A person cannot see God with his own eyes, but a believer has the opportunity to communicate with him spiritually through prayer. Prayer passed through the soul is a powerful force that binds the Almighty and man. In prayer, we thank and glorify God, ask for blessings for good deeds and turn to him with requests for help, life guidelines, salvation and support in grief. We pray to him for our health and well-being, and ask him for all the best for our relatives and friends. Soul conversation with God can take place in any form. The Church does not forbid turning to the Almighty in simple terms coming from the soul. But still, the prayers that are written by the saints carry a special energy that has been prayed for centuries.
The Orthodox Church teaches us that prayers can be addressed to the Most Holy Theotokos, and to the holy apostles, and to the saint whose name we bear, and to other saints, asking them for prayerful intercession before God. Among the many well-known prayers, there are those that have passed the test of time, and to which believers turn for help when they need simple human happiness. Prayers with a request for all good things, for good luck and happiness for every day are collected in the Prayer Book for well-being.
Prayer to the Lord for all good things
This prayer is read when they need general well-being, happiness, health, success in daily affairs and undertakings. She teaches to appreciate what the Almighty has given, to rely on the will of God and to believe in his power. They turn with her to the Lord God before going to bed. They read a prayer in front of holy images and lit church candles.
“Son of God, Lord Jesus Christ. Take away everything sinful from me, and add a little of everything good. Give a piece of bread to the path, but help save your soul. I don’t need much contentment, I would live to see better times. Faith will be my holy reward, and I will know that I will not be executed. Let not everything be fine, I really need your help. And may the soul soon receive what I truly lack. And may your will be done. Amen!"
Orthodox prayer for well-being
Prayer is designed to help in difficult life periods, when failures gather into a black streak and roll trouble after trouble. They read it in the morning, in the evening, and in difficult moments for the soul.
“Have mercy on me, Lord, Son of God: my soul is mad with evil. Lord, help us. Give me, let me be satisfied and I, like a dog from grains falling from the meal of Your servants. Amen.
Have mercy on me, O Lord, Son of God, Son of David according to the flesh, as if Thou had mercy on Canaanite: my soul is mad with anger, rage, evil lust and other pernicious passions. God! Help me, I cry to Thee, not walking on earth, but dwelling at the right hand of the Father in heaven. Hey, Lord! Give me a heart with faith and love to follow Your humility, goodness, meekness and long-suffering, and in Your eternal Kingdom I will be able to partake of the meal of Your servants, whom you have chosen. Amen!"
Prayer to Nicholas the Wonderworker for well-being on the way
Travelers setting off on a long journey ask St. Nicholas for a happy journey. In order not to get lost and not get lost on a trip, in order to meet kind people on the way and get help in case of problems, a prayer is read before the road:
“O St. Nicholas of Christ! Hear us, sinful servants of God (names), praying to you, and pray for us, unworthy, our Sovereign and Master, be merciful to us, create our God in this life and in the future, may he not repay us according to our deeds, but according to your own will give us goodness. Deliver us, saint of Christ, from the evils that are upon us, and tame the waves, passions and troubles that rise upon us, so that for the sake of your holy prayers we will not be attacked and we will not be mired in the abyss of sin and in the mud of our passions. Moth, Saint Nicholas, Christ our God, give us a peaceful life and the remission of sins, but salvation and great mercy to our souls, now and forever, and forever and ever. Amen!"
If there is a dangerous road ahead, a risk to health and life, they read the troparion to Nicholas the Wonderworker:
“The rule of faith and the image of meekness, the abstinence of the teacher, reveal thee to your flock, which is the truth of things; for this sake, you have acquired high humility, rich in poverty, father hierarch Nicholas, pray to Christ God that our souls be saved.
A short prayer to Archangel Michael for every day
Prayers to the Archangel Michael are considered protective. Prayer "talismans" are used to facilitate everyday life, prevent trouble and illness, protect yourself from robberies and attacks. You can turn to the saint before doing any important business.
