More quotes by Aiden Wilson Tozer
The way to deeper knowledge of God is through the lonely valleys of soul poverty and abnegation of all things. The blessed ones who possess the Kingdom are they who have repudiated every external thing and have rooted from their hearts all sense of possessing. These are the 'poor in spirit.'

Some people's lives would drastically change if they would obey God as strictly as they obey their doctors.

We are often hindered from giving up our treasures to the Lord out of fear for their safety this is especially true when those treasures are loved relatives and friends. But we need have no such fears. Our Lord came not to destroy but to save. Everything is safe which we commit to Him, and nothing is really safe which is not so committed.

Without worship, we go about miserable.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Because we have shut out the Holy Spirit in so many ways, we are stumbling along as though we are spiritually blindfolded.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
If we can trust the sufferings of Christ for our sake then we can trust Christ when we suffer for His sake.

Unselfish love does not exploit its object and it does not ask for anything in return.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
I want to live so fully in the Spirit that...every act of my life may be an act of worship.

Acquaint thyself with God.

Only the blood of Jesus can cleanse us, yet if we withhold ourselves from that blood, we will be unclean forever.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Faith never goes contrary to reason -- faith simply ignores reason and rises above it.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The doctrine of the Trinity...is truth for the heart. The fact that it can not be satisfactorily explained, instead of being against it, is in its favor. Such a truth had to be revealed no one could imagine it.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
For the Christian, humility is absolutely indispensable. Without it there can be no self-knowledge, no repentance, no faith and no salvation.
