The faith of Christ offers no buttons to push for quick service. The new order must wait the Lord's own time, and that is too much for the man in a hurry. He just gives up and becomes interested in something else.

More quotes by Aiden Wilson Tozer
Holiness has nothing to do with what we know and everything to do with Who we know.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
If you do not worship God seven days a week, you do not worship Him on one day a week. There is no such thing known in heaven as Sunday worship unless it is accompanied by Monday worship and Tuesday worship and so on.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
As long as we think we own anything, that thing owns us. As soon as we know that we own nothing, then God owns us.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
If we insist upon trying to imagine Him, we end with an idol, made not with hands but with thoughts and an idol of the mind is as offensive to God as an idol of the hand.
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
Made as we were in the image of God we scarcely find it strange to take again our God as our All. God was our original habitat and our hearts cannot but feel at home when they enter again that ancient and beautiful abode.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
A local church will only be as great as its conception of God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
If we try to obey without faith, we get nowhere. If we try to have faith without obedience, it ends in nothing.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The notion that the careless sinner is the smart fellow and the serious-minded Christian, though well-intentioned, is a stupid dolt altogether out of touch with life will not stand up under scrutiny. Sin is basically an act of moral folly, and the greater the folly the greater the fool.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Religion can reform a person’s life, but it can never transform him. Only the Holy Spirit can transform!
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The various elements of truth stand in perpetual antithesis, sometimes requiring us to believe apparent opposites while we wait for the moment when we shall know as we are known.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
It is dangerous to be so busy that you have no time to wait on God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The more fascinated we become with the toys of this world, the more we forget that there's another world to come.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
It is necessary for God to use the hammers, the file, and the furnace in His holy work of preparing a saint for true sainthood. It is doubtful whether God can bless a man greatly until He has hurt him deeply.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
My miseries have always come out of my own flesh, never from any burden Jesus has laid on me.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Come near to the holy men and women of the past and you will soon feel the heat of their desire after God. They mourned for Him, they prayed and wrestled and sought for Him day and night, in season and out, and when they found Him, the finding was all the sweeter for the long seeking.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The average Christian is so cold and so contented with His wretched condition that there is no vacuum of desire into which the blessed Spirit can rush in satisfying fullness.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
When God would make His Name known to mankind He could find no better word than I AM. When He speaks in the first person He says, I AM when we speak of Him we say, He is when we speak to Him we say, Thou art. Everyone and everything else measures from that fixed point. I am that I am, says God, I change not.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
What has the church gained if it is popular but there is no conviction, no repentance, no power?
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We boast in the Lord but watch carefully that we never get caught depending on Him.
