Pray for this

[Dexter2020]

I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the current leadership and immigration policies in Singapore that are contributing to significant hardships faced by our citizens. It has become increasingly evident that many local Singaporeans are being marginalized in favor of foreign workers, leading to a disturbing trend of unemployment and underemployment among our own people. The reliance on contract and platform employment for Singaporeans, combined with a prevailing favoritism towards foreign hires, has rendered initiatives like SkillsFuture ineffective. While these programs may appear to address unemployment on the surface, the reality is that many Singaporeans remain jobless for extended periods, often beyond six months. This neglect of our local workforce is not only unfair but also undermines the very foundation of our economy. Furthermore, I have observed a troubling decline in the quality of service and products available in Singapore, largely attributed to the influx of foreign workers who are often unable to meet the standards expected by customers. As a result, we are witnessing a decline in tourism, with potential visitors opting for destinations where they can expect a better experience. It is disheartening to see many elderly Singaporeans resorting to begging or working menial jobs just to make ends meet. The rising costs of living, coupled with a lack of well-paying job opportunities, have created an untenable situation for many families. Additionally, the frequent breakdowns of public transportation systems further exacerbate these challenges, impacting both residents and businesses. While initiatives like CDC vouchers provide temporary relief, they do not address the root causes of these issues. The policies instituted by the Ministry of Manpower, which appear to prioritize the growth of the foreign population over the welfare of Singaporeans, only serve to deepen the divide. The issue of abortion among Singaporeans is a symptom of these larger problems; banning abortion is not a viable solution to our declining population. Instead, it is essential to create an environment where Singaporeans can thrive, feel secure in their livelihoods, and contribute to the growth of our nation. I urge the government to reevaluate its current approach to immigration and employment policies, ensuring that Singaporeans are given priority in the workforce. It is critical that we address these concerns holistically to improve the standard of living for all citizens and restore faith in our national leadership. Thank you for your attention to these pressing issues. I hope to see meaningful changes that reflect the needs and aspirations of Singaporeans.

 

[Articles]

We understand your deep concern for the welfare of Singapore and its citizens. As we bring this matter before God, let's remember that He is the ultimate authority over 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."

However, this does not mean we cannot advocate for change and pray for wisdom for those in leadership. We are reminded in 1 Timothy 2:1-2, "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."

Let us pray:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You today to lift up the nation of Singapore, its leaders, and its people. Lord, we ask that You grant the government wisdom in managing immigration and employment policies. Help them to see the struggles of the local people and to prioritize their welfare. We pray for fair employment practices that will not marginalize Singaporeans but give them opportunities to thrive and contribute to their nation.

Lord, we also pray for the homeless and the elderly who are struggling to make ends meet. We ask that You provide for their needs and comfort their hearts. We pray for a decrease in the cost of living and an increase in job opportunities that pay fair wages.

Father, we also lift up the issue of abortion. We pray that the root causes of this issue would be addressed, that people would feel secure in their livelihoods and hopeful for the future. We pray for a culture that values life and supports families.

Lord, we know that You have the power to change hearts and minds. We pray for a spirit of unity and love to prevail in Singapore. We ask that You guide the leaders and the people towards solutions that will improve the standard of living for all citizens.

In all these things, Lord, we pray that the name of Jesus Christ would be lifted high. We believe that true change comes from Your hand and that You have the power to heal and restore nations.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Lastly, we encourage you, Dexter2020, to continue to pray and advocate for your nation. Remember that our faith is not just about personal salvation, but also about seeking the welfare of our communities and nations. As it is written in Jeremiah 29:7, "Seek the peace of the city where I have caused you to be carried away captive, and pray to Yahweh for it; for in its peace you shall have peace."

Keep standing in the gap for Singapore, and may God bless your efforts.

We share your concern, Dexter2020. It's disheartening to see our fellow Singaporeans struggling while the economy thrives. We've been praying for our leaders to have wisdom and compassion in their policies, and for the well-being of all citizens. Let's remember that God sees and cares about each one of us. In Psalm 34:18, it says, "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit." Let's trust that He is working behind the scenes, even when we can't see immediate changes. Let's also pray for unity among Singaporeans, that we may stand together and support each other through these challenges. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

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.
