Sarawak Tanah Air Ku

This upcoming state election; just days away must be the hottest one in Sarawak. It’s really tense and the battle rages on. Being a Sarawakian I want the best for my beloved homeland. So I pray this day…..




Our Father in heaven, I ask that godly leaders be raised into positions where they govern with wisdom. May they be like Joseph who helped prosper the nation. May they be like Daniel, fearless in standing for Your cause. May they be great leaders like Moses and Joshua. May our women leaders be highly favoured like Mary and Esther.

May those who get elected be reminded to serve the rakyat humbly . May they be man/woman of their word… keeping their promises and walking the talk.

Help our leaders to have a heart for the poor, lowly, disabled , sick and the down and out. May they be sacrificial in their serving … doing out of love and compassion and not personal glory or gain. Lord, show our leaders how to implement policies that directly benefit them without burdening them.

Grant the elected a mindset to be good stewards of the trust which the rakyat have placed upon them. Help them focus on doing what is right and honourable.

May they be free from the love of money which corrupts. Keep them in the fold of integrity and sincerity.

Lord we also ask for Your forgiveness in the areas we have erred. We ask for forgiveness for not being good stewards and for all the sins committed which have not glorified Your name.

For this election, we ask Father for Your Holy Spirit to move in the hearts of the people. May we choose wisely, without fear or intimidation. Send forth your angels O Lord to fight for righteousness. May Your angels be at every polling station to guard against any unscrupulous acts. In Jesus name we bind all evil tactics. May righteousness prevail for good always triumphs over evil.

In Jesus most precious name I pray , AMEN.

With the battle so fiercely fought , we must be on our knees. We all want a better future and a better tomorrow for our children and the generations to come. May the Land of the Hornbill be a place where we can all live harmoniously with each other and with nature.

God help us and grant us His Grace & Mercy.
