There is no greater threat to our devotion to Christ than our service for Christ.
Oswald Chambers
Image
God judges us on the basis of the miraculous atonement by the Cross of Christ.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Repentance always brings a person to the point of saying, “I have sinned.” The surest sign that God is at work in his life is when he says that and means it. Anything less is simply sorrow for having made foolish mistakes-a reflex action caused by self-disgust.
Oswald Chambers
Image
The whole meaning of prayer is that we may know God.
Oswald Chambers
Image
It is much easier to do something than to trust in God we mistake panic for inspiration.
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
If you are going to be used by God, He will take you through a number of experiences that are not meant for you personally at all. They are designed to make you useful in His hands, and to enable you to understand what takes place in the lives of others.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Faith is deliberate confidence in the character of God whose ways you cannot understand at the time.
Oswald Chambers
Image
God's will is hard only when it comes up against our stubbornness, then it is as cruel as a ploughshare and as devastating as an earthquake.
Oswald Chambers
Image
A man ceases to be an honest doubter the moment he refuses one way of getting at the truth because he does not like that way.
Oswald Chambers
Image
The life of faith is not a life of mounting up with wings, but a life of walking and not fainting.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Faith for my deliverance is not faith in God. Faith means, whether I am visibly delivered or not, I will stick to my belief that God is love.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Many of us refuse to grow where we are put consequently, we take root nowhere.
Oswald Chambers
Image
I have to learn that the aim in life is God's, not mine. God is using me from His great personal standpoint, and all He asks of me is that I trust Him, and never say — Lord, this gives me such heart-ache.
Oswald Chambers
Image
It is misleading to imagine that we are developed in spite of our circumstances, for we are developed because of them. It is mastery in circumstances that is needed, not mastery over them.
Oswald Chambers
Image
There is only one way by which I can get right with God, and that is through the death of Jesus Christ. I must get rid of the underlying idea that I can ever be right with God because of my obedience. Who of us could ever obey God to absolute perfection!
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
God’s training is for now, not presently. His purpose is for this minute, not for something in the future. we have nothing to do with the afterwards of obedience we can get it wrong when we think of the afterwards. what men call training and preparation, God calls the end… if we realize that obedience is the end, then each moment is precious.
Oswald Chambers
Image
God does not expect us to imitate Jesus Christ He expects us to allow the life of Jesus to be manifested in our moral flesh.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Prayer is the way the life of God is nourished.
Oswald Chambers
