Oswald Chambers
We tend to use prayer as a last resort, but God wants it to be our first line of defense.
Oswald Chambers
God places His saints where they will bring the most glory to Him, and we are totally incapable of judging where that may be.
Oswald Chambers
The Christian life is one of spiritual courage and determination lived out in our flesh
Oswald Chambers
The greatest word of Jesus to His disciples is abandon
Oswald Chambers
The greatest need we have is not to do things, but to believe things.
