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.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Hardly anything else reveals so well the fear and uncertainty among men as the length to which they will go to hide their true selves from each other and even from their own eyes.

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.

Powerless religion may put a man through many surface changes and leave him exactly what he was before.

The cross where Jesus died became also the cross where His apostle died. The loss, the rejection, the shame, belong both to Christ and to all who in very truth are His. the cross that saves them also slays them, and anything short of this is a pseudo-faith and not true faith at all.

Christianity at any given time is strong or weak depending upon her concept of God.

No one can know truth except the one who obeys truth. You think you know truth. People memorize the Scriptures by the yard, but that is not a guarantee of knowing the truth. Truth is not a text. Truth is in the text, but it takes the text plus the Holy Spirit to bring truth to a human soul.

Only after all the noise has spent itself do we begin to hear in the silence of our heart, the still, small, mighty voice of God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
What's closest to your heart is what you talk about, and if God is close to your heart, you'll talk about Him.

My miseries have always come out of my own flesh, never from any burden Jesus has laid on me.

The Bible is not an end in itself, but a means to bring men to an intimate and satisfying knowledge of God.

If a man has only correct doctrine to offer me, I am sure to slip out at the first intermission to seek the company of someone who has seen for himself how lovely is the face of Him who is the Rose of Sharon and the Lily of the Valley. Such a man can help me, and no one else can.

My aim each day is to adore God more than anything else.
