Prayer before starting anything
Every person wants to achieve something in their life. And especially in our age, when material well-being is valued. But not everyone succeeds. Just don’t get upset and think that you are crooked and can’t create anything yourself. You just need a little luck, luck and God's grace. But this can be fixed. Before starting any business, you can turn to the Almighty with the words:
“Heavenly King, Comforter, Soul of truth, Who is everywhere and fulfills everything, Treasure of good things and Giver of life, come and dwell in us, and cleanse us from all filth, and save, O Good One, our souls.
Bless, Lord, and help me, a sinner, to complete the work I have begun, for Your glory.
Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of Your Father without beginning, You declared with Your most pure lips that without Me you cannot do anything. My Lord, Lord, with faith in my soul and heart spoken by You, I fall down in Your goodness: help me, a sinner, to complete this work, which I have begun, in You, in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, through the prayers of the Mother of God and all Your saints . Amen."
In addition, you can ask St. Nicholas the Wonderworker for help in business. Saint Nicholas never leaves without support those suffering who need it so much.
“Pleasant Nicholas, Protector and Savior. Grant me peace in vain affairs and do not be angry at a sinful request. Endow me with diligent hard work and protect me from hefty failures. Thy will be done. Amen."
If you are facing something dangerous to your health or even your life, then pray to Saint Matrona. This way, not only will your luck not leave you, but you will be alive and healthy. Even during her lifetime, Mother Matrona listened to everyone who turned to her, even with the smallest problems, and helped everyone without exception.
“Blessed Elder, Matrona of Moscow. Before starting a difficult task, I turn to you with a righteous prayer. Protect me from risks, breakdowns, bruises and breaks. Save my body from mutilation and injury, and my soul from every temptation. Thy will be done. Amen."
How to pray
Any prayer appeal to the Higher powers must be read according to certain rules. Their fulfillment will allow people's requests to reach the Lord. Only the Power of the Almighty can change the lives of His children.
The rules for reading a prayer to St. Nicholas the Wonderworker, which attracts good luck and fortune, are as follows:
- One should address Nicholas the Pleasant in front of his image, located in the church or in the home iconostasis.
- While in the temple, you should light candles and read short prayers in front of the icons of Jesus Christ and the Mother of God. Then the candle is lit in front of the image of St. Nicholas and the chosen akathist is read in a kneeling position. At home, they also light a church candle and kneel.
- Before starting a prayer appeal, it is necessary to renounce strong emotions, leaving in your soul only a sincere desire, firm faith in the Power of the Lord and hope for His help.
- When addressing the Heavenly protectors, a special akathist is read. But you can also tell about your desire in simple words, coming from the heart, and ask for help in fulfilling it.
- You should not rely only on the help of the Lord, since He helps only those who strive for the goal and make efforts to achieve it.
- After successfully achieving your goal, you need to give thanks to St. Nicholas the Wonderworker and the Lord.

Prayer for good luck in business
When you open your own enterprise, start your own business, or implement any important plans, you don’t want to fail. If you are not confident in your abilities, pray to the Guardian Angel for good luck in business.
“I call on my guardian angel to touch my destiny, to direct my path towards prosperity and good luck. When my guardian angel hears me, by a blessed miracle my life will take on a new meaning, and I will find success in today’s business, and in future affairs there will be no obstacles for me, for the hand of my guardian angel guides me. Amen."
It is not for nothing that everyone has their own Angel, who not only protects, but also helps in any difficult situations. Therefore, this petition will be very effective.

Most Holy Theotokos, save!
Perhaps nowhere is the Mother of God revered as much as in Russia. Any person can bring all his needs to her feet without fear or fear. It is believed that during worship she can enter the temple to watch people pray. But the Mother of God will hear everyone who turns to Her with a contrite heart.
It is not for nothing that there are many icons of the Mother of God, each traditionally having its own purpose. Prayers for good luck and luck should be read near the image of the “Different of Loaves.” This icon is designed to bring prosperity, just like the “Economissa” (house maker).
For any prayer, it is important to follow the general rules:
Before asking for something for yourself personally, you need to read the “Our Father” if you do not have time to read the prayer rule in full.
Every day, try to thank the Lord for everything you have: a roof over your head, a beloved family, children, work, a piece of bread. Remember, many people in the world are deprived of this!
While riding the wave of success, don’t forget about gratitude either - continue to pray daily and thank you for your help. Help those less fortunate. You can not only donate money to the temple. Buy groceries for an elderly lonely neighbor, take unnecessary toys to an orphanage, help a friend find a job, support a friend with a kind word. These are all worthy Christian actions that are very pleasing to God. Don't forget your neighbors and God won't forget you!
Prayer for help in business
There are moments when you realize that something is going wrong, and in an instant you can lose everything that you built with such difficulty. The business is collapsing, your luck has run out, your brainchild no longer brings the same profit, then you need to not sit idly by, but act.
Ask for help from the Holy Martyrs. You can use the prayer services that we have already indicated above. But, if you want to attract not only fortune, but also money back, then read the following prayer for success in business and luck:
“The Lord is my shepherd. I will lack for nothing: He makes me lie down in green pastures and leads me beside still waters, He strengthens my soul, He guides me in the paths of righteousness. Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for You are with me. You have prepared a table before me in the presence of my enemies, you have anointed my head with oil, my cup is overflowing. Thus, may Thy goodness and mercy accompany me all the days of my life, and I will abide in the house of the Lord many days. Amen."
In addition, for good luck in work, you can read a prayer to His Holiness Tryphon.
“Holy Martyr Tryphon, our quick helper. Be my helper and protector from evil demons and leader to the Kingdom of Heaven. Pray to the Almighty, may he give me joy from work, may he always be next to me and fulfill my plans.”
Now you know which prayers to use to attract good luck and luck in any endeavor or when something goes wrong in your affairs. Remember, you can never lose hope. Believe in the powers of higher powers, do not be afraid to ask for Holy help and then everything will be fine. After all, you can pray, asking not only for health, but also for everything you need.

