Prayer so that my son is not afraid to go to school. Heavenly forces are happy to help those who wish

There is nothing stronger than a mother's love for her son. She has incredible power and is capable of working real miracles. And if you combine the love of a mother with prayers to the Lord for her son, then nothing can compare in power to this.

However, in our life it happens that a mother resorts to strong prayers for her son only when his life becomes unbearable and is accompanied by continuous failures and problems. It doesn't matter when the mother turns to the Higher Powers. The main thing is that it is from the heart. Only then will the Lord come to the rescue and put everything in its place.

There is nothing stronger than a mother's love for her son

Situations when men are accompanied by complete misfortunes are not uncommon in our world. Sometimes it is not clear why life’s troubles haunt specific people.

How mother's prayers are read

The environment should be quiet and calm. In front of the person praying, it is necessary to place an icon of the Mother of God, Jesus Christ, or the Saint to whom the petition is dedicated. There must be a burning church candle next to the face.

If a prayer is said in front of a sleeping child, then after finishing the pronunciation he should be crossed. Words can be spoken both within the walls of the house and in the temple.

Download the text of mother's prayers for her son

“A mother’s prayer will reach you from the bottom of the sea” - this proverb has long become a byword. It was not said for the sake of a catchphrase. This is a truth that is relevant at all times, confirmed by countless examples of the amazing power and effectiveness of the prayers of millions of mothers. Holy maternal love is capable of overcoming any obstacles, achieving the impossible and creating real miracles.

A mother's word has special power. There is nothing brighter and more selfless than a mother’s love. From the first day of birth of a child, the mother lives by his breath, his tears and smiles. The child needs the mother. This is the meaning of her life. Love for her baby is as natural to her as the blossoming of gardens in spring. Just as the sun sends out its rays, warming all living things, so a mother’s love warms a child. The mother introduces the child to life. She puts into his mouth the native language, which has absorbed the wealth of the mind, thoughts and feelings of the people. It fills him with spiritual strength and helps him comprehend eternal values.

The relationship between parents and children is modeled after our relationship with God, our Heavenly Parent. Therefore, the Lord gave parents special power over children: Children, be obedient to your parents in everything, for this is pleasing to the Lord (Col. 3:20). The commandment to honor parents is not only an order, failure to comply with which is a sin. The Lord connected our longevity on earth with its fulfillment: Honor your father and your mother, so that your days may be long in the land that the Lord your God is giving you (Exodus 20:12). The Holy Apostle Paul says that this is the first commandment with a promise (Eph. 6:2). A sad fate awaits a son or daughter who offends parents and openly disregards their authority and power. The eye that mocks the father and neglects obedience to the mother will be pecked out by the crows of the valley, and the eagle's chicks will be devoured! (Prov. 30:17). The special power of maternal prayer is associated with the power that the Lord God gave to the mother over her children. One of the most edifying examples of great maternal love and prayer for a spiritually perishing son is the prayerful feat of Monica, the mother of Blessed Augustine, who was ten years in captivity of the disastrous false teaching of the Manichaean sect. The son she begged for not only escaped hell, but also became a saint. In his “Confessions,” Blessed Augustine dedicated the most touching words to his mother: “You stretched out Your hand from on high and “drew my soul” from this deep darkness, when my mother, Your faithful servant, mourned me before You more than the mothers of dead children mourn . She saw my death by virtue of her faith and the spirit that she possessed from You - and You heard her, Lord; You heard her and did not despise the tears that streamed the earth in every place where she prayed; You heard her” (Confession. Book III. 11.19).

