Sacred prayers for healing will save you from both physical suffering and emotional distress. Believers recover much faster from illnesses. Their appeal to the Lord and to all holy saints allows them to soften their condition. But not only in difficult moments should you talk to God - but also at a time when your life is full of happiness, praise Heaven, thank them for such wonderful moments.
Sometimes people do not realize the power of prayer texts - they ignore going to church, and do not consider it necessary to hang icons at home. And daily conversation with saints seems like a ridiculous activity to them. Finding themselves in a hopeless situation, they begin to cry and scream. They pray to the Creator to grant them their former health.
Don’t miss your chance to be heard and understood - consult with the Almighty, talk about what’s gnawing at your heart, don’t be afraid to talk about weaknesses and desires. Depending on the strength of faith that lives in the human soul, the Lord assists in everything those who pray to him for help.
Why does prayer to the saints heal?
Appealing to the saints helps, since they were people just like us. They lived on earth. And they always helped those who needed it. Their holiness was proven during their lifetime. These people never refused support.
And when someone came to them for advice, the saints gave invaluable recommendations. Thanks to their tireless work, the prayers of ordinary people reached the Creator.
The saints always spoke about the correct reading of the prayer and about preliminary preparation for this:
- A person suffering from an illness must be confessed, so take him to church to the Holy Father. If the patient cannot move independently, invite a priest to your home.
- Proper nutrition, namely lean food, should be on the table. The body and, most importantly, the soul will be cleansed of everything evil and harmful.
- Repeat prayer texts as often as possible - daily, hourly, every minute.
- The more people pray to the Lord for the salvation of a sick person, the sooner recovery will come.
- And the most important point that the saints mention is - believe in health!
Are there miracles in the modern world?
Why do we hardly see miracles of healing in real life? The answer is very simple. Those whose names are widely known to a large number of people are the least free to choose their life path. These people are usually afraid to change the way they think. The higher you sit, the more painful it is to fall. Those who have learned from their own experience how a healing prayer manifested itself in a visible effect in real life, speak little about this miracle. This is a natural reaction to a real miracle. Imagine that you suddenly came out of a dark and cold basement, where you were hungry and in poverty, into the light and began to live in a beautiful place, in convenient and comfortable conditions, without experiencing need and sadness. But you don’t know the way back, you don’t have the opportunity to return, because the previous dark world has disappeared. This is roughly how protective and healing prayers work and change lives. There are often cases when a person who has received healing through prayer tries to tell his friends about the miracle that happened to him, but they do not understand him. Friends see in what happened an element of chance, a happy coincidence, and so on. Patriarch Kirill, when asked about faith in God and miracles, answered that if a person does not believe in God, then even if an angel appears in front of his face on Red Square, he will consider it a hoax, hallucination or trick. Yes, God doesn’t really need to have as many admirers as possible. This is not network marketing.
What does a prayer that heals all illnesses sound like? “Lord, be merciful to me, a sinner.” Prayer is not a conspiracy, not a mantra, not a unique combination of sounds and words - it is a conversation with the One who gave us life, who for the sake of our salvation became man in Jesus Christ and through the death of his Only Begotten Son on the cross, opened for us the path to salvation and happiness.
Prayer to the Lord God
The Creator hears all speeches addressed to him. And when the person praying says them with faith in his soul, with hope for the support of heaven, he will definitely receive everything he asks for.
The prayer for healing is especially strong: no matter where it is spoken, its energy is very powerful. And within church walls, and in your familiar home environment, and even in public transport (mentally), you can conduct a dialogue with God. Do not doubt his help - and the Lord will extend his mighty hand to you.
