More quotes by Oswald Chambers
Paul welcomed hearbreak, disillusionment and tribulation for only one reason - - these things kept him immovable in his devotion to the gospel of God.
Oswald Chambers
Solitude with God repairs the damage done by the fret and noise and clamour of the world.
Oswald Chambers
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
The Sermon on the Mount is not a set of principles to be obeyed apart from identification with Jesus Christ. The Sermon on the Mount is a statement of the life we will live when the Holy Spirit is getting his way with us.
Oswald Chambers
We have an idea that God is leading us to a particular end, a desired goal He is not...What we call the process God calls the end. His purpose is that I depend on Him and His power NOW. It is the process, not the end that is glorifying to God.
Oswald Chambers
We shall find that the spheres God brings us into are not meant to teach us something but to make us something.
Oswald Chambers
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
Some of us are like the Dead Sea, always taking in but never giving out, because we are not rightly related to the Lord Jesus.
Oswald Chambers
If a man cannot prove his religion in the valley, it is not worth anything.
Oswald Chambers
There are many things that are perfectly legitimate, but if you are going to concentrate on God you cannot do them.
Oswald Chambers
God never gives strength for tomorrow, or for the next hour, but only for the strain of the minute.
Oswald Chambers
Service is the overflow which pours from a life filled with love and devotion.
Oswald Chambers
We lean to our own understanding, or we bank on service and do away with prayer, and consequently by succeeding in the external we fail in the eternal, because in the eternal we succeed only by prevailing prayer.
Oswald Chambers
The secret of the missionary is...I am His, and He is carrying out His work through me.
Oswald Chambers
If we are going to live as disciples of Jesus, we have to remember that all noble things are difficult.
Oswald Chambers
Worship and intercession must go together, the one is impossible without the other. Intercession means that we rouse ourselves up to get the mind of Christ about the one for whom we pray.
Oswald Chambers
When the darkness of dismay comes, endure until it is over, because out of it will come that following of Jesus which is an unspeakable joy.
Oswald Chambers
Every God-given vision will become real if we will only have patience.
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
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