Snatched from the clutches of death

An interesting story was told to me by a former atheist during a recent pilgrimage trip. Only daughter Irina S. 15-year-old Anya was riding a motorcycle with a friend and got into terrible accident. The friend died, and the girl was taken to intensive care with severe injuries. The doctor admitted to the mother that her daughter had very little chance of survival, and she must mentally prepare for the worst. Not remembering herself, Irina walked out of the hospital without making out the way, her heart was breaking with grief and hopelessness. She didn’t believe in God, never prayed, and then suddenly, obeying a spiritual impulse, she went into the church, from which people were leaving after the service. Timid hope stirred in her heart, and she prayed: “Lord, if You really exist, help, I beg You, save my Anya!!!” She prayed long and earnestly, and she felt better. The priest who came up, after listening to her story, consoled Irina and advised her not to give up prayer and to believe that with God’s help everything would end well. A few months later, the happy mother came to the temple with her daughter to thank God. Anya limped slightly, but felt quite tolerable. Now they are permanent parishioners of the ancient Moscow church, in which Irina begged for her daughter and found sincere faith.

Commemoration at the Divine Liturgy (Church Note)

Health is commemorated for those who have Christian names, and repose is remembered only for those baptized in the Orthodox Church.

Notes can be submitted at the liturgy:

For proskomedia - the first part of the liturgy, when for each name indicated in the note, particles are taken from special prosphoras, which are subsequently lowered into the Blood of Christ with a prayer for the forgiveness of sins

Many examples of God's help to mothers can be found on the pages of Holy Scripture. During his earthly life, the Savior himself healed many times and snatched someone’s sons and daughters from the clutches of death. Some stories were included in the canonical Gospels. For example, in the city of Nain, Christ was touched by the grief of a widow weeping over the tomb only son. Having consoled the unfortunate mother, He said: “Young man! I’m telling you, get up!” And the incredible happened - the dead man came to life, sat up in the tomb and began to speak (Luke 7: 12-16). The shocked people rejoiced and praised God, and the mother and her revived son at that moment were probably the happiest people in the world.

Often, family troubles are allowed to people who are far from spiritual life in order to return them to the true path. Finding themselves in a situation where there is no one else to rely on except God, many mothers and their children learn to pray and radically change their lives for the better.

Muscovite Elena K. was dying of pneumonia in the hospital two year old son Sasha. Neither IVs nor strong antibiotics helped. The baby wheezed and moaned in his mother’s arms, it seemed that he would not survive another night. Lena was a “believer at heart,” she didn’t go to church and didn’t know the prayers. She prayed as best she could, begging God to save her son, but it seemed that He did not hear her. Remembering her “very devout” friend, she called her in the middle of the night. Having learned about her grief, she called her confessor, and he immediately held a prayer service for the health of the seriously ill baby Alexander. Closer to the morning, the baby fell asleep soundly, and his breathing improved noticeably, the wheezing almost stopped, the crisis was over. From the next day, Sasha felt noticeably better, and he quickly began to recover.

When children are ill, you can pray not only to Christ and the Mother of God, but also to numerous Orthodox saints. Among them special help famous are Nicholas the Wonderworker, Martyr Tryphon, Great Martyr Panteleimon, Blessed Xenia of Petersburg, Saint Matrona of Moscow and many others.

It happens that children of true Christians become seriously ill and find themselves on the brink of life and death. Such tests strengthen faith and stimulate improvement in spiritual life.

The future Metropolitan Veniamin (Fedchenkov) suffered from lobar pneumonia in early childhood and almost died. The mother begged God and the saints to save her son, and vowed to make a walking pilgrimage to the relics of St. Mitrophan of Voronezh, revered in the family. The son recovered, and she fulfilled her vow, walking more than 200 kilometers from her native village of Vyazhli, Tambov province, to Voronezh, and then back. After that, for the sake of the health and well-being of her children, she vowed to God to strictly fast not only every Wednesday and Friday, but also on Mondays, and strictly observed this rule all her life.

The mother of the future bishop, the popular Orthodox ascetic Tryphon (Turkestanov), found herself in a similar situation in the early 60s of the 19th century. Begging for her dying son Borya, Varvara Alexandrovna especially earnestly prayed to the holy martyr Tryphon and promised that if the boy recovered, she would try to dedicate him to the service of God. The future saint learned about this maternal vow only many years later, when, at the behest of his soul, he became a monk, taking the name of his heavenly patron.

