More quotes by 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
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.

When our Lord looked at us, He saw not only what we were -- He was faithful in seeing what we could become! He took away the curse of being and gave us the glorious blessing of becoming.

There is more healing joy in five minutes of true worship than in five nights of revelry.

Light means nothing to a blind man.

It is either all of Christ or none of Christ! I believe we need to preach again a whole Christ to the world - a Christ who does not need our apologies, a Christ who will not be divided, a Christ who will either be Lord of all or will not be Lord at all!

Refuse to be average.

We tend by a secret law of the soul to move toward our mental image of God.

Sermonettes make Christianettes.

Let God be true but every man a liar is the language of true faith
Aiden Wilson Tozer
For it is not mere words that nourish the soul, but God Himself, and unless and until the hearers find God in personal experience they are not the better for having heard the truth.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
It is a high Christian privilege to pray for one another within each local church body and then for other believers throughout the world. As a Christian minister, I have no right to preach to people I have not prayed for. That is my strong conviction.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The more highly we think of ourselves-our abilities and talents-the less God can use us.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Christians aren't finished products. We're God's sons and daughters in process.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
To pray without expectation is to misunderstand the whole concept of prayer and relationship with God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
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.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Sometimes I go to God and say, God, if Thou dost never answer another prayer while I live on this earth, I will still worship Thee as long as I live and in the ages to come for what Thou hast done already. God’s already put me so far in debt that if I were to live one million millenniums I couldn’t pay Him for what He’s done for me.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Most Christians don't hear God's voice because we've already decided we aren't going to do what He says.

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