“Holy Archangel of God Michael, with your lightning sword, cast away from me the spirit of the evil one that tempts me. O great Archangel Michael of God, conqueror of demons! Defeat and crush all my enemies, visible and invisible, and pray to the Lord Almighty, may the Lord save and save me from sorrows and from every disease, from deadly ulcers and vain death, now and forever and forever and ever. Amen!"
Strong prayer-repentance to the saints for help in all matters
Prayer requires simple preparation and spiritual cleansing. The words of the prayer must be memorized, and before the prayer itself, it is necessary to exclude dairy and meat products from your diet for three days. They read a prayer on the fourth day before going to church. It is forbidden to talk to anyone on the way to the temple. Before entering the church, they cross themselves and read the prayer a second time. In the church, seven candles are placed to the icons of saints and a prayer is read. The last time the holy words of prayer are pronounced at home:
“Pleasing saints of God, my heavenly patrons! I beg you for protection and help. For me, a sinner, a servant of God (name), pray with our God Jesus Christ. For forgiveness of sins for me, beg for a blessed life and a happy share. And by your prayers, may my aspirations come true. Let him teach me humility, let love bestow, save me from sorrows, illnesses and earthly temptations. Let me worthily walk the earthly path, coping with earthly affairs with success and being worthy of the Kingdom of Heaven. Amen!"
Fasting is also adhered to on the fourth day, otherwise the prayer will not have sufficient power of action.
Words have a very strong influence on the human mind. Especially when it comes to turning to God. It is often said that prayer can change Fate and life, and this is true. A believer strives to pray, which means that sooner or later he begins to think about how to do it. The main questions are as follows:
- what to prefer: the canonical text of the prayer or to state the request in your own words?
- Should you pray alone or with your family?
- Is it better to read the prayer aloud or silently?
In fact, these are not so difficult questions. Much depends on the situation and the meaning of your prayer. It must be understood that for certain cases there are canonical prayers that must be read as they are written in the original. These include, for example, morning prayers and evening rules, as well as prayers before meals. They must be read together and aloud. Of course, one person can say the text of the prayer, but all family members will be present, pronouncing the text to themselves and together pronounce the word “amen” at the end.
In Christianity, there are very strong prayers that are addressed to the patron saints, the Virgin Mary and God. They have been passed down for centuries and are important in that they contain the most exact words. The prayer "Our Father" is very special. Its text must be known to every believer. This prayer is used in many life situations because it turns out to be the most powerful of all prayers. By reading it, you always put yourself under the protection of the Lord.
How to read the canonical prayer
Prayers are written in church language, which means that sometimes there may be difficulties in understanding the text. If you do not understand exactly what you are reading, then do not bother reading it: is there any point in this? Prayer is a conscious appeal to God. Therefore, before reading the canonical prayer, look either at its translation on modern language or ask the priest to explain the text of the prayer.
Since they pray in front of the icons, get a red corner in the house. Standing in front of them, you will kind of recreate the feeling close to visiting a church. You can pray in front of the icons both during a personal conversion, and when you are praying with the whole family. Prayers can be said from a book, but you will soon realize that it is much more convenient to read by heart. They do not have to be memorized on purpose: with the constant reading of prayers, the text itself will be remembered.
Solitary prayer: what to ask for?
In addition to prayers that can and should be read by the whole family, often a believer wants to communicate with the Lord in private, to ask for something secret. And that's completely normal. After all, such an appeal can be the most sincere, especially when it comes to repentance for something. Therefore, it is even necessary to pray alone.
Often, requests for earthly goods are called into question. Indeed, for a believer, his inner world should be much more important than material well-being. On the whole, everything is correct, and spiritual development is placed above earthly and passing comforts. But on the other hand, a person has needs that need to be satisfied: healthy food, sound healthy sleep, a warm and comfortable home.
Praying for prosperity and well-being is normal. But still, requests for the salvation of the soul should be a priority. Moreover, it is quite possible to achieve earthly blessings on your own, and ask the Lord to help in difficult undertakings. Also, do not forget to pray for loved ones, asking them for health and happiness.
Reading prayers is a very personal matter. Sometimes it is very difficult to accustom children to it. If the child resists this, then show him an example. Don't make him pray, but let him see how you do it. As a result, he will repeat after you.
