A saint named Luke of Crimea lived quite recently. He was born at the end of the century before last in the city of Kerch. Even before God took him to heaven, he was an excellent healer, and a year after the end of World War II he was given the title of Archbishop.

During his life, Luke saw a lot of suffering. Already as an 11-year-old boy, he was in terrible exile and all the time he asked people only that under no circumstances should they deviate from the faith and not betray the Almighty.

“O all-blessed confessor, our holy saint Luke, great servant of Christ! With tenderness, we bow the knee of our hearts, and falling to the race of your honest and multi-healing relics, like the children of our father, we pray to you with all diligence: hear us sinners and bring our prayer to the merciful and philanthropic God, to whom you now stand in the joy of the saints and with the faces of an angel. We believe that you love us with the same love with which you loved all your neighbors while you were on earth.

Ask Christ our God: may he establish the spirit of right faith and piety in his holy Orthodox Church, may he give to her shepherds holy zeal and care for the salvation of the people entrusted to them: to observe the right of believers, to strengthen the weak and infirm in the faith, to instruct the ignorant, to reprove the contrary. Give us all a gift that is useful to everyone, and everything that is useful for temporary life and eternal salvation. Strengthening our cities, fruitful lands, deliverance from famine and destruction. Comfort for those who are grieving, healing for those who are ill, return to the path of truth for those who have lost their way, blessing from a parent, upbringing and teaching to a child in the Passion of the Lord, help and intercession for the orphaned and needy. Grant us all your archpastoral and holy blessing, so that through you we will get rid of the wiles of the evil one and avoid all enmity and disorder, heresies and schisms.

Grant us a godly way to cross the path of temporary life, guide us on the path leading to the villages of the righteous, deliver us from airy ordeals and pray to the omnipotent God for us: yes in eternal life with you we unceasingly glorify the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, and to Him belongs all glory, honor and power forever and ever. Amen!".

Being a doctor, Luke had no doubt that prayer addressed to God for the health of oneself and loved ones heals not only spiritually. He could explain miraculous action prayers even with scientific point vision.

Prayer for health and well-being, according to Luke, allows you to calm your thoughts and get rid of panic. And all this certainly contributes to a quick recovery.

The prayer to Spyridon of Trimifuntsky for health has a strong healing effect.

Spyridon of Trimifuntsky is a powerful healer. He did not study anywhere and did not complete any medical educational institutions. However, he knew how to heal people with just one prayer addressed to God.

Those who came to him saw that he was not a sorcerer or a charlatan. God's grace helped eliminate illnesses.

Spiridon did not demand anything from people for his healing. His work as a shepherd brought him money.

“O blessed Saint Spyridon! Beg the mercy of God, the Lover of Mankind, not to judge us for our iniquities, but to deal with us according to His mercy. Ask us, God's servants (names), from Christ and God for our peaceful, serene life, mental and physical health. Deliver us from all spiritual and physical troubles, from all yearnings and the devil’s slander.

Remember us at the throne of the Almighty and beg the Lord to grant us forgiveness for many of our sins, grant us a comfortable and peaceful life, and grant us a shameless and peaceful death and eternal bliss in the future, so that we may continually send glory and thanksgiving to the Father and the Son and the Spirit Holy, now and ever, and unto ages of ages.
Amen!".

The relics of the saint are now located on the island of Corfu. Many Christians come here who want to be healed. However, you can make a request to the Saint from your own home, no matter how far from Greece it may be. Wherever the prayer to Spyridon for health is said, the Saint will hear everyone.

Ksenia of Petersburg is no less popular among believers than Matrona of Moscow.

People know firsthand that in terms of the number of people converted and miracles performed, Saint Xenia of Petersburg cannot be compared with anyone.

When Ksenia was widowed, she gave all her property to the church. They say that she even admitted that she was dead. At the same time, she did not lose her joy of life and began to help all those suffering.

She had the gift of foresight. Many times she gave the last of what she had to those in need. Despite many difficulties, Ksenia did not stray from her chosen path.

