More quotes by 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
There is a restlessness within us that cannot be satisfied until we rest fully in God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Every ransomed man owes his salvation to the fact that during his days of sinning, God kept the door of mercy open.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
There has been grave error. I do not mean so much error of doctrine as error of emphasis.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
No religion has ever been greater than its idea of God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Beauty is in the eye of the Creator.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Are you satisfied being filled with good information about God, or do you long to burst into His manifest presence?
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The man who preaches truth and applies it to the lives of his hearers will feel the nails and the thorns. He will lead a hard life, but a glorious one. May God raise up many such prophets. The church needs them badly.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
You will never please everybody. Some men will say you have gone too far. Other men will say you haven't gone far enough. I just compromise and say I won't please anybody.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Be hard on yourself and easy on others. Carry your own cross but never lay one on the back of another
Aiden Wilson Tozer
In trying to count our many blessings the difficulty is not to find things to count, but to find time to enumerate them all.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The love of God is one of the great realities of the universe, a pillar upon which the hope of the world rests. But it is a personal, intimate thing too. God does not love populations, He loves people. He loves not masses, but men.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Faith is seeing the invisible, but not the nonexistent.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
God is never impressed with what a man can do. He is more concerned with what a man is.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
How completely satisfying to turn from [our] limitations to a God who has none.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Whoever seeks God as a means toward desired ends will not find God. The mighty God, the maker of heaven and earth, will not be one of many treasures, not even the chief of all treasures. He will be all in all or He will be nothing. God will not be used.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The man who has God for his treasure has all things in one.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Modern civilization is so complex as to make the devotional life all but impossible. It wears us out by multiplying distractions and beats us down by destroying our solitude, where otherwise we might drink and renew our strength before going out to face the world again.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The great test of faith is to wait on God. . . not expecting to push a button and get whatever we want now.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Pseudo faith always arranges a way out to serve in case God fails it. Real faith knows only one way and gladly allows itself to be stripped of any second way or makeshift substitutes. For true faith, it is either God or total collapse.