You need to read prayers not in a hurry, not out of habit, but with an appeal to God, as if feeling each time relief and some purification in the soul. So if there is an atheist in your family, don't force it. Respect each other and remember that even a child has a choice to believe in God or not. Judgment is not acceptable here.
The fact that your prayers help you you will always understand and recognize, because your guardian angel always helps you. With our free test, you can even find out how he does it. Go to church more often and don't forget to press the buttons and

Not always everything in our life is rosy and beautiful. Constant difficulties come without...
priest Konstantin SlepininPrayer rule- 1) daily morning and evening that Christians perform (recommended texts can be found in); 2) regulated reading of these prayers.
The rule can be general - obligatory for all or individual, selected for the believer, taking into account his spiritual state, strength and employment.
Consists of morning and evening prayers, which are performed daily. This vital rhythm is necessary, because otherwise the soul easily falls out of the life of prayer, as if waking up only from time to time. In prayer, as in any big and difficult task, "inspiration", "mood" and improvisation alone are not enough.
Reading prayers connects a person with their creators: psalmists and ascetics. This helps to find a spiritual mood akin to their burning heart. In praying in other people's words, our example is the Lord Jesus Christ Himself. His prayer exclamations during the suffering on the Cross are lines from ().
There are three basic prayer rules:
1) The complete prayer rule, which is printed in "";
2) Brief prayer rule. Lay people sometimes have situations when there is little time and energy left for prayer, and in this case it is better to read a short rule with attention and reverence than hastily and superficially, without a prayerful mood - the whole rule. The Holy Fathers teach to treat their prayer rule with reason, on the one hand, not giving concessions to their passions, laziness, self-pity and others that can destroy a correct spiritual dispensation, and on the other hand, to learn to shorten or even slightly change the rule without temptation and embarrassment. when there is a real need for it.
in the morning
: “King of Heaven”, Trisagion, “”, “Virgin Mother of God”, “Rising from sleep”, “God have mercy on me”, “”, “God, cleanse me”, “To You, Vladyka”, “Holy Angel”, “ Blessed Lady”, invocation of the saints, prayer for the living and the dead;
in the evening
: “King of Heaven”, Trisagion, “Our Father”, “Have mercy on us, Lord”, “Eternal God”, “Good King”, “Angel of Christ”, from “Choose Governor” to “It is worthy to eat”;
Is it good if the prayer rule is larger: in addition to the usual morning and evening prayers - akathists, canons?
The most important thing in the fulfillment of the prayer rule is its constant daily fulfillment. If necessary, it is reduced. You must have such a rule that it does not exceed your strength and that your conscience does not reproach you for laziness.
Morning and evening rules are only necessary spiritual hygiene. We are commanded to pray without ceasing (see). The holy fathers said: if you churn milk, you will get butter, and in prayer, it turns from quantity into quality.
“In order for a rule to become not an obstacle, but a real mover of a person towards God, it is necessary that it be in proportion to his spiritual strength, correspond to his spiritual age and state of soul. Many people, not wanting to weigh themselves down, consciously choose too light prayer rules which because of this become formal and do not bear fruit. But sometimes a great rule, chosen out of unreasonable jealousy, also becomes a shackle, plunging into despondency and preventing one from growing spiritually.
The rule is not a frozen form, during the course of life it must necessarily change both qualitatively and externally.
In moments of despair and worldly hardships, a person remembers God. Many people believed in the help of Jesus when they turned with a prayer in need. But does the Lord always hear us? How to pray properly, my grandmother taught me. She told why not all prayers reach heaven, and why many remain unanswered. I will share this knowledge with you, which will be of invaluable help in any situation.
None of us is immune from worldly storms and hardships, illnesses and natural Disasters. My grandmother always told me that we walk under God. Many people do not understand this and spend their lives in complete carelessness, not keeping the commandments of God. But then trouble comes, and the person does not know where to expect help from. And help is always there, because Christ is the savior of everyone who believes in him.
