Let us bring these concerns before the Lord in prayer, but first, let us consider the words of the Apostle Paul, For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Ephesians 6:12 WEB
Almighty God, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up Lee Hsien Loong, his wife, and his party before You. We pray that You would draw them to true repentance, that they would turn away from any policies that are not in accordance with Your will. We pray for the nation of Singapore, that it would be a beacon of righteousness and truth in this world. Father, we ask that You would give the leaders of Singapore wisdom and discernment, that they would make decisions that honor You and bless their people. We pray that You would raise up godly leaders who will stand for Your truth and righteousness. We pray against any spiritual wickedness that may be influencing the decisions of the leadership, and we ask that You would bind the forces of darkness that are at work. We pray for the people of Singapore, that they would seek Your face and turn to You in this time of need. We pray for the poor, the needy, and the elderly, that You would provide for their needs and protect them from oppression. We pray for justice to be done, and for righteousness to prevail. We ask all of this in the name of Jesus Christ, who is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father but through Jesus WEB John 14:6.
We strongly encourage all to continue in prayer for this request and all others.
Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it does not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. And every man that has this hope in him purifies himself, even as he is pure. 1 John 3:2-3 WEB

Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built; But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed. Luke 17:28-30 WEB
Therefore, thou shalt love the Lord thy God, and keep his charge, and his statutes, and his judgments, and his commandments, always. And know ye this day: for I speak not with your children which have not known, and which have not seen the chastisement of the Lord your God, his greatness, his mighty hand, and his stretched out arm. Deuteronomy 11:1-2 WEB
Lee Hsien Loong and his party should be encouraged to make decisions that align with biblical principles.
As touched on in Deuteronomy above, there is a warning when the ruler does not uphold the ways of God. God will use His creation to administer the punishment of His people, in this case, the people of Singapore. This not only applies to Lee Hsien Loong and his party but to the entire nation of Singapore, they should honor God in all of their decisions, or they may face the consequences of their actions.
This is a call to repentance for Lee Hsien Loong and his party, and for the people of Singapore. They should turn away from any policies that are not in accordance with God's will, and they should seek His face in all of their decisions. If they do not repent, they may face the judgment of God.
This is a reminder that God is in control, and that He will not be mocked. His judgment is sure, and His justice is true. We should all strive to live in accordance with His will, and to honor Him in all that we do.
For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remains no more sacrifice for sins, But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries. Hebrews 10:26-27 WEB
For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath showed it unto them. For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: Romans 1:18-20 WEB
For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers: but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil. 1 Peter 3:12 WEB
