Image
Fretting springs from a determination to get our own way.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Having the reality of God's presence is not dependent on our being in a particular circumstance or place, but is only dependent on our determination to keep the Lord before us continually.
Oswald Chambers
Image
God has one destined end for mankind - holiness! His one aim is the production of saints. God is not an eternal blessing-machine for men. He did not come to save men out of pity. He came to save men because He had created them to be holy.
Oswald Chambers
Image
God never fits His word to suit me He fits me to suit His word.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Be exhausted for God, but remember that your supply comes from Him. 'All my fresh springs shall be in thee.'
Oswald Chambers
Image
When a man’s heart is right with God the mysterious utterances of the Bible are spirit and life to him. Spiritual truth is discernible only to a pure heart, not to a keen intellect. It is not a question of profundity of intellect, but of purity of heart.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Adam was created to be the friend and companion of God, he was to have dominion over all the life in the air and earth and sea, but one thing he was not to have dominion over, and that was himself.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Prayer is the way the life of God is nourished.
Oswald Chambers
Image
God never gives strength for tomorrow, or for the next hour, but only for the strain of the minute.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Love for the Lord is not an ethereal, intellectual, dreamlike thing it is the intensest, most vital, most passionate love of which the human heart is capable.
Oswald Chambers
Image
We pray when there's nothing else we can do Jesus wants us to pray before we do anything at all.
Oswald Chambers
Image
By the supernatural miracle of God's grace I stand justified, not because I am sorry for my sin, not because I have repented, but because of what Jesus has done.
Oswald Chambers
Image
But the miracle of the redemptive reality of God is that the worst and the vilest offender can never exhaust the depths of His love.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Be relentless and hard on yourself if you are in the habit of talking about the experiences you have had. Faith based on experience is not faith faith based on God’s revealed truth is the only faith there is.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Jesus said, 'Go ... and make disciples,' not converts to your opinions.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Our Lord’s making of a disciple is supernatural. He does not build on any natural capacity of ours at all. God does not ask us to do the things that are naturally easy for us- He only asks us to do the things that we are perfectly fit to do through His grace, and that is where the cross we must bear will always come.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Spiritual lust causes me to demand an answer from God, instead of seeking God Himself who gives the answer.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Solitude with God repairs the damage done by the fret and noise and clamour of the world.
Oswald Chambers
Image
The sympathy which is reverent with what it cannot understand is worth its weight in gold.
Oswald Chambers
Image
The people who influence us are those who have stood unconsciously for the right thing. They are like the stars and the lilies, and the joy of God flows through them all the time.
Oswald Chambers
