God-Given Faith | Smith Wigglesworth Sermon

Sermon overview

Wigglesworth’s sermon title invites a close reading of faith as dependence on God. Hebrews 11 puts that dependence into stories of people who obeyed before they saw the outcome.

Look at Enoch and Abraham in the same chapter. Their circumstances differ, but both stories point to a life ordered around God’s word.

How Wigglesworth influenced Vince Baker

Vince Baker came to Christ on July 9 at age 17. For his July 26 birthday, his grandmother gave him Albert Hibbert’s Smith Wigglesworth: The Secret of His Power.

Vince recalls that God spoke to him as he read about Wigglesworth’s life and ministry. The book shaped his own walk with God and the way he teaches about faith, prayer, and yielding to the Holy Spirit.
