And the vegetables are the same, the prices are the same, but the energy is different.

Prayer to John of Sochavsky for successful trading
Great Martyr John of Sochava, himself a former native of the trading city of Trazepunta, has special divine grace in helping merchants. Himself from a merchant family, he fervently believed in God and did not betray his faith even in the face of evil.
Since ancient times, those suffering losses and those wishing for stable profits pray to him with the following words:
“Holy Great Martyr John! Look down from the heavenly palace on those who require your help and do not reject our petitions, but, as our constant benefactor and intercessor, pray to Christ God, that He who loves mankind and is abundantly merciful will save us from every cruel situation: from cowardice, flood, fire, sword, invasions of foreigners and internecine warfare. May he not condemn us sinners for our iniquity, and may we not turn the good things given to us from the All-Bounteous God into evil, but into the glory of His holy name and into the glorification of your strong intercession. May the Lord, through your prayers, give us peace of mind, abstinence from harmful passions and all defilement, and may He strengthen throughout the world His One Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church, which He has acquired with His honest Blood. Pray diligently, holy martyr, may Christ God bless the power, may He establish in His holy Orthodox Church the living spirit of right faith and piety, so that all its members, clean from wisdom and superstition, worship Him in spirit and truth and diligently care about keeping His commandments, May we all live in peace and piety in this present world and achieve blessed eternal life in heaven, by the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, to Him belongs all glory, honor and power, together with the Father and the Holy Spirit, now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen"
Of course, it wouldn’t hurt to have an icon of any size with the image of a saint under the counter or at your workplace. Any, the most powerful prayer for trade, can be strengthened many times over with the help of an icon.
Prayer for trade to St. Nicholas the Wonderworker
Everyone knows St. Nicholas the Wonderworker: students, mothers, housewives, and merchants are no exception. Saint Nicholas, the patron saint of trade and the poor, has churches all over the world, and merchants, travelers, sailors and artisans go to him.
A prayer to Nicholas the Wonderworker must be sincere - deep faith and honest business conduct are a prerequisite. You should only pray to him if the business is experiencing problems. The Wonderworker does not help those who hunger for more; self-interest is a sin, and the saint will not encourage it. Those who work honestly and pray sincerely will be rewarded by the Lord for their purity.
To call upon Saint Nicholas for help, read the following prayer:
“Oh, our great mentor, Nikolai! You are kind and merciful, pious and generous. I ask you to hear me, your servant (name), I pray to you and hope for help in your affairs. See my work and efforts, obedience and loyalty to the Lord God. Protect from hardships and falls, add intelligence and strength. Beg the Lord for mercy for us, may he protect us from the machinations of our enemies and guide us on the right path. May you protect us from temptations and dishonest acts. May he reward us for our suffering, for our zeal and submission. We trust in your intercession, we ask for help. We fall before your holy face with prayers. Cover us with your wing from adversity and misfortune, help us not to perish in the abyss of sin and in the mud of our passions. We pray for the salvation of our souls and hope for great mercy.”
Divine Prayer
With the blessing of Kirill, Patriarch of Moscow and All Rus', Joseph Volotsky became the heavenly patron of entrepreneurs of Russian Orthodoxy. The divine prayer for successful trading is dedicated to him, the abbot, the miracle worker.
It reads like this:
“Oh, most blessed and glorious is our Father Joseph! Leading by your great boldness towards God and resorting to your firm intercession, in contrition of heart we pray to you: illuminate us (names) with the light of the grace given to you and with your prayers help us to calmly pass through the stormy sea of this life and safely reach the haven of salvation. Behold, beings who are enslaved by vain things are sin-loving and weak from the evils that have befallen us. You have shown the inexhaustible wealth of mercy in your earthly life. We believe that even after your departure you acquired a great gift to show mercy on the needy. Therefore now, as we come running to you, we tenderly ask you, Holy One of God: having been tempted, help us also who are tempted; by fasting and vigil, trample down the demonic power, and protect us from enemy attacks; nourished by the hunger of the perishing, and ask us from the Lord for an abundance of the fruits of the earth and everything needed for salvation; disgracing heretical wisdom, protect the Holy Church from heresies and schism and confusion with your prayers, so that we all may also be wise, glorifying with one heart the Holy Consubstantial, Life-giving and Indivisible Trinity, the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit forever and ever. Amen".
