More quotes by Oswald Chambers
God cannot reveal anything to us if we have not His spirit.
Oswald Chambers
Beware of making a fetish of consistency to your convictions instead of being devoted to God.
Oswald Chambers
The battle is lost or won in the secret places of the will before God, never first in the external world.
Oswald Chambers
The moment we recognize our complete weakness and our dependence upon Him will be the very moment that the Spirit of God will exhibit His power.
Oswald Chambers
Adam was created to be the friend and companion of God, he was to have dominion over all the life in the air and earth and sea, but one thing he was not to have dominion over, and that was himself.
Oswald Chambers
Jesus Christ demands the same unrestrained, adventurous spirit in those who have placed their trust in Him that the natural man exhibits. If a person is ever going to do anything worthwhile, there will be times when he must risk everything by his leap in the dark.
Oswald Chambers
At times God puts us through the discipline of darkness to teach us to heed Him. Song birds are taught to sing in the dark, and we are put into the shadow of God’s hand until we learn to hear Him.
Oswald Chambers
We must keep ourselves in touch, not with theories, but with people. We must never get out of touch with them if we are going to use the Word of God skillfully amongst them and if the Holy Spirit is to apply the Word of God through us.
Oswald Chambers
Self pity is of the devil, and if I wallow in it, I cannot be used by God for his purpose in the world.
Oswald Chambers
It is a tremendous freedom to get rid of all self-considerat ion and learn to care about only one thing-the relationship between Christ and ourselves.
Oswald Chambers
Measure your growth in grace by your sensitiveness to sin.
Oswald Chambers
Sorrow burns up a great amount of shallowness.
Oswald Chambers
All that Our Lord heeds in a man's life is the relationship of worth to His Father.
Oswald Chambers
Prayer is the way the life of God is nourished.
Oswald Chambers
Angels cannot preach the gospel, only beings such as Paul and you and I can preach the gospel.
Oswald Chambers
If we are obsessed by God, nothing else can get into our lives - not concerns, nor tribulation, not worries.
Oswald Chambers
When a man gets to despair he knows that all his thinking will never get him out. He will only get out by the sheer creative effort of God. Consequently he is in the right attitude to receive from God that which he cannot gain for himself.
Oswald Chambers
Not often, but every once in a while, God brings us to a major turning point — a great crossroads in our life.
Oswald Chambers
For one man who can introduce another to Jesus Christ by the way he lives and by the atmosphere of his life, there are a thousand who can only talk jargon about him
Oswald Chambers
The only way we can be of use to God is to let Him take us through the crooks and crannies of our own characters.
Oswald Chambers
