Children are a continuation of their parents, so it is not surprising that they are protected from adversity and they are trying to help them in everything. A mother's love for her child is selfless and pure, and care for a child begins even before his birth.

Whom to pray for children?

Many modern parents read prayers only in difficult times, when the child is sick or has some problems. However, one should turn to the saints with a prayer for children every day. Morning prayer will help the child in all matters and protect him from adversity during the day, and evening prayer will drive away bad dreams.

Most often, maternal prayer for children is addressed to the Mother of God, because she is the mother of Jesus Christ, who endured many hardships for the sake of her child. But there are other saints that mother and father can turn to with daily prayer for children:

  1. Nicholas the Wonderworker will support the child on a journey or a long journey, it may even be military service.
  2. They pray to the Matrona of Moscow for health and healing. Babies often suffer from seizures, and older children can catch a cold.
  3. George the Victorious will protect the boy from any adversity.
  4. Ksenia of Petersburg pray for children with physical and mental illnesses and disabilities.
  5. You should also pray to the saint in whose honor the child was baptized, because he protects him throughout his life.

Jesus Christ will hear any prayer and help in all troubles, that's why parents read to him Orthodox prayers about children. You can turn to the Lord both in the temple and at home, but it is important to observe the sacrament of prayer.

A mother's sigh for her children

God! To the Creator of all creatures, applying mercy to mercy, You have made me worthy to be the mother of a family; Your goodness has given me children, and I dare to say: they are Your children! Because You gave them life, revived them with an immortal soul, revived them by baptism for life in accordance with Your will, adopted them and received them into the bosom of Your Church, Lord! Keep them in a blessed state until the end of life; make them worthy to be partakers of the mysteries of your covenant; sanctify with your truth; may your holy name be sanctified in them and through them! Send me your grace-filled help in their upbringing for the glory of your name and the good of your neighbor! Grant me methods, patience and strength for this purpose! Teach me to plant in their hearts the root of true wisdom - your fear! Illuminate them with the light of Your Wisdom that governs the universe! May they love you with all their soul and mind; may they cling to Thee with all their hearts and tremble at Thy words all their lives! Give me reason to convince them that true life consists in keeping your commandments; that labor, strengthened by piety, delivers serene contentment in this life and inexpressible bliss in eternity. Reveal to them the understanding of Your Law! Yes, until the end of their days they act in the feeling of Your omnipresence! Instill in their hearts horror and disgust from all iniquity; let them be blameless in your ways; May they always remember that You, Omnipotent God, are a zealot for the law and Your righteousness! Keep them in chastity and reverence for Your name! Let them not discredit Your Church with their behavior, but let them live according to its precepts! Inspire them with a desire for useful teaching and make them capable of every good deed! May they acquire a true understanding of those subjects whose information is necessary in their state; let them be enlightened with knowledge that is beneficial for mankind. God! Wise me to imprint with indelible features in the mind and heart of my children the fear of fellowship with those who do not know Your fear, inspire them with every possible distance from any union with the lawless. Let them not heed rotten conversations; Let them not listen to frivolous people; let them not be led astray from thy way by bad examples; May they not be offended by the fact that sometimes the way of the wicked is successful in this world!

Heavenly Father! Grant me grace in every way to beware of giving my children a temptation by my actions, but, constantly keeping in mind their behavior, distract them from delusions, correct their errors, curb their stubbornness and obstinacy, refrain from striving for vanity and frivolity; let them not be carried away by foolish thoughts, let them not follow their hearts, let them not become proud in their thoughts, let them not forget you and your law. May the iniquity of their mind and health not destroy them, may the sins of their spiritual and bodily forces not relax. Righteous Judge, who punishes children for the sins of their parents up to the third and fourth kind, turn away such punishment from my children, do not punish them for my sins; but sprinkle them with the dew of Thy grace, may they prosper in virtue and holiness, may they grow in Thy favor and in the love of pious people.