How to ask John the Merciful for good trade?
The prayer for trade to John the Merciful helps well at the initial stage of business development, when there are no clients yet, fame is low and income is adequate. John the Merciful, Patriarch of Alexandria is known throughout the world for his wisdom, justice and concern for the poor. The saint always paid tribute to those in need during his lifetime and people pray to him to this day.
One of the prayers to him is read on the icon, where the Saint is depicted giving alms, and it sounds like this:
“To the Saint of God John the Merciful, protector of the needy from all misfortunes! We resort to you for protection and support in all troubles and sorrows. We ask you not to cease to pray before the Lord God for all of us who turn to you in faith. Virtue was given to you by God himself. Saint John the Merciful, you are like a full-flowing river that gives water to everyone who thirsts, but its sources do not dry up. We believe in you, we know that after moving from Earth to Heaven, you continue to shower all those who suffer with generous mercies. So, through your intercession, intercede God for us so that we find peace and serenity. Grant us consolation in temporary sorrows and help in the needs of everyday life, instill in our souls hope for eternal peace in the Kingdom of Heaven. Amen".
This prayer should be said every day. A little later, things will begin to improve and income will increase. Immediately praise John and the Lord and, taking part of the income, distribute it to the poor on the porch. Thus, you contribute to the scales of global justice.
We turn to the Guardian Angel
In addition to support in the form of saints, a business person has a Guardian Angel. Old Russian merchants prayed to him, and this text was brought to our times by Siberians from the village of Kolyvan. A very strong prayer to the Guardian Angel for trading is said daily, from the beginning of the working day, bringing good luck in business. Every businessman should have such a prayer for good business in the store every day.
“I appeal to you, angel of Christ. He also protected me and protected me and kept me, for I have not sinned before and will not sin in the future against faith. So respond now, come down on me and help me. I worked very hard, and now you see my honest hands with which I worked. So let it be, as Scripture teaches, that labor will be rewarded. Reward me according to my labors, holy one, so that my hand, weary with labor, may be filled, and I may live comfortably and serve God. Fulfill the will of the Almighty and bless me with earthly bounties according to my labors. Amen".
We pray to Seraphim of Sarov
Prayer to Seraphim of Sarov for trade is a good option for those who want to attract buyers. Especially if the product is one-piece, rare and valued in narrow circles. Seraphim of Sarov, a hermit saint, is revered by people as the patron of people who know their business. Many who are confident in themselves, but not recognized by others, have found faithful admirers with the help of prayers to St. Seraphim.
A prayer for successful trading and attracting buyers to Seraphim of Sarov is read daily, before the start of the working day.
“O wonderful Father Seraphim, great miracle worker of Sarov, quick and obedient helper to all who come running to you! During the days of your earthly life, no one left you weary and inconsolable, but everyone was blessed with the vision of your face and the benevolent voice of your words. Moreover, the gift of healing, the gift of insight, the gift of healing for weak souls has appeared abundantly in you. When God called you from earthly labors to heavenly rest, your love ceased from us, and it is impossible to count your miracles, which multiplied like the stars of heaven: for throughout the ends of our earth you appeared to the people of God and granted them healing. In the same way, we cry out to you: O most quiet and meek servant of God, daring man of prayer to Him, denying no one who calls you, offer up your powerful prayer for us to the Lord of hosts, may He strengthen our power, may He grant us all that is useful in this life and all that is spiritual useful to salvation, may he protect us from the falls of sin and teach us true repentance, so that we can enter without stumbling into the eternal Heavenly Kingdom, where you now shine in unfathomable glory, and there sing with all the saints the Life-Giving Trinity until the end of the age. Amen".

