Our great God and Heavenly Father,

Thank you for the women and men who serve the state of NSW in leadership roles – and for their families. 

Please provide our new Premier, Mr Dominic Perrottet, with great wisdom, discernment, grace, and courage, as he leads the parliament and people of NSW.

And please give the Premier peace when his schedule invariably takes him away from his family. We pray specifically for his wife, Helen, and for their children. We ask, O Lord, that you might draw near to them and uphold them. Give us a heart to pray for them as they adjust to life in the public eye. 

Fill our Premier with your Holy Spirit such that his leadership and his lifestyle will bring honour and glory to your holy name.

Amen.
