There is a double sided encouragement in the Book of Ezra: one for those who need teams and one for those who have gifts. The Book of Ezra is an encouragement for leaders who are trying to build something, that the right people will be there at the right time and God knows what you need. So if you are leader reading this book, take this encouragement to heart. Highlight and study how God brought all the right people to help with the building of His house and be encouraged – God will do the same for you.

No matter what you do for God, two things are guaranteed: God is going to be faithful to His promises and the enemy is going to try to stop what you are doing.
