Prayer to Nicholas the Wonderworker, changing fate in 40 days

Why do people pray to St. Nicholas the Wonderworker?

Saint Nicholas was a deeply religious man, and he tried throughout his life to testify to Christ. What is the best evidence? Of course, doing good deeds. That is why we try to be like St. Nicholas when we give gifts to our loved ones, gifts to those who need them, we try to help our neighbors (neighbors not of flesh, not of blood, but to those people who need a kind word, that or other thing).

Nicholas the Wonderworker defended his church. He tried to preach Christ in both word and deed. We know that St. Nicholas helped those in need. And this tradition - to give gifts, that is, to be like St. Nicholas, it has been preserved and has survived to this day.

The saint was able to maintain the intact faith that Jesus Christ commanded us. Today, many of us look only at our material well-being, forgetting about the spiritual world. Until a person returns to God, until he seeks help and admonition, until he becomes like St. Nicholas, he will endure life’s problems.

40-day prayer to St. Nicholas the Wonderworker, changing fate

Christians believe that fate can be changed for the better. At the same time, they know very well that life can only be changed for the better by turning to the Almighty. Naturally, there is no universal prayer that would change fate. For example, the thief who repented on the cross next to Jesus Christ only had to say a few words for his fate to change.

This prayer to change fate is considered very powerful and widely read among Christian believers. However, only a baptized person who believes in God can read the sacred text, otherwise the conversion will not bring any results. In this case, the miraculous prayer must be read for 40 days in a row. If you suddenly missed a day, it is recommended to start all over again.

Prayer can only help those who believe in its power. Therefore, do not doubt that in the future your life will improve and you will become happy. Changes for the better can happen both in your personal life and at work. If you are faced with a specific problem, then when you ask the saint, think about its successful resolution.

It is believed that a prayer to St. Nicholas the Wonderworker, which changes fate and marriage, will be even more effective if you listen to prayer singing during the day. In addition, such sounds have a positive effect on the psyche and can even heal.

When to Prayer

Modern medicine has reached significant heights, but at the same time, almost every hospital has its own temple, a small chapel, or at least a room with images for prayer. This fact is understandable, because prayer to St. Nicholas the Wonderworker for healing has helped people many times.

The most surprising thing here is when treatment helped better than modern medicine or when medicine could not do anything at all.

There is recorded evidence of situations where the healing and recovery of a patient cannot be explained by any logical arguments, but is a fact.

Therefore, an appeal to St. Nicholas the Pleasant is relevant, especially:

before operations and the start of treatment;
before a serious examination or diagnosis;
about healing yourself from illness when things get hard;
if another person, for example a baby or relative, cannot or is not used to praying for himself;
in the process of treating a serious illness, for example, about healing from cancer, during the entire period of treatment.

Of course, there are no strict regulations here, but, of course, asking for healing of a runny nose seems somehow not entirely reasonable and worthwhile.

Also, when it comes to healing a child, it is often more useful not to immediately run to the image, but to use effective treatment methods. After all, some illnesses are given to people in order to have the opportunity to think a little and take a break from the bustle of everyday life; they are needed precisely so that people think about the Lord.

Who is Nicholas the Wonderworker?

The Great Wonderworker is a wondrous miracle of God given to the whole Earth. Especially our Fatherland, because in its vast expanses there is no corner where they do not know about this great Pleasant. That is why Rus' is full of churches in his honor and praise. And the number of these temples is constantly increasing, despite the fact that he lived far from us - across the sea in Asia Minor. Yes, and it was a very long time ago - in the 4th century after the Nativity of Christ. Back then, people had never even heard of Rus', because Orthodox Rus' was born only 600 years later. And then our compatriots accepted Christ with all their hearts and fell in love with His saint.

But what made St. Nicholas fall in love with our Motherland with its bitter frosts? Yes, our country is indeed northern and cold. But the faith of our ancestors was very ardent. And, indeed, if some misfortune happens to a Russian peasant, he immediately runs to the red corner: “Saint Nicholas, help. Don't leave me." Of course, Saint Nicholas sends him an ambulance.

