Tozer Tuesdays
For the next few Tuesdays, I want to share some of Tozer’s prayers from His book The Pursuit of God
Oh God, I have tasted thy goodness, and it has both satisfied me and made me thirsty for more. I am painfully conscious of my need for further grace. I am ashamed of my lack of desire. Oh God, the Triune God, I want to want thee; I long to be filled with longing; I thirst to be made more thirsty still. Show me Thy glory, I pray Thee, that so I may know thee indeed. Begin in mercy, a new work of love within me. Say to my soul, “Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away.” Then give me grace to rise and follow Thee up from this misty lowland where I have wandered so long.
In Jesus’ name. Amen

Hey Lee. Thanks for this post. I’m in a process of unlearning prayer and it’s great to be reminded of Tozer’s work. Have you read any of Andrew Murray’s fine writin on the subject?
A long time ago…
I was actually flipping through “Revival” today.
Hey Lee!
Just found your website. I, too, have found Tozer’s prayers in “The Pursuit of God” to be dynamite! Just think of the changes which can happen if we pray them daily / earnestly / expectantly.
Awesome website, friend! You have just been bookmarked!
