Yup. They are leading, which is their job, included in the time dedicated to their god. Like a warrior in the appropriate subcult, who's fyrd service/raiding time is included in the time dedicated to their religion. For a Devotee, I'd say about half his cult-devoted time is spent on the throne doing king/chieftain things.