When a loved one is sick, our hearts are not in the right place. It is very difficult to bear watching your baby or loved one lie in bed completely exhausted. Your prayer will open the gates of heaven and your soulmate will recover:
Text of prayer for cleansing the house
Into your hands, O great and merciful God, I entrust my body and soul, all my words, feelings and thoughts, my deeds, everything and every movement of my being. My birth and death, my faith and my life, every day and hour that I breathe, and the time that I will spend in the grave. But you, Lord, are universal love and goodness, insurmountable by all human sins and all devilish malice, take me, the most sinful of all people on the face of the Earth, into the hands of your protection and deliver me from all evil, cleanse my iniquities and grant me correction, who trusts in you. Send also your blessing to this house of mine and protect it from the influence of evil demons, evil witchcraft and an envious eye. Surround it in the corners with your angels, so that nothing unclean can penetrate into it. Forbid all enemies, visible and invisible, to harm this dwelling and those living in it, but send down every blessing, well-being and prosperity. I send glory and thanksgiving to you, the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, now and throughout all ages. Amen.
Prayer to the Mother of God
It is especially painful when the disease harms children. A mother's heart does not find peace, because babies do not deserve to suffer. Our Lady intercedes for every child. She knows how to ask our Creator for the desired deliverance from illness.
The misfortune that has overtaken you will recede if you turn your prayers for healing to the Virgin Mary:
Do not forget to glorify the merits of the Mother of God, thank her - the help of Saint Mary is priceless for all humanity.
Help from saints and various images of the Virgin Mary
Every person has their own relationship with God. It is impossible to impose the correct way of communicating with Jesus Christ, the Mother of God and the saints. And who can say exactly what God will do and how to talk to Him? This is not necessary. Some people turn to God in prayer through a guardian angel, others through the Virgin Mary, others through saints. All this is correct. Over many centuries of Christianity, observations have developed of how different images of the Mother of God and different saints answer people’s prayers. From these observations, traditions have developed of turning to them for various needs. There is something pagan in this, but the ability to believe in God is such a complex matter! The Lord generously forgives us our weaknesses and narrow-mindedness.
For many centuries, mothers have been offering prayers for their children, healing all diseases, both physiological and mental, in front of the image of the Mother of God, called “Tikhvinskaya”. This icon is famous for its numerous miracles of healing.
If you have problems with your legs or a sore back, they turn to Saint Seraphim of Sarov.
For headaches, they pray to John the Baptist.
When your hands hurt, they resort to the help of Our Lady of the Three Hands.
The Holy Great Martyr Panteleimon is considered the healer of all diseases.
What should you do if an animal, a pet who devotedly loves its owners, gets sick? Is it possible to ask God to cure a cat, dog or turtle? Of course you can! Orthodox and Catholics have a common saint - the Great Martyr Tryphon, to whom they pray for animals. A healing prayer to this saint will help your dumb friend get better.
When dealing with problems with oncology, Orthodox Christians turn to the image of the Mother of God “The Queen of All.” You can find an akathist written in honor of this icon, you can read a special prayer to the “All-Tsarina”. If this is not possible, then say in front of the icon: “Lord, forgive me, a sinner.”
Prayer to the Queen of All
The All-Tsarina is addressed while standing in front of the image - on her knees or simply bowing her head. Do not expect complete relief from your illness after your first conversation with the Holy Virgin. Your road will be thorny and difficult, but it will definitely lead you to your dream.
Pray to the All-Tsarina both in the temple and at home. A holy image can be purchased in a church and hung near the bed of a sufferer, so that its power will always support the sick person. And this will allow you to mentally turn to the face at any moment.
The sacred text goes like this:
The Mother of God is especially favorable to a cancer patient - multiple examples of complete healing from a fatal disease prove the powerful power of the image.
Rules for relatives
When there is a person in the family who suffers from a mental disorder, the way of life changes. He needs constant care, especially if he is a child. To establish better contact and help, you need to follow simple rules.
- There is no need to look for the reasons why this disease developed. Everything that happens to a person is God's will.
- Don't try to convince someone who has a mental disorder. He cannot distinguish reality from hallucinations. It is better to pray that this condition passes away as quickly as possible.
- It is necessary to carefully monitor the patient’s condition and detect the slightest fluctuations in his mood.
