More quotes by Oswald Chambers

Begin to know Him now, and finish never
Oswald Chambers
The vision that God gives is not some unattainable castle in the sky, but a vision of what God wants you to be down here.

The expression of Christian character is not good doing, but God-likeness. If the Spirit of God has transformed you within, you will exhibit Divine characteristics in your life, not good human characteristics . God's life in us expresses itself as God's life, not as human life trying to be godly.
Oswald Chambers
God never fits His word to suit me He fits me to suit His word.
Oswald Chambers
It is by no haphazard chance that in every age men have risen early to pray. The first thing that marks decline in spiritual life is our relationship to the early morning.

Oswald Chambers
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
Grace is the overflowing favor of God, and you can always count on it being available to draw upon as needed.
Oswald Chambers
Love for the Lord is not an ethereal, intellectual, dreamlike thing it is the intensest, most vital, most passionate love of which the human heart is capable.
Oswald Chambers
Holiness is the balance between my nature and the law of God as expressed in Jesus Christ.
Oswald Chambers
So long as there is a human being who does not know Jesus Christ, I am his debtor to serve him until he does.
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 is giving God the best that He has given you.
Oswald Chambers
If we were never depressed we would not be alive - only material things don't suffer depression. If human beings were not capable of depression, we would have no capacity for happiness and exaltation. Whenever you examine yourself, take into your capacity for depression.
Oswald Chambers
Live in a constant state of expectancy, and leave room for God to come in as He decides.
