Oswald Chambers

The life of faith is not a life of mounting up with wings, but a life of walking and not fainting.
Oswald Chambers
Image
The prayer of the feeblest saint who lives in the Spirit and keeps right with God is a terror to Satan.

No wonder Satan tries to keep our minds fussy in active work till we cannot think in prayer.

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
Image
Let the consequences of your obedience be left up to God.
Oswald Chambers
