The Mighty One is in me.

I want you to say in the morning, "That mighty One is in me. He can put me over today. I can face any emergency. I can do all things in Him because He is my strength."


I can hear Him whisper, Isaiah 41:10: "Fear thou not for I am with thee. ("I am in thee.") Be not dismayed for I am thy (Father) God. I will strengthen thee; yea, I will uphold thee; yea, I am today all that you need: your helper, your wisdom, your strength, your ability."

You see, it is not what I should be. It is not what I can be.

It is what I am in Christ.

God's Word Can Never Die

God's Word, like Himself, can never die, can never lose its freshness, its power, its ability to recreate, to strengthen and give courage.


You see, the Word in the lips of faith becomes just like the Word in Jesus' lips.

The Word in lips of doubt and fear is a dead thing; but in the lips of faith, it becomes life-giving, dominant.

Through it the sick are healed; Satan's captives are set free.

This living Word is the lips of faith is God's answer to the heart cry of man.

Man's word may fascinate and satisfy reason for a time, but the heart demands the Word of God.

-- E.W. Kenyon

"The Supernatural"

"The Supernatural" is the title that E.W. Kenyon put on this passage.




Prayer is an excursion into the supernatural realm.

You are in the Throne Room in the Presence of God, of All Ability. He has promised to hear your petition and to give you your request. You have come on the ground of His Word.

He said: "Whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my Name He will give you."

You understand that the words that Jesus spoke were His Father's words; so you come now with the Father's words in your lips, and you are making your appeal on the ground of His own Word.



-- E. W. Kenyon

Sons Visiting Their Father

Few of us have realized the fact that the Father's heart is hungry for the companionship of His children. His heart hunger is the reason for man and the reason for redemption, "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son."










That love impels Him to call us to Prayer.







That call is the proof of our ability to stand in His presence. It is the proof of His making us righteous enough to stand in His presence without reproof or condemnation.







It means that we are ever welcome to the Throne Room.







How few of us have ever realized this.







Is is sons visiting their Father.







It is children coming joyously into the presence of a Loving Parent.







-- E.W. Kenyon 

A Call to Prayer

If you don't take time to pray, you are losing out.


You can't say that you have no responsibility in the prayer life, for you have.

To see a need is to have a call to prayer.

There are people who will be utterly lost unless you take your place.

Unless you do you part, men will cry against you through eternity.

You can't plead that you have too much work to do. You can pray while you work.

You can't put up the plea that you do not know how; you can learn if you wish.

For you to disobey the prayer call is for you to disobey the call of your Father.

The prayer responsibility today is the most important thing of our lives.



-- E.W. Kenyon

An Overflowing Cup

The man cried, "... Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean" (Matthew 8:2). Was Jesus willing? You will never find Jesus missing an opportunity of doing good. You will find that He is always more willing to work than we are to give Him an opportunity to work. The trouble is, we do not come to Him, we do not ask Him for what He is more than willing to give.


. . . If you are definite with Him, you will never go away disappointed. . . This Jesus is just the same today, and He says to you, "I will; be thou clean." He has an overflowing cup for thee, a fulness of life. He will meet you in your absolute helplessness. All things are possible if you will only believe.



-- Smith Wigglesworth

Where Men Lack

[The Gospels] will never fail to accomplish the work of God if people will but read and believe them.


That is where men lack. All lack of faith is due to not feeding on God's Word. You need it every day. How can you enter into a life of faith? Feed on the livng Christ of whom this Word is full. As you get taken up with the glorious fact and the wondrous presence of the living Chrsit, the faith of God will spring up within you. ". . . faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God" (Romans 10:17).

-- Smith Wigglesworth

Men of Prayer

"What the Church needs today is not more machinery or better, not new organizations or more and novel methods, but men whom the Holy Ghost can use — men of prayer, men mighty in prayer. The Holy Ghost does not flow through methods, but through men. He does not come on machinery, but on men. He does not anoint plans, but men — men of prayer."




-- E. M. Bounds

Feast of Tabernacles

Happy Sukkot (Feast of Tabernacles). This meditation, which I pieced together from a couple sources, gives a Christian perspective and a good spiritual lesson.










