Faithful Servant
Pray for the government to change to hire locals only and not foreigners. As now foreigners are hired unfairly and neglect locals in ###.
 
We understand your concern for the well-being of local workers and the desire for fair hiring practices in your nation. The Bible calls us to pray for our leaders and governments, that they may govern with wisdom, justice, and fairness. As believers, we are instructed to seek the welfare of our communities while trusting in God’s sovereignty over all authorities.

The Scripture reminds us 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."* We are also told 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."*

While we pray for just policies that prioritize the needs of citizens, we must also remember that our ultimate trust is in the Lord, who provides for His people. Proverbs 3:5-6 encourages us, *"Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight."*

We must also be cautious not to harbor bitterness or resentment toward foreigners, for the Bible teaches us to love our neighbors—including strangers among us—as ourselves (Leviticus 19:34, Matthew 22:39). Instead, we pray that God would move the hearts of those in authority to act with integrity, ensuring that hiring practices are fair and that locals are given rightful opportunities.

Let us pray together:

Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts burdened for justice and fairness in our land. You are a God who sees the struggles of Your people and who calls leaders to act with wisdom and righteousness. We lift up our government officials to You, asking that You would grant them discernment to establish policies that honor the dignity of work and provide fair opportunities for all citizens.

Lord, we pray that You would expose any corruption or unfairness in hiring practices and replace it with integrity and justice. Help local workers to find meaningful employment, and may their labor be valued and rewarded fairly. We also ask that You would soften hearts toward those who come from other lands, that they too may be treated with kindness and fairness, as Your Word commands.

Father, we trust in Your provision and sovereignty. Give us patience as we wait for Your will to be done, and help us to respond with grace and wisdom in all things. May our nation reflect Your justice, mercy, and love. We ask all this in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, who alone can bring true change and healing to our land. Amen.

As we wait on the Lord, let us also remember to act with kindness and integrity in our own lives, being a light in our workplaces and communities. If you feel led, consider how you might encourage or support local workers in practical ways while continuing to pray for systemic change. God hears the cries of His people, and He is faithful.
 
We're right there with you, standing in faith for our nation's hiring practices to reflect fairness and justice. It's clear that our local workers need a break, and we're asking God to move in the hearts of our leaders, nudging them towards policies that prioritize our citizens' needs. Let's keep praying, believing that God will expose any unfairness and replace it with righteousness.

We're also reminded of God's love for all people, including those who come from other lands. Let's ask God to soften our hearts towards them, treating them with kindness and fairness, just as He commands in His Word.

As we wait on the Lord, let's also be the change we want to see. Maybe we can reach out to a local worker this week, offering encouragement or support. God sees our efforts and He's faithful to bring about change, one step at a time. Let's trust Him, knowing that He's working all things together for our good and His glory.
 
Lord, we pray for this prayer and family for blessings healing and salvation. Heal and bless. May their lives be a praise and glory unto thee.
Come to the Lord's holy presence. Seek him with all your heart. Cling to his Word and meditate on it moment by moment by positive thoughts and joy in the heart (James 1:2-4), knowing that the Lord is good and to him be all the praise. Seek first God's kingdom and his righteousness (Matthew 6:33). Even though life may feel hard, the Lord's hand will be on you, and he will answer in his time. I am praying for you. Amen.

We want to thank you for allowing us the honor of lifting this burden before the Lord alongside you. It has been our privilege to intercede for fairness and justice in your nation’s hiring practices, praying that God would move the hearts of those in authority to prioritize the well-being of local families and communities. We have asked the Lord to open doors of opportunity for your people, that they may find dignified work and provision, and that wisdom and integrity would guide those making these decisions.

As we wait on the Lord, we encourage you to trust in His perfect timing and sovereignty. He sees the struggles of His people and is faithful to act in ways that bring glory to His name. If you have seen any movement in this area—whether through policy changes, new opportunities, or even small steps toward justice—we would love for you to share a praise report with us so we can rejoice together in what the Lord has done.

If this matter still weighs heavily on your heart and you have yet to see the breakthrough you’re praying for, please don’t hesitate to share an update or post this request again. We are committed to standing with you in persistent prayer, believing that God is at work even when we cannot yet see the fruit of it. Let us continue to seek His will, asking that His justice and mercy would prevail in your land, and that He would use this situation to draw many to Himself.

May the Lord strengthen your faith as you wait on Him, and may you feel His presence and peace in the midst of this struggle. We are praying that God would use this season to deepen your trust in His provision and to remind you that He is the ultimate source of hope and security. Keep seeking Him through His Son, Jesus Christ, who is our advocate and the one who intercedes for us before the Father.

We lift you up again now, asking that the Lord would encourage your heart and make His purposes clear in this situation. In Jesus Name.
