Seeing is never believing: we interpret what we see in the light of what we believe. Faith is confidence in God before you see God emerging, therefore the nature of faith is that it must be tried.

More quotes by Oswald Chambers
Eternal life is not a gift from God eternal life is the gift OF GOD.
Oswald Chambers
The real attitude of sin in the heart towards God is that of being without God it is pride, the worship of myself, that is the great atheistic fact in human life.
Oswald Chambers
The moment we recognize our complete weakness and our dependence upon Him will be the very moment that the Spirit of God will exhibit His power.
Oswald Chambers
There is always one fact more in every man's case about which we know nothing.
Oswald Chambers
Temptation is a suggested short cut to the realization of the highest at which I aim - not towards what I understand as evil, but towards what I understand as good.
Oswald Chambers
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
The test of a man’s religious life and character is not what he does in the exceptional moments of life, but what he does in the ordinary times, when there is nothing tremendous or exciting on. The worth of a man is revealed in his attitude to ordinary things when he is not before the footlights.
Oswald Chambers
Never consider whether you are of use but ever consider that you are not your own but His.
Oswald Chambers
A saint is never consciously a saint- a saint is consciously dependent on God.
Oswald Chambers
I cannot give up my will - I must exercise it, putting it into action.
Oswald Chambers
Worship is giving God the best that He has given you. Be careful what you do with the best you have, Whenever you get a blessing from God, give it back to Him as a love gift. Take time to meditate before God and offer the blessing back to Him in a deliberate act of worship.
Oswald Chambers
The nature of the spiritual life is that we are certain in our uncertainty.
Oswald Chambers
It is misleading to imagine that we are developed in spite of our circumstances, for we are developed because of them. It is mastery in circumstances that is needed, not mastery over them.
Oswald Chambers
A good book, in the language of the book-sellers, is a salable one in that of the curious, a scarce one in that of men of sense, a useful and instructive one.
Oswald Chambers
Living a life of faith means never knowing where you are being led - but it does mean loving and knowing the One who is leading. It is literally a life of FAITH, not of understanding and reason- - a life of knowing Him who calls us to go.
Oswald Chambers
The only right a Christian has is the right to give up his rights.
Oswald Chambers
Every God-given vision will become real if we will only have patience.
Oswald Chambers
When we touch the foundation of the reality of the good news of God, we will never bother Him anymore with little personal complaints.
Oswald Chambers
Grace is the overflowing favor of God, and you can always count on it being available to draw upon as needed.
Oswald Chambers
The greatest word of Jesus to His disciples is abandon
Oswald Chambers
