More quotes by Aiden Wilson Tozer
Self is the opaque veil that hides the Face of God from us. It can be removed only in spiritual experience, never by mere instruction.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
If we try to obey without faith, we get nowhere. If we try to have faith without obedience, it ends in nothing.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Grace is the good pleasure of God that inclines him to bestow benefits on the undeserving.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The victorious Christian neither exalts nor downgrades himself. His interests have shifted from self to Christ.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We're here to be worshipers first and workers only second. We take a convert and immediately make a worker out of him. God never meant it to be so. God meant that a convert should learn to be a worshiper, and after that he can learn to be a worker...The work done by a worshiper will have eternity in it.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The main thing is this: we should never blame anyone or anything for our defeats. No matter how evil their intentions may be, they are altogether unable to harm us until we begin to blame them and use them as excuses for our own unbelief.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The love of God is one of the great realities of the universe, a pillar upon which the hope of the world rests. But it is a personal, intimate thing too. God does not love populations, He loves people. He loves not masses, but men.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Whenever God begins something, we have the assurance that He will finish it. Nothing will stand in the way of Him accomplishing His purpose in this world and in our lives. What God starts, He finishes, and nobody can hinder Him. Sure, delays will happen. Just remember, God is in charge of the delays as well as the progress.

Worship is to feel in your heart and express in some appropriate manner a humbling but delightful sense of admiring awe and astonished wonder and overpowering love in the presence of that most Ancient Mystery, that Majesty which philosophers call the first cause, but which we call our Father which art in heaven.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
God wants us to know that when we have Him, we have everything.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We have full confidence in Jesus Christ. Our confidence rises as the character of God becomes greater and more trustworthy to our spiritual comprehension. The One with whom we deal is the One who embodies faithfulness and truth-the One who cannot lie.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The reason why many are still troubled, still seeking, still making little forward progress is because they haven't yet come to the end of themselves. We're still trying to give orders, and interfering with God's work within us.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The church that can't worship must be entertained. And leaders who can't lead a church to worship must provide the entertainment.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Many's very human habit of trusting in himself is generally the last great obstacle blocking his pathway to victory in Christian experience.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The church that is not jealously protected by mighty intercession and sacrificial labors will before long become the abode of every evil bird and the hiding place for unsuspected corruption. The creeping wilderness will soon take over that church that trusts in its own strength and forgets to watch and pray.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
For this reason the gravest question before the Church is always God Himself, and the most portentous fact about any man is not what he at a given time may say or do, but what he is his deep heart conceives God to be like.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Trying to be happy without a sense of God’s presence is like trying to have a bright day without the sun.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The complacency of Christians is the scandal of Christianity.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Faith is an organ of knowledge, and love an organ of experience.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We understand and acknowledge that the Resurrection has placed a glorious crown upon all of Christ's sufferings!
