If I am going to know who Jesus is, I must obey Him. The majority of us don't know Jesus because we have not the remotest intention of obeying Him.

More quotes by Oswald Chambers
There is nothing more certain in Time or Eternity than what Jesus Christ did on the Cross.
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
Seeing is never believing: we interpret what we see in the light of what we believe. Faith is confidence in God before you see God emerging, therefore the nature of faith is that it must be tried.
Oswald Chambers
The love of God is not created- it is His nature.
Oswald Chambers
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
The greatest answer to prayer is that I am brought into a perfect understanding with God, and that alters my view of actual things.
Oswald Chambers
The battle of prayer is against two things in the earthlies: wandering thoughts and lack of intimacy with God's character as revealed in His word. Neither can be cured at once, but they can be cured by discipline.
Oswald Chambers
God never gives us discernment in order that we may criticize, but that we may intercede.
Oswald Chambers
Get into the habit of dealing with God about everything. Unless in the first waking moment of the day you learn to fling the door wide back and let God in, you will work on a wrong level all day but swing the door wide open and pray to your Father in secret, and every public thing will be stamped with the presence of God.
Oswald Chambers
Prayer is not an exercise, it is the life.
Oswald Chambers
The life of faith is not a life of mounting up with wings, but a life of walking and not fainting.
Oswald Chambers
God's end is to enable me to see that he can walk on the chaos of my life just now.
Oswald Chambers
We have no right to judge where we should be put, or to have preconceived notions as to what God is fitting us for. God engineers everything wherever He puts us, our one great aim is to pour out a whole-hearted devotion to Him in that particular work. 'Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might.'
Oswald Chambers
If God sees that my spiritual life will be furthered by giving the things for which I ask, then He will give them, but that is not the end of prayer. The end of prayer is that I come to know God Himself.
Oswald Chambers
If you want to be of use to God, maintain the proper relationship with Jesus Christ by staying focused on Him & He will make use of you every minute you live- yet you will be unaware, on the conscious level of your life, that you are being used of Him.
Oswald Chambers
Be relentless and hard on yourself if you are in the habit of talking about the experiences you have had. Faith based on experience is not faith faith based on God’s revealed truth is the only faith there is.
Oswald Chambers
The golden rule for understanding spiritually is not intellect, but obedience. If a man wants scientific knowledge, intellectual curiosity is his guide but if he wants insight into what Jesus Christ teaches, he can only get it by obedience.
Oswald Chambers
All Christians have the Spirit of Christ, but not all Christians have the mind of Christ.
Oswald Chambers
Never run away with the idea that it doesn't matter much what we believe or think it does. What we believe and think, we are not what we say we believe and think, but what we really do believe and think, we are there is no divorce at all.
Oswald Chambers
Be rightly related to God, find your joy there, and out of you will flow rivers of living water.
Oswald Chambers
