More quotes by Aiden Wilson Tozer
Until the Bible begins to talk to us, we really have not been reading it.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Abounding sin is the terror of the world, but abounding grace is the hope of mankind.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The Christian woman should remember that she cannot buy true attractiveness that radiance which really shines forth in beauty is of the heart and spirit and not of the body.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Leadership requires vision, and whence will vision come except from hours spent in the presence of God in humble and fervent prayer?
Aiden Wilson Tozer
It is useless for large companies of believers to spend long hours begging God to send revival. Unless we intend to reform we may as well not pray. Unless praying men have the insight and faith to amend their whole way of life to conform to the New Testament pattern there can be no true revival.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Salvation is from our side a choice, from the divine side it is a seizing upon, an apprehending, a conquest by the Most High God. Our 'accepting' and 'willing' are reactions rather than actions. The right of determination must always remain with God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Faith is an organ of knowledge, and love an organ of experience.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Prayer will become effective when we stop using it as a substitute for obedience.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
God tells us to make a sanctuary of our thoughts in which He can dwell.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The idea that this world is a playground instead of a battleground has now been accepted in practice by the vast majority of Christians.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The devil loves it when we say we believe then prioritize everything in our lives ahead of God.
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
We Christians must simplify our lives or lose untold treasures on earth and in eternity. Modern civilization is so complex as to make the devotional life all but impossible. The need for solitude and quietness was never greater than it is today.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The key to prayer is simply praying.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We can never know who or what we are till we know at least something of what God is.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
There is scarcely anything so dull and meaningless as Bible doctrine taught for its own sake. Truth divorced from life is not truth in its Biblical sense, but something else and something less.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
God's purpose in redemption is to make worshipers out of rebels.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
As the excellence of steel is strength, and the excellence of art is beauty, so the excellence of mankind is moral character.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The burden borne by mankind is a heavy and a crushing thing. The word Jesus used means a load carried or toil borne to the point of exhaustion. Rest is simply release from that burden. It is not something we do, it is what comes to us when we cease to do. His own meekness, that is the rest.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The purpose of good works isn't to change us or save us rather, it's the demonstration of the change within us.
