More quotes by Aiden Wilson Tozer
God rescues us by breaking us, by shattering our strength and wiping out our resistance.
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
If you're not worshiping God on Monday the way you [did] the day before, perhaps you're not worshiping Him at all.

What then are we to do about our problems? We must learn to live with them until such time as God delivers us from them...we must pray for grace to endure them without murmuring. Problems patiently endured will work for our spiritual perfecting. They harm us only when we resist them or endure them unwillingly.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Where God and man are in relationship, this must be the ideal. God must be the communicator, and man must be in the listening, obeying attitude. If men and women are not willing to assume this listening attitude, there will be no meeting with God in living, personal experience.

God wants us to worship Him. He doesn't need us, for He couldn't be a self-sufficient God and need anything or anybody, but He wants us. When Adam sinned it was not he who cried, 'God, where art Thou?' It was God who cried, 'Adam, where art thou?'

Any faith that does not command the one who holds it is not a real belief it is a pseudo belief only. And it might shock some of us profoundly if we were brought suddenly face to face with our beliefs and forced to test them in the fires of practical living.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Faith is occupied with the Object upon which it rests and pays no attention to itself at all.
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
God never uses anyone greatly until He tests them deeply.

A true leader will have no desire to lord it over God’s heritage. He is rather ready to follow as well as lead.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The desire to fulfill the purpose for which we were created is a gift from God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
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'
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
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
Jesus is not one of many ways to approach God, nor is He the best of several ways He is the only way.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
As we come to the Bible, we can come with the holy anticipation of actually meeting with God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Wherever faith has eyes to see, there is a smiling presence of the Son of God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
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
Love is both a principle and an emotion it is something both felt and willed. It is capable of almost infinite degrees. Love in the human heart may begin so modestly as to be hardly perceptible and go on to become a raging torrent that sweeps its possessor before it in total helplessness.