Saint Nicholas - Helper of the Dispossessed
Saint Nicholas is one of the most revered saints in the entire Christian world.
He was born around 270, in the city of Lycia, on the territory of modern Turkey. Remember the Gospel story about Christ and the rich young man (Matthew 19:21)? The Savior told him that in order to achieve perfection, he must give away all his property. Then the young man became sad and left. And St. Nikolai put this instruction into practice. He spent all the money to help the disadvantaged. Several poor girls were married off, thanks to the help of the saint. So they avoided complete poverty, but their father already wanted to send his daughters to sell bodies. Saint Nicholas gave them enough money to afford a dowry. The saint saved those unjustly accused from execution, and appeared to fishermen during a storm. Therefore, it is believed that Nicholas the Wonderworker is able to help in everyday storms.
The saint patronizes travelers. Many drivers place an icon of St. in their car. Nicholas. Before the road, you can take a minute and turn to Nikolai the saint with a request to protect you from any troubles on the road. Luck means a lot on the road. Before traveling (by plane or any other form of transport), many pious Christians order a prayer service in the temple. After it, the priest allows people to kiss the cross and sprinkles holy water on those who set out on the journey.
Protect St. Nikolai and children, because it was not for nothing that the people’s consciousness reincarnated him as the good wizard Santa Claus. Having visited any Orthodox church, you can see there the image of the saint, usually in bishop's vestments, with the gospel in his left hand, and his right hand raised in a blessing gesture. You need to put a candle near the icon and pray for your need with firm faith.
Prayer for St. Good Luck Nicholas the Wonderworker
Is it permissible for Orthodox Christians to pray for money?
The very life of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker indicates: money can be spent both for good and not entirely. As you know, when, while still young, the saint helped three girls and saved them from fornication, he first threw only one bag of gold into the house to see what they would do with it. The father of the family then did not use the new funds for his own financial well-being or debauchery, but used the bag as a dowry.
After this, Saint Nicholas the Pleasant threw in the next bag and looked again, and again was not disappointed. Then he threw in a third one. From here it becomes clear that prosperity and financial support are given only to those who know how to manage it.
A worldly person, as a rule, needs to take care of attracting money and the well-being of his family. Nikolai Ugodnik himself saved three young girls from sin. The father of these girls had no money and everything was going towards giving the girls away to fornicate, but Nicholas the Wonderworker tossed each a bag of gold and thus not only saved them from sin, but also allowed them to create strong families.
Now many people offer prayers to Nicholas the Pleasant for money, for well-being in order to also receive family happiness or get rid of some difficulties. The saint helps believers.
How to pray correctly to win the lottery
Some may be surprised, but even gambling fans turn to Nikolai
It is important to remember that the church has a sharply negative attitude towards this kind of activity, repeatedly condemning it. But if we are talking about such a harmless game as a lottery, then there is nothing to fear, and instead you should ask the saint for a win, putting your whole soul into the appeal
“O our good shepherd and God-wise mentor, Saint Nicholas of Christ! Hear us sinners, praying to you and calling for your speedy intercession for help; see us weak, caught from everywhere, deprived of every good and darkened in mind from cowardice; Try, O servant of God, not to leave us in the captivity of sin, so that we may not joyfully become our enemies and not die in our evil deeds. Pray for us, unworthy, to our Creator and Master, to whom you stand with disembodied faces: make our God merciful to us in this life and in the future, so that He will not reward us according to our deeds and the impurity of our hearts, but according to His goodness He will reward us . We trust in your intercession, we boast of your intercession, we call on your intercession for help, and falling to your most holy image, we ask for help: deliver us, servant of Christ, from the evils that come upon us, and tame the waves of passions and troubles that rise up against us, and for the sake of Your holy prayers will not overwhelm us and we will not wallow in the abyss of sin and in the mud of our passions. Pray to Saint Nicholas of Christ, Christ our God, that he may grant us a peaceful life and remission of sins, salvation and great mercy for our souls, now and ever and unto ages of ages.”
And if you still manage to hit a big jackpot, then ideally you should give a tenth of your winnings to some good cause, not forgetting to thank your patron for their help. In the latter case, it is best to use prayers of thanks or praise, reading them in front of the image of the saint with lit church candles.