Uncertainty about the future oppresses the human heart. Suddenly I lose my job, suddenly misfortune happens to mine - from these thoughts you can just fall into an endless depression. But there is a way out, and he is God himself: sincere prayer with faith in the heart. Jesus will always listen, never condemn, support in difficult times.
Many people have gained confidence in life through faith and prayer.
My grandmother told me from childhood that prayer is not a set of incomprehensible words in the old Russian language, but a conversation with God. It is not necessary to read ancient prayers if the heart asks for communication with the creator. God understands all our words, he sees hearts and feels our thoughts. Sincerity and truth are the keys to success in any prayer. Even if you are reading a difficult text from the Prayer Book, there must still be faith and love for God in the heart.
Prayer without faith will not be heard.
There are people who seek self-interest in prayers. They think like this: I will read prayers, and you (God) help me for this. They think that earthly blessings will fall on them only because they deigned to take the Prayer Book into their hands. But God does not need favors, and he will not reward selfish motives. One must be honest and sincere, not trying to deceive the creator of life. It is impossible to beg for honors, wealth and glory from God.
It is also impossible to please God by visiting holy places or temples popular with believers. Without faith in the heart, visiting shrines will not give anything. A sincere believer without holy places will be heard by God.
Prayer book
How to pray at home? To do this, you need to buy a Prayer Book in a church shop. It should become a reference book for a believer who wants to find God's help and grace. When a person lights a church candle in front of the images and burns incense, he should be filled with reverence for God. Opening the Prayer Book, you need to get rid of vain thoughts and direct all your attention to God. Through the prayer word, you come into contact with him, start a conversation.
What prayers are contained in the Prayer Book? The book contains prayers that cover a wide range of life areas:
- help against the warring;
- protect from dangers and troubles;
- heal and protect against diseases;
- protect from evil and evil spirits.
With the help of the Prayer Book, a person will be completely protected from the vicissitudes of fate, protected from the machinations of the evil one and attacking enemies.
Is it possible to pray in your own words, and how to pray at home without a Prayer Book? If you do not have a Prayer Book, you can memorize the Our Father and read it in a prayer appeal. You can turn on the recording of the prayer, where it is said by the priest 40 times in a row. But the most best prayer is the prayer of the heart. That is what the Lord hears.
Faith and prayer open heaven. Faith without prayer is useless, as is prayer without faith.
It is important to understand that the Prayer Book is not a collection magic conspiracies for all occasions. Holding a Prayer Book in your hands does not mean receiving an answer to all requests. In the church, magic is not practiced, but the soul is cleansed of filth. Many diseases come from unrepentant sins and unworthy behavior. Therefore, taking the holy book in your hands, remember your sinful nature and do not demand obedience from God to you.
Time for prayer
How to read a prayer at home, at what time? Previously, our ancestors began every morning with a prayer, asking God's blessings for the coming day. AT modern times people do not even think to approach the images and just briefly ask God for blessings. They are always in a hurry somewhere and late, and in the morning they really want to lie in bed longer. But if you want to be protected from trouble for the whole day, take a few minutes to pray.
How to start prayer morning? First of all, you should overshadow yourself with a cross and say: “God, be merciful to me a sinner!”. Then follow the obligatory prayers:
- the Holy Spirit;
- Trinity;
- Our Father.
Should I read the entire set of morning prayers from the Prayer Book? The Church Fathers teach that it is better to read two prayers with attention. than the whole vault without proper reverence. There is no need to pronounce holy texts in a tongue twister, this is a waste of time.
Before and after prayer, you need to make the sign of the cross and bow to the belt.
Prayer for the coming sleep is also obligatory, as it protects us from the temptations of the evil one. In a dream, a person is completely defenseless and cannot control his thoughts. This is used by the enemy of mankind and sends obscene dreams or nightmares. A protective prayer before going to bed will save you from the attack of the evil one. However, before the night prayer, you should analyze the past day:
- find sins and repent before God;
- note whether there were thoughts about the spiritual during the day;
- forgive ill-wishers from the heart;
- thank God for the day.