- It is worth visiting the same psychiatrist regularly. Do not neglect treatment, even in the case of prayer therapy. It is better to find a believing doctor who can control the therapy, correlating it with prayers.
When praying for a sick person, you must sincerely ask God for his healing. You need to be patient every day, because this will help the patient recover.
In order for daily prayer to be more effective, it is necessary to carry out activities to strengthen it. For this purpose, prayer services are ordered in the church.
Prayer to Saint Nicholas the Wonderworker
The miracles performed by Saint Nicholas are known to everyone. All prayers for healing addressed to him are aimed at protection and strengthening. There is no need to pray loudly - the saint hears your requests, even if spoken in a whisper. Keep only faith and love in your soul.
Repeat three times near the image of the Wonderworker:
Never lose hope
If trouble happens, there will always be people who will say that it is not time to go to temples, you need to work to earn money for treatment. They will say that many pray, but not many are healed. This is wrong. Such thoughts are very harmful. They can deprive the unfortunate of his last hope. It is very important to remember that God is always there. And when turning to him, any request for forgiveness and mercy is already a very strong healing prayer.
A request to God can begin with the words “Lord, be merciful to me a sinner.” If you comprehend the healing Orthodox prayers, it becomes clear that every canonical text is a complete trust in God. Money is never mentioned in prayers. This is by no means accidental. In a vain and sinful world, we rely on the illusory power of money. The greatness and power of the Creator are manifested in the fact that he, having condescended to our humble requests, miraculously, without catastrophes and destruction, imperceptibly, in an instant, rebuilds the whole world to suit our needs, for the benefit of each of us and those for whom we ask.
Prayer to Saint Matrona of Moscow
There are legends about Matrona. People remember her miraculous powers, because, while still a little girl, she helped those suffering from various ailments. The weak turned to her. And not only did the illnesses recede - Matrona also provided spiritual support and morally strengthened the spirit of people.
Numerous crowds always stood near her house, and no one left without the advice of the great woman.
As she lay on her deathbed, and her last breaths lifted her chest, Matrona said: “Always tell me about your problems, and I will answer. I will stand before God and ask for everyone.”
Tell Matronushka what’s on your heart, about your worries and experiences. And then say the sacred words:
How does prayer work?
Any external manifestation of a disease is always a consequence of invisible processes that led to the destruction of one or another organ. Let's say you have a toothache. You have found an image of Antipas of Pergamon, on the back of which is written a prayer that heals dental diseases. What happens next? You think that the most you can hope for in this situation is that the acute pain will stop. You are reading a prayer. The toothache may subside immediately, or it may only subside a little. However, you can already carry it. Healing icons and prayers always act in a complex, three-dimensional manner, and not flatly and linearly. If your tooth hurts, it means you need money for treatment. By praying to Antipas for toothache, you will soon receive a promotion at work and will be able to pay for expensive prosthetics. Or maybe you will go to a clinic in a new area of the city and make a very important acquaintance there.
God works in mysterious ways. He does not give us an account of his plans, but we can say with absolute confidence that all requests addressed to God and the saints from a baptized person will always be heard and will always lead to good.
Prayer to Saint Luke of Crimea
The Crimean healer devoted all the years of his life to serving people. He tirelessly helped those in need. At critical moments they call on him and ask:
- about getting rid of all sorts of ailments - physical and spiritual;
- about the recovery of young children;
- about the successful course of pregnancy;
- about healing from cancer.
Text of prayer for cleansing the family tree
O ineffable light, O our heavenly Father! Hear and graciously accept my prayer, which I bring to you from my heart. Let it pass through the heavens and reach the throne of your glory. You are a just God, but also a merciful God. Therefore, I ask and implore you: grant to all my relatives who have died since the beginning of the world, peace of souls and forgiveness of sins. Grant them the kingdom of heaven and bring them out of the fire of hell, so that not in your justice, but in mercy and compassion, your name may be glorified. May your love cover my family to all the forefathers and foremothers, whose names you yourself know and know. Write them in the book of life and do not leave them to the judgment of the evil one, but intercede yourself and have mercy on them. Give us, the living, strength and grace to act according to your commandments, so that we can lead a pure and God-pleasing life until our very last breath. To you be glory, honor and worship due, today, and always, and forever and ever. Amen!
