The sovereign God wants to be loved for Himself and honoured for Himself, but that is only part of what He wants. The other part is that He wants us to know that when we have Him we have everything - we have all the rest.

People who are crucified with Christ have three distinct marks: 1. they are facing only one direction, 2. they can never turn back, and 3. they no longer have plans of their own.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
It is doubtful we can be Christian in anything unless we are Christian in everything.

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
Nothing that God has ever said about Himself will be modified nothing the inspired prophets and apostles have said about Him will be rescinded. His immutability guarantees this.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The grace of God is infinite and beyond our ability to measure. His grace has no beginning and therefore no end.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
If you do not worship God seven days a week, you do not worship Him on one day a week. There is no such thing known in heaven as Sunday worship unless it is accompanied by Monday worship and Tuesday worship and so on.

We must have a new reformation. There must come a violent break with that irresponsible, amusement-mad, paganized pseudo-religion which passes today for the faith of Christ and which is being spread all over the world by unspiritual men employing unscriptural methods to achieve their ends.

We must never edit God.

There is a better way. It is to repudiate our own wisdom and take instead the infinite wisdom of God.

The unbelieving mind would not be convinced by any proof, and the worshiping heart needs none.

It's not my business to try and make God think like me... but to try, in prayer and penitence, to think like God.

Every ransomed man owes his salvation to the fact that during his days of sinning, God kept the door of mercy open.

In Christ and by Christ, God effects complete self-disclosure , although He shows Himself not to reason but to faith and love. Faith is an organ of knowledge, and love an organ of experience. God came to us in the incarnation in atonement He reconciled us to Himself, and by faith and love we enter and lay hold on Him.

No one can know truth except the one who obeys truth. You think you know truth. People memorize the Scriptures by the yard, but that is not a guarantee of knowing the truth. Truth is not a text. Truth is in the text, but it takes the text plus the Holy Spirit to bring truth to a human soul.

Let her love God as He is in Himself, and not as her imagination says He is, and pictures Him.

When religion has said its last word, there is little that we need other than God Himself. The evil habit of seeking God-and effectively prevents us from finding God in full revelation. In the and lies our great woe. If we omit the and we shall soon find God, and in Him we shall find that for which we have all our lives been secretly longing.

There is a strain of loneliness infecting many Christians, which only the presence of God can cure.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Apart from God nothing matters. We think that health matters, that freedom matters, or knowledge or art or civilization. And but for one insistent word they would matter indeed. That word is eternity.
