Prayer for children to the Lord Jesus Christ and Nicholas the Wonderworker
While the child is growing up, it is imperative to pray for him. This will allow him to grow in a harmonious world. Most often, prayers are offered to the Savior Jesus Christ and St. Nicholas the Wonderworker.
Prayers for a difficult child
If a child has difficulty studying or problems arise with his upbringing, then you need to turn to Jesus Christ with the following prayer:
“Lord Jesus Christ, you are truly the Savior of all people. You entered into the hearts of the twelve apostles and shared your truths with us through your holy lips. Send the Holy Spirit, Jesus Christ, upon the child, my child, the servant of God (the name of the child, fill his heart with the truths of the Holy Scriptures. Help him learn to live according to the commandments of God and learn earthly truths. Amen."
Prayer for children on the road
You should definitely pray for a child who is going on the road. In this case, it is better to turn to Saint Nicholas the Wonderworker in prayer. During his lifetime, he himself was a traveler, so he always responds to requests for help on the road.
The prayer text may sound like this:
“I turn to you, Saint Nicholas, with a sincere request, I, the Servant of God (proper name). Help, Great Wonderworker, my child on the road, protect him from all surprises and troubles on the road. Bless him on his long journey and protect him from all temptations, help him resist the devil’s temptations. Let my child reach his destination unharmed, protect him from any problems in a dense forest, in a swamp, in a fast river, in the endless sea. Protect him from unkind people and evil animals. With a mother’s word, I see off my child on the road and hope for Your support, Saint Nicholas. I will glorify all your good deeds in prayers until the end of my days. I completely trust the will of God. Amen".
Mother's prayer for the child's recovery
O Most Merciful God, Father, Son and Holy and Soul, worshiped and glorified in the indivisible Trinity, look with compassion on Your servant (name), who is sickly possessed; forgive him all his sins; give him healing from his illness; restore his health and bodily strength; Give him a long and prosperous life, Your peaceful and peaceful blessings, so that together with us he brings grateful prayers to You, the All-Bountiful God and my Creator. Most Holy Theotokos, through Your omnipotent intercession, help me to beg Your Son, my God, for the healing of God’s servant (name). All saints and angels of the Lord, pray to God for His sick servant (name). Amen.
Maternal prayer for children to the Mother of God
O Most Holy Lady Virgin Theotokos, save and preserve under Your shelter my children (names), all youths, young women and infants, baptized and nameless and carried in their mother’s womb. Cover them with the robe of Your motherhood, keep them in the fear of God and in obedience to their parents, pray to my Lord and Your Son to grant them what is useful for their salvation. I entrust them to Your maternal supervision, for You are the Divine Protection of Your servants. Mother of God, introduce me to the image of Your heavenly motherhood. Heal the mental and physical wounds of my children (names) caused by my sins. I entrust my child entirely to my Lord Jesus Christ and Your, Most Pure, heavenly protection. Amen.
Strong maternal prayer for children
Pronunciation of the Orthodox prayer for children:
God and Father, Creator and Preserver of all creatures! Grace my poor children (name) with Your Holy Spirit, may He kindle in them the true fear of God, which is the beginning of wisdom and direct prudence, according to which whoever acts, his praise abides forever. Bless them with true knowledge of You, keep them from all idolatry and false teaching, make them grow in the true saving faith and in all piety, and may they abide in them constantly to the end. Grant them a believing, obedient, humble heart and mind, so that they may grow in years and grace before God and before people. Plant in their hearts love for Your Divine Word, so that they may be reverent in prayer and in worship, respectful to the ministers of the Word and sincere in their actions, modest in their movements, chaste in their morals, true in their words, faithful in deeds, diligent in their studies, happy in the performance of their duties, reasonable and righteous towards all people.

