I was single for several years. At first, this did not interfere with anything - I studied, built a career, met with friends... Then they suddenly got married, and there was no one to even go to the movies with. For the first time, I felt a pang of loneliness; I wanted a close soul nearby.
But, unfortunately, none of the guys around me seemed like a couple to me - there were sympathy, there was a feeling of friendship and respect, but I didn’t feel love for anyone.
Previously, I asked the Lord to help me obtain a diploma and find a job, but now I began to ask for one thing: teach my soul to love a man, and for this love to be mutual. And He heard my requests...
Muslim prayer for happiness and good luck
In Islam, it is believed that a Muslim must turn to Allah with prayer for any reason. Family is treated with great respect in the Muslim world. This is confirmed in real life by the low number of divorces. Therefore, it is understandable that in the Koran there are many prayers that attract good luck and prosperity to family life.
The most common Muslim prayer for happiness in translation is as follows:
“Truly, we all on earth belong completely to Allah and, truly, all of us on earth always return to Him.
O Great Allah, only to You do I prepare to account for everything I have done. I will tell you about all my actions and hope for tips for correctly overcoming all my misfortunes. Reward me in this life for the patience I show, and replace possible misfortune with something that is better.”
Another powerful prayer translated goes like this:
“Oh, Allah the Great and Almighty, I ask You for benefits for myself on the basis of Your omniscience. I ask that You manifest Your power on the basis of Your omnipotence. I ask for Your mercy for myself. Truly, you are omnipotent, but I am powerless. You know everything about the unknown, but this is not given to me. O Allah! Support me in my life, make it easier and fill it with happiness and love. Let me find good.”
Who else do they pray for love or a happy family life?
- First of all, you can turn to the Lord. We can send any of our prayers to Him, because He is omnipotent.
- To your guardian angel. You can also turn to him with any request - that’s why the Lord appointed him to help us in everything.
- To the patron saint whose name they received at birth.
- Nicholas the Wonderworker. There is a legend about a father who could not give his daughters a dowry and marry them off. He decided to give them away for fornication, but Saint Nicholas threw three bags of gold into their house at night. The girls got married safely, and their father repented.
- Apostle Andrew the First-Called. Among the miracles of this apostle, performed during an educational journey through the lands entrusted to him by Christ, he resurrected the husband of a good woman.
- Martyrs Adrian and Natalia. Adrian was awarded martyrdom for his faith. His wife Natalia looked after him in prison until his execution, and after that she was faithful to him until her death.
- Righteous Joachim and Anna. These are the parents of the Blessed Virgin Mary. The life of this couple was happy and rich, but they did not have children. They prayed for a long time for offspring, and finally the Lord sent them a daughter.
What prayers does a priest recommend for a person who has firmly decided that he does not want to become a monk, wants to start a family, but has not yet found his soul mate? Father answers:
Orthodox prayer for happiness in personal life
In Orthodoxy, great attention is paid to well-being in family life. One of the sacraments in Orthodoxy is marriage. Therefore, not only married people, but also single people can ask the Almighty for happiness in their personal lives.
The prayer appeal to the Lord sounds like this:
“Lord God, Heavenly Father! I, the servant of God (proper name), pray to You to grant me a prosperous and happy family life. Let complete mutual understanding and respect for each other reign in my family. May our love in the family constantly strengthen and multiply. I ask You, Lord, to teach me to love my soul mate with all my heart and completely trust him, because without trust there will be no happiness in my personal life. Tell me, Lord, what I need to remove from my character that is harmful to a happy personal life. Fill my life with wisdom and patience so that irritation and hostility never arise towards my loved one. Amen".
How to pray correctly?
First of all, it is important for yourself to understand what marriage is. Why is it needed? It is important to understand that this is not a way to solve your own problems by shifting them to your husband. No.
Marriage is about humility and patience. A kind of another test that must be passed with honor. There is no need to cry and worry that “the years go by, but there is still no love.” The Lord has his own plans, we just have to humbly wait and pray.
