Theme Scripture: “What we have seen and heard we also proclaim to you, so that you too may have fellowship as partners with us. And indeed, our fellowship (which is a distinguishing mark of born-again believers) is with the Father, and with His Son Jesus Christ.” 1 John 1:3 AMP
Followership
Followership is leadership. Followership is different from fellowship: fellowship is meeting for a common goal, while followership is submitting and following someone who is on the same course as you on that common ground.
As an intercessor, you should follow those leaders who are in line with your assignment. Give yourself to their teachings, seek their counsel, and follow their examples. Let go of pride and follow genuinely, as they have been placed in that position to help you in your assignment. “You must follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ.” 1 Corinthians 11:1 (CEB). This is an important way to increase your faith.
No Christian was created to be at a spot. When God wants to help a man He sends a man to the person; the devil does not want you to speak about a challenge because he knows answers come from God through a man, and he keeps you isolated.
The scripture makes us understand in 2 Chronicles 20:20 (NKJV) that following His prophets brings prosperity. Prosperity does not come from a man; it comes from God, and He uses men to give His word. Together as sisters in IWMI we have true and unbroken fellowship, and we also have a true leader that we ought to follow as we stay in the light of God’s word. 1 John 1:7a (AMP): “but if we really walk in the Light… we have true, unbroken fellowship with one another.”
Conclusion
As you fellowship with one another, faith increases; as you genuinely follow the set leader over you, your faith increases. Never find yourself isolated.