In Greece, on the island of Euboea, the relics of the holy wonderworker John the Russian are kept. There are many examples of people who prayed to him being healed of cancer. The book “Tears of a Mother” describes a case when in a poor Cypriot family from the city of Limassol, two brothers, 6 and 8 years old, slowly died from leukemia. One day their parents bought an icon of the saint, and the mother began to pray: “Saint John, I beg you, make my children recover! Visit our house and heal my sons!” The children's condition has improved noticeably. They did a blood test and it turned out that everything was normal! But until recently, tests showed a severe form of the disease, and doctors believed that the children would not last long. Happy parents and sons came to the miraculous relics and with tears thanked God and His holy saint John...

From time immemorial mother's prayers saved people from imminent death on land and at sea. In the book of sermons, Archimandrite Kronid (Lyubimov) cites as an example the story of the Smolensk landowner Ekaterina Dudinskaya and her son who lived in St. Petersburg. In 1842, on the eve of seeing off his beloved officer son on a long voyage, his mother was tormented by bad premonitions. Arriving in Tsarskoe Selo, Katerina served a prayer service before miraculous icon"The Omen Mother of God“And she prayed for a long time on her knees, asking: “Queen of Heaven, I entrust my son to You and all my hope is in You, You will return him to me from the bottom of the sea!”

On the way, the ship "Ingermanland" was caught in a terrible storm. In the Skagerrak Strait off the coast of Norway, the ship received a hole when it hit a rock and sank. About 400 people died. The captain and many officers, including Dudinsky, were washed off the deck by the waves at the time of the crash. Feeling imminent death, he began to pray: “Most Holy Theotokos, save me! Save me at least for the sake of my mother’s prayers!” A wave covered him, and he lost consciousness, and when he woke up, he realized that he was lying on the shore near the water, alive and unharmed.

Return from darkness

Many good believing mothers have had to worry about their children dying in the whirlpool of a vicious, dissolute life. Some had to spend many years in sorrow, humbly waiting and hoping. Their holy tears and prayers were not in vain.

A clear example from the past is the life of St. Aurelius Augustine. The son of a pagan and a Christian woman, Augustine was a dissolute fellow in his childhood and youth. While studying far from his homeland, he got involved with bad companies, walked left and right, became an adherent of a heretical sect, and blasphemed God. His mother Monica was horrified by the antics of her beloved child. For more than 10 years, she spent days and nights in tears, begging God to enlighten Augustine and save his perishing soul. The begged son not only corrected himself and escaped hellish torment, but also became a great holy ascetic, a respected bishop and confessor, a world-famous theologian and writer. Monica, considered the patroness of mothers in the Western Church, was also canonized.

Not only a holy ascetic, but also any simple woman with love and humility in her heart can change a lost child for the better. The son of one of the parishioners of the church where my confessor serves, caused mental pain to his mother for many years. He drank heavily, constantly changed lovers, did not believe in God or the devil. After another binge, 32-year-old Andrei became very ill, his heart caught, and he fell, experiencing something like clinical death. He had never believed in “priest’s fairy tales,” but here, willy-nilly, he had to believe that hell exists - he experienced such a vivid and terrible vision. He was burning in fire, unable to move either arm or leg, and terrible infernal monsters grinned around him. He was in unbearable pain and scared, and it seemed that this torture lasted for an eternity. When he finally woke up, he saw that he was lying across the sofa, and his mother was praying in front of the icons, begging God to have mercy on her son. That same day, Andrei asked his mother for forgiveness and went to church for the first confession in his life. He gave up drinking and partying and started a new life.

The everlasting psalter

The indefatigable Psalter is read not only about health, but also about peace. Since ancient times, ordering a commemoration on the Everlasting Psalter has been considered a great alms for a departed soul.

It is also good to order the Indestructible Psalter for yourself; you will feel the support. And one more the most important moment, but far from the least important,
There is eternal remembrance on the Indestructible Psalter. It seems expensive, but the result is more than millions of times more than the money spent. If this is still not possible, then you can order for a shorter period. It's also good to read for yourself.

