It is not what a man does that is of final importance, but what he is in what he does. The atmosphere produced by a man, much more than his activities, has the lasting influence.

To identify with the death of Jesus Christ means that we must die to everything that was never a part of Him.
Oswald Chambers

When we pray in the Name of Jesus the answers are in accordance with His nature, and if we think our prayers are unanswered it is because we are not interpreting the answer along this line.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Holiness is the balance between my nature and the law of God as expressed in Jesus Christ.
Oswald Chambers
Image
The touchstone of the Holy Spirit’s work in us is the answer to our Lord’s question: “Who do men say that the Son of Man is?” Our Lord makes human destiny depend on that one thing, Who men say He is, because the revelation of Who Jesus is is only given by the Holy Spirit.
Oswald Chambers

It must be God first, God second, and God third
Oswald Chambers

The secret of Christian quietness is not indifference, but the knowledge that God is my Father, He loves me, and I shall never think of anything He will forget. With this knowledge, worry becomes an impossibility.

Oswald Chambers
Image
Sanctification means being made one with Jesus so that the disposition that ruled Him will rule us. It will cost everything that is not of God in us.
Oswald Chambers
Image
We give credit to human wisdom when we should give credit to the divine guidance of God being exhibited through childlike people who were “foolish” enough to trust God’s wisdom and His supernatural equipment.
Oswald Chambers
Image
A good book, in the language of the book-sellers, is a salable one in that of the curious, a scarce one in that of men of sense, a useful and instructive one.
Oswald Chambers
Image
No enthusiasm will ever stand the strain that Jesus Christ will put upon His worker, only one thing will, and that is a personal relationship to Himself which has gone through the mill of His spring-cleaning until there is only one purpose left--I am here for God to send me where He will.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Readiness for God means that we are ready to do the tiniest little thing or the great big thing, it makes no difference
Oswald Chambers
Image
It never cost a disciple anything to follow Jesus to talk about cost when you are in love with anyone is an insult.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Worship is giving God the best that He has given you.
Oswald Chambers
Image
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
