If in preaching the gospel you substitute your knowledge of the way of salvation for confidence in the power of the gospel, you hinder people from getting to reality.
Oswald Chambers
Image
There is only one way by which I can get right with God, and that is through the death of Jesus Christ. I must get rid of the underlying idea that I can ever be right with God because of my obedience. Who of us could ever obey God to absolute perfection!
Oswald Chambers
Image
It is easier to serve God without a vision, easier to work for God without a call, because then you are not bothered by what God requires common sense is your guide, veneered over with Christian sentiment. You will be more prosperous and successful, more leisure-hearted, if you never realize the call of God.
Oswald Chambers
Image
I have to get to the point of the absolute and unquestionable relationship that takes everything exactly as it comes from Him. God never guides us at some time in the future, but always here and now. Realize that the Lord is here now, and the freedom you receive is immediate.
Oswald Chambers
Image
When God gives a vision, transact business on that line, no matter what it costs.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Jesus Christ has undertaken by His redemption to put in me a heart so pure that God can see nothing to censure.
Oswald Chambers
Image
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
Image
Our Lord did not say it was wrong to pray in the corners of the street, but He did say it was wrong to have the motive to be seen of men.
Oswald Chambers
Image
I have to learn that the aim in life is God's, not mine.
Oswald Chambers
Image
The historic idea that the devil tempts men had this remarkable effect, it produced the man of iron who fought the modern idea of blaming his heredity or his circumstances produces the man who gives in at once.
Oswald Chambers
Image
The purpose of prayer is to reveal the presence of God equally present, all the time, in every condition.
Oswald Chambers
Image
One man or woman called of God is worth a hundred who have elected to work for God.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Faith is unutterable trust in God, trust which never dreams that He will not stand by us.
Oswald Chambers
Image
The agony of a man's affliction is often necessary to put him into the right mood to face the fundamental things of life. The Psalmist says: Before I was afflicted I went astray, but now have I kept Thy Word.
Oswald Chambers
Image
God expects no complaining on our part and offers no explanation on His part.
Oswald Chambers
Image
If we understood what happens when we use the Word of God, we would use it oftener.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Never become attached to anything that continues to hurt God. For you to be free of it, God must be allowed to hurt whatever it may be.
Oswald Chambers
Image
God never gives us discernment in order that we may criticize, but that we may intercede.
Oswald Chambers
Image
We pray when there's nothing else we can do Jesus wants us to pray before we do anything at all.
Oswald Chambers
Image
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
