Rees Howells

If you’ve taken an interest in books on prayer, chances are you’ve come across the name Rees Howells. Brother Howells, who was born in the late 19th century, served as a missionary in Africa and started a Bible college in Wales—his birthplace. Although well-known for these important ministries, Howells is best known for his prayer ministry. In the years leading up to World War 2, he said, “The world became our parish and we were led to be responsible to intercede for countries and nations.” As turbulence in the nations increases, I believe more and more Christians are going to sense a similar call to prayer. Be sure to answer that call. As with Rees Howells, your intercession can make a world of difference. Now that’s something to pray about!
