In other words, Holy Spirit will start to produce fruit and Godly change into your personality and life. But Holy Spirit always needs knowledge to work with and individual Scripture verses give Him knowledge in which He can start molding and transforming process within you. It’s Word and Spirit working together that will start transformation and sanctification process within each person.

For those who would like to read a good book on this man, there is a small 157 page paperback book titled "Smith Wigglesworth - Apostle of Faith." The author is Stanley Howard Frodsham. You can click on link and order it from Parable.com Christian bookstore online. It talks about all of his "secrets" and a lot of unbelievable healings that he had in his ministry. In addition to healing ministry that he had, he also was a powerful evangelist and won many souls to Kingdom of God. He traveled throughout most of Europe and United States.

In all my research this man, in my opinion, may have been one of greatest eagles to have ever walked this earth. He truly tapped into real power of God and God used him mightily in getting people saved, healed and delivered.

The funny thing about him is that most Christians have never heard of him. He was non-denominational. He did not belong to any one Church or denomination and he went wherever Holy Spirit would lead him. He perfectly followed leadings he received from Holy Spirit on a daily basis as to where he should go, what he should do, who he should see, etc.

They say his second secret, besides his high level of faith that was responsible for all of his success, was his ability to mesh with and follow leadings of Holy Spirit on a daily basis - and that is what being a real eagle for God is all about. Eagles have to learn to fly on strong wind thermals in order to be able to fly to heights that no other bird can - and Eagles of God have to be able to mesh with and follow leadings and directions of Holy Spirit if they want to accomplish great things for God. That is why I call this man a True Eagle of God - because he was able to master skill of being able to read and move with Holy Spirit on a daily basis.

God obviously doesn't like proud boasters and people who seek to build themselves up at expense of others.

Therefore when you do good things for other people do not do it out of pressure or for you own personal gain but without thinking about yourself point out good qualities of that person instead of comparing their qualities to yours.

Philippians 2:3 Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than themselves.

Jesus said "deny yourself" in which I take to mean deny yourself of pleasures of this world that are sin in order to live Holy.

It could also mean to refuse to believe in or accept your own ability to live a good life without Jesus and to give everything to God to take care of, which would be appropriate way to live.

Matthew 16:24 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, "If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.

In conclusion if you want to be on side of God by not being selfish its important to keep your mind off of your problems (Ph. 4:8-9). Equally consider needs of others with your own needs (Mt.22:39) Take no thought for your life. (Mt. 6:25) Esteem others better than yourself. (Ph. 2:3) And to deny yourself by not giving in to pleasures of sin. (Mt.16:24).
