Keys To The Deeper Life
by A. W. Tozer
– God demands all or nothing.
– What is your life producing?
– Does your soul cry out for God?
– Before there is a fullness, there must be an emptiness. We must be emptied of self.
– We cannot buy anything from God.
– How can you be filled:
1. Surrender
2. Ask
3. Obey
4. Believe
– No one is filled with the Spirit without knowing that he is filled with Holy Spirit.
– Being filled with the Spirit resolve all your other problems.
– To pray effectively, we must pray what God wants.
– Self is the serpent in the garden. Self is quenched when you are on your knees.
– No man is able to succeed unless he’s willing to fail. And no man is able to succeed if he is not willing to pass along the credit to someone else.
– You cannot be a genuine Bible Christian and love this world.
– The Holy Spirit is not simply enthusiasm, He is a person.
– Many do not truly want to be filled with the Holy Spirit of God because they still want to live as they please in this world.
– Be done playing with Christianity and throw yourself recklessly to God.
– Decide you’ll never take credit to yourself.
– Death to self is a painful thing.
– Worldliness has become acceptable and even popular in evangelical circles.
– We must become dissatisfied with the cheap form of Christianity.
– Follow the methods of the New Testament instead of big businesses.