Father of bounty and all mercy! As a parent, I would wish my children every abundance of earthly blessings, I would wish them blessings from the dew of heaven and from the fat of the earth, but may Thy holy will be with them! Arrange their fate according to Your good pleasure, do not deprive them of their daily bread in life, send them everything they need in time to gain a blessed eternity, be merciful to them when they sin before You, do not impute to them the sins of youth and ignorance of them, bring their hearts to contrition when they resist the guidance of thy goodness; punish them and have mercy, directing them to the path pleasing to You, but do not reject them from Your face! Accept with favor their prayers, grant them success in every good deed; turn not thy face away from them in the days of their affliction, lest their temptations be overtaken above their strength. Overshadow them with Your mercy, may Your Angel walk with them and save them from every misfortune and evil path, All-good God! Make me a mother rejoicing over her children, may they be my joy in the days of my life and my support in my old age. Deign me, with hope in Your mercy, to stand with them at Your Last Judgment and with unworthy boldness to say: Here I am and my children whom You have given me, Lord! Yes, together with them glorifying Thy inexpressible goodness and eternal love, I exalt Thy Most Holy Name, Father, Son and Holy Soul, forever and ever. Amen.

I speak the body is white,
I fix it stronger than steel and damask steel,
Stronger than any hardened way.
I knit my invisible strand,
So that no one is a servant of God (name)
Couldn't take:
Not a nimble deed,
Not a word of conspiracy
Not through the oven
Not through a candle
Not through holy water.
The holy apostles are with me
The amulet is read
My child is shielded from enemies:
Nikita the Stylite,
Gabriel the Archangel
Michael the Archangel
Georgy the Brave,
John the Baptist and Merciful Savior.

I will rise, be blessed
I'll go out and cross myself.
Give you, Mother of the Blessed Virgin Mary,
Keys, locks, security sheets
For my kids
By His servants (names).
Locks don't have blood, keys don't have blood.
So would my kids
Servants of God (names),
Nothing hurt, nothing hurt,
The enemies would not have found them, they would not have seen them,
By baptized names, they did not call to themselves.
They did not get weapons against them,
Ropes against them would not be twisted.
The fire would not burn them, the wind would not blow,
The water did not drown, the snake did not bite,
People wouldn't judge them
The tsar-sovereign did not reproach.
And be you, all words, word by word,
And become you, all things, in business.
What did I say that I didn't say
All the Mother of God will tell
All words will be fulfilled.
Key, lock, tongue.
Amen.

I entrust them to Your Motherly care, as You are the Divine Protection of Your servants. Mother of God, introduce me into the image of Your Heavenly Motherhood.

For the sake of my Son Christ,
Dear God,

From violence and evil.
Amen. Amen.
Amen.

How to put a charm on your son

Do not let me, servant of God (name),
To my evil adversaries,

Mountain of stone.

Now and forever and forever and ever.
Amen.

Blessing the children on the road

Seeing the children on the road, read the following amulet on them:


In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
I ask the grieving Mother of God
Bless my dear child.
Mother, protect my dear child
With its blue brocade,
With his golden robe.
Any way, any way
Let the servant of God (name) pass:
In the dark dense forest,
In the field, quicksand swamp,
In the deep sea, in the river,
Don't let him perish in the water
On fire, on high steeps,
In the yellow sands loose.

I accompany you on the big road.

In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
Now and forever and forever and ever.
Amen.

In a good hour, yes in holiness.
In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
Now and forever and forever and ever.

Maternal plot in separation from the child

A mother whose child has left home for a long time can read such a protective plot on him:


