I wish that we might get back to worship again. Then when people come into the church they will instantly sense that they have come among holy people, God's people. They can testify, 'Of a truth God is in this place'

More quotes by Aiden Wilson Tozer
God created our souls to be satisfied only with the divine everlastingness of the Word made flesh.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Nothing twists and deforms the soul more than a low or unworthy conception of God
Aiden Wilson Tozer
To regain her lost power the Church must see heaven opened and have a transforming vision of God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Modern civilization is so complex as to make the devotional life all but impossible. It wears us out by multiplying distractions and beats us down by destroying our solitude, where otherwise we might drink and renew our strength before going out to face the world again.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Any belief that does not command the one who holds it is not a real belief it is a pseudo belief only.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Before there can be fullness there must be emptiness. Before God can fill us with Himself we must first be emptied of ourselves.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
No man gives anything acceptable to God until has has first given himself in love and sacrifice.

What do we value most? What would we most hate to lose? What do our thoughts turn to most frequently when we are free to think of what we will? And finally, what affords us the greatest pleasure?

There has been grave error. I do not mean so much error of doctrine as error of emphasis.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We are here to affirm, not to deny... when we affirm all that is God, all that is not God is automatically denied.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
To have found God and still to pursue Him is the soul's paradox of love, scorned indeed by the too-easily-satisfied religionist, but justified in happy experience by the children of the burning heart.

A satisfying prayer life elevates and purifies every act of body and mind and integrates the entire personality into a single spiritual unit. In the long pull we pray only as well as we live.

What is wisdom? It is the skill to achieve the perfect means by the perfect ends
Aiden Wilson Tozer
You are a mirror of the Almighty...this is the reason you were created...your purpose.

...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.

A Christian should put away all defense and make no attempt to excuse himself either in his own eyes or before the Lord. Whoever defends himself will have himself for his defense, and he will have no other. But let him come defenseless before the Lord and he will have for his defender no less than God Himself.

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.

The Bible is not an end in itself, but a means to bring men to an intimate and satisfying knowledge of God.

When the Holy Spirit is in full control of our lives, He will expect our obedience to the written Word of God. But it is part of our human problem that we would like to be full of the Spirit and yet go on and do as we please!

If you have to be reasoned into Christianity, some wise fellow can reason you out of it! If you come to Christ by a flash of the Holy Spirit so that by intuition you know that you are God's child, you know it by the text but you also know it by the inner light, the inner illumination of the Spirit, and no one can ever reason you out of it.