Thanking God for everything is an important rule of prayer. We live and breathe thanks to the creator of life. How many people in this world are destitute or crippled, so expressing gratitude for your well-being is an indispensable condition in the prayer rule. However, thanks to God, one should not forget about his commandment of love for one's neighbor. If we are at enmity with someone in our hearts, God simply will not hear us.
Enmity between people leaves prayer unanswered.
Jesus taught that you should start praying after your neighbors have forgiven their sins against you. As you forgive others for their sins, so you will be forgiven. But if you are at enmity in your heart with your neighbor and are indignant, then God will not hear you and your prayer appeals.
What can you ask for in prayer?
Jesus Christ told us to seek first of all the Kingdom of Heaven and its righteousness. If we think about the earthly, then we fall away from the spiritual. Vain requests for insignificant earthly blessings will not be taken into account. But if a person strives for the spiritual and seeks spiritual grace, then God will also fulfill all his earthly needs.
Often people do not know how to pray for God to hear and help. They seek earthly blessings, but do not think about heavenly things. People may ask for a car, luck in the lottery, or the love of a certain person. But God does not heed such requests. Likewise, God does not heed sinners who have never attended confession. If a person has nothing to confess, then he is an inveterate sinner.
After confession, the most cherished desires can come true.
It is also impossible to beg from God for something that will cause grief and misfortune to other people. God will never answer such calls, because he does not violate his laws. And there is only one law for us: love one another.
What icons should be prayed at home? An Orthodox believer should have a home iconostasis, but not everyone has one. Therefore, for home prayer, you can purchase icons of the Savior and the Virgin in the church. This will be enough to get you started. If you have a patron saint, you need to purchase his icon as well. Icons should be in a clean, bright place in the room.
Prayer for agreement
What is this prayer, and why is it needed? Is this a prayer in a church? Reading prayers by agreement involves an agreement between several people to read certain prayers at a certain time. For example, believers agree to pray for the healing of someone or for success in an endeavor. They do not have to congregate in the same room, and may even live in different cities- it does not matter. It is important to determine the purpose of the prayer and say it at the same time.
Here is the text of the prayer of the agreement of St. John of Kronstadt:
According to him, this prayer performed miracles. People received healing from illnesses, were strengthened in spirit in difficult conditions, and regained their lost faith.
Remember that prayer is not a ritual act, and do not expect instant fulfillment of what you desire.
However, in order to conduct a prayer by agreement, you need to receive the blessing of the priest. Don't forget this rule.
So, when starting to pray, it is important to remember the following:
- put on a pectoral cross and a scarf (for women);
- before starting prayer, you need to forgive all the sins of your neighbors against you;
- you need to start reading a prayer in a calm mood, without fuss and haste;
- one must firmly believe that God hears the prayer of the believer;
- before reading the prayer, one should make the sign of the cross three times and bow in the belt;
- a prayer must be said before the images;
- do not ask for fame and fortune, God will not hear it;
- after reading the prayers, it is necessary to give thanks and praise to God and overshadow oneself with the cross.
If you have holy water, you need to drink a few sips to sanctify your insides as well.
How many times do you need to say a prayer request to get an answer? Sometimes it takes a long time, and sometimes the answer comes instantly. Everything depends on the will of God and your efforts.
If your prayer calls are not answered, then you are asking for something harmful to yourself. Always rely on the Lord, because he knows better what is good or bad for you. Do not fall into anger or irritation about an unfulfilled request, this leads away from faith and directs you to a sinful path. Perhaps in 10 years you will understand why God never answered your prayer, and thank him from the bottom of your heart for that!
Prayers for quick help that will protect you from trouble, help in misfortune and show the way to a better life:
PRAYERS OF GRATITUDE
It is advisable to read these prayers every day.
Thank the Lord for every day you live, for the blessings sent to you, for the great gift - health, for the happiness of children. For everything you have on this moment, even if, from your point of view, this is not so much.
If you begin to thank the powers of Heaven for your life and everything connected with it, your life will definitely change for the better. After all, good begets good. Having learned to appreciate what we have, we will perceive differently all the opportunities that the Lord will give us through our prayers.

