And I commanded your judges at that time saying, Hear the causes between your brothers, and judge righteously between a man and his brother, and the stranger with him. You shall not respect persons in judgment. You shall hear the small as well as the great. You shall not be afraid of the face of man, for the judgment is God’s. (Deuteronomy 1:16-17a)
In order for justice and righteousness to be established in our beloved nation, all the respective bodies namely the Judiciary, the MACC, the AG’s Chambers, the Royal Malaysian Police and also the Bar Council need to be independent, without control and with full authority to carry out their respective roles and responsibilities. For greater effectiveness in each of these bodies, they must be held accountable for what they do and do not do. Abuse of power needs to be made known and checked quickly. The setting up of a Royal Commission of Inquiry when abuse of powers are highlighted is a means by which the matter can be addressed as the powers of the Royal Commission are wider than a judge and can be effective provided the scope given is sufficiently wide
Prayer Points:
- These bodies to be held accountable for any injustice, corruption or power abuse
- Media to play active role in highlighting and holding these bodies accountable for any abuses or corruption
- An effective and independent Royal Commission of Inquiry to investigate such abuses and corruption.
Prayer Shield - for our elders, pastors and leaders
Leaders’ ministry: Able leader