Guests from the other world

A child is born under the mother’s heart and lives a single life with her for a long time. The invisible mystical connection between a child and mother can last a lifetime. And even death does not always break the bonds of maternal love.

In September 1941, pilot Pavel Ignatievich Ch. was shot down over the Gulf of Finland. He managed to land the burning plane on the water. He tried to open the hatch, but it was jammed. In desperation, he yanked on the main handle with such force that the steel handle bent. The plane began to sink. Pavel realized that it seemed like he was finished. Suddenly, he clearly saw his late mother, Natalya Egorovna, in the ghostly haze in front of him. She cheered him up and reminded him how else he could open the hatch in an emergency. And he managed to get out literally at the last moment, when the plane was almost completely submerged in the water. Spent two hours in cold water trying to swim to shore. When he was already exhausted, he was picked up and saved by a passing patrol ship.

Even more amazing story writer and journalist Vladimir Krupin told in one of his stories. A woman approached his friend, Hieromonk Pavel, on the street and asked him to go to her son and confess him. She gave the address. But the priest got caught up in business and did not fulfill the request. A day later, early in the morning, he again met the same stranger. She literally begged him to go to her son.

A young man opened the door for the priest. It was clear from his appearance that he was drinking heavily and had driven himself to the brink. Father Pavel told him about his mother's request and the purpose of his visit. “Come on, lie, my mother has been dead for five years!” - he got angry. There were photographs hanging on the wall in the apartment, and among them the priest saw a photo of that same woman: “There she is! It was this woman who asked to visit you!” In response, the guy tried to be rude: “So, you came after me from the other world?” But after a long, serious conversation, he wilted and promised to come to the temple the next morning. During confession he was shaking with sobs. He repented that shortly before his mother’s death he kicked her out of the house, and in recent months she lived with friends and was buried by strangers. That evening Father Pavel met his mother again. She was very joyful, thanked the priest, and said that her son had been forgiven, and she had already seen him. The next day, the priest learned that the guy died of a heart attack right on the day of confession. It turns out that the mother’s love and prayers were so strong that she was able to come from the other world and literally make it to last days son's life to save his soul.

A similar story happened in Stavropol in 1954. A woman came to Archpriest Pyotr Sukhonosov with a request to visit and give communion to her terminally ill son, a retired officer, and dictated the address. Father Peter entered an unlocked apartment and found a seriously ill man lying in bed. “I didn’t invite any priests!” - said the patient. The priest told him about his mother’s request, identified the woman from a photo in the album, and was surprised to learn that she died 3 years ago. The officer was persuaded to confess and take communion, and soon after that he died.

Father Peter himself was a very respected and beloved shepherd among the people, and gave all of himself to the people. Since 1960 he served in Ingushetia. In 1999, he was kidnapped and brutally killed by Chechen bandits. Materials are now being collected for the canonization of a new martyr of our time.

If prayer doesn't help

Sometimes the help expected from God never comes, as if He does not hear prayers. But in any case, there is no need to despair. From the point of view of the Christian meaning of life, it is better for some people to die in time and be saved for Eternal Life than to survive, but then destroy their soul. Nothing happens by chance with God, and He takes a person to Himself at the moment of his best spiritual state and greatest readiness for salvation in Eternity. Or when the spiritual decline becomes irreversible.

The poet and Decembrist Kondraty Ryleev was supposed to die in early childhood. But the mother begged for her seriously ill three-year-old son, literally demanding from God his healing. She was not stopped even by the warning of the Mother of God who appeared to her in a subtle dream, who said: “Come to your senses, do not pray for recovery... The Lord Omniscient, out of goodness, out of His mercy, wants to save him and you from future suffering...” The mother was hinted that her son If he recovers, he will end his life on the gallows. But she didn’t want to believe it, and hoped that everything would work out. Kondraty survived, and, alas, what was predicted came true. For active participation in coup d'etat The 30-year-old poet and official Ryleev was sentenced to hang and executed along with four leaders of the uprising. The only consolation for his mother was the fact that before his death he repented and went into Eternity as a humble Christian.