Prayer to Nicholas the Pleasant
In the Orthodox world, it is difficult to find a second saint as revered as Nicholas the Wonderworker. Everyone turns to him, and simpletons and scientists, believers and non-believers, even many who are alien to Christianity, Muslims and Buddhists turn to him with reverence and fear. The reason for such a large-scale veneration is simple - not long in coming, almost instantaneous help from God, sent through the prayers of this greatest saint. People who at least once turned to him with a prayer of faith and hope are certainly aware of this.

So may the will of the Lord come true and you, saint, fulfill it. I ask you about happy life for myself and my household, and it will be for me the highest reward from the Lord. Hear me, heavenly angel, and help me, do the will of God. Amen.
PRAYERS THAT STRENGTHEN US WITH THE SPIRIT TO SURVIVE HARD TIMES
You can ask the Lord for money. Possibly good work.

Prayer of the holy righteous John of Kronstadt, protecting from falling
God! I am a miracle of Your goodness, wisdom, omnipotence, since I was brought by You from non-existence into existence, since I am preserved by You until now in being, since I have, by the goodness, generosity and love of mankind of Your only-begotten Son, to inherit eternal life, if I remain faithful to You, since I am a terrible priesthood the sacrifice of Myself by Your Son, I am raised from a terrible fall, redeemed from eternal death. I praise Your goodness, Your infinite power. Your wisdom! But perform the miracles of Your goodness, omnipotence and wisdom over me, the accursed one, and through their destinies save me, Your unworthy servant, and lead me into Your eternal Kingdom, vouchsafe me an ageless life, a day that is not evening.

Prayer of St. Dmitry of Rostov, protecting from despair
God! All my desire and sighing may be in You. All my desire and my zeal in You alone may it be, my Savior! Let all my desire and my thoughts be deepened in You, and let all my bones say: “Lord, Lord!

Prayer to the guardian angel to strengthen faith and relieve despondency in moments of failure
My patron, my intercessor in the face of the One Christian God! Holy angel, I appeal to you with a prayer for the salvation of my soul. From the Lord, a trial of faith descended on me, wretched one, for the Father, our God, has loved me. Help, saint, to endure the test from the Lord, for I am weak and I am afraid not to endure my sufferings. Angel of light, come down to me, send great wisdom on my head, to listen very sensitively to the word of God. Strengthen my faith, angel, so that there are no temptations before me and I would pass my test. As a blind man walks through the mud, not knowing it, but I will go with you among the vices and abominations of the earth, not raising my eyes to them, but in vain only to the Lord. Amen.
Prayer to the Most Holy Theotokos, protecting from despair
Lady, my Most Holy Theotokos. With your all-powerful and holy prayers before our Lord, take away from me, your sinful and humble servant (name), despondency, foolishness and all filthy, crafty and blasphemous thoughts. I beg you! Take them away from my sinful heart and my weak soul. Holy Mother of God! Deliver me from all evil and unkind thoughts and actions. Be blessed and may your name be glorified forever and ever. Amen.
Prayer of St. Dmitry of Rostov, protecting from despondency and despair
May nothingness tear me away, may nothingness separate me from Thy Divine love, O my God!

The prayer of the persecuted
(Compiled by St. Ignatius Brianchaninov)
I thank You, Lord and my God, for everything that has happened to me! I thank You for all the sorrows and temptations that You sent me to cleanse those defiled by sins, to heal my soul and body, ulcerated by the sins! Have mercy and save those instruments that You used for my healing: those people who offended me. Bless them in this and the next age! Credit them with virtue for what they did for me! Appoint them abundant rewards from your eternal treasures.
