More quotes by Oswald Chambers
Worship is giving God the best that He has given you.
Oswald Chambers
I have learnt that I am me, that I can do the things that, as one might put it, me can do, but I cannot do the things that me would like to do.
Oswald Chambers
My unrestrained commitment of myself to God gives the Holy Spirit the opportunity to grant to me the holiness of Jesus Christ.
Oswald Chambers
The Bible talks plentifully about joy, but it nowhere talks about a 'happy Christian.' Happiness depends on what happens joy does not. Remember, Jesus Christ had joy, and He prayed 'that they might have my joy fulfilled in themselves.'
Oswald Chambers
The whole meaning of prayer is that we may know God.
Oswald Chambers
If ever we are going to be made into wine, we will have to be crushed you cannot drink grapes. Grapes become wine only when they have been squeezed. I wonder what kind of finger and thumb God has been using to squeeze you, and you have been like a marble and escaped?
Oswald Chambers
The greatest word of Jesus to His disciples is abandon
Oswald Chambers
The only right a Christian has is the right to give up his rights.
Oswald Chambers
The root of all sin is the suspicion that God is not good.
Oswald Chambers
We tend to use prayer as a last resort, but God wants it to be our first line of defense.
Oswald Chambers
Faith for my deliverance is not faith in God. Faith means, whether I am visibly delivered or not, I will stick to my belief that God is love.
Oswald Chambers
When we are consciously aware of being used as broken bread and poured out wine, we have yet another level to reach - a level where all awareness of ourselves and what God is doing through us is completely eliminated. A saint is never consciously a saint - a saint is consciously dependent on God.
Oswald Chambers
Beware of any work for God that causes or allows you to avoid concentrating on Him. A great number of Christian workers worship their work. The only concern of Christian workers should be their concentration on God.
Oswald Chambers
The Christian life is one of spiritual courage and determination lived out in our flesh
Oswald Chambers
The voice of the Spirit is as gentle as a zephyr, so gentle that unless you are living in perfect communion with God, you never hear it.
Oswald Chambers
It is not true to say that God wants to teach us something in our trials. Through every cloud He brings our way, He wants us to unlearn something.
Oswald Chambers
Whenever the insistence is on the point that God answers prayer, we are off the track. The meaning of prayer is that we get hold of God, not of the answer.
Oswald Chambers
When someone thinks that to develop a holy life he must always be alone with God, he is no longer of any use to others.
Oswald Chambers
Make the determination to abide in Jesus wherever you are now or wherever you may be placed in the future.
Oswald Chambers
The golden rule for understanding spiritually is not intellect, but obedience. If a man wants scientific knowledge, intellectual curiosity is his guide but if he wants insight into what Jesus Christ teaches, he can only get it by obedience.
Oswald Chambers
