Text Quotes
The yearning to know what cannot be known, to comprehend the incomprehensible, to touch and taste the unapproachable, arises from the image of God in the nature of man. Deep calleth unto deep, and though polluted and landlocked by the mighty disaster theologians call the Fall, the soul senses its origin and longs to return to its source (A W Tozer Quotes)
But the sons of this world have not God; they have only each other, and they walk holding to each other and looking to one another for assurance like frightened children (A W Tozer Quotes)
The Church has surrendered her once lofty concept of God and has substituted for it one so low, so ignoble, as to be utterly unworthy of thinking, worshiping men. This she has not done deliberately, but little by little and without her knowledge; and her very unawareness only makes her situation all the more tragic (A W Tozer Quotes)
I am Thy servant to do Thy will, and that will is sweeter to me than position or riches or fame, and I choose it above all things on Earth or in Heaven (A W Tozer Quotes)
The reason why many are still troubled, still seeking, still making little forward progress is because they haven't yet come to the end of themselves. We're still trying to give orders, and interfering with God's work within us (A W Tozer Quotes)
For this reason the gravest question before the Church is always God Himself, and the most portentous fact about any man is not what he at a given time may say or do, but what he is his deep heart conceives God to be like (A W Tozer Quotes)
Without doubt, the mightiest thought the mind can entertain is the thought of God, and the weightest word in any language is its word for God (A W Tozer Quotes)
To be effective the preacher's message must be alive; it must alarm, arouse, challenge; it must be God's present voice to a particular people (A W Tozer Quotes)
Teach us, O God, that nothing is necessary to Thee. Were anything necessary to Thee that thing would be the measure of Thine imperfection: and how could we worship one who is imperfect? If nothing is necessary to Thee, then no one is necessary, and if no one, then not we. Thou dost seek us though Thou does not need us. We seek Thee because we need Thee, for in Thee we live and move and have our being. Amen (A W Tozer Quotes)
The problem of why God created the universe still troubles thinking men; but if we cannot know why, we can at least know that He did not bring His worlds into being to meet some unfulfilled need in Himself, as a man might build a house to shelter him against the winter cold or plant a field of corn to provide him with necessary food. The word 'necessary' is wholly foreign to God (A W Tozer Quotes)
When we try to focus our thought upon One who is pure uncreated being we may see nothing at all, for He dwelleth in light that no man can approach unto. Only by faith and love are we able to glimpse Him as He passes by our shelter in the cleft of the rock (A W Tozer Quotes)
The fact of God is necessary for the fact of man. Think God away and man has no ground of existence (A W Tozer Quotes)
Philosophy and science have not always been friendly toward the idea of God, the reason being they are dedicated to the task of accounting for things and are impatient with anything that refuses to give an account of itself. The philosopher and the scientist will admit that there is much that they do not know; but that is quite another thing from admitting there is something which they can never know, which indeed they have no technique for discovering (A W Tozer Quotes)
God never hurries. There are no deadlines against which he must work. Only to know this is to quiet our spirits and relax our nerves (A W Tozer Quotes)
Were we able to extract from any man a complete answer to the question, "What comes into your mind when you think about God?" we might predict with certainty the future of that man (A W Tozer Quotes)
A man by his sin may waste himself, which is to waste that which on earth is most like God. This is man's greatest tragedy and God's heaviest grief (A W Tozer Quotes)
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 (A W Tozer Quotes)
We might be wise to follow the insight of the enraptured heart rather than the more cautious reasoning of the theological mind (A W Tozer Quotes)
Has it ever occurred to you that one hundred pianos all tuned to the same fork are automatically tuned to each other? They are of one accord by being tuned, not to each other, but to another standard to which each one must individually bow. So one hundred worshipers met together, each one looking away to Christ, are in heart nearer to each other than they could possibly be, were they to become 'unity' conscious and turn their eyes away from God to strive for closer fellowship (A W Tozer Quotes)
They have never bothered to think the matter out for themselves, but have heard about Him from others, and have put belief in Him into the back of their minds along with the various odds and ends that make up their total creed. To many others God is but an ideal, another name for goodness, or beauty, or truth; or He is law, or life, or the creative impulse back of the phenomena of existence (A W Tozer Quotes)
Then he should remember that this is holy business. No careless or casual dealings will suffice (A W Tozer Quotes)
O god and father, I repent of my sinful preoccupation with visible things. The world has been too much with me. Thou hast been here and I knew it not. I have been blind to thy presence. Open my eyes that I may behold thee in and around me. For Christ's sake, amen (A W Tozer Quotes)
God made us for Himself: that is the only explanation that satisfies the heart of a thinking man, whatever his wild reason may say. Should faulty education and perverse reasoning lead a man to conclude otherwise, there is little that any Christian can do for him (A W Tozer Quotes)
The essence of idolatry is the entertainment of thoughts about God that are unworthy of Him. It begins in the mind and may be present where no overt act of worship has taken place (A W Tozer Quotes)
Now, a plain word here about the Christian church trying to carry on in its own power: That kind of Christianity makes God sick, for it is trying to run a heavenly institution after an earthly manner (A W Tozer Quotes)
So we will be brought one by one to the testing place, and we may never know when we are there. At that testing place there will be no dozen possible choices for us; just one and an alternative, but our whole future will be conditioned by the choice we make (A W Tozer Quotes)
With our loss of the sense of majesty has come the further loss of religious awe and consciousness of the divine Presence. We have lost our spirit of worship and our ability to withdraw inwardly to meet God in adoring silence. Modern Christianity is simply not producing the kind of Christian who can appreciate or experience the life in the Spirit. The words, "Be still, and know that I am God, " mean next to nothing to the self-confident, bustling worshipper (A W Tozer Quotes)
Lord, teach me to listen. The times are noisy and my ears are weary with the thousand raucous sounds which continuously assault them (A W Tozer Quotes)
We should revel in the joy of believing that God is the sum of all patience and the true essence of kindly good will! (A W Tozer Quotes)
It is not what a man does that determines whether his work is sacred or secular, it is why he does it. The motive is everything (A W Tozer Quotes)
