Appeal to the Lord

Every person is familiar with the feeling of despondency from the fact that everything in life is stuck and some problems constantly appear. Usually such people constantly feel a heaviness in their hearts that does not allow them to live and work normally. The only way out for such people is to turn to God

But if you want the Lord to help you, be prepared for the fact that you will have to radically change your life. You will have to start thinking less about material things and worry more about spirituality. But this does not mean that you should spend days and nights in temples

Just teach yourself to read the Lord’s Prayer at least twice a day, stop swearing and envying others and, most importantly, learn to help someone who needs your help. If you lead a righteous lifestyle, then the Lord will hear your prayers much faster and send you His Grace

I know for sure, Lord, that You can do anything.

Prayer for help in a difficult life situation

Appeal to God for help

No person thinks about life's difficulties until he himself encounters them. Therefore, most often unpleasant situations unsettle a person for a long time and disrupt his peace of mind. And the longer unresolved problems influence the life of a man or woman, the more difficult it is to get rid of them later.

Sometimes it gets to the point where people stop resisting and simply go with the flow, trying not to notice troubles. But if the mind and body can still somehow isolate themselves from such a situation, then the soul will constantly feel the negativity that is present in a person’s life. Only a sincere appeal to the Almighty can bring relief in this case.

So:

Lord the great God and the Blessed Virgin, I pray to you for help and protection
Remember me, an earthly sinner, and send me forgiveness of my sins.
Deliver me from bad thoughts and wrong actions
I pray you give me a share of happiness and a calm life
Hear my words and speeches and give a sign that you forgive your servant (name)
I pray, Lord, deliver me from temptations, illnesses and earthly sorrows
Give me the love of my family, teach me wisdom and humility
May God give you the strength to survive all troubles and bad weather and walk your earthly path with dignity
In the name of the Father and the Holy Spirit. Amen

The Lord accepts every prayer coming from a mother’s loving heart with joy. After all, there is nothing more sincere than a mother’s prayer for her children.

Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary

On September 21, all Christians celebrate one of the important holidays of the Orthodox Church - the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary. This blessed day is directly connected with the holy parents of the Virgin Mary - Joachim and Anna. For a long time the Lord did not send them children, and they tirelessly prayed to Him for a miracle. As a result, the Lord heeded their prayers and sent them a daughter - the Virgin Mary.

Prayer for conceiving a child to the Blessed Virgin Mary

At the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary, prayer for children is especially strong. You can also pray to the Virgin Mary for the health of your children or for a happy future.

Prayer for children to the Most Holy Theotokos will always be heard and accepted.

If the prayer of the righteous can do much, then all the more powerful is the prayer of the Most Holy Theotokos.

Even during Her earthly life, She found grace from the Lord and turned to Him with intercession for those who asked for Her help and intercession.

The Most Holy Theotokos was awarded special grace and closeness to the Throne of God after Her Dormition. She moved to Heaven not only in order to abide in the radiance and majesty of the Divine Glory of Her Son, but also in order to intercede for us before Him with Her prayers. “Rejoice! I am with you all the days,” She said, appearing to the holy apostles.

The Blessed Virgin, while living on earth, herself experienced the same deprivations, needs, troubles and misfortunes that we also experience. She experienced the sorrow of suffering on the cross and the death of Her Son. She knows our weaknesses, needs and sorrows. Our every sin causes Her suffering, and at the same time, our every misfortune finds Her sympathy. What mother does not take care of her children and is not heartbroken by their misfortunes? What kind of mother leaves them without her help and attention? The Mother of God is always ready to give us timely help.

The Mother of God, like the sun, shines and warms us with the rays of Her love and revives our souls with the grace given to Her from God. By Her Spirit She always abides on earth. When blessed Andrew the Fool, like the Apostle Paul, was caught up in spirit into the heavenly abodes and saw the Lord there, he began to grieve, not seeing the Most Pure Mother of God. But the Angel told him that She had retired into the world to help people.

We are all burdened with sorrows, life's adversities, illnesses and misfortunes, for we all sin. The Word of God says that there is no person who would live on earth and not sin. But God is the highest Love, and out of love for His Mother and for us, He accepts Her prayers. We believe in Her constant intercession and intercession for us sinners before the Merciful and Humane-loving God and in the power of Her prayers. Let us resort to Her as a quiet and kind refuge and diligently call on Her all-holy and all-sung name. And She will not leave us with the unexpected joy of salvation.

Prayers for the intercession of the Virgin Mary

Ideally, this prayer is best said in front of the “Seven Arrow” icon (Softening Evil Hearts), but any other image of the Blessed Virgin Mary will do.

“Soften our evil hearts, Mother of God,
and extinguish the misfortunes of those who hate us
and resolve all the tightness of our soul.
Looking at Your holy image,
We are touched by your suffering and mercy for us
and we kiss your wounds,
We are horrified by our arrows, tormenting You.
Do not let us, Mother of the Compassionate,
in our hardness of heart and from the hardness of our neighbors we will perish.
You will truly soften evil hearts.”

Prayers to the Blessed Virgin Mary

“We resort to your mercy, Virgin Mary:
Do not despise our prayers in sorrow, but deliver us from troubles,
The One Pure and Blessed One.
Most Holy Theotokos, Save us!”

“O long-suffering Mother of God, Higher than all the daughters of the earth,
by His purity and by the multitude of sufferings,
You brought them to the lands
accept our painful sighs
and keep us under the shelter of Your mercy.
Do You know no other refuge and warm intercession?
but, as one who has boldness towards the One who was born of You,
help and save us with your prayers,
may we reach the Kingdom of Heaven without stumbling,
where, with all the saints, we will sing praises in the Trinity to the one God, now and ever, and unto ages of ages. Amen".

“O Most Holy and Most Blessed Lady Theotokos,
accept these heartfelt prayers,
ascending with great hope and faith in Your immeasurable mercy,

from all evil and give me Your help (indicate request).
O zealous intercessor, deliver me through these prayers,
lifting up to You with all my heart and soul,
from all witchcraft harm, temptations of the world,
from sinful lusts, from the wiles of the devil
and from attacks by enemies visible and invisible..
And cover with Your Honest Prayer Veil from all evil. Amen"

« O Most Holy Lady Theotokos, Queen of Heaven,
save and have mercy on us, Your sinful servants (name),
from vain slander and from all sorts of troubles, misfortunes and sudden deaths,
have mercy in the daytime hours, morning and evening,
and protect us at all times - standing, sitting,
on every path that walks, in the hours of the night that sleeps,
supply, protect and cover, protect.
To the Lady Theotokos, from all enemies visible and invisible,
from every evil situation,
in every place and at every time, be to us the Mother of God, an insurmountable wall,
and strong intercession always,
and now, and ever, and unto ages of ages. Amen".

Eat short prayer to the Most Holy Theotokos, which we should say as often as possible.

“Virgin Mother of God, Rejoice, O Blessed Mary, the Lord is with You;
Blessed are You among women and blessed is the fruit of Your womb,
for you gave birth to the Savior of our souls"

These words are taken from the greeting of the Archangel Gabriel when he announced to the Blessed Virgin Mary the birth from Her according to the flesh of the Son of God (Luke 1:28).
