Of the two leaders Ezra and Nehemiah, you might think that Ezra was responsible for “spiritual” issues and Nehemiah was in charge of “practical” ones. After all, what could be more practical than rebuilding walls and gates? 

Well you may be surprised to see Nehemiah saturating every move he made in prayer—from his request to the Persian king to the clever resistance he exercised back home with plotting neighbors. 

We have a lot to learn from a person who brought his spirituality into the day-to-day challenges of organizational leadership. Let’s have a look.
