Image
We have to take the first step as though there were no God. It is no use to wait for God to help us, He will not: but immediately we arise we find He is there.
Oswald Chambers
Image
The love of God is not created- it is His nature.
Oswald Chambers
Image
The greatest competitor of devotion to Jesus is service to Him. It is never 'Do, do' with the Lord, but 'Be, be' and He will 'do' through you. The only way to keep true to God is by a steady persistent refusal to be interested in Christian work and to be interested alone in Jesus Christ.
Oswald Chambers
Image
All Christians have the Spirit of Christ, but not all Christians have the mind of Christ.
Oswald Chambers
Image
At His Ascension our Lord entered Heaven, and He keeps the door open for humanity to enter.
Oswald Chambers
Image
God is the Great Engineer, creating circumstances to bring about moments in our lives of divine importance, leading us to divine appointments
Oswald Chambers
Image
We are not built for ourselves, but for God. Not for service for God, but for God.
Oswald Chambers
Image
If ever we are going to be made into wine, we will have to be crushed you cannot drink grapes. Grapes become wine only when they have been squeezed. I wonder what kind of finger and thumb God has been using to squeeze you, and you have been like a marble and escaped?
Oswald Chambers
Image
Never try to help God fulfill His word.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Never become attached to anything that continues to hurt God. For you to be free of it, God must be allowed to hurt whatever it may be.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Do we so appreciate the marvelous salvation of Jesus Christ that we are our utmost for His highest?
Oswald Chambers
Image
Speak, Lord” make time to listen. Chastening is more than a means of discipline, it is meant to get me to the place of saying, “Speak, Lord.”
Oswald Chambers
Image
The one thing for which we are all being disciplined is to know that God is real. As soon as God becomes real, other people become shadows. Nothing that other saints do or say can ever perturb the one who is built on God.
Oswald Chambers
Image
The well of your incompleteness runs deep, but make the effort to look away from yourself and to look toward Him.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Is He going to help Himself to your life, or are you taken up with your conception of what you are going to do? God is responsible for our lives, and the one great keynote is reckless reliance upon Him.
Oswald Chambers
Image
God plants His saints in the most useless places. We say, 'God intends me to be here because I am so useful.' Jesus never estimated His life along the line of the greatest use. God puts His saints where they will glorify Him, and we are no judge at all of where that is.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Never allow anything that divides or destroys the oneness of your life with Christ to remain in your life without facing it.
Oswald Chambers
Image
God is not saving the world it is done. Our business is to get men and women to realize it.
Oswald Chambers
Image
The truth is we have nothing to fear and nothing to overcome because He is all in all and we are more than conquerors through Him.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Our circumstances are the means God uses to exhibit just how wonderfully perfect and extraordinarily pure His Son is.
Oswald Chambers
