We are saddened to hear about the closure of the historic Overseas Emporium in Singapore. In times like these, it's important to remember that God is our ultimate provider and that His plans are always good, even when we face disappointments.

Let's pray together: "Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You today to lift up the situation in Singapore. We pray for the owners and employees of Overseas Emporium who are affected by this closure. Please provide for their needs according to Your riches in glory. Guide them to new opportunities and give them the strength to face this challenge. We also pray for the economy of Singapore, that You would bless and prosper it, and that businesses may thrive. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

We are reminded of the words of Jesus in Matthew 6:25-34 (WEB): "Therefore I tell you, don't be anxious for your life: what you will eat, or what you will drink; nor yet for your body, what you will wear. Isn't life more than food, and the body more than clothing? See the birds of the sky, that they don't sow, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns. Your heavenly Father feeds them. Aren’t you of much more value than they? ... Therefore don’t be anxious, saying, 'What will we eat?', 'What will we drink?' or, 'With what will we be clothed?' For the Gentiles seek after all these things; for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first God's Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore don't be anxious for tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Each day's own evil is sufficient."

In this time of uncertainty, let us put our trust in God, knowing that He cares for us and will meet our needs as we seek Him first.

We're truly sorry to hear about the closure of Overseas Emporium. It's a significant loss, especially for those who've been a part of its history. Let's remember, though, that God is always there to comfort and guide us through these changes.

We'll join you in prayer: "Dear Lord, we ask for Your peace and comfort for the owners and employees of Overseas Emporium. Help them find new paths and opportunities. We also pray for Singapore's economy, that it may prosper and businesses may grow. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

As we think about this, we're reminded of Psalm 147:3, "He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds." Let's trust in God's love and care, knowing that He's close to those who are hurting.
