More quotes by Aiden Wilson Tozer
To have found God and still to pursue Him is the soul's paradox of love, scorned indeed by the too-easily-satisfied religionist, but justified in happy experience by the children of the burning heart.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The reason why many are still troubled, still seeking, still making little forward progress is because they haven't yet come to the end of themselves. We're still trying to give orders, and interfering with God's work within us.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Christian theology teaches the doctrine of prevenient grace, which briefly stated means this, that before a man can seek God, God must first have sought the man.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
True obedience is the refusal to compromise in any regard our relationship with God, regardless of the consequences.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
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.

[Prayer] takes no time, but it occupies all our time.
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.

God will speak to the hearts of those who prepare themselves to hear and conversely, those who do not so prepare themselves will hear nothing even though the Word of God is falling upon their outer ears every Sunday.

If Bible Christianity is to survive the present world upheaval, we shall need to have a fresh revelation of the greatness and the beauty of Jesus.... He alone can raise our cold hearts to rapture and restore again the art of true worship.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Wherever faith has eyes to see, there is a smiling presence of the Son of God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
There is more healing joy in five minutes of true worship than in five nights of revelry.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We must do worldly jobs, but if we do them with sanctified minds, they become offerings to God.

God desires to reveal to us that His capacity to forgive is bigger than our capacity to sin.

We are often hindered from giving up our treasures to the Lord out of fear for their safety this is especially true when those treasures are loved relatives and friends. But we need have no such fears. Our Lord came not to destroy but to save. Everything is safe which we commit to Him, and nothing is really safe which is not so committed.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The only fear I have is to fear to get out of the will of God. Outside of the will of God, there's nothing I want, and in the will of God there's nothing I fear, for God has sworn to keep me in His will. If I'm out of his will that's another matter. But if I'm in His will, He's sworn to keep me.

The essence of surrender is getting out of God's way so that He can do in us what He also wants to do through us.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Repentance isn't only sorrow for past sins, it's also a determination to now do the will of God as He reveals it to us

Tens of thousands, perhaps millions, have come into some kind of religious experience by accepting Christ, and they have not been saved.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Until we believe that we are as bad as God says we are, we can never believe that He will do for us what He says He will do. Right here is where popular religion breaks down.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
When we have the Holy Spirit we have all that is needed to be all that God desires us to be.
