More quotes by Watchman Nee

Image
Therefore, brethren, pray until God gives us revelation so that knowing this in our spirit we may truly confess that our old man has been crucified with him.
Watchman Nee
Image
Irrespective of how we physiologically are made, even possessing special weaknesses, we can overcome our sins through the Lord.
Watchman Nee
Image
A Christian life is an unending engagement on the battlefield.
Watchman Nee
Image
Frequently the burden or concern in the spirit is for prayer.
Watchman Nee
Image
Revelation is the first step to holiness, and consecration is the second. A day must come in our lives, as definite as the day of our conversion, when we give up all right to ourselves and submit to the absolute Lordship of Jesus Christ.
Watchman Nee
Image
The gospel we preach must not be just something we hear from men or read from books or even conceived through our meditation. Unless it is delivered to us by God, it can serve no spiritual utility.
Watchman Nee
Image
Many confuse understanding with believing.
Watchman Nee

God is not seeking a display of my Christ-likeness , but a manifestation of His Christ.
Watchman Nee
Image
The right attitude is this: that I have my own will, yet I will the will of God.
Watchman Nee

The cross grants us position, the Holy Spirit gives us experience.
Watchman Nee
Image
If we just had more revelation of what we already have, there would be far less prayers and far more praise.
Watchman Nee
Image
Most soulish believers assume an attitude of self-righteousness, though often it is scarcely detectable. They hold tenaciously to their minute opinions we ought to lay aside the small differences and pursue the common objective.
Watchman Nee
Image
With complete consecration comes perfect peace.
Watchman Nee
Image
Prayer is work. The experiences of many children of God demonstrate that it accomplishes far more than does any other form of work. It is also warfare, for it is one of the weapons in fighting the enemy. However, only prayer in the spirit is genuinely effectual.
Watchman Nee
Image
An affection which is not inspired by the Lord will soon be transformed into lust. Samson is not alone in the history of man in failing in this regard. Delilah is still cutting the hair of man today!
Watchman Nee
Image
From the evening I was saved, I began to live a new life, for the life of the eternal God had entered into me.
Watchman Nee
Image
Our prayers lay the track down which Gods power can come. Like a mighty locomotive, his power is irresistible, but it cannot reach us without rails.
Watchman Nee
Image
There is nothing more tragic than to come to the end of life and know we have been on the wrong course.
Watchman Nee
Image
God will answer all our questions in one way and one way only. Namely, by showing us more of his Son.
Watchman Nee
Image
And it is through conflict that God induces the believer to seek and to grasp total triumph in Christ.
