So it is in this Christian classic by the late pastor and evangelist A. W. Tozer. Tozer brings the mystics to bear on modern spirituality, grieving the hustle and bustle and calling for a slow, steady gaze upon God. With prophetic vigor and flowing prose, he urges us to replace low thoughts of God with lofty ones, to quiet our lives so we can know God's presence. He reminds us that life apart from God is really no life at all. Tozer writes from his knees, a posture fit for presenting the character of God in all its demanding grandeur. "Arise, O sleeper " is his word to us, and yet if we heed the call, we will see that to arise is not to stand, but to kneel before the God of heaven in humble contemplation. To pursue God is to know Him, and in our knowing be drawn in.

The most important question For A. W. Tozer, no question is more important than, "What is God like?" The desire to know God consumed his entire life and ministry. That's why those who read him come to know God more intimately. Originally preached as sermons at Southside Alliance Church in Chicago, this first volume of The Attributes of God examines ten attributes of God. It also includes a study guide for an in-depth look at each attribute: InfiniteImmenseGoodJustMercifulGraciousOmnipresentImmanentHolyPerfectSteeped in Scripture and filled with the Spirit, Tozer preached with striking clarity and power. The sense of his sermons comes through on every page, bringing the Word of God to bear upon you."If a sermon can be compared to light, then A.W. Tozer released a laser beam from the pulpit, a beam that penetrated the heart." -- Warren Wiersbe, former pastor of The Moody Church

Compiled by Edythe Draper, this lovely bonded leather devotional book fits perfectly in your pocket and includes 31 daily readings from "The Pursuit of God" and "God's Pursuit of Man, "interspersed throughout with Scripture and quotes from classic writers. A gold ribbon bookmark will help you keep your place. This book makes fora perfect gift "

"Any tiny work that God has ever done through me and through my ministry for Him dates back to that hour when I was filled with the Spirit. That is why I plead for the spiritual life of the Body of Christ and the eternal ministries of the Eternal Spirit through God's children--His instruments." -- A. W. TozerThe Size of the Soul is a collection of editorials by A. W. Tozer, written while he was the editor of Alliance Life. Known throughout the world (his editorials were printed simultaneously in Great Britain), Tozer had a pithy writing style and a keen prophetic eye to the condition of the church. In this 12th book of editorials, Tozer covers topics like: Steps to revivalThe needed reformationThe Christian's hopeThe causes of religious confusionThe need for prophetic insight

A.W. Tozer calls God the "Composer of the Cosmos," the "Chief Musician of the Universe." God signalsthe birds to chirp their beautiful tune in the coolness and tranquility of a spring morning, simply because that is what He designed them to do. Each note is wonderfully constructed by God, uniquely bringing praise to His name. With this inspiring perspective on worship, Tozer invites readers to take a deep look at the ways in which we worship and why. He reminds us that we were created solely for this purpose and that worshipping the Father and seeking His fellowship is our primary task. It is also His delight. The newest revised edition now includes "Worship: The Missing Jewel of the Evangelical Church," first published in the Alliance Life magazine in 1965, and still so profound today."

Will you press into heaven at the expense of earth?It has been said that revivals are born after midnight. This is not because midnight is a magic hour--it isn't--but because anyone truly desiring renewal doesn't tire at seeking it.Born After Midnight stirs us toward renewal. Be it in the realm of money, worship, worry, or prayer, A. W. Tozer applies God's high wisdom to our everyday living to show how sin is bitter and Christ is sweet, helping us crave heaven and lose our taste for the world.If you will take God for who He says He is, trust His promises as true, and forsake the world in clutching for heaven, it will cost you everything. But it will give you eternity. Born After Midnight invites you to seek what cannot be lost.

Salvation is from our side a choice, from the divine side ...] a conquest of the Most High God. - A. W. TozerWith words like these, Tozer shakes the soul. He crumbles the lies we believe and calls us to the more sure way. In these pages, Tozer says what it means to truly be saved. It is not merely to assent to Jesus and go on our same old way, but to be conquered by the Almighty God and invaded by His Spirit. A saved person is a transformed person. Let Tozer upend you in this moving prequel to The Pursuit of God. And being upended, may you be found standing upright in an upside-down world.

The only way tolive withtrue spiritual power"Are you sure you want to be possessed by a spirit other than your own? Even though that spirit be the pure Spirit of God? Even though He be the very gentle essence of the gentle Jesus? Even though He be wisdom personified, wisdom Himself? Even though He be as loving as the heart of God?" A. W. Tozer In a little book that's hard to swallow, A. W. Tozer teaches plainly who the Spirit is, why we should desire Him, but why few of us do. He instructs us in how to be filled with the Spirit, but first poses this question: Do you really want to be filled?"

"We have done nothing until we have left the world and set our faces toward the city of God in hard, practical reality." --A. W.

Tozer tells it how it is: to follow Christ toward heaven is to invite trouble in this world.Within these pages are reflections on the true nature of the church, the cost of following Jesus, and the blessed hope of the heaven-bound.Read Culture to be made sober, determined, and bold in a world that would rather you quietly blend in.

