The greatest test of Christianity is the wear and tear of daily life; it is like the shining of silver: the more it is rubbed the brighter it grows.

Oswald Chambers

We look upon prayer simply as a means of getting things for ourselves, but the biblical purpose of prayer is that we may get to know God Himself.
OSWALD CHAMBERS

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

God Himself Neglect Time Work
It never cost a disciple anything to follow Jesus; to talk about cost when you are in love with anyone is an insult.

Beware of any belief that makes you self-indulgent; it came from the pit, no matter how beautiful it sounds.
OSWALD CHAMBERS

Don’t plan without God. God seems to have a delightful way of upsetting the plans we have made, when we have not taken Him into account.

The main characteristic which is the proof of the indwelling Spirit is an amazing tenderness in personal dealing, and a blazing truthfulness with regard to God’s Word.
OSWALD CHAMBERS

Character Evidence God Regard Truth Word

OSWALD CHAMBERS

Change Person Prayer Sight Truth Yourself
Remember Whose you are and Whom you serve.
OSWALD CHAMBERS

God Remember Service Yourself
