The purpose of prayer is to reveal the presence of God equally present, all the time, in every condition.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Am I always in contact with Reality, or do I only pray when things have gone wrong, when there is a disturbance in the moments of my life?
Oswald Chambers
Image
There is no need to get to a place of prayer pray wherever you are.
Oswald Chambers
Image
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.
Oswald Chambers

Oswald Chambers
Image
So long as there is a human being who does not know Jesus Christ, I am his debtor to serve him until he does.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Never allow anything to divert you from your insight into Jesus Christ. It is the true test of whether you are spiritual or not. To be unspiritual means that other things have a growing fascination for you. Since mine eyes have looked on Jesus, I’ve lost sight of all beside, So enchained my spirit’s vision, Gazing on the Crucified.
Oswald Chambers

Never allow anything that divides or destroys the oneness of your life with Christ to remain in your life without facing it.
Oswald Chambers
Image
The touchstone of the Holy Spirit’s work in us is the answer to our Lord’s question: “Who do men say that the Son of Man is?” Our Lord makes human destiny depend on that one thing, Who men say He is, because the revelation of Who Jesus is is only given by the Holy Spirit.

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
To identify with the death of Jesus Christ means that we must die to everything that was never a part of Him.
Oswald Chambers

Reflected peace is the proof that you are right with God because you are at liberty to turn your mind to Him.

It is a life of FAITH, not of intellect and reason, but a life of knowing Who makes us “go.