Our Church calls St. Nicholas “the rule of faith and the image of meekness.” “Image” means a model, the best example. Why is He called the “rule of faith”? For devotion to Orthodoxy and willingness to defend the faith. This is how Saint Archbishop Nicholas was throughout all the years of his life. For his strong faith and pure heart, the Lord from his youth endowed him with the gift of providence. He got up to pray, and the Lord revealed to him the needs of every believer, especially those who needed help the most.

Saint Nicholas knew how necessary this divine help was for people, because, for example, he himself, while living on earth, was in poverty at sea many times, and through his sincere prayer the Lord tamed the waves. For one righteous man, God saved everyone who sailed on the ship. And if he was not on the ship, in this case the Lord, at his request, saved people from death.

Once upon a time, brave sailors sailed from Egypt to the Lycian country and found themselves in a terrible storm. The sails were torn off, giant waves smashed the ships, and the sailors almost despaired of salvation. But then they remembered the intercessor Nicholas, who was far from them in the Lycian worlds, and turned to him with fervent prayers. A miracle has happened! At that very moment Saint Nicholas appeared before them and said: “You called me, and I came to your aid! Do not be afraid!". He himself took the helm. The wind gradually died down, and they arrived home safely. So it was in the 4th century, and so it is in the 21st century. After all, even today Saint Nicholas the Wonderworker vigilantly stands in prayer and he has not stopped loving Holy Rus', he sees all our sorrows and sorrows and generously sends us his help. We only need to open our hearts, and we will definitely hear his kind and affectionate word.

Saint Nicholas is the most revered saint in all of Rus'. In his honor, most churches and icons were consecrated after the Mother of God. Not only Orthodox people pray to him, but also Muslims, Buddhists and even atheists. Why is he so revered? This is because the overwhelming majority of people who addressed his prayers themselves encountered facts of God’s miraculous help or this happened to their loved ones. In addition, many have heard about miracles from someone they know or believe that with God everything is possible.

Just imagine what a huge number of people came across with the help of Nikolai Ugodnik. And this is not somewhere far away among other people, but in your own life or in the lives of your relatives. In the comments on our Orthodox portal, people began to write many different cases when they themselves encountered the fact that through prayers to St. Nicholas the Lord helped them. If you think about how many people the saint has already helped, it becomes clear why he is so revered. We can give many different cases and examples, but above all, this should serve to strengthen our faith. Because the problem of every Orthodox person today is weak faith. If we had faith in the Lord, such as St. Nicholas the Pleasant and his contemporaries, then our life would be completely different. But weak faith does not allow a person to stop committing some wrong actions or sins. He lacks the willpower to change his life and come to the Lord. But we can resort to the help of not only the Lord, but also the saints, asking them to pray to the Creator with us.

Here is the text of one of the most powerful prayers to St. Nicholas the Pleasant, which changes fate in 40 days. At first glance, it may seem long to you, but in fact, it will take about 10-15 minutes to pronounce.

Be patient, as this prayer is read for 40 days. That is, you will not feel the first results immediately, but if you do everything correctly, they will definitely please you.

Mandatory conditions for prayer:

You need to read the prayer every day for 40 days, without skipping it, otherwise you will have to do it all over again. Even if you need to leave for a few days, take the text with you and read it when you have the opportunity. Don't make excuses, be patient, think about what the results will be.

Sometimes a person asks and in the middle of prayer he realizes that he doesn’t need this, because he wants something else. It turns out he didn't fully know himself. If the Lord immediately hurried to fulfill our desires, we would not be showered with various blessings, but with problems that we did not expect. Because the vast majority of what we ask for is not what we need because we don’t know ourselves. The Lord can give us everything in a second, but we must be ready to receive the gifts. It is long-term petition, patience and diligence that prepares a container for the gifts that are ready to be poured out.
