The vision that God gives is not some unattainable castle in the sky, but a vision of what God wants you to be down here.

More quotes by Oswald Chambers
Remember Whose you are and Whom you serve.
Oswald Chambers
We read some things in the Bible three hundred and sixty-five times and they mean nothing to us, then all of a sudden we see what God means, because in some particular we have obeyed God, and instantly His nature is opened up.
Oswald Chambers
A hypocrite is one who plays two parts consciously for his own ends. When we find fault with other people we may be quite sincere, and yet Jesus says in reality we are frauds.
Oswald Chambers
When someone thinks that to develop a holy life he must always be alone with God, he is no longer of any use to others.
Oswald Chambers
Jesus Christ reveals, not an embarrassed God, not a confused God, not a God who stands apart from the problems, but One who stands in the thick of the whole thing with man.
Oswald Chambers
God will never reveal more truth about himself until you have obeyed what you know already
Oswald Chambers
All that Our Lord heeds in a man's life is the relationship of worth to His Father.
Oswald Chambers
God can do nothing for me until I recognize the limits of what is humanly possible, allowing Him to do the impossible.
Oswald Chambers
Our circumstances are the means God uses to exhibit just how wonderfully perfect and extraordinarily pure His Son is.
Oswald Chambers
Sanctification is not my idea of what I want God to do for me sanctification is God’s idea of what He wants to do for me.
Oswald Chambers
Can Jesus Christ see the agony of His soul in us? He can't unless we are so closely identified with Him that we have His view concerning the people for whom we pray. May we learn to intercede so wholeheartedly that Jesus Christ will be completely and overwhelmingly satisfied with us as intercessors.
Oswald Chambers
Never look for right in the other man, but never cease to be right yourself. We always look for justice in this world, but there is no such thing as justice. Jesus says — Never look for justice, but never cease to give it.
Oswald Chambers
Never water down the Word of God, but preach it in its undiluted sternness. There must be unflinching faithfulness to the Word of God, but when you come to personal dealings with others, remember who you are- you are not some special being created in heaven, but a sinner saved by grace.
Oswald Chambers
We think of prayer as a preparation for work, or a calm after having done work, whereas prayer is the essential work.
Oswald Chambers
Our true character comes out in the way we pray.
Oswald Chambers
The characteristic of the new birth is that I yield myself so completely to God that Christ is formed in me.
Oswald Chambers
The greatest word of Jesus to His disciples is abandon
Oswald Chambers
Once we see Jesus, the impossible things He does in our lives become as natural as breathing.
Oswald Chambers
If we are abandoned to Jesus we have no ends of our own to serve.
Oswald Chambers
When you are insulted, you must not only not resent it, but you must make it an opportunity to exhibit the Son of God in your life. And you cannot imitate the nature of Jesus-it is either in you or it is not. A personal insult becomes an opportunity for a saint to reveal the incredible sweetness of the Lord Jesus.
