More quotes by Aiden Wilson Tozer
I believe that entertainment and amusements are the work of the Enemy to keep dying men from knowing they're dying and to keep enemies of God from remembering that they're enemies.

I would like to live to see the time when the men and woman of God - holy, separated and spiritually enlightened - walk out of the evangelical church and form a group of their own when they get off the sinking ship and let her go down in the brackish and worldliness and form a new ark to ride out the storm.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Too often we are Christians by assumption, manipulation or instruction, rather than Christians by regeneration.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Selfishness is never so exquisitely selfish as when it is on its knees. ... Self turns what would otherwise be a pure and powerful prayer into a weak and ineffective one.
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.

To understand a Bible text it takes an act of the Holy Spirit equal to the act that inspired the text in the first place. A revelation of the Holy Spirit in one glorious flash of inward illumination would teach you more of Jesus than five years in a theological seminary.

The heart that knows God can find God anywhere.

To fear and not be afraid- that is the paradox of faith.

God must do everything for us. Our part is to yield and trust

Pay no heed to the passing religious vogue. Go back to the grass roots. Open your hearts and search the Scriptures. Bear your cross, follow your Lord. The masses are always wrong. In every generation the number of the righteous is small. Be sure you are among them.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Keep my eyes fixed on You, Lord. Help me to stop tinkering and realize my total inability to change. I look to You to change me and give me victory as I focus on Your friendly eyes looking lovingly at me. Amen.

Coming before God in quietness & waiting upon Him in silence often can accomplish more than days of feverish activity.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We modern Christians are long on talk and short on conduct.
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
Everything is wrong until Jesus sets it right.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
God and I here is the beginning and the end of personal religion.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Christians must understand most emphatically that the world around us is in conflict with the Word within us.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Pure Christianity, instead of being shaped by its environment, actually stands in sharp opposition to it.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The kingdom of God is not in words. Words are only incidental and can never be fundamental. When evangelicalism ceased to emphasize fundamental meanings and began emphasizing fundamental words, and shifted from meaning to words and from power to words, they began to go down hill.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Retire from the world each day to some private spot. Stay in the secret place till the surrounding noises begin to fade out of your heart and a sense of God's presence envelops you. Deliberately tune out the unpleasant sounds and come out of your closet determined not to hear them. Listen for the inward voice till you learn to recognize it.
