Pakistan is in dire straits and in danger of falling. Pakistan needs your prayers. This is an excerpt from a longer call to prayer by a prayer leader who is concerned about this crucial country.

Deteriorating relationship between Pakistan and U.S.

Realizing the opportunity to break the relationship between America andPakistan, Russia, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and China have approached Pakistan. “Forget America.  We will stand beside you and help you.”--China is asking to open a naval base and an air force base near Gwadar and  it seems this request will be granted, perhaps even by this summer. Gwadar isone of the best deep-water ports in the world – at the head of the oilstraits.  Military equipment is now being purchased from China rather than the U.S. They are also buying military equipment from Russia and having joint exerciseswith them. Pakistan has held joint military exercises with Saudi Arabia, and istraining their military.

In this turmoil, the fanatics and terrorists have seen their opportunity to overthrow the government.  They stormed the streets in many cities.  They blocked entrances in and out of the capital and brought the country to a standstill.  Government, police, and even the military could not stop them without an all-out civil war.  The Supreme Court gave an ultimatum that the issue be resolved and the result was that much of the power of the country was given over to 19 “pirs” (holy men/witchdoctors).  Now again the fanatics’ demands of bringing in sharia law have not been met. (Most in Pakistan are terrified of sharia law knowing that their lives are at stake).  A few days ago these same fanatics began to fill the streets again.

More embarrassing is to learn that an American known as “the most evil man in the world “,George Soros, was the one behind much of this with his support (especiallyfinancial) for these fanatics.   Early this year the government told hisorganization to leave the country, but this weak government now in charge hasnot been able to carry this out. (Pray that he and his influence will be broken over Pakistan.)

What is at stake?   Pakistan is one of the largest Muslim nations in the world-soon to surpass Indonesia in its population. The Muslim world looks to it forits religious education. It is also looked up to because it is the only Muslimnation that has nuclear bombs (probably over 200) and delivery systems.  If thefanatics and militants could take over the country, Iran and its threat would bedwarfed.   There is already a fanatical teaching structure in Pakistan to whichpeople from probably every nation in the world come for training.  This wouldgreatly increase in structure and influence very quickly. 

What is the answer? God must intervene. That happens THROUGH PRAYER.In the 1970s a communist country was about to take over Pakistan. Three daysbefore that, a military coup took place, saving the nation.  This could be oneway God could work. 

PRAY for Pakistan for the following:

1. Not fall into hands of fanatics and sharia law
2. Not fall into hands of communism
3. Restored relations between Pakistan and U.S. 
4. Honest leaders
5. Protection of nuclear weapons