To have found God and still to pursue Him is a paradox of love, scorned indeed by the too-easily-satisfied religious person, but justified in happy experience by the children of the burning heart. Saint Bernard of Clairvaux stated this holy paradox in a musical four-line poem that will be instantly understood by every worshipping soul: "We taste Thee, O Thou Living Bread, And long to feast upon Thee still: We drink of Thee, the Fountainhead And thirst our souls from Thee to fill. " Come near to the holy men and women of the past and you will soon feel the heat of their desire after God. Let A. W. Tozer's pursuit of God spur you also into a genuine hunger and thirst to truly know God.

C mo es el liderazgo centrado en Cristo? Como cristiano, su enfoque de liderazgo se ve diferente al de aquellos que no siguen a Cristo? A lo largo de la Biblia, Dios nos muestra c mo se ve el liderazgo en Su reino y, a veces, puede parecer al rev s. El primero ser el ltimo. El amo ser el sirviente. Pero, c mo podemos aplicar estas verdades contradictorias en nuestro mundo de hoy? En lugar de centrarse en los aspectos pr cticos de la administraci n, Lidere como Cristo usa el libro de Tito para observar de cerca lo que implica el liderazgo b blico. Usando como gu a las instrucciones de Pablo a su joven compa ero en el ministerio, Tozer nos lleva a trav s de temas de gracia, servicio, audacia espiritual y humildad hacia la Palabra de Dios. Este fundamento conducir a un cambio poderoso y duradero, tanto en su propio rol de liderazgo hoy como en el reino eterno de Dios. ----- What does Christ-centered leadership look like? As a Christian, does your leadership approach look any different from that of those who don't follow Christ? Throughout the Bible, God shows us what leadership looks in His kingdom, and sometimes it can seem upside-down. The first shall be last. The master shall be the servant. But how can we apply these counterintuitive truths in our world today? Rather than focusing on the nuts and bolts of management, Lead like Christ uses the book of Titus to take a close look at what biblical leadership entails. Using Paul's instructions to his young ministry partner as a guide, Tozer takes us through themes of grace, servanthood, spiritual boldness, and humility toward the Word of God. This foundation will lead to powerful, long-lasting change in both your own leadership role today as well as in God's eternal kingdom.

Keys to the Deeper Life is a collection of theological essays written by American pastor and writer A.W. Tozer. Originally printed in Christian Life magazine, these essays ask the faithful to reject worldliness and instead return to "New Testament Christianity" where they will find a "deeper life" and greater connection to God.A.W. Tozer (b. 1897, d. 1963) was called to Christianity as a teen. One day while walking home from his job at a tire factory, he reportedly heard a street preacher say, "If you don't know how to be saved...just call on God, saying 'Lord be merciful to me a sinner.'" He did as the preacher said upon his return home.Tozer was one of the most widely-read Christian authors of his time, which becomes understandable when one experiences his simple, layperson style of writing. He was also a powerful preacher. When asked by one of his mentees how he prepared a sermon, he replied that he simply prayed, and God showed him which scriptures his congregants needed to hear.Keys to the Deeper Life, Tozer's 8th book published in 1957, is a short collection of essays to help contemporary Christians to build a deeper spiritual connection with God and their faith. A common theme throughout his writing is the worldliness of modern Christians, at the expense of the "deeper riches of life."The four essays in this work are: ● No Revival without Reformation● The Deeper Life, What Is It?● Gifts of the Spirit: Are They for Us Today?● How to Be Filled with the SpiritIn No Revival without Reformation, Tozer argues that rather than seek a revival of the church by increasing its numbers, Christians must reform their lives first and give new obedience to God's commandments. He writes, "We must return to New Testament Christianity, not in creed only but in complete manner of life as well." And he did not leave himself out of this judgement: "And this applies to this writer and to this magazine as well as to everyone that names the name of Jesus."The Deeper Life, What Is It? expresses concern about his contemporaries' satisfaction with an average spiritual existence, and instead exhorts the faithful to "explore the depths of the Christian evangel for those riches it surely contains but which we are as surely missing."In Gifts of the Spirit: Are They for Us Today?, Tozer states that there are so few Christians who "want to experience whatever God has for them within the context of sound New Testament faith" that they are easy to overlook. But there are still a few who will welcome these spiritual gifts (including faith, gifts of healing, prophecy, and distinguishing between spirits, among others). And only those who are blessed "by the Spirit through gifts He has Himself implanted in the souls of redeemed men" can do God's eternal work.In his final essay, How to Be Filled with the Spirit, Tozer outlines the necessary path to fulfillment. First, one must be certain it is possible to be so filled. Then, he must desire to be. This is no simple desire. The person must enthusiastically renounce the control of their life, and cede their personality and "self-sins" to the Spirit. Only when they surrender fully will they be prepared to be filled with the Spirit.Tozer's reliance on prayer and scriptures to support his writing makes his work simple yet profound, and as relevant now as it was during his lifetime.
