If for one whole day, quietly and determinedly, we were to give ourselves up to the ownership of Jesus and to obeying his orders, we should be amazed at its close to realize all he had packed into that one day.

More quotes by Oswald Chambers
The only right a Christian has is the right to give up his rights.
Oswald Chambers
Every element of our own self-reliance must be put to death by the power of God.
Oswald Chambers
A private relationship of worshiping God is the greatest essential element of spiritual fitness.
Oswald Chambers
Sanctification costs to the extent of an intense narrowing of all our interests on earth and an immense broadening of all our interests in God.
Oswald Chambers
God never gives us discernment in order that we may criticize, but that we may intercede.
Oswald Chambers
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
The height of the mountaintop is measured by the drab drudgery of the valley.
Oswald Chambers
The sympathy which is reverent with what it cannot understand is worth its weight in gold.
Oswald Chambers
It is impossible to live the life of a disciple without definite times of secret prayer. You will find that the place to enter in is in your business, as you walk along the streets, in the ordinary ways of life, when no one dreams you are praying, and the reward comes openly, a revival here, a blessing there.
Oswald Chambers
The secret of the missionary is...I am His, and He is carrying out His work through me.
Oswald Chambers
Am I prepared to let God grip me by His power and do a work in me that is worthy of Himself? 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, and He has to get me into the attitude of mind and spirit where at any cost I will let Him sanctify me wholly.
Oswald Chambers
God did not direct His call to Isaiah— Isaiah overheard God saying, . . . who will go for Us? The call of God is not just for a select few but for everyone. Whether I hear God’s call or not depends on the condition of my ears, and exactly what I hear depends upon my spiritual attitude.
Oswald Chambers
We are here for God's designs, not for our own
Oswald Chambers
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
See that you do not use the trick of prayer to cover up what you know you ought to do.
Oswald Chambers
I have learnt that I am me, that I can do the things that, as one might put it, me can do, but I cannot do the things that me would like to do.
Oswald Chambers
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
Never allow anything to divert you from your insight into Jesus Christ. It is the true test of whether you are spiritual or not. To be unspiritual means that other things have a growing fascination for you. Since mine eyes have looked on Jesus, I’ve lost sight of all beside, So enchained my spirit’s vision, Gazing on the Crucified.
Oswald Chambers
It is better to enter into life maimed but lovely in God’s sight than to appear lovely to man’s eyes but lame to God’s.
Oswald Chambers
God will turn the might have been into a wonderful culture for the future.
