More quotes by Oswald Chambers
We do not pray at all until we are at our wits' end.
Oswald Chambers
But God is the God of our yesterdays, and He allows the memory of them to turn the past into a ministry of spiritual growth for our future. God reminds us of the past to protect us from a very shallow security in the present.
Oswald Chambers
Be exhausted for God, but remember that your supply comes from Him. 'All my fresh springs shall be in thee.'
Oswald Chambers
Humble yourself--it is a humbling experience to knock at God's door--you have to knock with the crucified thief. To him that knocketh, it shall be opened.
Oswald Chambers
If Jesus ever commanded us to do something that He was unable to equip us to accomplish, He would be a liar. And if we make our own inability a stumbling block or an excuse not to be obedient, it means that we are telling God that there is something which He has not yet taken into account.
Oswald Chambers
We must learn to tell ourselves the truth on the basis of God’s Word.
Oswald Chambers
God works this unspeakable mystery of entire sanctification in your life and mine. People try to seek the experience of entire sanctification in ways other than God's way but the wonderful Spirit of God will remove confusion and enable us to see that the only means to obtain the experience of entire sanctification by faith is the grace of God.
Oswald Chambers
God regenerates us and puts us in contact with all his divine resources, but he cannot make us walk according to his will.
Oswald Chambers
Faith is unutterable trust in God, trust which never dreams that He will not stand by us.
Oswald Chambers
Trust completely in God, and when He brings you to a new opportunity of adventure, offering it to you, see that you take it.
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
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
Never consider whether you are of use but ever consider that you are not your own but His.
Oswald Chambers
Sincerity means that the appearance and the reality are exactly the same.
Oswald Chambers
Worship and intercession must go together, the one is impossible without the other. Intercession means that we rouse ourselves up to get the mind of Christ about the one for whom we pray.
Oswald Chambers
One of the most amazing revelations of God comes to us when we learn that it is in the everyday things of life that we realize the magnificent deity of Jesus Christ.
Oswald Chambers
See that you do not use the trick of prayer to cover up what you know you ought to do.
Oswald Chambers
The people who influence us most are not those who buttonhole us and talk to us, but those who live their lives like the stars in heaven and the lilies in the field, perfectly simply and unaffectedly. Those are the lives that mould
Oswald Chambers
A private relationship of worshiping God is the greatest essential element of spiritual fitness.
Oswald Chambers
The touchstone of the Holy Spirit’s work in us is the answer to our Lord’s question: “Who do men say that the Son of Man is?” Our Lord makes human destiny depend on that one thing, Who men say He is, because the revelation of Who Jesus is is only given by the Holy Spirit.