Sukkot, or the Feast of the Tabernacles, begins at sunset on Wednesday, October 12 and runs until sundown on the 19th. This festival not only marks a time of thanksgiving for God’s provision, but it also commemorates the Jews’ deliverance from bondage in Egypt and their subsequent wandering in the desert for 40 years without a permanent place to call “home.” During Sukkot, Jews and Messianic Jews (who believe in Jesus) construct booths outside their synagogues and homes. These booths, consisting of improvised walls and open roofs covered with branches or leaves, resemble the temporary shelters that Jews erected while living in the desert.

The word Sukkot means "booths", a reference to the temporary dwellings that are built and inhabited during the festival.

At the end of the eight days, the Jews leave their temporary dwellings to return to their permanent homes. (This is one of the reasons some suspect that this feast, rather than the Feast of Trumpets, is suggestive of the Rapture of the Church.) This day, traditionally, is the day that Solomon dedicated the first Temple.


In the time of Jesus, Sukkot involved a daily processional to the Pool of Siloam to fetch water for the Temple. This ceremonial procession is the setting for the events of John 7, where Jesus offers his listeners "living water."

As Christians we may not celebrate many of the traditional Jewish holidays, yet they hold great spiritual and prophetic significance. Colossians 2:16-17 says, "Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holy day, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days: which are a shadow of things to come." (emphasis added)

Most observers note that the three spring festivals - Passover, Feast of Unleavened Bread, and Feast of First Fruits - are prophetic of the Lord's First Coming. They each were also fulfilled on the day they were observed.

Between these three spring feasts and the final three fall feasts is the Feast of Weeks, or Pentecost, which is predictive of the Church.

It is believed that the last three feasts, in the fall, are prophetic of the Lord's Second Coming. It seems little coincidence that the seventh day of Sukkot is called Hoshanah Rabbah - "Great Salvation". Many believers are particularly watchful each fall in the hopes that "this" will be the year these final thfeasts are fulfilled when Jesus comes again.

The Sukkot festival is a great reminder to us to rejoice in the Lord’s constant protection of and provision for us. But it also reminds us that our homes are temporary dwellings and that life is fleeting. Our permanent home with the Lord awaits us.

We find this expressed beautifully in the New Testament book of Hebrews, describing our ancestors, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob: “All these people were still living by faith when they died. They did not receive the things promised; they only saw them and welcomed them from a distance. And they admitted that they were aliens and strangers on earth” (Hebrews 11:13).

Next time we are discouraged by our circumstances and our current struggles, it helps to remember it is only temporary.

The Joy of the Lord

. . . the children of God are the only people who are really glad. We are glad inside and we are glad outside. Our gladness flows from the inside. God has filled us with joy unspeakable and full of glory. This is probably how Paul himself felt when he refers to being "beside ourselves" in the Lord. This joy in the Holy Ghost is beyond anything else. And this joy of the Lord is our strength.




-- Smith Wigglesworth

Tested in the Fire

Beloved, if you are tested in the fire, the Master is cleaning away all that cannot bring out the image, cleaning away all the dross from your life, and every evil power, till He sees His face right in the life, till He sees His face right in your life.




-- Smith Wigglesworth

My people pray

"In our country," the American continued, "there are many opinions as to the secret of your great influence. Would you be good enough to give me your own point of view?"


After a moment's pause, Spurgeon said, "My people pray for me."

              -- J.C. Carlile, in his biography, Charles Spurgeon

Spurgeon was considered the greatest preacher of modern times (mid- to late-19th Century). 

Out of Cash

One of our workers said to me at Christmas time, "Wigglesworth, I never was so near the end of my purse in my life." I replied, "Thank God, you are just at the opening of God's treasures." It is when we are at the end of our own that we can enter into the riches of God's resources. It is when we possess nothing that we can possess all things. The Lord will always meet you when you are on the line of living.


-- Smith Wigglesworth

Occasionally . . . Sometimes

The reason the world is not seeing Jesus is because Christian people are not filled with Jesus. They are satisfied with weekly meetings, and occasionally reading the Bible, and sometimes praying. Beloved, if God lays hold of you by the Spirit, you will find that there is an end of everything and a beginning of God, so that your whole body becomes seasoned with a divine likeness of God.