My soul burst into tears
From the four corners of the house,
Why by the blood of my dear
I was tormented by separation
I saw clear eyes
Waiting for your child.
I did not dare to destroy myself.
I will start talking
I will call on Christ as my helper:
“Give me, Christ, a wedding candle,
Marriage cup, holy handkerchief.
From a zagorny student
I will draw holy water
In the middle of the dense forest
I will outline myself with a ghostly trait.
I speak my beloved child
Over the wedding cup
Before the wedding candle
I wash my child's clean face,
I wipe his sugary lips with a holy handkerchief,
Clear eyes, a thoughtful forehead, red cheeks,
Fair-haired curls, greyhound gait.
Be you, my dear child,
Brighter than the bright sun
Sweeter than a spring day
purer than spring water,
Whiter than hot wax
Stronger than the stone of combustible alatyr.
I take away from you with mother's blood
Terrible trait
I drive away the violent whirlwind,
someone else's brownie,
I protect from the witch of Kyiv,
From her evil sister of Murom,
From the evil witch
I wave away the prophetic raven,
From the crowing crow,
I shield from the heretic,
From the wise warlock,
From the conspiracy wizard,
From a spring sorcerer, from a blind healer.
And be you, my child,
By my word strong in the night and midnight,
At one and half an hour, on the way and the path,
In a dream and in reality, sheltered from the power of the enemy,
From unclean spirits, from any weapon,
From grief, from misfortune, from death in vain,
Saved on the water from drowning,
Sheltered in fire from burning.
And your hour of death will come,
And remember, my child,
About our affectionate love,
About our bread and salt
Turn back to your glorious homeland,
Hit her with the forehead of the seven times,
Say goodbye to relatives and blood,
Get on the wet ground
And fall asleep sweet, sound sleep.
And be, my word,
Stronger than water, higher than the mountain,
Heavier than gold, stronger than damask stone,
Stronger than alatyr stone,
Mighty hero.
And who wants my child
To fool and mutilate,
To hide behind the mountains of Azarat,
In the abyss of hell
In seething resin, in scorching heat.
And his charms will not be his charms,
Morocheny him not in the mud,
Izurecheniya is not in his izurocheniya.
I give to you, my child,
All the power I have.
Amen.

So that no one will hit your child

When the child leaves the house, say after him:


Save, Lord, Thy servant (name)
From seventy-seven enemies
From insults and fists,
So that he does not fall, does not hurt himself,
Not beaten, not scratched, not broken.
Guardian angel, go everywhere with him
And in good health bring me home.
In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
Now and forever and forever and ever.
Amen.

Sending a child to kindergarten or to school
Prayer for success in science to the holy apostle and evangelist John the Theologian

Oh, the great apostle, the loud-voiced evangelist, the most elegant theologian, the occult expert of incomprehensible revelations, the virgin and beloved confidante of Christ John, receive us sinners (names) who come running under your strong intercession and patronage with your usual mercy! Ask the All-Generous Lover of Christ and our God, even before your eyes you poured out Your most precious blood for us, His indecent servants, may He not remember our iniquities, but may He have mercy on us, and may He do with us by His mercy; may he grant us health of soul and body, all prosperity and abundance, teaching us to turn all of it into the glory of Him, the Creator, Savior and our God. At the end of our temporary life, may we, holy apostle, escape the merciless tortures awaiting us in the air ordeals, but may we reach, under your guidance and patronage, the Mountainous Jerusalem, whose glory in revelation you have seen, and now you enjoy these joys promised to the elect God's. Oh, great John, save all the cities and countries of Christianity, all this, this temple, dedicated to your holy name, serving and praying in it, from famine, destruction, cowardly and flood, fire, sword, invasion of foreigners and internecine warfare, deliver from all troubles and misfortunes, and with your prayers, turn away the righteous wrath of God from us, and ask us for His mercy. Oh, great and incomprehensible God, Alfo and Omego, source and object of our faith! Behold, we offer you Saint John, whom you have made worthy to know you, the inscrutable God, in an inexpressible revelation. Accept his intercession for us, grant us the fulfillment of our petitions, to Your glory: and above all, complete us with spiritual perfection, to the enjoyment of an endless life in Your heavenly abodes. Oh, Heavenly Father, who created the whole Lord, the Soul of Spirits, the Almighty King! Touch with your finger our hearts, and they, melted like wax, will be shed before you, and the mortal spiritual creature will be created, in honor and glory of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Prayer to the Most Holy Theotokos in front of Her icon, called "Education"

Prayer for Children Who Have Difficulty Teaching

Lord Jesus Christ, our God, truly dwelling in the hearts of the twelve apostles and by the power of the grace of the All-Holy Spirit descended in the form of fiery tongues, opening their mouths, so that they began to speak in other dialects,Himself, Lord Jesus Christ, our God, send down that Holy Spirit on this lad (this girl) (name), and plant in his (her) heart the Holy Scripture, which Your pure hand inscribed on the tablets of the legislator Moses,now and forever and forever and ever. Amen.

