It is impossible to live the life of a disciple without definite times of secret prayer. You will find that the place to enter in is in your business, as you walk along the streets, in the ordinary ways of life, when no one dreams you are praying, and the reward comes openly, a revival here, a blessing there.
Oswald Chambers
Image
It must be God first, God second, and God third
Oswald Chambers

Prayer is not only asking, it is an attitude of heart that produces an atmosphere in which asking is perfectly natural, and Jesus says, every one that asketh receiveth.
Oswald Chambers
Image
When you have learned to walk in the light of the Lord, bitterness and contention are impossible.
Oswald Chambers
