Deliverance is always found on 'the mount'; living faith must first prove to God that it has taken His word and promise for victory.

Rees Howells

Rees Howells (1879–1950) war ein walisischer Evangelist, Missionar und Gründer des Bible College of Wales in Swansea. Bekannt wurde er durch sein Konzept stellvertretender Fürbitte sowie durch intensive Gebetstreffen zur Beeinflussung des Verlaufs des Zweiten Weltkriegs. Für heutige Bibelleser veranschaulicht sein Leben ein radikales Gebetsvertrauen, wirft durch mystisch-prophetische Deutungen weltpolitischer Wendepunkte und hohe persönliche Opfer jedoch auch theologische und ethische Fragen auf.
