Quote

Never look for right in the other man, but never cease to be right yourself. We always look for justice in this world, but there is no such thing as justice. Jesus says — Never look for justice, but never cease to give it.

Worship is giving God the best that He has given you. Be careful what you do with the best you have, Whenever you get a blessing from God, give it back to Him as a love gift. Take time to meditate before God and offer the blessing back to Him in a deliberate act of worship.
Oswald Chambers
Image
We think of prayer as a preparation for work, or a calm after having done work, whereas prayer is the essential work.
Oswald Chambers
Image
But the miracle of the redemptive reality of God is that the worst and the vilest offender can never exhaust the depths of His love.
Oswald Chambers
Image
God does not further our spiritual life in spite of our circumstances, but in and by our circumstances.
Oswald Chambers
Image
All that Our Lord heeds in a man's life is the relationship of worth to His Father.
Oswald Chambers
Image
The most important aspect of Christianity is not the work we do, but the relationship we maintain and the surrounding influence and qualities produced by that relationship. That is all God asks us to give our attention to, and it is the one thing that is continually under attack.
Oswald Chambers
Image
It is a great thing to see physical courage, and greater still to see moral courage, but the greatest to see of all is spiritual courage oh, to see a person who will stand true to the integrity of Jesus Christ no matter what he or she goes through!
Oswald Chambers

Prayer is simple, prayer is supernatural, and to anyone not related to our Lord Jesus Christ, prayer is apt to look stupid.
Oswald Chambers

Keep your life so constantly in touch with God that His surprising power can break through at any point.
Oswald Chambers
Image
We should always choose our books as God chooses our friends, just a bit beyond us, so that we have to do our level best to keep up with them.
Oswald Chambers
Image
I have to learn that the aim in life is God's, not mine. God is using me from His great personal standpoint, and all He asks of me is that I trust Him, and never say — Lord, this gives me such heart-ache.
Oswald Chambers
Image
It is easy to turn our religious life into a cathedral for beautiful memories, but there are feet to be washed . . .
Oswald Chambers
Image
Complete weakness and dependence will always be the occasion for the Spirit of God to manifest His power.
Oswald Chambers
Image
When once you realize all that it cost God to forgive you, you will be held as in a vice, constrained by the love of God.
Oswald Chambers
Image
I cannot give up my will - I must exercise it, putting it into action.
Oswald Chambers
Image
The best measure of a spiritual life is not its ecstasies but its obedience.
Oswald Chambers
Image
We are in danger of being stern where God is tender, and of being tender where God is stern.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Living a life of faith means never knowing where you are being led - but it does mean loving and knowing the One who is leading. It is literally a life of FAITH, not of understanding and reason- - a life of knowing Him who calls us to go.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Sin is blatant mutiny against God, and either sin or God must die in my life.
Oswald Chambers

Don't forget to pray today because God did not forget to wake you up this morning.
