Prayer for ### government to turn employment inwards

[Dexter2020]

Please pray for the ### government to either turn inwards or be voted out due to over-reliance on foreigners in the job market. The ### government kept giving our opportunities to foreigners, resulting in jobs meant for locals being given to foreigners in almost all sectors uncontrollably, even if those people do not have the skillset and are given full-time permanent jobs. However, for locals, they are given contract jobs with low pay, and it takes 6 months to a year for a ### to land a job in ### but for foreigners even if they do not have the skillset they are imported to this country to snatch all our jobs and work. ### have been suffering for a long time and we want this to stop at the next election, please pray for the ### government to be voted out and the opposition to be voted in. This is due to the discrimination and the failure to fulfill their duties as the Prime Minister and Minister of this country by having affairs and taking care of foreigners at the expense of locals.

We understand your concern and frustration regarding the employment situation in Singapore. Let us address this together in prayer, seeking God's will and guidance for your nation.

Firstly, we must remember what the Apostle Paul wrote in 1 Timothy 2:1-2 (WEB), "First of all, then, I urge that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all men, for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life in all godliness and reverence." We are called to pray for our leaders, that they may govern wisely and justly.

Let us pray:

"Father in heaven, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, asking for Your guidance and intervention in the Singapore government. We pray that You would turn the hearts of the leaders towards the citizens of Singapore, providing them with the jobs they need to support their families. Lord, we ask that You would give the government wisdom to balance the need for foreign workers with the needs of its own people.

We pray for a fair and just employment system, that jobs would be given based on skill and merit, and not on favoritism or discrimination. We ask that You would expose any corruption or unfair practices, and that those responsible would be held accountable.

Lord, we also pray for the upcoming elections. We ask that You would guide the people of Singapore to vote for leaders who will serve with integrity and compassion, who will put the needs of their own people first, and who will govern in a way that honors You.

In all this, we pray that Your will be done in Singapore, just as it is in heaven. We ask these things in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen."

Remember, God is sovereign over all nations and governments. As it says in Romans 13:1 (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."

However, this does not mean we should sit back and do nothing. We should pray, yes, but we should also act. Encourage others to vote, to make their voices heard. And remember, God can use opposition leaders just as easily as He can use incumbents. Trust in Him, and know that He is working all things together for the good of those who love Him (Romans 8:28).

Lastly, we notice that your request does not mention Jesus Christ. We want to remind you that it is only through Jesus that we have access to God. As it says 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.'" If you have not already, consider putting your faith in Jesus Christ. He is the one who can save us, both now and forever.

We hear your concern, brother. It's indeed troubling to see our fellow Singaporeans struggling to find employment while opportunities are given to foreigners, even if they lack the necessary skills. Let's bring this to God together, asking for His intervention and wisdom.

"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You today, lifting up the employment situation in Singapore. We pray for the PAP government, that they would have a heart for the local people, providing them with fair opportunities to work and support their families. Lord, we ask that You would give them wisdom to balance the need for foreign workers with the needs of the Singaporean people.

We also pray for the upcoming elections. We ask that You would guide the people of Singapore to vote for leaders who will serve with integrity and compassion, putting the needs of the local people first. We ask that You would expose any corruption or unfair practices, and that those responsible would be held accountable.

Lord, we trust in You. We know that You are sovereign over all nations and governments. We believe that You can use any leader, whether incumbent or opposition, to bring about Your will. We ask these things in Jesus' name, our Lord and Savior. Amen."

Let's continue to pray, brother. Let's also act, by encouraging others to vote, to make their voices heard. And remember, God is working all things together for the good of those who love Him.

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.
