More quotes by Oswald Chambers

Image
The whole meaning of prayer is that we may know God.
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
Never look for justice in this world, never cease to give it.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Our work begins where God's grace has laid the foundation we are not to save souls, but to disciple them.
Oswald Chambers
Image
in the will of God is not a matter of intellectual discernment, but a state of heart... It's motto is -- My Father can do what he likes with me, He may bless me to death, or give me a bitter cup I delight to do His will.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Our Lord's conception of discipleship is not that we work for God, but that God works through us.

God does not expect us to imitate Jesus Christ He expects us to allow the life of Jesus to be manifested in our moral flesh.
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
The one thing that remains is looking in the face of God for ourselves.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Every element of our own self-reliance must be put to death by the power of God.
Oswald Chambers
Image
It is impossible to get exhausted in work for God. We get exhausted because we try to do God's work in our own way.
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
We have no right to judge where we should be put, or to have preconceived notions as to what God is fitting us for. God engineers everything wherever He puts us, our one great aim is to pour out a whole-hearted devotion to Him in that particular work. 'Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might.'
Oswald Chambers
Image
God works this unspeakable mystery of entire sanctification in your life and mine. People try to seek the experience of entire sanctification in ways other than God's way but the wonderful Spirit of God will remove confusion and enable us to see that the only means to obtain the experience of entire sanctification by faith is the grace of God.
Oswald Chambers
Image
By the supernatural miracle of God's grace I stand justified, not because I am sorry for my sin, not because I have repented, but because of what Jesus has done.
Oswald Chambers
