My Utmost for His Highest - Updated Language Edition, 1992

I thoroughly enjoy this booknand It's daily messages that are inspiring and heartfelt to reflect your growth in your spiritual journey and to ground you as you go about your daily tasks. It's always a reminder of our creators intent for our lives and putting Him and the message of God's love first and foremost in your mind. Each daily devotional is thought provoking and reaffirms your faith through scripture. Highly recommend!

Excellent and mature voice for those who are looking for a word that challenges you. I read it often and always speaks to me, from a young Scottish pastor, theologian, who died on an Egyptian battle field while serving as chaplain for British soldiers in the early 1900s.

I love this devotional. Hard truths for God’s faithful followers! I’ve already bought another as a gift.

I was surprised when it arrived — it’s noticeably smaller than I expected. But that turned out to be a good thing. It’s the perfect size to throw in a bag for trips, keep on the kitchen table for morning reading, or leave on the nightstand.The binding is a beautiful dark green (I thought it was black from the photos), and the silver gilded pages give it a nice touch. Several friends saw it and immediately said they loved this book too.What I appreciate most is that it’s short, direct, raw, and to the point — no fluff or gimmicks. Just powerful daily truth from Oswald Chambers. Exactly the kind of devotional I actually use and enjoy every day.Highly recommend.

This is the best devotional I have ever used. His ability to help the reader understand the the ways of truly being able to follow Christ is unmatched. The most inspirational and transformational devotional for all generations.

What wonderful lessons to study and meditate on. Pure truth, and he doesn't pull his punches! I had to buy a second copy for a dearly friend.

Truly an outstanding devotion book for everyday in the year. Some are hard to digest but they really get you to measure your faith. Highly recommended.

I give this book five stars plus! This man of God must have quite the award awaiting him in the Sweet By and By. He will shine like the stars in the galaxy (Dan. 12:3) for all the souls he has won for Christ with his Holy Spirit anointed words. Initially spoken to students in his Bible College ministry school, these words are still redeeming souls and pointing the way to a Godly life via the written page. Oswald Chambers died at the early age of 43 in 1917 due to complications with acute appendicitis. His widow took on the task of transcribing his many sermons and talks over the years from her own shorthand notes into the written word. Of all the books she transcribed and published “My Utmost for His Highest” has been the most successful. This work has never been out of print and has been translated into 39 languages, (Ref. Wikipedia). If you are seeking to know Him better and how to live a God-centered life in your years on this earth, this is the devotional for you. When I get to the end of the year I simply start over again. God inspired words never get stale. There’s always a new revelation awaiting no matter how many times I have read it.

Für mich persönlich, ist der Autor dieses Buches nicht Oswald Chambers sondern James Reimann, denn er hat hier seine eigene Gedanken geschrieben.Er meint, eine modernere Version des Buches von Chambers gemacht zu haben, aber für mich ist es leider nicht so.Viele tiefen Gedanken von Chambers sind ganz weg gelassen wurden, leider.Und die deutsche Übersetzung ist noch schlimmer, ich wiederhole, für mich.Die Übersetzerin, Marlies Stubenitzky, scheint der Einzig, Wahrer, Lebendiger GOTT überhaupt nicht zu kennen.Denn sie meint, ER hat uns "aus Freundlichkeit errettet" und nicht AUS GNADE, wie es in Epheser 2:8-9 ganz deutlich steht, und auch in vielen anderen biblische Texte.Es ist schade, dass viele Verlagshäuser -in die USA und andere englischsprachige Länder-, die Versionen in anderen Sprachen nicht kontrollieren.Deswegen die zwei Sterne.Ich empfehle, wenn möglich, die Bücher in der original Sprache zu lesen, und nicht fehlerhafte Übersetzungen oder sogennante revidierte Versionen, wie diese.

This was a real surprise! I can’t put into words how many blessings I received through this devocional! Truly, the best devocional ever!

Very edifying and good for daily meditation

Good

I love the original version but misplaced it. Hence buying a replacement but felt kind of disappointed when I saw a little damage on the cover. See photo
