More quotes by Aiden Wilson Tozer
But the sons of this world have not God they have only each other, and they walk holding to each other and looking to one another for assurance like frightened children.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
For myself, I long ago decided that I would rather know the truth than be happy in ignorance. If I can not have both truth and happiness, give me truth. We’ll have a long time to be happy in heaven.

The essence of idolatry is the entertainment of thoughts about God that are unworthy of Him. The heaviest obligation lying upon the Christian Church today is to purify and elevate her concept of God until it is once more worthy of Him.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We get the odd notion that God is showing mercy because Jesus died. No. Jesus died because God is showing mercy.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
For it is not mere words that nourish the soul, but God Himself, and unless and until the hearers find God in personal experience they are not the better for having heard the truth.

We must invite the Cross to do its deadly work within before we can be free.

It's hard to rest knowing that millions of people merely carry on religious traditions but don't actually reach God.

The Bible recognizes no faith that does not lead to obedience, nor does it recognize any obedience that does not spring from faith. The two are at opposite sides of the same coin.

God will speak to the hearts of those who prepare themselves to hear and conversely, those who do not so prepare themselves will hear nothing even though the Word of God is falling upon their outer ears every Sunday.

Faith is not in itself a meritorious act the merit is in the One to Whom it is directed.

Always God’s goodness is the ground of our expectation.

Let us practice the fine art of making every work a priestly ministration. Let us believe that God is in all our simple deeds and learn to find Him there.

Don't allow false modesty,doubts or unbelief prevent you from accepting God's favor. The door of mercy stands wide open.

O God and Father, I repent of my sinful preoccupation with visible things. The world has been too much with me. Thou hast been here and I knew it not. I have been blind to Thy Presence. Open my eyes that I may behold Thee in and around me. For Christ's sake, Amen.

It is a high Christian privilege to pray for one another within each local church body and then for other believers throughout the world. As a Christian minister, I have no right to preach to people I have not prayed for. That is my strong conviction.

Though the cross of Christ has been beautified by the poet and the artist, the avid seeker after God is likely to find it the same savage implement of destruction it was in the days of old. The way of the cross is still the pain-wracked path to spiritual power and fruitfulness.

Satan hates God for His own sake, and everything that is dear to God he hates for the very reason that God loves it.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The true Church has never sounded out public expectations before launching her mission. Her leaders heard from God, they knew their Lord's will and did it. Their people followed them - sometimes to triumph, oftener to insults and public persecution - and their sufficient reward was the satisfaction of being right in a wrong world!

Christians aren't finished products. We're God's sons and daughters in process.

Nothing should so occupy the mind of the Christian than discovering God each day.
