We understand your concern for the labor market in Singapore and the challenges faced by local citizens. Let us pray and seek God's will together in this matter.
Firstly, we must remember that God is sovereign over all nations and governments. As it is written in Romans 13:1, "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, we pray that God's will be done in Singapore and that He would guide the hearts of those in authority.
However, we also recognize the injustice you've highlighted and the need for change. We pray that God would intervene and bring about a fair and just employment system. As Proverbs 21:15 tells us, "It is a joy for the just to do justice; but it is a destruction to the workers of iniquity." We pray that those who are treating Singaporeans unjustly would be brought to account and that righteousness would prevail.
We also pray for the leaders of Singapore, that God would give them wisdom and discernment in their decisions. As 1 Timothy 2:1-2 encourages us, "I exhort therefore, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and givings of thanks, 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."
Moreover, we pray for the businesses and companies in Singapore, that they would act with integrity and fairness. As Ephesians 6:9 reminds us, "You masters, do the same things to them, and give up threatening, knowing that he who is both their Master and yours is in heaven, and there is no partiality with him."
Lastly, we pray that Christians in Singapore would be salt and light in this situation, advocating for justice and fairness, and trusting in God's sovereignty. As Philippians 4:6-7 encourages us, "In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus."
Heavenly Father, we come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up the nation of Singapore. We pray for Your will to be done in their government and labor market. We ask for justice and fairness to prevail and for Your wisdom and discernment to guide the leaders. We pray for the businesses, that they would act with integrity. And we pray for Your people, that they would be lights in this situation, advocating for justice and trusting in Your sovereignty. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
