Scripture Passage: Genesis 26:6-11
The People Become Like the Leader
The people will become like the leader. Isaac lied that his wife was his sister; interestingly, his father, Abraham had also told a similar lie before the birth of Isaac and although there is no evidence to show that Isaac was aware of this wrong action of his father, he did the same thing.
Whatever a leader does, whether it is known to his followers or not, he can be sure that someday they will repeat his actions because the people do become like the leader.
Prayer: Father, give me grace to be a good example to those I lead.
