Worshipping God is the great essential of fitness. If you have not been worshipping...when you get to work you will not only be useless yourself, but a tremendous hindrance to those who are associated with you.

More quotes by Oswald Chambers

Image
Temptations in the life of faith are not accidents each temptation is part of a plan, a step in the progress of faith.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Christianity is not consistency to conscience or to convictions Christianity is being true to Jesus Christ.
Oswald Chambers
Image
We are not meant to be seen as God's perfect, bright-shining examples, but to be seen as the everyday essence of ordinary life exhibiting the miracle of His grace.
Oswald Chambers
Image
The path of peace for us is to hand ourselves over to God and ask Him to search us, not what we think we are, or what other people think we are, or what we persuade ourselves we are or would like to be, but 'Search me out, O God, explore me as I really am in Thy sight.'
Oswald Chambers
Image
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
Image
Sin is blatant mutiny against God, and either sin or God must die in my life.
Oswald Chambers
Image
All our fret and worry is caused by calculating without God.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Never water down or minimise the mighty Gospel of God by considering that people may be misled by certain statements. Present the Gospel in all its fullness and God will guard His own truth.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Every time we pray our horizon is altered, our attitude to things is altered, not sometimes but every time, and the amazing thing is that we don't pray more.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Perseverance is more than endurance. It is endurance combined with absolute assurance and certainty that what we are looking for is going to happen.
Oswald Chambers
Image
To identify with the death of Jesus Christ means that we must die to everything that was never a part of Him.
Oswald Chambers
Image
When you fear God you fear nothing else!
Oswald Chambers
Image
The greatest need we have is not to do things, but to believe things.
Oswald Chambers
Image
It is not what a man does that is of final importance, but what he is in what he does. The atmosphere produced by a man, much more than his activities, has the lasting influence.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Isaiah was so attuned to God, because of the great crisis he had just endured, that the call of God penetrated his soul. The majority of us cannot hear anything but ourselves. And we cannot hear anything God says. But to be brought to the place where we can hear the call of God is to be profoundly changed.
Oswald Chambers
Image
The true expression of Christian character is not in good-doing but in God-likeness.
Oswald Chambers
Image
We must build our faith not on fading lights but on the Light that never fails.
Oswald Chambers
Image
As Christians we are not out for our own cause at all, we are out for the cause of God, which can never be our cause. We do not know what God is after, but we have to maintain our relationship with Him whatever happens.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Our Lord never lays down the conditions of discipleship as the conditions of salvation.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Prayer is the vital breath of the Christian not the thing that makes him alive, but the evidence that he is alive.
Oswald Chambers