“Oh, simple in your way of life, homeless on earth, but heir to the abodes of the Heavenly Father, blessed wanderer Xenia! Just as we previously fell to your tombstone in illness and sorrow and were filled with consolations, now we (names), overwhelmed by pernicious circumstances, resort to you and ask with hope: pray, O good heavenly woman, that our steps may be corrected, according to the word of the Lord, to the doing of His commandments, and may the godless atheism that has captivated your city and your country, plunging us, many sinners, into mortal hatred of our brothers, proud self-indignation and blasphemous despair, be abolished. ABOUT, Most Beatitude of Christ for the sake of, having put to shame the vanity of this age, ask the Creator and Giver of all blessings to grant us humility, meekness and love in the treasure of our hearts, faith in strengthening prayer, hope in repentance, strength in a difficult life, merciful healing of our soul and body, chastity in marriage and concern for our neighbors and our sincere ones, renewal of our entire life in the purifying bath of repentance, as we praise your memory with all praise, let us glorify in you the miracle worker, the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, the Trinity Consubstantial and Indivisible forever and ever. Amen!".

The icon of Xenia can often be seen in Christian homes. There are always a lot of people at her grave in St. Petersburg. Orthodox people They leave notes here where they talk in detail about their problems. Many admit that Blessed Xenia’s prayer for health helped them cope with a serious illness.

Since diseases are the main problem of people, the Almighty has given us many healers who can miraculously cure ailments that seem incurable.

People often read prayers for the health of their children, loved ones, and relatives in order to heal any ailments. This or that prayer for the health of relatives is often heard in churches. They are read in their homes and simply mentally spoken to themselves.

Prayers for health are good to use for healing after surgery. They can be used as a petition for the good health of newborns: sons, grandchildren and their parents.

You can order them at any time except during fasting. To do this, you need to submit a piece of paper with the names of whom you should pray for. You can also submit a simple note for a regular prayer for health.

Everything about religion and faith - “a prayer for the health of one or many” with a detailed description and photographs.

From time immemorial people have been crying out to the Lord God for help. The Lord God sent His son Jesus Christ to believers on earth. Jesus Christ taught people and said: “Come to me, you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” He taught us to pray. He told people parables, teaching us to live God-fearing lives. From Holy Scripture we know that God will not abandon a single prayer that is said sincerely, with an open soul. Through the Bible, the Lord conveyed to us the information that we can offer prayers to him for health, and they will all be heard.

The Lord God heals. It happens that doctors refuse to treat their patients, citing the fact that the person is terminally ill, but if you do not lose faith and believe in the One Living God, then you can beg for healing from him, and he will heal the sick person.

As we know, there are so-called “grandmothers”, traditional healers, healers, healers. They all have power given to them by God. They heal through prayer. Many people don't believe in traditional healers and consider all this to be prejudice. But, oddly enough, traditional healers and healers exist, and they have power. There is a lot of conflicting talk on this topic, some believe, others do not believe, but if you look at this issue from the point of view of science, a completely clear picture opens up. Scientists relatively recently discovered the fact that water has memory (water memory theory), but we won’t go into details. So, the fact that water has memory has already been proven, as well as the fact that the word has some influence on everything that happens.

The degree of influence of a word on ongoing events.

Scientists conducted experiments with the word, and discovered the fact that the word affects water. If you observe a water molecule through a microscope at the moment of freezing, you will notice that, hearing good words, the water molecule, freezing, turns into a snowflake of the correct shape, and hearing evil words, the molecule, on the contrary, becomes an ugly snowflake, with disfigured edges and rays . This experience proves the fact that water hears. Many more centuries will pass before humanity comprehensively studies the “memory of water,” but we already know something today. How does it work for traditional healers and healers who heal with prayer. The traditional healer always uses water in healing rituals. He whispers some words into the water - prayers. What happens next, how and why is a person healed by drinking this water? How does this work? Water, hearing the words of the healer, remembers them. Then the water evaporates - “the water cycle in nature.” Next, a molecule with a certain memory with clouds moves across the sky wherever the wind blows. Somewhere it will certainly fall to the ground in the form of precipitation. Streams flow into rivers, rivers flow into seas and underground reservoirs, thus a molecule with some kind of memory one day ends up in a reservoir from which we drink water. Thus, a person about whom the water remembers something will one day drink the water that contains a molecule with a memory of him. It is at that moment in time that a person will be healed. This is how prayer for health works.

“O Lord Almighty, Holy King, punish and do not kill, strengthen those who fall, raise up the overthrown, correcting the bodily afflictions of people and, we pray to You, our God, visit your weak servant (name), with your mercy, forgive him every sin, voluntary and involuntary. Hey, Lord, send down Your healing power from heaven, touch the body, extinguish the fire, tame passion and all lurking weaknesses, be the doctor of Your servant (name), raise him from the sick bed, and from the bed of bitterness, whole and all-perfect, grant him to Your Church pleasing and doing Your will, for it is Yours to have mercy and save us, our God, and we send glory to You.

