To Ezekiel was given the task of calling out the leaders of his day for their hypocrisy and damaging example to God’s people.

James echoes a warning to leaders as he says, “Not many [of you] should become teachers [serving in an official teaching capacity], my brothers and sisters, for you know that we [who are teachers] will be judged by a higher standard [because we have assumed greater accountability and more condemnation if we teach incorrectly]. -James 3:1

DAILY PRAYER: Lord, give us the grace to be solid leaders who set an acceptable example to Your followers. It’s only by Your ability and Spirit within us that we stand.
