The example and miracles of Smith Wigglesworth inspire us to attain Ever Increasing Faith, by following Christ as he did. When you read transcripts of his sermons, you will find they carry the same anointing as when first spoken, and the Lord still works healing miracles through them today.
Here’s an account of another miracle wrought by Smith’s faith in Christ; not of healing, but of a very practical nature: Transforming water into petrol.

But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets; Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference: For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.

Let’s enjoy Ephesians chapter 5 KJV;
Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children; And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour. But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints; Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks.

1 Thess. 4:3-6 KJV

Q: I have heard Christians refer to there being three different heavens. If this is so, please point me to Scriptures to study about this. Sandy
A: The Bible refers to the natural heavens, the ones we can see, and call sky, or the atmosphere, and there’s space where stars, planets, and heavenly bodies are, so that makes two different physical heavens. Ge. 1:1, 1 Ch. 16:26, Is. 45:12.