The strongest prayer for trade to John of Sochavsky
For many people, trading is a professional activity. But everyone else is involved in it in one way or another. Almost every believer has had to sell something at least once in their life. Everyone knows how strong the desire is to get good money in return for a product. This desire cannot be called sinful, so believers turn to St. John the New for help.
To offer personal petitions, many prayers were compiled, including a prayer for the sale of an apartment - the strongest text compiled by the Holy Fathers for trade. The latter is very popular, since regular reading of it allows you to make a profit as quickly as possible.
RECOMMENDED: Strong prayer for your daughter.
The main thing is to sincerely believe that John the New hears your appeal and that an answer will be sent to it. The latter is guaranteed to come to the righteous who serve the Lord not only in word, but also in deed. What is important here, as in any other prayer, is purity of mind and heart.
What saints can you pray to for successful trading?
In Orthodoxy there is no specific strong prayer for trading. Any prayer text can be a powerful help if you perform the prayer ritual correctly and are a religious person.

- Spyridon of Trimifuntsky;
- Seraphim of Sarov;

Every Christian has heard about the exploits of John of Sochava. Now revered as a saint, this man did many good deeds during his lifetime, for which he was given the opportunity to sit next to the Lord. To this day, John the New supports the weak, the offended, and the needy.

Saint John of New Sochavo
Great Martyr John the New Sochava
The birthplace of the Holy Great Martyr John the New was the famous city of Trebizond, which is near the border with Assyria and Armenia. Located on the Black Sea coast, it served at that time as a convenient port and trade center. The main occupations of its inhabitants were navigation, fishing and trade. Saint John of Sochava was also involved in trade.
One day he had to sail on a foreign ship whose captain was a fryag, a man of non-Orthodox faith. Seeing John’s virtuous and immaculate life, his prayer, fasting, and mercy towards those in need on the ship or those who were sick, the captain of the ship was indignant and fiercely argued with John about faith.
But John, as a very wise and skilled man in the book business, defeated the friag in these disputes, and he was very angry with John and in the end planned the following against him.
When the ship landed on the shore near the city of Belgrade, the shipowner went to the mayor and said: “Chief! A husband came with me on the ship, who wants to renounce his faith and join yours.
If you quickly lead him to another faith, there will be great glory for you, since this man is very skilled in speech and noble in Trebizond.”
To which Saint John replied: “You are lying, O chief! I did not say that I wanted to renounce my Christ.
This is the intention of the enemy of truth, your father, Satan! I will not bow to the sun, I will not make a sacrifice to the heavenly body created by the Lord, I will not renounce Christ, my Savior.”
Then the governor ordered the soldiers to tear off the martyr’s clothes and, placing many sticks in front of him, said: “Either renounce your faith, or I will give you over to the cruelest torment and death.”
John the New Great Martyr of Sochava
Then the tormentor ordered to beat John, and the soldiers beat him with rods so much that everything around him was already stained with blood, and he was tied up in chains, barely alive, and thrown into prison.
The next morning, the tormentor again urged John to renounce his faith and, without waiting for this, he ordered to torture him again. When the soldiers who beat him were exhausted, the mayor ordered John to be tied to the tail of a fierce horse. One of the soldiers mounted a horse and drove him through the streets, dragging the martyr along the ground. Crowds of Jews threw stones at him, and one of them overtook the martyr and cut off his head with a sword.
Thus Saint John ended his suffering feat. His body lay unburied, and at night a miracle happened: lamps burned brightly over the body, and three luminous men sang sacred chants, and a pillar of fire was visible over the holy relics of the martyr.
He was about to shoot an arrow at one of them, but the arrow stuck to his fingers and the Jew could not shoot the arrow and free himself from his weapon, and so he remained until dawn.
In the morning he told the people who came here what he had seen. And then his arms straightened and he freed himself from the bow. Having learned about what happened at night, the mayor was frightened and ordered the Christians to bury the body of the martyr at their church.
After some time, the fryag who betrayed John to torture. repented of his action and decided to steal the body of the saint. He and his comrades came at night to the tomb of the martyr. But at this time Saint John appeared in a dream to the presbyter of the church where he was buried, and said: “Get up and quickly go to the church, for they want to steal me.”
Having called the pious people, he told them about what had happened, and everyone glorified God, who glorifies His Saints. Taking the relics of the holy martyr, they brought them into the church and placed them on the altar near the Holy Throne. They stayed there for more than 70 years.
Various miracles began to be performed from the relics. Rumors of this reached the great governor of Moldova, Alexander. On the advice of Archbishop Joseph, he transferred the relics of the martyr to the capital of the Moldovan state of Sochav.
The Holy Great Martyr John the New of Sochava has special grace from God to help those engaged in trade. His memory is celebrated on June 2/15.

The life story of Saint John
And with all this, the miracle worker followed the precepts of the Holy Scriptures and, without being like his comrades, always remained generous. Due to his actions, many flattering words were written about him, all of which are true.
According to historical chronicles, one day the passion-bearer set off on a ship on a journey to distant shores. With him was the captain of this ship, who was overcome by fierce envy when he observed how God-pleasing the Saint was, constantly in prayer, and also diligently observing fasting.
Upon the ship's arrival in one of the Jewish cities (in which people of the Christian faith were hated at that time), its captain went to the then local ruler and said that supposedly the god-pleaser was eager to renounce his faith in order to join Judaism and become a fire worshiper. The ruler rejoiced at these words, desiring to arrange a personal audience with the righteous man.
There is a legend that some people saw how, after the death of a righteous man, several priests in shining robes allegedly appeared over his body and said funeral prayers. The Jew, who saw this, decided to shoot one of the men with a bow, however, as soon as he aimed the gun, his body immediately became motionless, until he told those around him about what had happened.
As a rule, on divine images the Saint is depicted in the guise of a young man with a beard and thick, curly hair. With one hand he supposedly gives his blessing to anyone who asks for help, and with the other hand he holds the cross of God.
The icon of the Wonderworker of Sochava comes to the aid of all true Christian believers who turn in the following cases:
- to gain both physical and mental health;
- when problems arise in trade matters;
- when you have strayed from the true path of righteous living;
- if a person is overcome by an incurable disease;
- to receive the intercession of the Holy One in matters other than trade;
- in helping to atone for committed sins.
You can see and venerate the miraculous face of the sufferer in Moscow, in the Cathedral of the Archangel Michael, which is located on the Maiden Field (next to the Clinics). You can get to it by going to the Yugo-Zapadnaya metro station on the red line (Sokolnicheskaya).
Next, after exiting the first carriage, you should turn right and follow the direction from the center along the even side of the avenue. Vernadsky. After 10 minutes of walking you will reach the temple you need. You can also get there from the metro station by minibus, driving just a few stops (approximately 850 m).
The Holy Great Martyr John of Sochava lived in the 14th century on the territory of modern Turkey. By occupation, he was a merchant and led a pious Christian life, following the teachings of Christ not only in personal, but also in commercial matters.
How often do you pray to John of Sochansky?
The relics of the Holy Great Martyr John of Sochava are today kept in the city of Suceava (Romania) in the Church of St. George. A particle of the saint’s relics is kept in the Holy Ascension Cathedral in the city of Belgorod-Dnestrovsky - where Saint John suffered for Christ. The Church celebrates the memory of the saint on June 15.
