Day 25: Hari Merdeka

And it happened after many days the king of Egypt died. And the sons of Israel sighed because of the bondage, and they cried, and their cry came up to God because of the bondage. And God heard their groaning, and God remembered His covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob. (Exodus 2:23-24)
Hari Merdeka is Malaysia National Day commemorating our independence from British colonial rule. It was the day we became a free and sovereign nation. Since then Malaysia has made good progress and is on her way to becoming a developed nation. While outwardly we have attained national independence, our struggle for true liberty is still a long way off. A vast majority of our population is still living in spiritual darkness. Injustice, corruption, power abuse, racism and violence continue to prevail in the land. Greed, wickedness and hatred continue to fill the hearts of men and citizens denied of their religious liberty.

Prayer Points:
  • The spiritual liberty of people living in darkness
  • Overthrowing of injustice, corruption, violence and racism
  • Restoration of religious freedom
  • Peace, security and harmony in the land.

Prayer Shield: for our elders, pastors and leaders
Leaders’ ministry: Responsive members