To her, Lord, have mercy on Thy creation in Christ Jesus our Lord, with Him art thou blessed, and with Thy Most Holy, and Good, and Life-giving Spirit, now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen".

The most powerful and wonderful prayer for the life and health of a sick person

The Lord’s great gift to all of us is life. In contrast to this to the highest Gift Heaven, the devil sends a wide variety of trials on people in order to take more lives - epidemics, wars, various temptations and illnesses. Their goal is to collect a terrible harvest of human deaths, taking human souls to the Underworld. Prayer for health is able to resist the devil’s machinations, protecting the soul and body of a Christian with the power of the Holy Spirit. The healing akathist will overthrow any demonic intrigues.

Indispensable conditions for the struggle for the health of a Christian

The Lord is merciful - by reading the akathist to His glory, everyone who suffers will be able to ask for healing for themselves and their loved ones. There is no reason why the Almighty would not want to help recover from illness, except for one thing - there must be a place for God in the heart of the person asking. An akathist or prayer for the health of a sick person will grant recovery in the case when faith is a sincere inner essence, and not a hypocritical wrapper. Prayer does not help one who has not accepted the Almighty Patron in his heart.

• Baptism is the act of receiving the Holy Spirit into your soul. To ensure that prayers for health are not in vain, the patient must be baptized. It happens that parents doubt whether to baptize their child, but sometimes the very fact of baptism in the Holy Spirit contributes to healing. Why do Orthodox Christians, unlike Protestants, usually baptize children in early age- a mother’s prayer for the health of her child protects better than any medicine.
• When reading prayers for health, mention the sick person by the name with which he was baptized. IN modern world It has become very common for the worldly name to be different from what is mentioned in the calendar. You can beg the Lord to grant healing only by designating the sufferer by the name under which he came to God.
• Confession removes sinful filth and the severity of sorrows from the soul of the sick person, allowing him to return to health by the will of the Lord. For many, illness is given as a test for their sins. Often, having repented, a person immediately takes the path of recovery. This point does not apply to children; their immaculate souls have not yet known sin, therefore, for a child, confession is not a necessity to obtain healing.
• Communion has the greatest power - it allows the Holy Spirit inside, which helps in the fight against any disease. The Almighty will return the health of the child to every mother if she comes to communion herself and gives communion to her child, for the Lord will enter every cell with His power and grant healing. For any Orthodox person, Communion, like a filter, cleanses the body of illness. For without the power of the Holy Spirit over the human body there is no healing in prayer. Where there is no place for the Lord, there is no desire to accept His power.

The fulfillment of the Lord's Sacraments is a guarantee that the way for a miracle will be open in your heart. When praying for healing, you need to give the creator the opportunity to help you, and your sincere faith will be the key to this. The most powerful akathist and prayer are unable to help without sincere surrender of oneself to God.

Which saint should we pray for the health of the infirm?

Any caring Christian can show his responsiveness and cry out in prayer to the Lord and His Holy Saints in a request to restore health to a sick loved one. Any mother can take care of her children with just one appeal for the mercy of God and the protection of the Mother of God.

For only by the will of the Creator, prayer for the health of a sick person is capable of destroying all devilish evil and illness.

• Be sure to read an akathist to the Mother of God in the morning and evening, where they ask to heal the child. The mother will have to show perseverance and diligence, showing concern for her blood.
• An all-night vigil service is also welcomed, where people fervently pray for the child’s health. Usually like this long procedure practiced before important or significant events in the treatment of children - operations, procedures, long-distance vital travel for treatment.

There are no other imams of help, no other imams of hope, except You, Most Pure Virgin: You are the all-powerful Helper and Intercessor of Christians. Deliver all those who pray to You with faith from the falls of sin, from the slander of evil people, from all temptations, sorrows, troubles and from vain death.

We hurt from head to toe: our minds hurt with lack of understanding, unreasonableness and madness; Our will hurts, turning away from holy pursuits and striving for deeds that are harmful and ungodly; Our memory hurts, forgetting our sins and containing within itself the sins and insults of our neighbors; Our imagination hurts, unable and unwilling to vividly imagine to us our death, the eternal torment of sinners, the blessings of the Kingdom of Heaven, God's wrath, Christ's suffering on the cross, His crucifixion - heal us, O Saint Panteleimon! Everything in us hurts. Our entire soul, with all its strengths and abilities, is also weak. Our whole body with all its members is also weak.
