Trust no one, not even the finest saint who ever walked this earth, ignore him, if he hinders your sight of Jesus Christ.
Oswald ChambersWe pray when there's nothing else we can do; Jesus wants us to pray before we do anything at all.
Oswald ChambersWatch human nature; we are so built that if we do not get thrilled in the right way, we will get thrilled in the wrong. If we are without the thrill of communion with God, we will try to get thrilled by the devil, or by some concoction of human ingenuity.
Oswald ChambersThe Cross did not happen to Jesus: He came on purpose for it. He is โthe Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.
Oswald ChambersJoy is the great note all through the Bible. We have the notion of joy that arises from good spirits or good health, but the miracle of joy of God has nothing to do with a man's life or his circumstances or the condition he is in. Jesus Christ does not come to a man and say, 'Cheer up.' He plants within a man the miracle of the joy of God's own nature.
