Oswald Chambers

God’s training is for now, not presently. His purpose is for this minute, not for something in the future. we have nothing to do with the afterwards of obedience we can get it wrong when we think of the afterwards. what men call training and preparation, God calls the end… if we realize that obedience is the end, then each moment is precious.

Can Jesus Christ see the agony of His soul in us? He can't unless we are so closely identified with Him that we have His view concerning the people for whom we pray. May we learn to intercede so wholeheartedly that Jesus Christ will be completely and overwhelmingly satisfied with us as intercessors.

Oswald Chambers
Image
We all know people who have been made much meaner and more irritable and more intolerable to live with by suffering: it is not right to say that all suffering perfects. It only perfects one type of person ...... the one who accepts the call of God in Christ Jesus.
Oswald Chambers

Eternal life is not a gift from God eternal life is the gift OF GOD.
Oswald Chambers

When you pray, things remain the same, but you begin to be different. The same thing when a man falls in love, his circumstances and conditions remain the same, but he has a sovereign preference in his heart for another person which transfigures everything!
Oswald Chambers
Image
There is always one fact more in every man's case about which we know nothing.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Our Lord’s teaching is always anti-self-realization. His purpose is not the development of a man His purpose is to make a man exactly like Himself, and the characteristic of the Son of God is self-expenditure.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Grace is the overflowing favor of God, and you can always count on it being available to draw upon as needed.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Love for the Lord is not an ethereal, intellectual, dreamlike thing it is the intensest, most vital, most passionate love of which the human heart is capable.

Image
An unguarded strength is a double weakness.
