More quotes by Aiden Wilson Tozer
We're here to be worshipers first and workers only second. We take a convert and immediately make a worker out of him. God never meant it to be so. God meant that a convert should learn to be a worshiper, and after that he can learn to be a worker...The work done by a worshiper will have eternity in it.

The only Christian you want to listen to is the one who gives you more of a hunger for God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The basic trouble with the church today is her unworthy concept of God... Our religion is weak because our God is weak... Christianity at any given time is strong or weak depending on her concept of God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
All great Christians have been wounded souls.

Complacency is the deadly enemy of spiritual progress. The contented soul is the stagnant soul.

We must invite the Cross to do its deadly work within before we can be free.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The only cross in all of history that was turned into an altar was the cross on which Jesus Christ died. It was a Roman cross. They nailed Him on it, and God, in His majesty and mystery, turned it into an altar. The Lamb who was dying in the mystery and wonder of God was turned into the Priest who offered Himself. No one else was a worthy offering.

Yes, worship of the loving God is man's whole reason for existence.

Regret for a sinful past will remain until we truly believe that for us in Christ that sinful past no longer exists.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
I want the presence of God Himself, or I don't want anything at all to do with religion... I want all that God has or I don't want any.

Christians don't tell lies they just go to church and sing them.

...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.

God desires and is pleased to communicate with us through the avenues of our minds, our wills, and our emotions. The continuous and unembarrassed interchange of love and thought between God and the souls of the redeemed men and women is the throbbing heart of the New Testament.

Holiness has nothing to do with what we know and everything to do with Who we know.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Have you noticed how much praying for revival has been going on of late - and how little revival has resulted? I believe the problem is that we have been trying to substitute praying for obeying, and it simply will not work.

God did not write a book and send it by messenger to be read at a distance by unaided minds. He spoke a Book and lives in His spoken words, constantly speaking His words and causing the power of them to persist across the years.

We are too quick to live this life and forget that there is another world to come...this is not the end.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Only after all the noise has spent itself do we begin to hear in the silence of our heart, the still, small, mighty voice of God.

It appears that too many Christians want to enjoy the thrill of feeling right but are not willing to endure the inconvenience of being right.

The devil loves it when we say we believe then prioritize everything in our lives ahead of God.
