Jesus Christ demands the same unrestrained, adventurous spirit in those who have placed their trust in Him that the natural man exhibits. If a person is ever going to do anything worthwhile, there will be times when he must risk everything by his leap in the dark.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Spend plenty of time with God let other things go, but don't neglect Him. We are not here to do work for God, we are here to be workers with Him, those through whom He can do His work.
Oswald Chambers
Image
We are built for the valley, for the ordinary stuff we are in, and that is where we have to prove our mettle.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Be exhausted for God, but remember that your supply comes from Him. 'All my fresh springs shall be in thee.'
Oswald Chambers

Eternal life is not a gift from God eternal life is the gift OF GOD.
Oswald Chambers

The Bible is not a book that you can open and say, 'Now, Lord, put some magic into my soul that will open up the meaning of this book.' There is only one way really to understand the Word, and that is through wrestling with the circumstances and happenings of life.

God is not saving the world it is done. Our business is to get men and women to realize it.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Humble yourself--it is a humbling experience to knock at God's door--you have to knock with the crucified thief. To him that knocketh, it shall be opened.
Oswald Chambers

God will turn the might have been into a wonderful culture for the future.
Oswald Chambers
Image
You can never argue anyone into the Kingdom of Heaven, you cannot argue anyone anywhere. The only result of arguing is to prove to your own mind that you are right and the other fellow wrong. You cannot argue for truth but immediately Incarnate Truth is presented, a want awakens in the soul which only God can meet.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Spiritual lust causes me to demand an answer from God, instead of seeking God Himself who gives the answer.
Oswald Chambers
Image
There is no condition of life in which we cannot abide in Jesus. We have to learn to abide in Him wherever we are placed.
Oswald Chambers
Image
No healthy Christian ever chooses suffering he chooses God's will, as Jesus did, whether it means suffering or not.
Oswald Chambers
Image
A river reaches places its source never knows.
Oswald Chambers
Image
Never take your obedience as the reason God blesses you obedience is the outcome of being rightly related to God.
Oswald Chambers
Image
If we are to be ready for Jesus Christ, we have to stop being religious (that is, using religion as a higher kind of culture) and be spiritually real.
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

The center of salvation is the Cross of Jesus, and the reason it is so easy to obtain salvation is because it cost God so much.
