More quotes by Oswald Chambers
The greatest competitor of true devotion to Jesus is the service we do for Him. It is easier to serve than to pour out our lives completely for Him.
Oswald Chambers
It is easier to serve God without a vision, easier to work for God without a call, because then you are not bothered by what God requires common sense is your guide, veneered over with Christian sentiment. You will be more prosperous and successful, more leisure-hearted, if you never realize the call of God.
Oswald Chambers
Readiness for God means that we are ready to do the tiniest little thing or the great big thing, it makes no difference
Oswald Chambers
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
Be relentless and hard on yourself if you are in the habit of talking about the experiences you have had. Faith based on experience is not faith faith based on God’s revealed truth is the only faith there 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
A river reaches places its source never knows.
Oswald Chambers
Wherever there is any element of pride or of conceit, Jesus cannot expound a thing. He will take us through the disappointment of a wounded pride of intellect, through disappointment of heart. He will reveal inordinate affections-thin gs over which we never thought He would have to get us alone.
Oswald Chambers
It is perilously easy to have amazing sympathy with God's truth and remain in sin.
Oswald Chambers
I have learnt that I am me, that I can do the things that, as one might put it, me can do, but I cannot do the things that me would like to do.
Oswald Chambers
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.
Oswald Chambers
Our Lord did not say it was wrong to pray in the corners of the street, but He did say it was wrong to have the motive to be seen of men.
Oswald Chambers
Wait on God and He will work, but don't wait in spiritual sulks because you cannot see an inch in front of you! Are we detached enough from our spiritual hysterics to wait on God? To wait is not to sit with folded hands, but to learn to do what we are told.
Oswald Chambers
If God allows you to be stripped of the exterior portions of your life, He means for you to cultivate the interior
Oswald Chambers
The remarkable thing about God is that when you fear God, you fear nothing else, whereas if you do not fear God, you fear everything else.
Oswald Chambers
A heartless Christian must be a terrible grief to our Lord.
Oswald Chambers
Having the reality of God's presence is not dependent on our being in a particular circumstance or place, but is only dependent on our determination to keep the Lord before us continually.
Oswald Chambers
There is nothing more certain in Time or Eternity than what Jesus Christ did on the Cross.
Oswald Chambers
Repentance always brings a person to the point of saying, “I have sinned.” The surest sign that God is at work in his life is when he says that and means it. Anything less is simply sorrow for having made foolish mistakes-a reflex action caused by self-disgust.
Oswald Chambers
Never make the blunder of trying to forecast the way God is going to answer your prayer.
Oswald Chambers
