Jesus Christ founded His Kingdom on the weakest link of all-a Baby.
Oswald Chambers
Image
We do not pray at all until we are at our wits' end.
Oswald Chambers
Image
It is better to enter into life maimed but lovely in God’s sight than to appear lovely to man’s eyes but lame to God’s.
Oswald Chambers
Image
A river reaches places its source never knows.
Oswald Chambers
Image
God's purpose is not to perfect me to make me a trophy in His showcase He is getting me to the place where He can use me. Let Him do what He wants.
Oswald Chambers
Image
We pray pious blether, our will is not in it, and then we say God does not answer we never asked Him for anything. Asking means that our wills are in what we ask.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Am I prepared to let God grip me by His power and do a work in me that is worthy of Himself? Sanctification is not my idea of what I want God to do for me sanctification is God's idea of what He wants to do for me, and He has to get me into the attitude of mind and spirit where at any cost I will let Him sanctify me wholly.
Oswald Chambers
Image
The remarkable thing about God is that when you fear God, you fear nothing else, whereas if you do not fear God, you fear everything else.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Wherever there is any element of pride or of conceit, Jesus cannot expound a thing. He will take us through the disappointment of a wounded pride of intellect, through disappointment of heart. He will reveal inordinate affections-thin gs over which we never thought He would have to get us alone.
Oswald Chambers
Image
We have to take the first step as though there were no God. It is no use to wait for God to help us, He will not: but immediately we arise we find He is there.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Doubt is not always a sign that a man is wrong it may be a sign that he is thinking.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Never say you will pray about a thing pray about it.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Our understanding of God is the answer to prayer getting things from God is God's indulgence of us. When God stops giving us things, He brings us into the place where we can begin to understand Him.
Oswald Chambers
Image
We are built for the valley, for the ordinary stuff we are in, and that is where we have to prove our mettle.
Oswald Chambers
Image
God has one destined end for mankind - holiness! His one aim is the production of saints. God is not an eternal blessing-machine for men. He did not come to save men out of pity. He came to save men because He had created them to be holy.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Discipleship is based solely on devotion to Jesus Christ, not on following after a particular belief or doctrine.
Oswald Chambers
Image
The life of faith is not a life of mounting up with wings, but a life of walking and not fainting.
Oswald Chambers
Image
God plants His saints in the most useless places. We say, 'God intends me to be here because I am so useful.' Jesus never estimated His life along the line of the greatest use. God puts His saints where they will glorify Him, and we are no judge at all of where that is.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Every God-given vision will become real if we will only have patience.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Never forget that our capacity and capability in spiritual matters is measured by, and based on, the promises of God.
