Image
Many of us suffer from temptations from which we have no business to suffer.
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
Never water down or minimise the mighty Gospel of God by considering that people may be misled by certain statements. Present the Gospel in all its fullness and God will guard His own truth.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Jesus Christ demands the same unrestrained, adventurous spirit in those who have placed their trust in Him that the natural man exhibits. If a person is ever going to do anything worthwhile, there will be times when he must risk everything by his leap in the dark.
Oswald Chambers
Image
When you are in the dark, listen, and God will give you a very precious message.
Oswald Chambers
Image
We are in danger of forgetting that we cannot do what God does, and that God will not do what we can do.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Today Jesus Christ is being dispatched as the Figurehead of a Religion, a mere example. He is that, but he is infinitely more He is salvation itself, He is the Gospel of God.
Oswald Chambers
Image
God saved us to make us holy, not happy. Some experiences may not contribute to our happiness, but all can be made to contribute to our holiness. Vance Havner The destined end of man is not happiness, nor health, but holiness. God's one aim is the production of saints.
Oswald Chambers
Image
If a man cannot prove his religion in the valley, it is not worth anything.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Prayer is not an exercise, it is the life.
Oswald Chambers
Image
If your faith is in experiences, anything that happens is likely to upset that faith.
Oswald Chambers
Image
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
Image
The true expression of Christian character is not in good-doing but in God-likeness.
Oswald Chambers
Image
The aim of the missionary is to do God's will, not to be useful, not to win the heathan he is useful and does win the heathen, but that is not his aim. His aim is to do the will of his Lord.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Prayer is the evidence that I am spiritually concentrated on God.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Drudgery is one of the finest touchstones of character there is. Drudgery is work that is very far removed from anything to do with the ideal - the utterly mean grubby things and when we come in contact with them we know instantly whether or not we are spiritually real.
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
Solitude with God repairs the damage done by the fret and noise and clamour of the world.
Oswald Chambers
Image
God makes us as broken bread and poured-out wine to please Him. Beware of competing calls once the call of God grips you.
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
