If a man cannot prove his religion in the valley, it is not worth anything.
Oswald Chambers
Image
The secret of Christian quietness is not indifference, but the knowledge that God is my Father, He loves me, and I shall never think of anything He will forget. With this knowledge, worry becomes an impossibility.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Faith is deliberate confidence in the character of God whose ways you cannot understand at the time.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Prayer is not an exercise, it is the life.
Oswald Chambers
Image
We say, sorrow, disaster, calamity. God says, chastening and it sounds sweet to him though it is a discord to our ears. Don't faint when you are rebuked, and don't despise the chastening of the Lord. In your patience possess your souls.
Oswald Chambers

Oswald Chambers
Image
The best measure of a spiritual life is not its ecstasies but its obedience.
Oswald Chambers

Oswald Chambers
Image
A river reaches places its source never knows.
Oswald Chambers
Image
When we say Thy will be done, do we say it with a sigh? If so, we have never realized that the character of God is holy love nothing can ever happen outside His purposeful will.
Oswald Chambers
Image
When God gives a vision, transact business on that line, no matter what it costs.
Oswald Chambers
Image
The Christian Church should not be a secret society of specialists, but a public manifestation of believers in Jesus.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Sanctification costs to the extent of an intense narrowing of all our interests on earth and an immense broadening of all our interests in God.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Never run before God gives you His direction. If you have the slightest doubt, then He is not guiding. Whenever there is doubt-wait.
Oswald Chambers
Image
There is nothing more certain in Time or Eternity than what Jesus Christ did on the Cross.
Oswald Chambers
