More quotes by Aiden Wilson Tozer
Without doubt, the mightiest thought the mind can entertain is the thought of God, and the weightest word in any language is its word for God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
It is because of the hasty and superficial conversation with God that the sense of sin is so weak and that no motives have power to help you to hate and flee from sin as you should.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
No one need fear to listen to the voice of God unless he has already made up his mind to resist it.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Left to ourselves we tend immediately to reduce God to manageable terms.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The most dangerous trap is just living and forgetting that God exists.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The idea that the Man Christ Jesus has absolute and final authority over the whole church and over all of its members in every detail of their lives is simply not now accepted as true by the rank and file of evangelical Christians
Aiden Wilson Tozer
God does not stop at rescuing us the purpose of that rescue is to enjoy fellowship with us.

May not the inadequacy of much of our spiritual experience be traced back to our habit of skipping through the corridors of the Kingdom like children in the market place, chattering about everything, but pausing to learn the value of nothing.
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
We fear extremes and shy away from too much ardor in religion as if it were possible to have too much love or too much faith or too much holiness.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
There are two classes of Christians: the proud who imagine they are humble and the humble who are afraid they are proud. There should be another class: the self-forgetful who leave the whole thing in the hands of Christ and refuse to waste any time trying to make themselves good. They will reach the goal far ahead of the rest.

We can be in our day what the heroes of faith were in their day - but remember at the time they didn't know they were heroes.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Our identification with Christ should be that whatever He is we also want to become.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We desperately need seers who can see through the mist- Christian leaders with prophetic vision. Unless they come soon it will be too late for this generation. And if they do come we will no doubt crucify a few of them in the name of our worldly orthodoxy.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The most critical need of the church at this moment is men, bold men, free men. The church must seek, in prayer and much humility, the coming again of men made of the stuff of which prophets and martyrs are made.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
It requires a serious mind and a determined heart to pray past the ordinary into the unusual.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
A low view of God is the cause of a hundred lesser evils. A high view of God is the solution to ten thousand temporal problems.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
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.