Do not allow them to fall into uncleanness and unchastity, so that they do not shorten their own lives and do not offend others. Be their protector in every danger, so that they do not suffer sudden destruction. Make it so that we do not see in them dishonor and shame for ourselves, but honor and joy, so that Your Kingdom may be multiplied by them and the number of believers will increase, and may they be in heaven around Your table, like heavenly olive branches, and may they reward You with all the elect honor, praise and glorification through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
How to pray correctly?
Not every parent knows how to correctly offer prayers for a child. Mistakes are not made intentionally, but due to ignorance or inability to see and understand the situation. Among the most common omissions in this matter are the following:
- The mother or father believes that the baby belongs to them completely, because they gave him life. Suffocating love creates energetic attachment and dependence. This is fundamentally wrong. A child is a creation of God, and his soul is unique, and his destiny is entrusted to the Almighty. Wanting to help a child means trusting God;
- Often parents ask higher powers for those things for their son or daughter that they personally see as right. But selfishness and prayer are incompatible, and this should be remembered;
- This logically follows from the previous point: it is impossible to pray for the well-being of a child, having in your soul a constant fear that the opposite effect will bring misfortune or shame primarily to you. Prayer that involves personal gain (even if intangible and with good intentions) is not sincere;
- Know that the true good for your child is not always what you would like for him, no matter how cruel it may sound;
- When offering a prayer for physical health, do not forget about the spiritual and moral development of the child.
How to ask?
- Ask God and the saints for help on your child’s life path, preserving his soul and morality;
- If you want your child to grow into a worthy person, do not contradict yourself by setting a different example with your actions. Behave decently and do no harm to anyone;
- Memorizing the text of a prayer and reading it dozens of times will not bring the desired result if the prayer is performed just for show. Be sincere and pray consciously;
- The main mistake during prayer is self-deception. If you want happiness and career success for your child, but at the same time you are afraid in your heart that he will leave you in old age, this is self-delusion, which is a sin. Fear will create an energy block that will leave an imprint on the child's destiny;
- Turning to God, ask him to send the child a strong and wise Guardian Angel;
- An appeal to the Almighty to create energetic and spiritual protection for children is always justified. However, the parent himself, through his actions and piety, must deserve the basis for such a request.
The good desired for a child is, first of all, purity of spirit and continuous development. Having the qualities necessary to fulfill these conditions, he will be able to create his own happiness.

Who does the Mother of God help?
Every mother and every woman can and should read prayers to the Mother of God for children. After all, this is simply a dialogue with the Mother of God, who helps everyone living on earth. There are also prayers for the children and grandchildren of the Mother of God, that is, both grandmothers and great-grandmothers, as many centuries ago, can turn to the Queen of Heaven with a caring prayer for the family and children of the Mother of God.
The tradition of praying in certain difficulties strictly in front of a certain icon of the Mother of God is a folk one. The Orthodox Church asks to read a specific prayer compiled for the icon, but also suggests praying to the Most Holy Theotokos, asking for all needs in front of any of Her icons. Pray in your own words, ask for the help of the Queen of Heaven in everything.
Strong prayer against the evil eye and spoilage of a child
To you, as the speedy and chosen intercessor of our salvation, God’s chosen commander, who defeated the enemies with the weapon of the cross, Great Martyr Nikito, we come running with all our hearts: do not turn away from our poverty, heed our prayer, and save us and this monastery from troubles. Stretch out your hand, giving first aid. Guide our minds from harmful dispersion, and cleanse, sanctify and strengthen our defiled hearts.
Keep us from visible and invisible enemies, so that we may emerge victorious over passions, creating holiness in the passion of the Lord, and overcome all despondency and begin to rejoice in the Lord; Therefore, through your intercessions, in humility and simplicity of heart, let us be honored until our last breath to gloriously glorify the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit and glorify your divinely crowned deeds and miracles forever and ever. Amen.
Prayer to healer Panteleimon

Here is a very strong prayer for adult children to this saint:
O great servant of Christ and glorious healer, Great Martyr Panteleimon! With your soul in Heaven stand before the Throne of God and enjoy His Trinitarian glory, rest in your body and holy face on earth in Divine churches and pour out various miracles from the grace given to you from above, look with your merciful eye on the people ahead, more honorable than your icon, tenderly praying and asking for healing from you help and intercession: extend your warm prayers to the Lord our God and ask our souls for forgiveness of sins.
Behold, for our iniquity we do not dare to raise our hair to the heights of Heaven, lower to raise our voice of prayer to His unapproachable glory in the Divine, with a contrite heart and a humble spirit for you, a merciful intercessor to the Master and a prayer book for us sinners, we call upon you, as you have received Thou art the grace from Him to drive away illnesses and heal passions.
We therefore ask you: do not despise us, unworthy, who pray to you and demand your help. Be a comforter to us in sorrows, a physician to those who suffer, a quick protector to those who are sick, a giver of insight to those who are ill, a ready intercessor and healer for those who are sick and infants in sorrows: intercede for everyone everything that is useful for salvation, as through your prayers to the Lord God you have received grace and mercy, Let us glorify all the good Source and Giver of God, the One in the Trinity of Holy Ones, the glorified Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, now and ever, and unto the ages of ages. Amen.
