Smith
Wigglesworth was born in England in 1859. Immediately after his
conversion as a boy, he had a concern for the salvation of
others and won people to Christ, including his mother. Even so,
as a young man, he could not express himself well enough to give
a testimony in church, much less preach a sermon. Wigglesworth
said that his mother had the same difficulty in expressing
herself that he did. This family trait, coupled with the fact
that he had no formal education because he began working twelve
hours a day at the age of seven to help support the family,
contributed to Wigglesworth's awkward speaking style. He became
a plumber by trade, yet he continued to devote himself to
winning many people to Christ on an individual basis.
In 1882, he married Polly Featherstone, a vivacious young woman
who loved God and had a gift of preaching and evangelism. It was
she who taught him to read and who became his closest confidant
and strongest supporter. They both had compassion for the poor
and needy in their community, and they opened a mission, at
which Polly preached.
Significantly, people were miraculously healed when Wigglesworth
prayed for them. In 1907, Wigglesworth's circumstances changed
dramatically when, at the age of forty-eight, he was baptized in
the Holy Spirit. Suddenly, he had a new power that enabled him
to preach, and even his wife was amazed at the transformation.
This was the beginning of what became a worldwide evangelistic
and healing ministry that reached thousands. He eventually
ministered in the United States, Australia, South Africa, and
all over Europe. His ministry extended up to the time of his
death in 1947. |
