Battling Spiritual Darkness in Pakistan

Battling Spiritual Darkness in Pakistan
A prayer leader friend focusing on Pakistan writes: "We have been focussing prayer on 8 pir sites in the form of an 8-pointed star with the Uch Sharif shrine (#9) in the middle. All of these shrines are located in Pakistan. 
 
At the beginning of this prayer action the Lord showed the following to one intercessor:  "I saw the map of Afghanistan and Pakistan and overit was a huge hand holding an uprooted plant. This plant was extremely ugly, with profuse black, dried up branches and leaves, twisted and matted. But the root was one huge long white taproot...."
 
There is an ancient, pre-islamic religious, spiritistic root in these nations that has more to do with Hinduism/Buddhism.  And there are very powerful pirs, both dead and alive who keep this spiritism alive. Such pirs, islamic spirit mediums, have a huge influence over political leaders and also empower the Taliban in both Afghanistan and Pakistan. Now is the time for this huge long white taproot to be uprooted by prayer. 
 
1. Pray for the Light of the Gospel to penetrate these places and that God will send prayer teams to these sites.      
2. Pray for the protection, health and growth of local Christians.    
3. Pray that the power and influence of these pirs and pir sites will be broken over the government and people of Pakistan. May many of the pirs and their followers, including politicians and business people, turn to Christ.
