Smith Wigglesworth was a modern apostle of faith who shook the world with his amazing miracle ministry, but behind the miracles stood a man of character and drive who knew his God. Discover the person of Smith Wigglesworth and this ordinary man who lived an extraordinary life that provided the foundation to launch the new Charismatic revival still sweeping the earth today.
In this intimate portrait of Smiths life, author and personal friend George Stormont reveals the spiritual significance of the character Smith displayed and what you can glean from his example. Through taking Gods Word literally, Smith proved over and over again that God wants His children to live in victory, above the bondage of sin, poverty, and sickness.
You have no need to fear, truth stands eternal. Wickedness may increase and abound, but when the Lord raises His flag over the saint, it is victory; though it is in minority it always triumphs. Smith Wigglesworth
