More quotes by Oswald Chambers
The spirit of God has the habit of taking the words of Jesus out of their scriptural setting and putting them into the setting of our personal lives.
Oswald Chambers
See that you do not use the trick of prayer to cover up what you know you ought to do.
Oswald Chambers
We have an idea that God is leading us to a particular end, a desired goal He is not...What we call the process God calls the end. His purpose is that I depend on Him and His power NOW. It is the process, not the end that is glorifying to God.
Oswald Chambers
The one thing for which we are all being disciplined is to know that God is real. As soon as God becomes real, other people become shadows. Nothing that other saints do or say can ever perturb the one who is built on God.
Oswald Chambers
One of the greatest strains in life is the strain of waiting for God.
Oswald Chambers
There is only one way by which I can get right with God, and that is through the death of Jesus Christ. I must get rid of the underlying idea that I can ever be right with God because of my obedience. Who of us could ever obey God to absolute perfection!
Oswald Chambers
We are not made for the mountains, for sunrises, or for the other beautiful attractions in life - those are simply intended to be moments of inspiration. We are made for the valley and the ordinary things of life and that is where we have to prove our stamina and strength.
Oswald Chambers
The secret of the missionary is...I am His, and He is carrying out His work through me.
Oswald Chambers
If we understood what happens when we use the Word of God, we would use it oftener.
Oswald Chambers
When it is a question of God's almighty Spirit, never say, 'I can't.'
Oswald Chambers
God's purpose is not to perfect me to make me a trophy in His showcase He is getting me to the place where He can use me. Let Him do what He wants.
Oswald Chambers
What a blessed habit I have found my prayer list, morning by morning, it takes me via the Throne of all Grace straight to the intimate personal heart of each one mentioned here, and I know that He Who is not prescribed by time and geography answers immediately.
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
It is a tremendous freedom to get rid of all self-considerat ion and learn to care about only one thing-the relationship between Christ and ourselves.
Oswald Chambers
Never be diplomatic and careful about the treasure God gives. This is poverty triumphant.
Oswald Chambers
If we are going to live as disciples of Jesus, we have to remember that all noble things are difficult.
Oswald Chambers
We look for visions of heaven and we never dream that all the time God is in the commonplace things and people around us.
Oswald Chambers
As we go forth into the coming year, let it not be in the haste of impetuous, forgetful delight, nor with the quickness of impulsive thoughtlessness . But let us go out with the patient power of knowing that the God of Israel will go before us.
Oswald Chambers
Measure your growth in grace by your sensitiveness to sin.
Oswald Chambers
Leave the Irreparable Past in His hands, and step out into the Irresistible Future with Him.