The inability and unwillingness to come to terms with God's Providence can play a very cruel joke on a person. I heard a sad story that happened to a resident of Yekaterinburg, Tatyana V. Her 8-year-old daughter Katya became seriously ill. Prayers did not help, and one morning she found her daughter lying in bed, lifeless and cold. The mother, distraught with grief, came to the temple and became hysterical. She reproached God, the Mother of God and the saints for not hearing her pleas and not helping, and she burst into blasphemy. After this she fainted. In a state of altered consciousness, she saw a dazzling light, and an unearthly voice told her: “Your daughter was pure and immaculate, angels were waiting for her in heaven. But, have it your way. Go, she’s alive!” Having woken up, Tatyana ran home and saw Katya alive. The mother's joy knew no bounds.

But the happiness was short-lived. Every year her daughter’s character deteriorated more and more. Already in adolescence Katya offended her mother in every possible way, left home, and led a wild life. Because of such disappointments, Tatyana became offended by God and stopped going to church. In her youth, my daughter seemed to begin to settle down, and even went to college. But, in the midst of her studies... Katya committed suicide by swallowing pills because of unrequited love. The grief-stricken mother went to a monastery to beg for her unlucky child for the rest of her days.

And it also happens that God, seemingly for years, ignores the pleas of a mother asking him to help her child in trouble, but in the end the story has a good ending. And the reason for “deafness” turns out to be God’s desire to correct a person, for whom premature indulgences can only do a disservice.

A resident of the Moscow region, Alexander S. was from a poor family, but from school he was friends with the “golden youth” - the sons of officials and “new Russians”. Together with them, he became addicted to drugs, became rude and unbearable. One day their company was caught red-handed, having found a decent amount of potion on the guys. The friends were cleared away by high-ranking parents, and Sasha was made a “scapegoat” and sentenced to 4 years in prison. His mother, Olga Ivanovna, really hoped for an amnesty and prayed to God for the release of her son. But instead, for fighting in the “zone” and causing grievous bodily harm, his sentence was doubled. The mother endured such injustice with great difficulty. My hands gave up - what's the point of praying if God doesn't hear it?!

After serving 8 years, the son was released as a completely different person. The “zone” spoils many people, but on the contrary, it corrected him. Sasha became serious and wise, acquired the Orthodox faith. Apparently, it was precisely this long period of time that he needed to humble himself, correct himself and completely get rid of his drug addiction. The Sashins’ friends, as it turned out, are no longer alive. Some died from overdoses and illnesses, others were killed, and two committed suicide. Alexander trained as an icon painter, got married successfully, and has two children growing up. After so many years of ordeal, life finally turned its face towards Olga and her son, and began to resemble a good, happy fairy tale.

Sorokoust is a prayer service that is performed by the Church daily for forty days. Every day during this period, particles are removed from the prosphora.
Elder Schema-Archimandrite Zosima noted that the entire history of mankind is measured in “weeks and forties.” “For forty days Christ appeared to his disciples, remaining on earth until the feast of the Ascension of the Lord. The holy feast is the fortieth day of the Ascension of the Lord. We celebrate Easter on the eve and we will celebrate the great annual holiday on the fortieth day after Easter - the Ascension of the Lord. Forty days of fasting, forty days Easter, everything goes by forties, weeks and forties. And the history of mankind also goes by weeks and forties." Sorokousts are ordered about health, especially about seriously ill people.

“A mother’s prayer will reach you from the bottom of the sea” - this proverb has long become a byword. It was not said for the sake of a catchphrase. This is a truth that is relevant at all times, confirmed by countless examples of the amazing power and effectiveness of the prayers of millions of mothers. Holy maternal love is capable of overcoming any obstacles, achieving the impossible and creating real miracles. A mother's word has special power. There is nothing brighter and more selfless than a mother’s love. From the first day of birth of a child, the mother lives by his breath, his tears and smiles. The child needs the mother. This is the meaning of her life. Love for her baby is as natural to her as the blossoming of gardens in spring. Just as the sun sends out its rays, warming all living things, so a mother’s love warms a child. The mother introduces the child to life. She puts into his mouth the native language, which has absorbed the wealth of the mind, thoughts and feelings of the people. It fills him with spiritual strength and helps him comprehend eternal values.

