More quotes by Aiden Wilson Tozer
God's mercy is boundless, free and, through Jesus Christ our Lord, available to us now in our present situation.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
If we insist upon trying to imagine Him, we end with an idol, made not with hands but with thoughts and an idol of the mind is as offensive to God as an idol of the hand.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
True and absolute freedom is only found in the presence of God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Real faith never disappoints because it is in God, grounded on His character, promises, covenant and oath.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Such words as amen, hallelujah, glory and others of like sacred association are repeated endlessly and meaninglessly in the apparent belief that they have in them some strange power for good. This can be no more than high-grade magic. It will pay us to search our own hearts thoroughly to discover just why we use these words.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
What's closest to your heart is what you talk about, and if God is close to your heart, you'll talk about Him.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Coming before God in quietness & waiting upon Him in silence often can accomplish more than days of feverish activity.
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
The notion that the careless sinner is the smart fellow and the serious-minded Christian, though well-intentioned, is a stupid dolt altogether out of touch with life will not stand up under scrutiny. Sin is basically an act of moral folly, and the greater the folly the greater the fool.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Holy is the way God is. To be holy He does not conform to a standard. He IS that standard.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Christians must understand most emphatically that the world around us is in conflict with the Word within us.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We please God most, not by frantically trying to make ourselves good, but by throwing ourselves into His arms.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
To desire revival...and at the same time to neglect(personal) prayer and devotion is to wish one way and walk another.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
It's not what you did, but what you could have done if you allowed the Lord to work His will in your life.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
What is of man uses manipulation to conform. What is of #God uses implantation to transform.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
There is scarcely anything so dull and meaningless as Bible doctrine taught for its own sake. Truth divorced from life is not truth in its Biblical sense, but something else and something less.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
God formed us for His pleasure, and so formed us that we as well as He can in divine communion enjoy the sweet and mysterious mingling of kindred personalities. He meant us to see Him and live with Him and draw our life from His smile.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
If a man has only correct doctrine to offer me, I am sure to slip out at the first intermission to seek the company of someone who has seen for himself how lovely is the face of Him who is the Rose of Sharon and the Lily of the Valley. Such a man can help me, and no one else can.
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
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.
