Oswald Chambers More Quotes by Oswald Chambers More Quotes From Oswald Chambers Remember Whose you are and Whom you serve. Oswald Chambers remember 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 time-with-godneglectworkers We impoverish God in our minds when we say there must be answers to our prayers on the material plane; the biggest answers to our prayers are in the realm of the unseen. Oswald Chambers prayerfaithgod Prayer is the practice of drawing on the grace of God. Don't say, "I will endure this until I can get away and pray." Pray now - draw on the grace of God in your moment of need. Prayer is the most normal and useful thing; it is not simply a reflex action of your devotion to God. We are very slow to learn to draw on God's grace through prayer. Oswald Chambers drawingpracticeprayer God has frequently to knock the bottom board out of your experience if you are a saint in order to get you into contact with Himself.

Always be in a state of expectancy, and see that you leave room for God to come in as he likes. Oswald Chambers faithgodlife Measure your growth in grace by your sensitiveness to sin. Oswald Chambers growthsingrace The secret of Christian quietness is not indifference, but the knowledge that God is my Father, He loves me, and I shall never think of anything He will forget. With this knowledge, worry becomes an impossibility. Oswald Chambers christianfatherthinking If God sees that my spiritual life will be furthered by giving the things for which I ask, then He will give them, but that is not the end of prayer. The end of prayer is that I come to know God Himself. Oswald Chambers prayerspiritualgiving There is actually only one thing you can dedicate to God, and that is your right to yourself. If you will give God your right to yourself, He will make a holy experiment out of you - and His experiments always succeed. Oswald Chambers christiangodinspirational 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 religiousattitudecharacter he must deny his right to himself, and he must realize who Jesus Christ is before he will bring himself to do it. Beware of refusing to go to the funeral of your own independence Oswald Chambers independencefuneraljesus If through a broken heart God can bring His purposes to pass in the world, then thank Him for breaking your heart. Oswald Chambers brokenpurposeheart If you have become bitter and sour, it is because when God gave you a blessing you hoarded it. Yet if you had poured it out to Him, you would have been the sweetest person on earth. If you are always keeping blessings to yourself and never learning to pour out anything “to the Lord,” other people will never have their vision of God expanded through you.
