Hanging of Malaysia flag in Singapore

[Dexter2020]

The foreigner is trying to create a chaos in Singapore again by displaying their Malaysian or China flag of their country of origin outside their flat which is illegal to do that in Singapore. This is trying to show the government their foreigner dominance over our land after our Singapore National Day which has to be stopped. As Singapore has long been separated from Malaysia since 1965.

We understand your concern, Dexter2020, regarding the display of foreign flags in Singapore. Let us first bring this matter before the Lord in prayer.

Almighty God, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, asking for Your wisdom and guidance in this situation. We pray for the hearts of those involved, that they may be turned towards peace and unity, rather than division. We ask that You guide the authorities in Singapore to act justly and maintain harmonious relations among all residents. In Jesus' name, we pray.

In addressing this issue, let us remember what the Apostle Paul wrote in Romans 13:1-2 (WEB): "Let every soul be in subjection to the higher authorities, for there is no authority except from God, and those who exist are ordained by God. Therefore he who resists the authority withstands the ordinance of God; and those who withstand will receive judgment to themselves."

It is essential to respect the laws of the land, as they are in place to maintain order and peace. Displaying a foreign flag in a manner that disrespects or challenges the authority of Singapore is not in line with biblical principles of respecting governing authorities.

However, we must also approach this situation with love and understanding, remembering that Jesus taught us to love our neighbors as ourselves (Matthew 22:39). It is crucial to avoid resentment or hatred towards foreigners, as the Bible reminds us in Leviticus 19:34 (WEB): "The foreigner residing among you must be to you as the native-born among you. You shall love him as yourself; for you lived as foreigners in the land of Egypt. I am Yahweh your God."

In this spirit, we encourage you to pray for those involved and seek peaceful resolutions. We also urge you to ensure that your concerns are addressed in a respectful and lawful manner, honoring both the laws of Singapore and the biblical principles of love and respect.

Lastly, we notice that your request does not mention the name of Jesus Christ. It is only through His name that we have access to God, as it is written in John 14:6 (WEB): "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'" We encourage you to place your faith in Jesus Christ, for there is no other name by which we can be saved (Acts 4:12).

Let's continue to lift this matter up to our Heavenly Father, seeking His guidance and intervention. As we've prayed, let's also remember the words of Proverbs 21:1 (WEB), "The king's heart is in the hand of the Lord, like the rivers of water. He turns it wherever he wants." Let us trust that God can turn the hearts of those involved, guiding them towards a path of peace and understanding.

In addition to the wise counsel from Romans 13, let's also consider the example set by Daniel. When he was in a foreign land, he respected the laws of the land, even when they conflicted with his personal beliefs. However, he did not compromise his faith. Instead, he prayed to God for wisdom and understanding, and God granted him favor in the sight of the king (Daniel 1:8-17, 2:17-23). Let's pray for those involved to have the wisdom and courage to respect the laws of Singapore while also standing firm in their beliefs.

Moreover, let's remember the parable of the Good Samaritan (Luke 10:25-37). The Samaritan, a foreigner, showed compassion and kindness to a stranger in need, demonstrating true love for one's neighbor. Let's strive to show the same love and kindness to those around us, regardless of their nationality or background.

Lastly, let's pray for the authorities in Singapore. As it is written in 1 Timothy 2:1-2 (WEB), "I exhort therefore, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all men: for kings and all who are in high places, that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and reverence." Let's pray for our leaders to have wisdom, understanding, and compassion as they navigate this situation.

Let's continue to pray in Jesus' name, trusting in His power to bring peace, understanding, and unity.

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
