He came forth. He came forth to be life and power that we might be able to loose the things that were bound, that His glory might be evidenced. There was a dear woman, her heart was bad, poor soul, her feet were swelled. When the devil gets your eyes he makes you look at death. I said, "I believe the Lord wants you to have His message." I saw she saw death. It is a tremendous power Satan has when we haven't our eyes on Jesus, but He is alive, and He is risen to make everything living, and His glory is alive for evermore. I thought I would show this dear woman that He has the keys and she might take the promise for a new heart (Psalm 91) and "with long life will I satisfy him." "Oh," she said, "it is a new word to me." "Yes," I said, "all revelation is new." Three days did wonders. She had risen right into the condition of this life. She said, "It is Amen, I have a new heart, my legs are not swelled." It is no good without it is the Amen from above. The Amen--what does it mean--"let it be." It was Jesus who said it--it was He who was Clothed who said it--The One from heaven, the One who had won the victory, and God wants us to do it in His place. * * * Oh, I remember one day stepping into a barber's shop where I heard a man moaning pitifully, with a shade over his eyes. "What is the matter," I asked. "Doctor says it is inflammation and will always be like this." "In the Name of Jesus," I cried, "I command you to go." The man then said, "It's done, I am free." Where is He? I tell you He is risen. It was He that acted. Oh, to be so closely interwoven with His great Heart and it's done.--Did it finish there? No! The man came and got saved and baptized in the Holy Ghost. It is joy unspeakable and full of glory--it is impossible for it to be told. The Acts of the Apostles will never be finished till we get into the glory. ======================================================================== Source: https://sermonindex.net/speakers/smith-wigglesworth/on-resurrection-power/ ========================================================================