What did I bring you? What kind sacrifices? I brought only sins, only violations of Your most divine commandments. Forgive me, Lord, forgive the guilty before You and before people! Forgive the unrequited! Grant me to be convinced and sincerely confess that I am a sinner! Grant me to reject sly excuses! Grant me repentance! Give me contrition of heart! Grant me meekness and humility! Grant love to your neighbors, immaculate love, the same for everyone, both comforting and grieving me! Grant me patience in all my sorrows! Kill me for the world! Take away my sinful will from me and plant Your holy will in my heart, so that I can do it alone with deeds, and words, and thoughts, and my feelings. Glory befits you for everything! To you alone belongs the glory! My only property is the shame of the face and the silence of the lips. Standing before Your Last Judgment in my wretched prayer, I do not find in myself a single good deed, not a single dignity, and I stand, only embraced from everywhere by an innumerable multitude of my sins, as if by a thick cloud and darkness, with a single consolation in my soul: with hope for an unlimited Your mercy and goodness. Amen.

Holy angel, protect me from harassment and insults from those who have risen above me. Save me from their injustice, for I suffer innocently for this reason.

Prayer to the prophet Elijah
You can pray to the Holy Glorious Prophet Elijah during rainlessness, drought, rain, for weather changes, as well as for successful trading, from hunger and in cases where you want to receive prophecy, prophetic dreams.
The great and glorious prophet of God Elijah, for the sake of your zeal, according to the glory of the Lord God Almighty, did not endure the sight of idolatry and wickedness of the sons of Israel, the law-criminal king Ahaab, denouncing and punishing those three-year-old flock to the land of Israel with your prayer from the Lord, asking the widow of Sarepta in the gladness miraculously nourishing and resurrecting her son, having died with your prayer, after the lapse of the proclaimed time of gladness, the people of Israel gathered on Mount Carmel in apostasy and wickedness, reproaching the same fire with a prayer for your sacrifice from heaven, and miraculously turning Israel to the Lord, shaming the student prophets of Baal and mortifying, by the same prayer the sky has resolved and plentiful rain has been asked for on the earth, and the people of Israel rejoice! We diligently resort to you, the faithful servant of God, zealously resorting to sin and humility, lack of rain and the heat of languor: we confess that we are not worthy of the mercy and blessings of God, worthy more than the fierce rebukes of His wrath: we do not walk in the fear of God and in the ways of His commandments, but in the lusts of our corrupted hearts, and we have done every kind of sin without coldness: behold, our iniquities have surpassed our head, and we are not worthy to appear before the face of God and look into heaven: the same we confess humbly, as if for this sake the sky was shut up and as if it were made of brass, for the first time our heart from mercy and true love: for this reason, the earth was hardened and became barren, as if our Lord did not bring the fruits of good deeds: for this reason, there was no rain, lower than dew, like tears of tenderness and life-giving dew of Divine thought, not imams: for this sake, all cereal and grass withered rural, as if every good feeling has gone out of us: for this reason, the air is darkened, as if our mind was darkened by cold thoughts and our heart was defiled by lawless lusts. We confess, as if you were not worthy of Esma and you, prophet of God, beg: you, being a servile person to us, were like an angel in your life, and like a fleshless one, you were taken up to heaven, we are likened by our studded thoughts and deeds to our dumb cattle, and the soul you created our flesh as if you created it: you surprised angels and men with fasting and vigil, but we, betraying intemperance and voluptuousness, are like mindless cattle: you burned unceasingly with jealous zeal for the glory of God, but we neglect the glory of our Creator and Lord, confess we are ashamed of His venerable name: you have uprooted ungodliness and evil customs, but we have worked for the spirit of this age, the customs of the world are more than the commandments of God and the charters of church watchers. Cue sin and unrighteousness we do not repent, and so our iniquities exhaust the longsuffering of God! In the same way, the just Lord was righteously angry with us, and in His anger punished us. Both leading your great boldness before the Lord, and trusting in your love for the human race, we dare to pray to you, most praiseworthy prophet: be merciful to us unworthy and indecent, implore the great-gifted and all-merciful God, may he not be completely angry with us and may not destroy us with our iniquities, but let it rain plentiful and peaceful rain on the thirsty and withered earth, give it fruitfulness and good air: bend your effective intercession to the mercy of the King of heaven, not for us for the sake of sinful and filthy, but for the sake of His chosen servants, your knee before Baal of this world who did not bend, for the sake of gentle babies, for the sake of dumb cattle and birds of heaven, suffering for our iniquity and melting with hunger, heat and thirst. Ask us with your favorable prayers from the Lord for the spirit of repentance and tenderness of heart, meekness and abstinence, the spirit of love and patience, the spirit of God's fear and piety, yes, having returned from the path of wickedness to the right path of virtue, we walk in the light of God's commandments and achieve the good things promised to us by the good will of the Father without beginning, by the love of mankind of His only begotten Son, and by the grace of the All-Holy Spirit, now and forever and forever and ever.

