Smith Wigglesworth- Divine Activation

As believers, we are called not just to be Christians but to go and do, fulfilling the high call of Heaven. We were created to go, do, and bear much fruit. In each of us, there is a need to do and bear fruit. It is not just about being busy doing something but fulfilling the purpose of Heaven. It is about working together with Him and producing something that is eternal. Filling the purpose as you work as a son with his Father is a great joy.

“We then, as workers together with Him also plead with you not to receive the grace of God in vain.”

2 Corinthians 6: 1

How many of us think about the joy of being a worker together with the Lord Most High. We must develop a powerful relationship with Him in the Secret Place. Smith Wigglesworth said:

“God is creating a hunger and thirst. I see it all over. There are people who begin a waiting on God and they do not know what they are waiting for – they have no idea. I believe that God is making the things so that you cannot get out of it. You may refuse it and you may come within its reach and come outside the boundaries of it; but it is for you. It is a personal baptism- it is not a church baptism. It is for the body of believers which is to be clothed with the power and unction of the Spirit by this glorious waiting.”

Jesus instructed His disciples to wait until they received the baptism of the Holy Spirit, who would empower them to be witnesses. The Holy Spirit longs for us to come and wait in His Presence, and as we do and as we allow Him, to transform us, taking us from one level of glory to another. It is an investment of our time to know Him and to be known by Him. This waiting involves us learning to hear by listening with listening and then to obey. Sometimes we spend so much time following the crowd and doing what the crowd does instead of following Him.

In these last Days, we are to be found occupying until He comes. Smith explained:

“All in Christ will be ready, and you have got to decide whether you are in that or not. The Scripture says in the first verse of Romans eighth chapter:

“There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.”

Romans 8: 1

What a security to know that we can be assured and confident that as we abide in Him, we are kept. Not in our opinions but in the truth found only in Him. Smith added:

“I want you to see this morning that the Master had no less idea than a river through everyone. Whatever you think about it- Jesus would have your salvation to be as a river and I am sure that Jesus was the ideal for us all. The lack today is the lack of apprehension of that blessed fulness of Christ. He came to do nothing less than embody us with the same manifestation as He had ‘to do.”

Jesus was the Son of God, but He came to do the will of the Father. Smith added:

“We find that Jesus began to ‘do’ and ‘teach.’ And the believers should always be so full of the manifestation of the power of God that in the Name of Jesus we can absolutely destroy the power of Satan.”

Sadly, so many believers do nothing or get distracted doing what they think they should be doing. We must learn to do what we are supposed to do in the current season. Smith added:

“We are in the world- not of it. He overcame it and to subdue it unto God we are in the world- overcomers. We are nothing but in Christ we are more than conquerors through the blood- more than a match for satanic powers on every line and may the Lord so let us see that we must be loosed from ourselves, for if you examine yourself you will be natural; but if you look at God, you will be supernatural. If you have a great God, you will have a little devil; if you have a big devil, you will have a little God, so may the Lord let us see that we must be so full of the order of the Spirit of life that we are always overcoming him which had the power of death- even the devil.”

We are living in an hour of increased and intense spiritual warfare. Smith said:

These are the last days; the days of the falling away. These are days when Satan is having a great deal of power. But we must keep in mind that Satan has no power only as he is allowed.

The Holy Spirit is doing mighty work in us that we might be free to do and bear much fruit. Smith explained:

It is a great thing to know that God is loosing you from the world, loosing you from a thousand things. You must seek to have the mind of God on all things. If you don’t, you will stop His working.

If we will learn how to develop ears to hear by seeking His face in the Secret Place, listening and obeying His voice, He will give us opportunities. Yes, opportunities to bring Him glory. We spend so much time trying to make opportunities, when He is able to create them for us.

Smith explained:

But you know we shall never know the mind of God till we learn to know the voice of God. The striking thing about Moses is that it took him forty years to learn human wisdom, forty years to know his helplessness, and forty years to live in the power of God. One hundred and twenty years it took to teach that man, and sometimes it seems to me it will take many years to bring us just where we can tell the voice of God, the leadings of God, and all His will concerning us.

As long as we are on this earth we must press forward with all diligence that we might be just like Him. We are not called to be noise but a voice, and we have nothing to give until we receive the fresh, warm bread of His Presence. Smith explained:

I see that all revelation, all illumination, everything that God had in Christ was to be brought forth into perfect light that we might be able to live the same, produce the same, and be in every activity sons of God with power. It must be so. We must not limit the Holy One. And we must clearly see that God brought us forth to make us supernatural, that we might be changed all the time on the line of the supernatural, that we may every day live so in the Spirit, that all of the revelations of God are just like a canvas thrown before our eyes, on which we see clearly step by step all the divine will of God.

The Lord desires for us to dwell in the overflow where we have an abundance. Smith added:

Unless we are very wise, we can easily interfere and quench the

power of God which is upon us. It is an evident fact that one man in a

meeting, filled with unbelief, can make a place for the devil to have a seat. And it is very true, that if we are not careful we may quench the Spirit of some person who is innocent but incapable of helping himself. “We then that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak.” (Romans 15:1). If you want an assembly full of life you must have one in which the Spirit of God is manifested. And in order to keep at the boiling pitch of that blessed incarnation of the Spirit, you must be as simple as babies; you must be as harmless as doves and as wise as serpents (Matthew 10:16).

We are called to walk by a higher order in which we learn His thoughts and His ways. We are not called to walk according to the politically correct message of the hour or what flows with the current narrative. We must walk with wisdom and bring a message forged in the Secret Place.

Smith explained:

I always ask God for a leading of grace. It takes grace to be in a meeting because it is so easy if you are not careful, to get on the natural side. The man who is a preacher, if he has lost the unction, will be well repaid if he will repent and get right with God and get the unction back. It never pays us to be less than always spiritual, and we must have a divine language and the language must be of God. Beloved, if you come into real perfect line with the grace of God, one thing will certainly take place in your life. You will change from that old position of the world’s line where you were judging everybody, and where you were not trusting anyone, and come into a place where you will have a heart that will believe all things; a heart that under no circumstances reviles again when you are reviled.

Smith added:

You will find that when you speak unto God in the new tongue He gives you, you enter into a close communion with Him hitherto never experienced. Talk about preaching! I would like to know how it will be possible for all the people filled with the Holy Ghost to stop preaching. Even the sons and daughters must prophesy. After the Holy Ghost comes in, a man is in a new order in God. And you will find it so real that you will want to sing, talk, laugh, and shout. We are in a strange place when the Holy Ghost comes in.

Smith further explained:

I clearly see that we ought to have spiritual giants in the earth, mighty in apprehension, amazing in activity, always having a wonderful report because of their activity in faith. I find instead that there are many people who perhaps have better discernment than you, better knowledge of the Word than you, but they have failed to put it into practice, so these gifts lie dormant.