-- Smith Wigglesworth

An Open Door

Before Satan can bring his evil spirits, there has to be an open door . . . How does Satan get an opening? When the saint ceases to seek after holiness, purity, righteousness, truth; when he ceases to pray, stops reading the Word and gives way to carnal appetites. Then it is that Satan comes. . . David said, "Before I was afflicted I went astray..." (Psalm 119:67). Seek the Lord and He will sanctify every thought, every act, till your whole being is ablaze with holy purity and your one desire will be for Him who has created you in holiness.




-- Smith Wigglesworth

Open Wide

Alas! we will not take the receptive attitude of faith. Jesus bids us “ask and receive” that our “joy may be full.” We obey His command in asking, but we do not throw open our souls that we may receive. God’s word to us is, “Open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it” (Psa. 81:10), yet we do not pause in our cries of hunger to accept what is so freely offered.


--Carrie Judd Montgomery, 1881

Red-headed Boy

In our Sunday school we had a boy with red hair. His head was as red as fire and so was his temper. He was such a trial. He kicked his teachers and the superintendent. He was imply uncontrollable. The teachers had a meeting in which they discussed the matter of expelling him. They thought that God might undertake for that boy and so they decided to give him another chance. One day he had to be turned out, and he broke all the windows of the mission. He was worse outside than in. Sometime later we had a ten-day revival meeting. There was nothing much doing in that meeting and people though it a waste of time, but there was one result -- the red-headed lad got saved. After he was saved, the difficulty was to get rid of him at our house. He would be there until midnight crying to God to make him pliable and use him for His glory. God delivered the lad from his temper and made him one of the meekest, most beautiful boys you ever saw. For twenty years he has been a mighty missionary in China. God takes us just as we are and transforms us by His power.




-- Smith Wigglesworth

Get Filled with God

Sometimes I say to people, "You weren't at meeting the other night." They reply, "Oh, yes, I was there in spirit." I say to them, "Well, come next time with your body also. We don't want a lot of spirits here and no bodies. We want you to come and get filled with God." When all the people will come and pray and praise as did these early disciples there will be something doing. People who come will catch fire and they will want to come again. But they will have no use for a place where everything has become formal, dry, and dead.




The power of Pentecost as it came at first came to loose men. God wants us free on every line. Men and women are tired of imitations; they want reality; they want to see people who have the living Christ within, and are filled with Holy Ghost power.



-- Smith Wigglesworth

The Name of Jesus

The name of Jesus is so marvelous. Peter and John had no conception of all that was in that name; neither had the man, lame from his mother' womb who was laid daily at the gate; but they had faith to say, "In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk." And as Peter took him by the right hand, and lifted him up, immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength, and he went into the temple with them, walking and leaping and praising God. God wants you to see more of this sort of thing done. How can it be done? Through His name, through faith in His name, through faith which is by Him.




-- Smith Wigglesworth

Hiding God's Word

The Psalmist said that he had hid God's Word in his heart, that he might not sin against Him; and you will find that the more of God's Word you hide in your heart, the easier it is to live a holy life. He also testified that God's Word had quickened him, and, as you receive God's Word into your being, your whole physical being will be quickened and you will be made strong. As you receive with meekness the Word, you will find faith upspringing within. And you will have life through the Word.
            -- Smith Wigglesworth

When We Measure God ...

Everywhere men are trying to discredit the Bible and take from it all the miraculous . . .


Another preacher said, "It was an easy thing for Jesus to feed the people with five loaves. The loaves were so big in those days that it was a simple matter to cut them into a thousand pieces each." But he forgot that one little boy brought those five loaves all the way in his lunch basket. There is nothing impossible with God. All the impossibility is with us when we measure God by the limitation of our unbelief.

We have a wonderful God, a God whose ways are past finding out, and whose grace and power are limitless.




-- Smith Wigglesworth, 1922

By the Blood

"By the blood of Jesus my whole being is open to the fullness of God, and by that same precious blood I am closed to any power of the enemy.”


--Carrie Judd Montgomery, 1908

By and through prayer . . .