The relationship between parents and children is modeled after our relationship with God, our Heavenly Parent. Therefore, the Lord gave parents special authority over children: Children, be obedient to your parents in everything, for this is pleasing to the Lord (Col. 3:20). The commandment to honor parents is not only a prescription, non-observance of which is a sin. The Lord connected our longevity on earth with its fulfillment: Honor your father and your mother, so that your days may be long in the land that the Lord your God is giving you (Exodus 20:12). The Holy Apostle Paul says that this is the first commandment with a promise (Eph. 6:2). A sad fate awaits a son or daughter who offends parents and openly disregards their authority and power. The eye that mocks the father and neglects obedience to the mother will be pecked out by the crows of the valley, and the eagle's chicks will be devoured! (Prov. 30:17). The special power of maternal prayer is associated with the power that the Lord God gave to the mother over her children. One of the most edifying examples of great maternal love and prayer for a spiritually perishing son is the prayerful feat of Monica, the mother of Blessed Augustine, who was ten years in captivity of the disastrous false teaching of the Manichaean sect. The son she begged for not only escaped hell, but also became a saint. In his “Confessions,” Blessed Augustine dedicated the most touching words to his mother: “You stretched out Your hand from on high and “drew my soul” from this deep darkness, when my mother, Your faithful servant, mourned me before You more than the mothers of dead children mourn . She saw my death by virtue of her faith and the spirit that she possessed from You - and You heard her, Lord; You heard her and did not despise the tears that streamed the earth in every place where she prayed; You heard her” (Confession. Book III. 11.19). Mother's prayers for children

A mother’s prayer is the strongest and most powerful, which can save her children from illness, misfortune and reckless actions. “A mother’s prayer will reach from the bottom of the sea” is a truth that is relevant at all times, confirmed by countless examples of the amazing power and effectiveness of the prayers of millions of mothers.

She puts into his mouth the native language, which has absorbed the wealth of the mind, thoughts and feelings of the people. It fills him with spiritual strength and helps him comprehend eternal values. Many good believing mothers have had to worry about their children dying in the whirlpool of a vicious, dissolute life. Some had to spend many years in sorrow, humbly waiting and hoping. Their holy tears and prayers were not in vain. When children are ill, you can pray not only to Christ and the Mother of God, but also to numerous Orthodox saints. Among them, Nicholas the Wonderworker, Martyr Tryphon, Great Martyr Panteleimon, Blessed Xenia of Petersburg, Saint Matrona of Moscow and many others are famous for their special help.

The Mother’s strong prayer for her Son will help in any difficult situation: in the army, at work, illness, business, marriage and others.

So that the son can withstand all kinds of adversity, and not encounter trouble and grief on his way, the mother puts howl protection over him, constantly praying to God. It is believed that maternal prayer is the most sincere, reverent and, of course, the most powerful prayer, helping children go through life without lowering their heads. After all, there is nothing dearer to a mother than her child, to whom she is absolutely disinterestedly ready to give all known benefits. She is ready to dissolve in her child without a trace and even, if necessary, give her life for him. Therefore, a mother’s heart freezes with terrible pain if she feels that something is wrong with her son: maybe he is sick? Has the fire of joy and happiness gone out in his eyes? Is his fortitude leaving him? To prevent this from happening, mother always turns to God and All Saints with a request to protect her son from all possible troubles. And it is right.

As all believers know, if there is an urgent desire or need to pray, there is no need to wait special day or look for some unusual place where the mother could make an appeal to God for the benefit of her son. Orthodox maternal prayer will be heard any day, at any time of the day. Some believe that this sacrament requires a “praying” place, that is, you must definitely go to a temple or church.
