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.

More quotes by Oswald Chambers
The greatest answer to prayer is that I am brought into a perfect understanding with God, and that alters my view of actual things.
Oswald Chambers
Speak, Lord” make time to listen. Chastening is more than a means of discipline, it is meant to get me to the place of saying, “Speak, Lord.”
Oswald Chambers
Prayer is the exercise of drawing on the grace of God.
Oswald Chambers
If we understood what happens when we use the Word of God, we would use it oftener.
Oswald Chambers
The test of a man’s religious life and character is not what he does in the exceptional moments of life, but what he does in the ordinary times, when there is nothing tremendous or exciting on. The worth of a man is revealed in his attitude to ordinary things when he is not before the footlights.
Oswald Chambers
Never consider whether you are of use but ever consider that you are not your own but His.
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
It is a tremendous freedom to get rid of all self-considerat ion and learn to care about only one thing-the relationship between Christ and ourselves.
Oswald Chambers
Prayer is not a preparation for work, it IS work. Prayer is not a preparation for the battle, it IS the battle. Prayer is two-fold: definite asking and definite waiting to receive.
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
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
God wants to use us as He used His own Son
Oswald Chambers
Self pity is of the devil, and if I wallow in it, I cannot be used by God for his purpose in the world.
Oswald Chambers
The peace that Jesus gives is never engineered by circumstances on the outside.
Oswald Chambers
The Christian life is one of spiritual courage and determination lived out in our flesh
Oswald Chambers
Our salvation comes to us so easily because it cost God so much.
Oswald Chambers
Remember that we have to ask things of God that are in keeping with the God whom Jesus Christ revealed.
Oswald Chambers
When God gives a vision, transact business on that line, no matter what it costs.
Oswald Chambers
Worship is giving God the best that He has given you. Be careful what you do with the best you have, Whenever you get a blessing from God, give it back to Him as a love gift. Take time to meditate before God and offer the blessing back to Him in a deliberate act of worship.
Oswald Chambers
Never try to help God fulfill His word.
Oswald Chambers