Prayer to Saint Panteleimon the Healer
At all times, in difficult moments of their lives, people called on Panteleimon, the great servant of the Lord. During his lifetime, the healer showed a special attitude towards all those who mourn, those in need and those asking for help. He had unique abilities that repeatedly returned people who were seemingly unable to recover to normal life.
And these days the saint comes to the rescue. He hears all prayers and answers them. All requests raised to him with true faith bring the desired result. Here is a prayer for healing - one of the most powerful:
Petition to Athanasius of Athos
To heal a mentally ill person, you can use several types of prayers. This way their effect will be summed up and the result, which is the healing of the soul, will be achieved much faster.
Other people may be to blame for mental illness and mental defeat. The health of an individual, especially the state of his mind, is a subtle matter that can be destroyed under the influence of magic. This can happen due to damage or the evil eye. Even strong love spells can upset the balance in mental health.
To remove possible witchcraft spells, it is necessary to offer a prayer to Athanasius of Athos. This is the saint who founded the great temple on Mount Athos. He developed asceticism and showed how a hermit should live in order to serve the Lord.
People offer him prayers, and he helps everyone who asks him for it. Prayers for mentally ill people, which are read to Saint Athanasius, sound like this:
Prayer to Archangel Raphael for healing
The world is divided into several levels. And we exist on all these levels - in a kind of hierarchical reality. Angels heal a person's life at every stage of development. Archangel Raphael first directs his forces to restore the thinnest layer, then moves further and further. And ultimately, he achieves the physical embodiment of the personality, contributing to the return of its integrity.
Archangel heals:
- physical body;
- the cause of the disease;
- the whole life path;
- spiritual component.
And after recovery, a person always continues to feel good. The great prayer for healing, reaching the Archangel, will grant you good health:
Faith in God is the lot of great and smart people
Many outstanding thinkers - philosophers, scientists involved in the natural sciences, representatives of the arts - were deeply religious people. Immanuel Kant first refuted five scholastic postulates about the existence of God, and then found a new one that proved the reality of God. And no one has yet been able to refute this proof of his.
All humble appeals to our Heavenly Father are miraculous prayers that heal any illness and resolve any problem. If you doubt or think that you know better than the Creator how it should turn out in the end, then this only means that you are too focused on yourself and see your problem very narrowly. A wise saying sometimes jokes: “It’s good that God doesn’t always do what we demand without thinking about the consequences.”
Prayer for healing the soul and mental illness
This prayer helps with ailments that affect the soul and psyche of a person. It is very effective for depression, nervous disorders, unreasonable fears, and suicidal tendencies.
You should read it every day, sincerely appealing to heaven:
When a person is overcome by demons, and demonic entities completely take control of his mind, the sacred text will come to the rescue:
Talent available to everyone
They say that faith in God is a talent, and talent is not given to everyone. In fact, faith in God is a talent that every person can develop in themselves. This is a lot of work. In order to get closer to God and understand His essence, you must not only read prayers, but also direct all the aspirations of your soul to comprehend the meaning of God’s incarnation in Jesus Christ, try to understand the commandment “Love one another.” Acceptance of this covenant into your soul removes the chains that burden people in worldly life. At the same time, by opening your soul to God, you will not lose the love of people and will not live worse. Read the Gospel carefully. You will see that the Lord does not deny simple human joys; on the contrary, love for God will teach you to love people too. And people will respond to this transformation. All troubles and illnesses come from disagreement, enmity and tension between people. This tension tends to increase. If measures are not taken to neutralize this phenomenon, then this kind of tension always transforms into diseases of the soul and body.
God bless you!
