People did whatsoever they found fit;  they  installed home based prophets , Levite&#8217;s and priest as per the families demands ( Jdg 18:1,19:1,21:25 ).  This also encouraged  paganism and idolatry.<\/p>\n<p>Leadership is an essential component in any organisation and the animal kingdom at large. It encompasses the practical skills and ability of an individual or  group to lead, influence or guide other individuals, teams, or entire organizations towards its objectives.<\/p>\n<p>Leaderless families ,institutions, countries ,churches  etc have a  risk of falling into waywardness, recklessness, carelessness and  a life devoid of restrain and control. This brings about  haphazardness  in any operation. Leaders make known the path to be followed ,set out objectives and target to be met and offer timelines and guidelines of any operations.<\/p>\n<p>Leaders are important because they shoulder the weight of others , absorb the shock  of  failure and repel attacks of critics. They are the main defenders of  institutions and organizations hence shield them  from falling. If law and order is to be enjoyed ,leadership is critical. Where there is no leadership, people cast off restrain. For any organization to florish, leaders must respected, esteemed and supported .<\/p>\n<p>Further readings:<br \/>\nRom 13:1-3<br \/>\n1Tim 2:1-4<br \/>\nHeb 13:7<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\ude4f Blessed Day \ud83d\ude4f<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jdg 17:6 In those days Israel had no king; everyone did as they saw fit.
