Aiden Wilson Tozer quotes about
goes-on spirit problem
When the Holy Spirit is in full control of our lives, He will expect our obedience to the written Word of God. But it is part of our human problem that we would like to be full of the Spirit and yet go on and do as we please!
mean have-confidence
We operate by faith, which means that we have confidence in what God says, whether we fully understand it or not
running sorry giving
If He put tribulation before you and said He will give you patience by giving you a little trouble along the way, wouldn't you take a little trouble? You say, 'Lord, I want all my highways paved.' the Lord says, 'I'm sorry, I can't accommodate you. I'm going to let you run over some bumps occasionally, so you will have patience.' You do not like the bumps, but you like the patience, and if you want the patience, you will have to take the bumps. And what is patience but experience?
believe character humans
God's Word is true whether we believe it or not. Human unbelief cannot alter the character of God.
god spiritual impossible
God is looking for those with whom He can do the impossible - what a pity that we plan only the things that we can do by ourselves.
enemy may
Whatever keeps me from my Bible is my enemy, however harmless it may appear to be.
christian jesus anxiety
When I understand that everything happening to me is to make me more Christlike, it resolves a great deal of anxiety.
hero remember knows
We can be in our day what the heroes of faith were in their day - but remember at the time they didn't know they were heroes.
spiritual opposites numbers
To square the records, however, it should be said that if the Calvinist does not rise as high, he usually stays up longer. He places more emphasis on the Holy Scriptures which never change, while his opposite number (as the newspapers say) tends to judge his spiritual condition by the state of his feelings, which change constantly. This may be the reason that so many Calvinistic churches remain orthodox for centuries, at least in doctrine, while many churches of the Arminian persuasion often go liberal in one generation.
hurt pain men
It is doubtful whether God can bless a man greatly until He has hurt him deeply.
believe devil prioritize
The devil loves it when we say we believe then prioritize everything in our lives ahead of God.
men needs may
God may allow His servant to succeed when He has disciplined him to a point where he does not need to succeed to be happy. The man who is elated by success and is cast down by failure is still a carnal man. At best his fruit will have a worm in it.
god christian religious
The only Christian you want to listen to is the one who gives you more of a hunger for God.
art character excellence
As the excellence of steel is strength, and the excellence of art is beauty, so the excellence of mankind is moral character.
