting for us to recognize it. God Himself is here awaiting our response to His presence. This eternal world will come alive to us the moment we begin to reckon upon its reality.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
To know that God thinks about me is the beginning of my journey of faith.

How frightful a thing it is for the preacher when he becomes accustomed to his work, when his sense of wonder departs, when he gets used to the unusual, when he loses his solemn fear in the presence of the High and Holy One when, to put it bluntly, he gets a little bored with God and heavenly things.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We are sent to bless the world, but we are never told to compromise with it.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Promoting self under the guise of promoting Christ is currently so common as to excite little notice.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
I am Thy servant to do Thy will, and that will is sweeter to me than position or riches or fame, and I choose it above all things on Earth or in Heaven.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Self is the opaque veil that hides the face of God from us.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
As long as you set yourself up as a little god to which you must be loyal there will be those who will delight to offer affront to your idol.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Any sermon that is not birthed in prayer is not a message from God no matter how learned the preacher.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We can take whatever path in worship we choose, but not all paths will end at the feet of Jesus.
