Good Leaders Need God

The Bible books of Ezra and Nehemiah tell how these two holy, righteous men led the Israelites to begin rebuilding the temple in Jerusalem.  Ezra and Nehemiah provided strong leadership for their people, so they could be successful.

When people step into leadership positions, they have an obligation to be role models for their followers.  This duty is even more important if they are working for God.

Since God knows everything, people cannot cover up their mistakes and get away with it.  While God holds us accountable (and we need this badly), all we need to do is ask for forgiveness and take His direction for getting back on the right path.