Holy Supreme Apostle Paul, the chosen vessel of Christ, the speaker of the heavenly mysteries, the teacher of all languages, the church trumpet, the glorious whirlwind, who endured many troubles for the name of Christ, who measured the sea and the earth and turned us away from the flattery of idols!

Prayer in a situation when things and business are going badly
Psalm 37
Lord, do not rebuke me with Your wrath, but punish me with Your anger. Like Your arrows unzosha in me, and Thou hast established Your hand on me. There is no healing in my flesh from the face of Your wrath; there is no peace in my bones from the face of my sins. As if my iniquity exceeded my head, as if a heavy burden was burdened on me. Resurrect and bend my wounds from the face of my madness. Suffered and slushy to the end, all day complaining about walking. Like my ladviya is filled with reproach and there is no healing in my flesh. I was embittered and resigned to the ground, roaring from the sighing of my heart. Lord, before You all my desire and my sighing is not hidden from You. My heart is troubled, leave me my strength, and the light of my eyes, and that one is not with me. My friends and my sincere ones are directly approaching me and stasha, and my neighbors are far away, stashing me and needy looking for my soul, and looking for an evil verb to me, vain and flattering all day long. But I am as if deaf not hearing, and as if he did not open his mouth. And like a man, do not hear and do not have reproof in your mouth. As if in You, Lord, I hope, You will hear, Lord my God. Yako rekh: yes, not when my enemies will please me: and always move my feet, yelling at me. For I am ready for wounds, and my illness is before me. As if my iniquity, I will proclaim and take care of my sin. My enemies live and become stronger than me, and multiply those who hate me without the truth. Those who repay me the evil, the good slander me, for the persecution of goodness. Do not leave me, Lord my God, do not depart from me. Come to my help, O Lord of my salvation.

Prayer for success in trading
It is read to the Great Martyr John the New about patronage in trade. Holy and glorious Great Martyr John, the Christians were taken away by the strong, the merchant of all kinds, the quick helper to all who come running to you. I’ll buy the sea swimming abyss, from the east I get to the north, but the Lord God called you, like Matthew the treasury, you left trade, and you followed the blood of torment, temporarily redeeming the impenetrable, and you accepted the crown invincible. Praise be to John, you have neither the cruelty of the tormentor, nor the words of caress, nor the torments of rebuke, nor the bitter heartbeat from Christ, you loved Him from infancy, and prayed to Him to grant our souls peace and great mercy. Being a zealous wisdom, a treasure of virtues, from there you also drew Divine understanding. By the same time I called for time, you diligently took yourself off to the feat, accepting martyr's wounds, flesh crushing and blood exhaustion, and now you live in the indescribably light of the martyrs. For this sake, we cry out to you: pray to Christ the God of sins, grant forgiveness to those who worship by faith with your holy relics. Crush the weapons of the wicked, invincible warrior, unjustly moved to your property, which you have chosen for yourself, having loved, and affirm our fatherland, and we will quietly and peacefully pass on the residence. Coming to the non-evening light, blessed, with martyr faces, singing thee in your memory, save from temptation with your prayers. Amen.

Yes, pardoned by your compassion, I glorify You, the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit, forever and ever. Amen.
Prayer for every good deed
Quick Intercessor and Strong in help, stand by the grace of Your strength now and bless, strengthen your servants in the accomplishment of the intention of the good deed.
Prayer at the end of the case
You are the fulfillment of all good things, my Christ, fill my soul with joy and gladness and save me, as One is Many-merciful. Lord, glory to You.
