More quotes by 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 will is hard only when it comes up against our stubbornness, then it is as cruel as a ploughshare and as devastating as an earthquake.
Oswald Chambers
Fretting springs from a determination to get our own way.
Oswald Chambers
We have to recognize that sin is a fact, not a defect sin is red-handed mutiny against God. Either God or sin must die in my life...If sin rules in me, God's life in me will be killed if God rules in me, sin in me will be killed.
Oswald Chambers
Am I always in contact with Reality, or do I only pray when things have gone wrong, when there is a disturbance in the moments of my life?
Oswald Chambers
A private relationship of worshiping God is the greatest essential element of spiritual fitness.
Oswald Chambers
To silence the Voice of God is damnation in time!
Oswald Chambers
When you are in the dark, listen, and God will give you a very precious message.
Oswald Chambers
Intercession means that we deliberately substitute God’s interests in others for our natural sympathy with them.
Oswald Chambers
The greatest competitor of true devotion to Jesus is the service we do for Him. It is easier to serve than to pour out our lives completely for Him.
Oswald Chambers
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
God’s training is for now, not presently. His purpose is for this minute, not for something in the future. we have nothing to do with the afterwards of obedience we can get it wrong when we think of the afterwards. what men call training and preparation, God calls the end… if we realize that obedience is the end, then each moment is precious.
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
The whole meaning of prayer is that we may know God.
Oswald Chambers
Temptation is a suggested short cut to the realization of the highest at which I aim - not towards what I understand as evil, but towards what I understand as good.
Oswald Chambers
Every time we pray our horizon is altered, our attitude to things is altered, not sometimes but every time, and the amazing thing is that we don't pray more.
Oswald Chambers
Drudgery is one of the finest touchstones of character there is. Drudgery is work that is very far removed from anything to do with the ideal - the utterly mean grubby things and when we come in contact with them we know instantly whether or not we are spiritually real.
Oswald Chambers
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
The greatest need we have is not to do things, but to believe things.
Oswald Chambers
At times God puts us through the discipline of darkness to teach us to heed Him. Song birds are taught to sing in the dark, and we are put into the shadow of God’s hand until we learn to hear Him.
Oswald Chambers
