Summary: TRULY ANOINTED AND INSPIRING
Review: My Pastor lent me a copy of this book and it truly ministered to me in a powerful way. When I started reading it I could not put it down. About that time I had to travel and it was my companion on the plane. The events in the life of Rees Howell was an inspiration to me as it caused me to trust in the power of almighty God accessed in intercession.
The copy was not my own, that is why I am getting one now.
Blessed reading.

Summary: A Timely Message
Review: Norman Grubb writes about the life and ministry of Rees Howells. This book begins around the time of the Welsh Revials and takes us through WWII. Rees Howells was a good man, raised in a good family and separated himself at a young age from worldly entertainments and amusments. This, however, was not enough - he needed a personal vision of Calvary and the filling of the Holy Spirit. Over the years, Howells learned to listen and obey the voice of God. Many miracles of healing and salvation are a result of his ministry of intercession.

The book takes us up to the world-changeing events of WWII and God's plan to squelch the Hitler's plan of mass destruction and world domination. Rees Howells was the director of a Bible school in England and the call of prayer was on the whole school. Diaries and testimonies tell of the victory in prayer that literally changed the course of history.

This book impressed upon me the fact that God did not allow Hitler to succeed because he was an enemy of God and His Word. It is a timely message to a world who is fighting "today's Hitlers" (terrorists). We need to hear the voice of God, believe, obey and interceed by the same Spirit that inspired and led Rees Howells.

Summary: Never the same
Review: Rees Howells Intercessor WILL change your life. Take the time to read this book and I believe, you, like me, will never be the same. You will see how God used an ordinary man to do extraordinary things when he surrendered himself fully to the will of God. This book will touch your heart from the first page to the last.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This is what prayer is meant to be.
Review: Rees Howells, Intercessor is the best book on prayer that one can read. You will be challenged to a different way of thinking on the subject of prayer. Your understanding of the work of the Holy Spirit and God's compassion and His desire for our commitment will be opened up.

I am reading it for the third time and always find something new in it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Not for the faint of heart
Review: The first time I attempted to read this book, I could not read more than a chapter or two without having to put it down. Of all the books I have ever read, except for the Bible, no book has challenged me more than has REES HOWELLS INTERCESSOR. Setting aside my personal theological differences I cannot but be challenged by the dedication of this prayer warrior. His life, his struggles, his apparent failures, and his triumphs, all call me out of my comfort zone to a life of greater commitment to the God I serve. The conviction of that challenge was what kept interrupting my reading. Only when I was ready to subject myself to the same death to self-will Rees Howells endured was I able to go back and read some more. A chapter or two at a time I walked through the life of Rees Howells. More than a reading, this book is an experience.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Rees Howells-Intercessor
Review: This book changed my relationship with the Lord more than any single book (outside of the Bible). It is a must read for anyone, not just those gifted in intercession. The author systematically reveals how God works with Rees Howells to purify his heart and become a true doulos/servant (sold-out bond slave). I will read this book again and again until the return. Oh yeah, bring the kleenex!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Rees Howells - His life is inspiring to say the very least
Review: This book has greatly impacted me. The idea of surrender, sacrifice and relying on God's Holy Spirit for direction (Prov 3:5-6..) I would recommend this book to anyone. With bits of humour in the beginning to the amazing choices that Rees makes which cause you to reflect on the strength of your own faith.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: They that are led by the Spirit of God, are the sons of God.
Review: This book is the story about a man whose life and ministry was uniquely guided by the Holy Spirit. It is the story of a humble man who learned the secret of cultivating a rich, inside life with God through prayer, and whose life bore abundant fruit as a consequence.

Although this type of life has to be experienced in order to be understood, Rees Howells does offer some compelling insight on how the Holy Ghost dealt with the very inner reaches of his heart in order to teach him obedience. Mr. Howells is very candid about how, and in what ways his flesh fought the leading of the spirit; how he had to do as the apostle Paul admonishied and "cast down reasonings and bring every thought to the obedience of Christ.

This is a wonderful book that can be enormously edifying, whether you are reading it as I did, as part of your own personal devotional time with God, or in a group Bible study.

Put simply, if you want to read a book about being a true disciple of Jesus, about what it means to count the cost, take up your cross and follow Him, Rees Howells: Intercessor is the book for you. But a word of caution: the type of life set forth in this book is not the run-of-the-mill, intellectual Christianity that so predominates our popular culture in the 21st Century. This book is a call to a rugged faith, a call to "earnestly contend for the faith that was once delivered to the saints."

Read it prayerfully, and get ready to be "transformed by the renewing of your mind." For this book will compel the serious Christian to "present your body as a living sacrifice to God..."

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A life changing experience!
Review: This book on the life of Rees Howells is a must read for anyone desiring greater intimacy with God through prayer. I have read the book twice, the second time after searching for it for almost two years. The simplicity and profoundness of this man,s prayer life demonstrates that God simply desires for us to love and reverence Him out of purity of heart. I definitely recommend this book to anyone who wants to be spiritually revived.
