Spend plenty of time with God let other things go, but don't neglect Him. We are not here to do work for God, we are here to be workers with Him, those through whom He can do His work.

More quotes by Oswald Chambers
The historic idea that the devil tempts men had this remarkable effect, it produced the man of iron who fought the modern idea of blaming his heredity or his circumstances produces the man who gives in at once.
Oswald Chambers
God does not further our spiritual life in spite of our circumstances, but in and by our circumstances.
Oswald Chambers
Faith is unutterable trust in God, trust which never dreams that He will not stand by us.
Oswald Chambers
We preach to men as if they were conscious they were dying sinners, they are not they are having a good time.
Oswald Chambers
No matter what changes God has performed in you, never rely on them. Build only on a Person, the Lord Jesus Christ, and on the Spirit He gives.
Oswald Chambers
Our true character comes out in the way we pray.
Oswald Chambers
Am I prepared to let God grip me by His power and do a work in me that is worthy of Himself? Sanctification is not my idea of what I want God to do for me sanctification is God's idea of what He wants to do for me, and He has to get me into the attitude of mind and spirit where at any cost I will let Him sanctify me wholly.
Oswald Chambers
God will never reveal more truth about himself until you have obeyed what you know already
Oswald Chambers
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
Too often we treat prayer as the preparation for the work of the church. Do you not see? Prayer IS the work of the church.
Oswald Chambers
The expression of Christian character is not good doing, but God-likeness. If the Spirit of God has transformed you within, you will exhibit Divine characteristics in your life, not good human characteristics . God's life in us expresses itself as God's life, not as human life trying to be godly.
Oswald Chambers
God plants His saints in the most useless places. We say, 'God intends me to be here because I am so useful.' Jesus never estimated His life along the line of the greatest use. God puts His saints where they will glorify Him, and we are no judge at all of where that is.
Oswald Chambers
The prayer of the feeblest saint who lives in the Spirit and keeps right with God is a terror to Satan. The very powers of darkness are paralyzed by prayer no spiritualistic seance can succeed in the presence of a humble praying saint. No wonder Satan tries to keep our minds fussy in active work till we cannot think in prayer.
Oswald Chambers
Beware of bartering the Word of God for a more suitable conception of your own.
Oswald Chambers
If ever we are going to be made into wine, we will have to be crushed you cannot drink grapes. Grapes become wine only when they have been squeezed. I wonder what kind of finger and thumb God has been using to squeeze you, and you have been like a marble and escaped?
Oswald Chambers
The emphasis to-day is being put on the fact that we have to save men we have not. We have to exalt the Saviour Who saves men, and then make disciples in His Name.
Oswald Chambers
Leave the Irreparable Past in His hands, and step out into the Irresistible Future with Him.
Oswald Chambers
If in preaching the gospel you substitute your knowledge of the way of salvation for confidence in the power of the gospel, you hinder people from getting to reality.
Oswald Chambers
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
Every God-given vision will become real if we will only have patience.
Oswald Chambers
