More quotes by Aiden Wilson Tozer
We boast in the Lord but watch carefully that we never get caught depending on Him.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We know nothing like the divine holiness. It stands apart, unique, unapproachable, incomprehensibl e and unattainable... Holy is the way God is. To be holy He does not conform to a standard. He is that standard.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Any faith that does not command the one who holds it is not a real belief it is a pseudo belief only. And it might shock some of us profoundly if we were brought suddenly face to face with our beliefs and forced to test them in the fires of practical living.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Any doctrine that makes the world your friend is not your friend.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
If we possess nothing, God will allow us to have plenty.
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... The 'worship' growing out of such a view of life is as far off center as the view itself - a sort of sanctified nightclub without the champagne and the dressed-up drunks.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Let the average man be put to the proof on the question of who is above, and his true position will be exposed. Let him be forced into making a choice between God and money, between God and men, between God and personal ambition, God and self, God and human love, and God will take second place every time.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The more highly we think of ourselves-our abilities and talents-the less God can use us.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
If Jesus Christ isn't the central figure in our lives and in our churches, we're only fooling ourselves.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
What I cannot know by reason, I can know by simply believing.

...revivals (or any other spiritual gifts and graces) come only to those who want them badly enough. It may be said without qualification that every man is as holy and as full of the Spirit as he wants to be. He may not be as full as he wishes he were, but he is most certainly as full as he wants to be.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The veil of money has never been about how much money you have but about how much money has you.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
If I am to wholly follow the Lord Jesus Christ, I must forsake everything that is contrary to Him.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Teach us to know that we cannot know, for the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God. Let faith support us where reason fails, and we shall think because we believe, not in order that we may believe.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Distractions must be conquered or they will conquer us. So let us cultivate simplicity let us walk in the Spirit.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Until self-effacing men return again to spiritual leadership, we may expect a progressive deterioration in the quality of popular Christianity year after year till we reach the point where the grieved Holy Spirit withdraws - like the Shekinah from the temple.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Walking in humility isn't focusing on what we are NOT rather, it's declaring what God is.
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
Men may flee from the sunlight to dark and musty caves of the earth, but they cannot put out the sun. So men may in any dispensation despise the grace of God, but they cannot extinguish it.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We tend by a secret law of the soul to move toward our mental image of God.
