If you will receive yourself in the fires of sorrow, God will make you nourishment for other people.
Oswald ChambersThe majority of us do not enthrone God, we enthrone common sense. We make our decisions and then ask the real God to bless our God's decision.
Oswald ChambersSee that you do not use the trick of prayer to cover up what you know you ought to do.
Oswald ChambersA river reaches places which its source never knows. And Jesus said that, if we have received His fullness, "rivers of living water" will flow out of us, reaching in blessing even "to the end of the earth" regardless of how small the visible effects of our lives may appear to be.
Oswald ChambersIf your faith is in experiences, anything that happens is likely to upset that faith.
Oswald ChambersWhen a man is born from above, the life of the Son of God is born in him, and he can either starve that life or nourish it. Prayer is the way the life of God is nourished. Our ordinary views of prayer are not found in the New Testament. We look upon prayer as a means of getting things for ourselves; the Bible's idea of prayer is that we may get to know God Himself.
