According to statistics, only a quarter of the population has never used credit, while the remaining three quarters are actively accumulating credit debts.
It is quite difficult to get out of such a situation safely, and often it happens that it is completely impossible.
A strong prayer for debts and loans will help an Orthodox person to get out of the “debt hole.” At the fervent requests of those in need, many miracles are performed, including those related to material problems.

Not everyone can comprehend and use prayers that are not adapted to modern language. This, frankly speaking, is quite difficult. And when a person is very upset, it is simply impossible. The prayer “For deliverance from debts” can be translated into a modern way. Many people do this now. The clergy do not object, since the Lord hears everyone through their thoughts and intentions.
For example, you can say this: “The Lord is the Source of what I own. If I worry, then I show distrust in Him. I understand that banknotes are only a fraction of the wealth that the Lord provides me. I believe that He will allow me to multiply what I now have many times over. With His help, ways will open for me to pay my debts. I hand over the list of them into the hands of the Lord. I thank Him for His help. He will allow you to pay for everything in Divine order. He sends wealth into my life so that every creditor receives his due. I believe! I'll get everything I deserve! I'll get rid of debts. Amen!".
It is up to you to decide in what terms to conduct your conversation with the Lord. It is important that you believe sincerely and passionately that help will inevitably come. Read selected prayers three times a day. Rely on the Supreme kindness and justice. All problems will certainly be resolved.
Preparation for prayer work
Not every person enters the walls of the Temple of God with a kind heart and pure thoughts.
But in order for Christ’s Saints to hear the sighs of the suffering, it is necessary to give up pride, be humble, have a kind and forgiving soul, bright thoughts and love in the heart.
Prayer in the temple
It is necessary to understand that the financial test was sent from Above for something, so you need to comprehend the real cause of the troubles. There is no need to blame anyone for the current problems.
If a person has sinned, he is obliged to repent before God in the Sacrament of Confession and be held accountable for his actions.

Prayer for debt repayment will help not only throw off the heavy burden of material responsibilities, but also choose the path of purifying the soul, gaining faith in the justice and kindness of Christ.
How does it help?
In our unstable life, everyone can face a lack of money. Finding yourself in an unpleasant position, a person becomes defenseless and vulnerable. In this case, turning to prayer to the Almighty and His saints can help find peace of mind. The main thing is not to fall into despair and not to grumble at God.
Believers noted that after prayer they were soon able to find a new job, get a promotion, and take their business to another level. The secret is simple: when the soul stops thinking only about how to get money and learns to completely trust God, financial problems gradually recede in the most unexpected way.

But you shouldn’t expect that reading certain words once, as if by magic, will solve all your problems. Money will not fall from the sky on your head. A person must make an effort to change the situation. First of all, analyze why this happened and what mistakes were made.
Important! All tests sent to people are aimed at saving the soul mired in sin. And if you don’t draw any conclusions, you can’t expect a miracle.
How to pray correctly
A prayer request is a sincere conversation between a person and a saint, a request for help.
It is important to be a believing Orthodox Christian, to lead a pious life, to participate in Church Sacraments, and to be freed from accumulated sins.
- Requests should be made sincerely, without deception or pretense.
- Before starting the prayer, you must apologize for your sins, committed voluntarily or involuntarily.
- When addressing a saint, you should be focused on your words and not be distracted by extraneous conversations and thoughts (these are the machinations of the devil, who dreams of getting a sinful soul).
- The text must be pronounced clearly and clearly, with the desire to be heard.
- You should not read his words to yourself, it will not bring any benefit (you need to read it in a whisper or out loud).
- You need to ask a saint for help more than once; it happens that a person waits for what he asks for for several years.
- If you can’t achieve what you want, then you shouldn’t sin, blaspheme God and lose faith - the Lord will definitely reward the one asking for patience and humility.
- It is advisable, in addition to prayer, to read an akathist to the saint for 40 days, but not everyone can master this action (it is necessary to obtain the blessing of a priest for the feat of prayer).
- During fasting, you cannot read the akathist, but you need to pray daily.
Who should I contact?
A prayer for getting rid of debts is said at the Icon of St. Mamant. His fate is interesting. Mamant's ordeal began even before birth. His parents died at the hands of the executioner for their strong commitment to Christianity. The boy was raised by strangers. From an early age he believed in Christ, for which he was repeatedly tortured. He was executed at the age of fifteen. At the same time, he was tortured, then thrown to the animals to be torn to pieces, but they did not touch him. This martyr should be asked for relief from debts. Prayer will strengthen you and give you strength to fight temptations and hardships. Just imagine the life of Saint Mamant, who endured so much at a young age. Are your problems comparable to his?
Prayer to St. Nicholas the Wonderworker
The Holy Pleasant helps people solve any, even the most difficult problems. When the situation seems hopeless, and there is nowhere else to wait for help, you need to turn to St. Nicholas the Wonderworker, but sincerity and faith are important. If an unscrupulous debtor does not want to return the money and avoids you in every possible way, it is recommended to use the following prayer, which is read daily until a positive result is achieved:
These sacred words have incredible power, so there is no doubt that in the shortest possible time the loan will be repaid in full. Moreover, the garden man will make himself known, and you will no longer have to run after him.
In order for the prayer for the repayment of debt to gain the greatest power, it is necessary to read it in front of the face of the saint to whom the words are addressed. In addition, you need to sincerely forgive the “borrower” and wish him to solve his financial difficulties. Also, you should not tell your loved ones that you have turned to higher powers for help and support - it is better to keep it a secret.
