His style was direct, practical, and intensely experiential, emphasizing absolute trust in God, obedience to Scripture, bold prayer, and the expectation that the gifts and power of the Holy Spirit remained active in the life of the church.Wigglesworth's sermons and writings, including Faith That Prevails, helped shape Pentecostal and charismatic spirituality for later generations. His message centered on living faith rather than religious formality: faith that acts, prays, receives, resists fear, and expects God to intervene.
