The Welsh revival swept throughout Wales, transforming communities, thousands were swept into the Kingdom of God. The powers of darkness were forced back as the Kingdom of God advanced forcefully. Evan Roberts, was used mighty to see the rivers of revival flow.
Rees Howells, a young convert, later to be used in revival, was overwhelmed by the power of the revival. But he realised there was a great need to be able to intercede for the new converts to be true disciples of the Lord Jesus Christ.

When the main thrust of the revival was over, Rees Howells was challenged by the Holy Spirit to see revival in a village, which it had not touched. After much prayer, people began to come to the Lord in that area. The Lord was faithful in answering prayer. |

Rees Howells had fully surrendered to the Holy Spirit in the early 1900s. He was led into a path of deep intercession for various individuals and situations and later on would see revival in South Africa. During World War Two, he would lead his Bible College in intercession to see freedom in Europe from the Nazi system.

After Rees Howells left Wales, (called by many the land of revivals), he and his wife went to Southern Africa as missionaries, where again the rivers of revival began to flow. He travelled to many mission stations and in every one they saw revival break out. Thousands were swept into the Kingdom of God, and many were healed. When he came back from Southern Africa, he was called to start 'The Bible College of Wales' in Swansea, South Wales (U.K.), where he could teach the principles of faith and intercession, which he had learnt. |