So that everything is fine with the child in the nursery and kindergarten

This conspiracy is read over the water and the child is washed with it before leaving the house. The spoken words are:


I speak my child
From vain tears, from terrible troubles,
From a bruise and from pain, and from a vain illness.
I close with my word
I save my business.
In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
Amen.

Conspiracy to ardent teaching

So that your son does not have problems at school, read a special conspiracy over a bright fire: it is best to pronounce the conspiracy words in the oven, but you can also on the fire. The conspiracy sounds like this:


How are you, flame?
You burn, you burn
You sway from my breath
So it would burn and rage for teaching
Servant of God (name).
Amen.

It is also good to pray to the three holy youths: Ananias, Azarias and Misail, who became famous for their wisdom, as well as to the martyr Neophyte and Saint Sergius of Radonezh.

A conspiracy to reveal talents and for solid knowledge

They read on the full moon, having previously withstood a three-day bloodless fast. Clothing should be perfectly clean, and if possible new. The ritual should not be performed in front of anyone, that is, in the presence of people, animals and birds. Until the end of the spell, you cannot open the door and answer calls. Conspiracy words:


Oh, my Lord, Most Good and Eternal,
Patiently suffered for us on the Cross.
You who atoned for our sin
With your precious blood
Support me and help me
Enlighten my eyes with the light of truth.
Spill generously
On my mind, your wisdom.
Savior of the world
You gave King Solomon
Wisdom and longevity
Praise Him throughout the ages,
Open the gate for me
Your endless mercy
And nourish me with the milk of Your bounties,
For the Father is the world, the Son is the life,
The Holy Spirit is our salvation.
In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
Now, forever, forever and ever.
Amen.

For a child to be smart and hardworking

On December 14, in Rus', it was customary to give the teaching of the youths, whom the parents decided to "smart", that is, teach them to read and write. It is not surprising that over time, the prophet Naum received the nickname of the Literate among the people, and it is customary to turn to him with a prayer for the education of children on this very day: parents ask Saint Naum to give their children more intelligence and diligence and help in learning. Here is one of the conspiracies for industriousness and intelligence, addressed to St. Naum.


In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
Holy Father Naum,
Guide my child to mind
Give him a blessing for ardent teaching,
Strengthen his memory, awaken efforts,
Take his hand, drive away laziness and boredom.
Let this boy be
Quickly to the mind, disputes in learning.
Now and forever and forever and ever.
Amen.

A conspiracy for children on comprehension and mind

With your thumb and little finger, remove three grains of salt from the salt shaker. To do this, of course, is not easy, but it is quite possible. Then throw these grains into the water. From the ashes, select three coals and throw them into the same water. With the handle of a knife, draw a cross on the surface of the water and say:


Thoughts are quick, deeds are quick,
Strong memory, tricks,
Wisdom and great wisdom,
Get into the water
Mix and pass on to my child.
As King Solomon was quick-witted and clever,
So my child would shine with Mind-mind,
Never forgot anything.
In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
Now and forever and forever and ever.
Amen.

For a child to be industrious

All parents want their children to grow up hardworking. Read the following plot over your child, and you will see how he will noticeably change for the better.


Command, Lord, to His servant (name)
Work hard and don't be lazy
How true people work
Monks of the holy monastery.
In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
Amen.

So that the child is not offended at school

Before taking the child to the first grade, I advise all mothers to read on the eve of September 1 over the child a protective conspiracy that will protect him from offenders. The words of the conspiracy are:


Stands the Apostolic Church,
A small icon hangs in it,
It has great holy power.
I would ask for that icon:
How people do not take fire with their hands,
So let the servant of God (name)
They do not scold and do not beat even today,
Not tomorrow, not the day after tomorrow
Neither Monday nor Tuesday
Neither Wednesday nor Thursday
Neither Friday nor Saturday
Neither in the morning nor in the afternoon,
Not one, not two, not three
And not from any number.
God's icon has been given power.
Save, holy power,
Servant of God (name).
Amen.