But prayers by themselves mean nothing. Faith and state of mind are important. The Holy Fathers recommend, first of all:
- confess;
- make a pilgrimage, for example, to St. Petersburg, to Saint Blessed Xenia of St. Petersburg;
- lead a righteous life;
- pray.
Prayer for happiness and well-being in the family
An appeal to Saint Xenia of St. Petersburg is considered a strong prayer for happiness and well-being in the family. Such a prayer request is a particularly effective way if difficult times come in family relationships and family life is under threat.
Ksenia of Petersburg lived a difficult life, but at the same time she was given by God to know a happy family life, albeit a very short one. Her beloved husband passed away very early, and the woman decided to devote herself to serving God. She gave up everything she had and began to wander. At first, the strange woman caused ridicule, but soon people noticed that prosperity reigned in the places where the tramp visited. In addition, Ksenia discovered the gift of providence, and she began to give useful advice to people, thus improving their personal lives.
The Holy Prayer sounds like this:
“Oh, Holy All-Blessed Saint Xenia! You lived your earthly life under the roof of the Almighty, the gift God gave you was special, and you helped many people improve their family life. All your good deeds were strengthened by the power of the Most Holy Theotokos. You have suffered many sorrows in your life after the loss of your beloved spouse. You had to experience hunger and thirst and endure human ridicule. You had to endure persecution, but your soul did not harden, you won the hearts of people with your insight and made life easier for the suffering with your miracles. You have dedicated your entire life to serving the Lord, and for this your soul rests in the heavenly shadow of the Almighty. Now the Holy Church and all believers glorify your deeds. Everyone who visits your burial place sincerely prays to you for your help. And I, the servant of God, offer a prayer before your Holy image. Accept my bold request and pray to the All-Merciful Lord for forgiveness of my sins. Convey to God my prayer for family happiness. Please pray for his blessing and deliverance from all sorrows and troubles. Help me, Holy Blessed One, to raise my children in the fear of God, in honesty and integrity. Contribute to this, Holy Elder, to grant them success in their studies and protect them from terrible ailments. Pray to the Lord for the establishment of peace and tranquility in our country, so that we are not threatened by enemy attacks. Grant us, in our calm and serene life, hope for eternal life after death in the Kingdom of Heaven. Amen".
Prayer to attract money into life: who to pray to
Many people believe that asking saints for help in money matters is a sin. After all, Jesus Christ was poor. But you can read words to any saints about help before God, so that he will be merciful and help them get out of difficult financial situations in life.

Prayer for female family happiness
Every woman dreams of calm family happiness. A special prayer will help to attract prosperity into your personal life. Higher Powers are sure to hear prayers for women’s family happiness, because the Church considers family an integral part of faith and service to God.
It is important to pray to the Higher Powers for female family happiness in a calm state and a positive attitude. After quarrels and conflicts, prayer will be useless. And if there is anger in the soul, then, as the priests believe, a prayer for the granting of family happiness can even do harm, since it will not bring the desired peace and will shake faith in the soul.
Prayers for family happiness are prayer texts that require repeated reading. That is, they need to be read as many times as your heart tells you. But the best reading is considered to be eight times, because the number “8” is associated with a large number of different signs and beliefs in Orthodoxy.
A strong prayer is considered to be an appeal to the Most Holy Theotokos, which sounds like this:
“Mistress of Heaven, Most Holy Virgin Mary, Mother of our Savior Jesus Christ, Holy Intercessor, Helper and Patroness! I, the servant of God (my own name), ask You to cover my family with Your protective heavenly cover, I ask You to soften the heart of my husband and lead all household members to peace, love and respect. May their souls be open to all that is good. Deliver us from sorrows and troubles, so that we do not experience premature, difficult separation and parting. Do not allow a terrible premature death without repentance and allow us all to sincerely believe and have hope for eternal life after death in the Kingdom of God in Heaven. May the Lord beg forgiveness for all our sins, known and unknown, for which we sincerely repent. Amen".
If this prayer is read at least once a week in front of the image of the Most Holy Theotokos with a lit church candle in complete solitude, then peace and tranquility will reign in the family.
