Sin is blatant mutiny against God.
Oswald Chambers
Image
The greatest competitor of devotion to Jesus is service to Him. It is never 'Do, do' with the Lord, but 'Be, be' and He will 'do' through you. The only way to keep true to God is by a steady persistent refusal to be interested in Christian work and to be interested alone in Jesus Christ.
Oswald Chambers
Image
The nature of faith is that it must be tried.
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
Image
Live in a constant state of expectancy, and leave room for God to come in as He decides.
Oswald Chambers
Image
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
Image
Abandonment to God is of more value than personal holiness!
Oswald Chambers
Image
Get into the habit of dealing with God about everything. Unless in the first waking moment of the day you learn to fling the door wide back and let God in, you will work on a wrong level all day but swing the door wide open and pray to your Father in secret, and every public thing will be stamped with the presence of God.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Whenever God touches sin it is independence that is touched, an that awakens resentment in the human heart. Independence must be blasted clean out, there must be no such thing left, only freedom which is very different. Freedom is the ability not to insist on my rights, but to see that God gets his
Oswald Chambers
Image
Never forget that our capacity and capability in spiritual matters is measured by, and based on, the promises of God.
Oswald Chambers
Image
If we are to be ready for Jesus Christ, we have to stop being religious (that is, using religion as a higher kind of culture) and be spiritually real.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Jesus Christ has undertaken by His redemption to put in me a heart so pure that God can see nothing to censure.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Discipleship is based solely on devotion to Jesus Christ, not on following after a particular belief or doctrine.
Oswald Chambers
Image
To be 'in the will of God' is not a matter of intellectual discernment, but a state of heart.
Oswald Chambers
Image
We shall find that the spheres God brings us into are not meant to teach us something but to make us something.
Oswald Chambers
Image
For one man who can introduce another to Jesus Christ by the way he lives and by the atmosphere of his life, there are a thousand who can only talk jargon about him
Oswald Chambers
Image
Certainty is the mark of the commonsense life-gracious uncertainty is the mark of the spiritual life.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Prayer is the answer to every problem there is.
Oswald Chambers
Image
God gives us the vision, then He takes us down to the valley to batter us into the shape of the vision, and it is in the valley that so many of us faint and give way. Every vision will be made real if we will have patience. Think of the enormous leisure of God! He is never in a hurry.
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.
