The man who has been taught by the Holy Spirit will be a seer rather than a scholar. The difference is that the scholar sees and the seer sees through and that is a mighty difference indeed.

More quotes by Aiden Wilson Tozer
All great Christians have been wounded souls.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
To be right with God has often meant to be in trouble with men. This is such a common truth that one hesitates to mention it, yet it appears to have been overlooked by the majority of Christians today.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Lord, how great is our dilemma! In Thy Presence silence best becomes us, yet love inflames our hearts and constrains us to speak.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Religion is interested primarily in the One who is the source of all things, the master of every phenomenon.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
To understand a Bible text it takes an act of the Holy Spirit equal to the act that inspired the text in the first place. A revelation of the Holy Spirit in one glorious flash of inward illumination would teach you more of Jesus than five years in a theological seminary.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The victorious Christian neither exalts nor downgrades himself. His interests have shifted from self to Christ. What he is or is not no longer concerns him. He believes that he has been crucified with Christ and he is not willing either to praise or deprecate such a man.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
And what kind of habitation pleases God? What must our natures be like before he can feel at home within us? He asks nothing but a pure heart and a single mind. He asks no rich paneling, no rugs from the Orient, no art treasures from afar. He desires but sincerity, transparency, humility, and love. He will see to the rest.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
What is wrong with Christians today is that we have the gifts of God but have forgotten the God of the gifts.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Nothing bothers the devil more than a Christian delighting in God’s presence.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The author squares man's depravity with still being made in the image of God with this word picture. A vase that has held beautiful roses though now broken, will nevertheless hold something of the fragrance it once contained.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We should discipline ourselves to read the Word until it comes alive...until we can almost feel the breath of God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
I contend that whatever does not raise the moral standard of the church or community has been a revival from God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
It is time for us to seek again the leadership of the Holy Spirit. Man's lordship has cost us too much.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
What we think about when we are free to think about what we will – that is what we are or will soon become.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
When God brings all things to light, you will discover just how significant you've been in God's plan.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
No matter what the circumstances, we Christians should keep our heads. God has not given us the spirit of fear, but of power, of love and of a sound mind. It is a dismal thing to see a son of heaven cringe in terror before the sons of earth.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The essence of surrender is getting out of God's way so that He can do in us what He also wants to do through us.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
It is altogether doubtful whether any man can be saved who comes to Christ for His help with no intention to obey Him.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Wherever we turn in the church of God, there is Jesus. He is the beginning, middle and end of everything to us.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
When I am praying the most eloquently, I am getting the least accomplished in my prayer life. But when I stop getting eloquent and give God less theology and shut up and just gaze upward and wait for God to speak to my heart He speaks with such power that I have to grab a pencil and a notebook and take notes on what God is saying to my heart.
