The neglected heart will soon be a heart overrun with worldly thoughts the neglected life will soon become a moral chaos.
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.

Our self-trust is such a subtle thing that it still comes around whispering to us even after we are sure it is gone.

True worship, worship that is pleasing to God, radiates throughout a person's entire life.

Is it ever possible to overdo the talking about the glory of Christ? Is it ever too often to be in God's presence?

When I am praying the most eloquently, I am getting the least accomplished in my prayer life.

Wherever faith has eyes to see, there is a smiling presence of the Son of God.

If you have to be reasoned into Christianity, some wise fellow can reason you out of it! If you come to Christ by a flash of the Holy Spirit so that by intuition you know that you are God's child, you know it by the text but you also know it by the inner light, the inner illumination of the Spirit, and no one can ever reason you out of it.

True religion is removed from diet and days, from garments and ceremonies, and placed where it belongs - in the union of the spirit of man with the Spirit of God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
I'm not afraid of the devil. The devil can handle me - he's got judo I never heard of. But he can't handle the One to whom I'm joined he can't handle the One to whom I'm united he can't handle the One whose nature dwells in my nature.

The idea that God will pardon a rebel who has not given up his rebellion is contrary both to the Scriptures and to common sense.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
One compromise here, another there and soon enough the so-called Christian and the man in the world look the same.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
When the eyes of the soul looking out meet the eyes of God looking in, heaven has begun right here on earth.

God's purpose in redemption is to make worshipers out of rebels.