In October 1932 Roberts (Evan Roberts, the "father" of the great Welsh Revival of 1904) wrote, "My work is confined to prayer, and it is to such that I have devoted myself for the last twenty-five years. . . . I work as hard at prayer as if I had undertaken any other form of religious work. . . . By preaching I would reach the limited few -- by and through prayer I can reach the whole of mankind for God."


-- Wesley Duewel, Revival Fire

Revival Praying

Every time in the history of the church revival has come, it has followed extensive prayer and seeking of God's face by some of His children. When we study the history of God's work on earth, we will always find faithful praying saints, often hidden, holding on before Him in prayer, pleading for God to revive His people. . . .


God requires more than casual prayers for revival. He wants His people to hunger and thirst for His mighty working. To seek God's face is far more than occasionally mentioning revival in our prayer. It involves repeated and prolonged prayer. . . A revival seeker is eager to obey God in everything.

"When the Hour Was Come"

MAUNDAY THURSDAY MEDITATION: "And when the hour was come, He sat down and the twelve apostles with Him." "When the hour was come" -- that was the most wonderful hour. There never was an hour, never will be an hour like that hour. What hour was it ? It was an hour of the passing of creation under the blood. It was an hour of destruction of demon power. It was an hour appointed of life coming out of death. It was an hour when all that ever lived came under a glorious covering of the blood. It was an hour when all the world was coming into emancipation by the blood. It was an hour in the world's history when it emerged from dark chaos, a wonderful hour! Praise God for that hour! Was it a dark hour? It was a dark hour for Him, but a wonderful light dawned for us. It was tremendously dark for the Son of Man, but praise God He came through it.

We Have a Big God

We have a big God.  We have a wonderful Jesus.  We have a glorious Comforter.  God's canopy is over you and will cover you at all times, preserving you from evil.  Under His wings shalt thou trust.  The Word of God is living and powerful and in its treasures you will find eternal life.  If you dare trust this wonderful Lord, the Lord of life, you will find in Him everything you need.

--Smith Wigglesworth, 1922

These Things Are Possible for Me

I am glad that Paul was a man. I am glad that Jesus was a Man. I am glad that Daniel was a man, and I am also glad that John was a man. You ask, "Why?" Because I see that whatever God has done for other men, He can do for me. And I fnd God has done such wonderful things for other men that I am always on the expectation that these things are possible for me. -- Smith Wigglesworth

We Never Saw It Like That

And immediately he arose, took up the bed, and went forth before them all; insomuch that they were all amazed, and glorified God, saying, We never saw it on this fashion. --Mark 2:12 If anything stirs me in my life it is such words as these, "We never saw it on this fashion." Something ought to happen all the time so that people will say, "We never saw it like that." If there is anything that God is dissatisfied with, it is stationary conditions. So may people stop on the threshold, when God, in His great plan, is inviting them into His treasury. Oh, this treasury of the Most High, the unsearchable riches of Christ, this divine position which God wants to move us into so that we are altogether a new creation. -- Smith Wigglesworth

Housecleaning for Jesus

You say, "There are many things in my house that would have to be thrown out the window if Jesus came to my home." Would to God we could understand it for He is in the house all the time. All the things ought to go out the window that couldn't stand His eyes on them. Every impression of our hearts that brought trouble when He looked at us ought to go forever. --Smith Wigglesworth

Our Confidence

We have no confidence in the flesh. Our confidence can only be stayed and relied in the One who never fails, in the One who knows the end from the beginning, in the One who is able to come in at the midnight hour as easy as in the noonday, and make the night and the day alike to the man who rests completely in the will of God, knowing that "all things work together for good to them that love Him," and trust in Him. And such trust have we in Him.

--Smith Wigglesworth, 1922

A Big Jesus

He is a big Jesus! If I could measure Him I would be very small. But I cannot measure Him, and I know He is very large. I am glad I cannot measure Jesus but I am glad I can touch Him all the same.

-- Smith Wigglesworth, 1922

Nothing Else is Worthwhile

God is a real essence of joy to us in a time when it seems barrenness, when it seems nothing can help us but the light from heaven, far above the brightness of the sun. Then that touches you, then that changes you, and you realize nothing is worthwhile but that.

-- Smith Wigglesworth, 1922
