How prayer affects illness
Why do people resort to prayer during illness? Disease is a blockage of weak areas of the aura. If the aura is clean, then energy moves freely through energy channels. Stagnation of energy and blocks lead to illness, as well as a general deterioration of the condition.
Prayer is the most accessible way to remove blocks and cleanse the aura of a sick person.
Even doctors and scientists recognize the power of turning to Higher powers, without knowing how to scientifically explain the effect of prayer words. By reading prayers, even hopelessly ill people recover. Therefore, in the crazy cycle of affairs, you should not neglect an affordable and powerful healing remedy.
Every person needs to remember that negative statements, bad thoughts and actions pollute our energy field. Nothing passes without a trace, this has long been known.
Try to remember: only positivity “works” to benefit our energy, and therefore our health.
These are the negative phenomena that pollute our energy field:
- Conflicts, irritation, rage. They will definitely affect the integrity of the subtle body.
- Grievances that were not forgiven. This is the most dangerous type of negativity, which can even lead to cancer. Old grievances that corrode the soul are especially dangerous. Don’t accumulate, don’t hold on to old grievances for years. Forgive everyone, even the most sophisticated enemies, save your soul.
- If you are burdened by memories of past joyless experiences and cannot let them go, then your body loses energy. Let go while learning valuable lessons.
Knowing the reasons that pollute the energy field, try to avoid them, then you will be healthy. If the burden of life is too heavy, try saying a prayer. (You can read one prayer several times). Very soon you will feel how your soul brightens, how grievances go somewhere, the burden of the past no longer seems so exorbitant.
Thanksgiving
Upon recovery, they thank the Lord and the holy heavenly intercessor.
Prayer upon the onset of healing : “Glory to Thee, Lord Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of the beginningless Father, who alone heals every ailment and every disease among people, for you have had mercy on me, a sinner, and delivered me from my illness, not allowing it to develop and kill me according to my sins. Grant me from now on, Master, the strength to firmly do Your will for the salvation of my damned soul and for Your glory with Your beginningless Father and Your consubstantial Spirit, now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen".
A pious and godly deed would be to serve a thanksgiving prayer service in church. An akathist is read as a prayer of thanks to the saint who helped him to be healed. Depending on their income, they make a donation to the temple, decorate the icon of the saint, and bring flowers.
How to improve your health with prayer words
Health is such an important part of our lives that we should value it most of all. You can't buy health even for millions. If you ask mothers what they would like for their children, they will answer - health.
Parents begin to feed the child vitamins, pour cold water on him, send him to sports clubs, forgetting that only the Almighty is able to give the most important value to every person - his health.
People are given prayers so that with their help they can strengthen their souls and health. And for the help to be effective, you need to spend 5-10 minutes daily, with deep faith in your soul, in prayer in the morning and evening. You should definitely thank God for everything you have.
But for some reason people forget about God when they feel good, and more often turn to the Lord when they are pressed against the wall.
Prayers to the Most Holy Theotokos before icons for health and healing
The Virgin Mary is traditionally revered by the Russian Orthodox Church as one of the key figures of the Divine world. The Savior's Mother earned veneration during her lifetime, but after her death she was immediately canonized as a saint, capable of influencing the earthly life of every believer.
Theotokos, Mother of God, Virgin Mary, Blessed Virgin - all these are names given by believers to designate the role that the Virgin played in the history of Christianity.
They traditionally pray to the Mother of God for recovery and ask for the health of relatives and friends. The Virgin Mary patronizes those who are in the grip of serious illnesses, she is always ready to help and heal the soul and mind of a sick person.
Mothers often resort to the help of the Mother of God, asking to save their children from illness.
You can pray in front of any icon of the Virgin Mary, but the following are considered the most popular:
- "Vladimirskaya". An ancient image depicting the Mother of God with a baby in her arms. The young Savior presses his head to his mother’s chest. This scenario inspires special awe, because before believers appears a real child who was sent into the world to atone for the sins of mankind, but he is still very small and does not understand anything.
- "Kazanskaya". An icon where the Savior no longer appears as a baby. He holds the royal realities in his hands, thereby making it clear that he is responsible for the promises made.
- "The Unbreakable Wall" The oldest image where the Mother of God is depicted in full growth. She holds her hands raised to the sky and, as it were, steps forward to meet all believers.
- "Tenderness." This is an old Russian cell-type icon. The image, according to researchers, was painted by Seraphim of Sarov. The Mother of God holds the baby in her arms and bows her head to his head. A barely noticeable smile plays on his lips. Icon painters also lean towards this type of image when painting the Vladimir Icon of the Mother of God.

How to pray for healing from an illness
- First you need to repent of your sins. If it is not possible to go to confession in church, then you should repent, turning to the Lord.
- You also need to cleanse yourself of everything bad, accept and admit your imperfection.
- Then turn to God for help.
Believers often turn to saints for help, because they devoted all the days of their earthly lives to serving our Lord and helping mere mortals. Now their powerful energy helps everyone who turns to them.
The effect of prayer can appear immediately or over time. The main thing is that the ailments recede, the usual life goes on as usual.
The most powerful prayer among Orthodox believers is an appeal to Saint Panteleimon for health:
“O great saint of Christ, passion-bearer and much-merciful physician, Panteleimon! Have mercy on me, a sinful slave, hear my groaning and cry, propitiate the heavenly, supreme Physician of our souls and bodies, Christ our God, may He grant me healing from the illness that oppresses me.
Accept the unworthy prayer of the most sinful man above all. Visit me with a gracious visit. Do not disdain my sinful sores, anoint me with the oil of your mercy and heal me: yes, healthy in soul and body, I can spend the rest of my days, by the grace of God, in repentance and pleasing God and will be worthy to receive the good end of my life. Hey, servant of God! Pray to Christ God, that through your intercession he may grant me health to my body and salvation to my soul. Amen."
You can pronounce words silently or out loud anywhere and anytime. Sincere faith in the help of God and the saints as a result helps to cope with any illness.
Who do the saints help?
God is merciful to everyone, and there is no reason why He cannot help the sick get better. Any request coming from a heart in which God is present will be heard. Prayer works if it is sincere and not hypocritical.
It is important that this person is baptized in the temple. You can pray for someone who has not yet been baptized, but the power to convert is less. The name given to him at baptism refers to a sick person. The secular name often differs from the name mentioned in the sacred books, but the Lord heals the sufferer with the name with which he came to Him.
If possible, they fast, confess and receive communion before prayer. Illness is often a test of human sin. After repentance in confession, faster healing occurs. Children do not suffer - those who are without sin do not have to confess.
The greatest power in Holy Communion is that the Holy Spirit enters a person and helps him in the fight against illness. Mothers and their children should take communion before praying for the health of the child. The saints help all those who sincerely pray, prevent illness, help in healing and recover after surgery.
