Have you noticed how much praying for revival has been going on of late - and how little revival has resulted? I believe the problem is that we have been trying to substitute praying for obeying, and it simply will not work.

More quotes by Aiden Wilson Tozer
The unbelieving mind would not be convinced by any proof, and the worshiping heart needs none.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Abounding sin is the terror of the world, but abounding grace is the hope of mankind.
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
Satan hates God for His own sake, and everything that is dear to God he hates for the very reason that God loves it.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Yes, I believe you can be right with God and still not like the way some people behave. Our admonition is to love them in a larger and more comprehensive way because we are all one in Christ Jesus. This kind of love is indeed a Christian virtue!
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.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The widest thing in the universe is not space it is the potential capacity of the human heart. Being made in the image of God, it is capable of almost unlimited extension in all directions. And one of the world's greatest tragedies is that we allow our hearts to shrink until there is room in them for little besides ourselves.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
God has not bowed to our nervous haste nor embraced the methods of our machine age. The man who would know God must give time to Him.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The degree of blessing enjoyed by any man will correspond exactly with the completeness of God's victory over him.
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
We must meet the uncertainties of this world with the certainty of the world to come.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
History is little more than the story of man's sin, and the daily newspaper a running commentary on it.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
What is needed desperately today is prophetic insight. Scholars can interpret the past it takes prophets to interpret the present.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
What is wrong with Christians today is that we have the gifts of God but have forgotten the God of the gifts.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Anything God has ever done, he can do now. Anything God has ever done anywhere, he can do here. Anything God has ever done for anyone, he can do for you.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Any doctrine that makes the world your friend is not your friend.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
To escape the error of salvation by works we have fallen into the opposite error of salvation without obedience.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The meek man is not a human mouse afflicted with a sense of his own inferiority. He has accepted God's estimate of his own life: In himself, nothing In God, everything. He knows well that the world will never see him as God sees him and he has stopped caring.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
What God declares the believing heart confesses without the need of further proof. Indeed, to seek proof is to admit doubt, and to obtain proof is to render faith superfluous.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Christianity takes for granted the absence of any self-help and offers a power which is nothing less than the power of God.