If your child comes home from school beaten up

In this case, you should rewrite the words of the protective conspiracy on a piece of paper and ask the child to always carry it with you and not show it to anyone. The spoken words are:


My baby's angel
bright, kind,
I release my child on you.
Protect him, protect him
From the eyes of enemies, from heavy fists,
From malicious laughter
Send him your success.
In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
Amen.

So that teachers do not scold

Teach your child that before entering the school he should say:


The truth is
What is my strength beyond this threshold.

Another conspiracy that protects against strict teachers

Looking at the surface of the water, they read a special plot, and then, before going to school, they wash themselves with charmed water. The conspiracy is as follows:


I look at myself
I am above the water and I am in the water.
Everywhere I am the first, and at school too.

So that teachers do not scold and find fault

Read the plot over milk and ask the child to wash his face with it for three evenings in a row. The spoken words are as follows:


Likhodey, Chaldeans, teachers, scolds
And detractors, scolders, strangers and parents,
Both a bright person and a dark one,
And every teacher and verbal tormentor,
Do not torment, do not bother and do not scold
Servant of God (name).
Amen.

Prayer for the development of the mind in children and the enlightenment of their minds for teaching

With this prayer, they turn to the holy Equal-to-the-Apostles Cyril and Methodius, the first teachers of Slovenia. It is no coincidence that the prayer for giving children the mind and desire to learn is directed precisely to these saints. After all, Saints Cyril and Methodius compiled the Slavonic alphabet and translated the Gospel, the Apostle, the Psalter and many other liturgical books into Slavonic.

About glorifying the language of Slovenian teachers and enlighteners, Saints Equal-to-the-Apostles Methodius and Cyril. To you, as a child to the father, by the light of your teachings and writings of enlightenment and in the faith of Christ, we now diligently resort and pray in contrition of our hearts. If only your covenant, like a disobedient child, not observing and pleasing God, like you clean, careless, and from like-mindedness and love, more like Slovenian, like brothers in faith and according to the flesh, you bequeath good, otpa-dohom, both, like ancient times in your life you do not turn away the ungrateful and unworthy of vanity, but reward the good for evil, so now do not turn away your prayers for sinful and unworthy children, but, as if you have great boldness to the Lord, diligently pray to Him, that he will guide and turn us on the path of salvation, strife and strife, among the brethren of the same faith arising, he will die, falling back into oneness of mind, he will lead us all by unity of spirit and love in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church will unite. Vemy bo, vemy, how much can the prayer of the righteous to the mercy of the Lord, if it is brought about sinful people. Do not leave us, your dull and unworthy children, their sin for the sake of your flock, gathered by you, divided by enmity and temptations from infidels seduced, diminished, but her verbal sheep are scattered, from mental wolves admire, give us jealousy with your prayers for Orthodoxy, yes, let us warm it up, we will preserve the fatherly traditions in good faith, we will faithfully observe the charters and customs of the church, we will run away from all false teachings and so, prospering in God-pleasing life on earth, we will be worthy of the life of paradise in heaven, and there, together with you, the Lord of all, in the Trinity of the One God, glorify forever and ever. Amen.

Prayer before the start of training

Lord our God and our Creator, in His image we, the people, who adorned, Thy chosen ones, taught Thy Law, so that those who listen to him marvel, revealed the secrets of wisdom to children, gave Solomon and all who seek it, open the hearts, minds and mouths of Thy servants (names) in order to comprehend the power of Thy Law and to successfully learn the useful doctrine taught by it for the glory of Thy Most Holy Name, for the benefit and organization of Thy holy Church and the understanding of Thy good and perfect will. Deliver them from all the wiles of the enemy, keep them in the faith of Christ and purity throughout their life, may they be strong in mind and in the fulfillment of Your commandments and, so taught, glorify Your Most Holy Name and be heirs of Your Kingdom, for You, God, are strong in mercy and good in strength, and all glory, honor and worship befits you, to the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, always, now and forever and forever and ever. Amen.

Prayer before teaching

Good Lord, send down to us the grace of Your Holy Spirit, which bestows and strengthens our spiritual strength, so that, attentively taught to us, we may grow up to You, our Creator, to the glory, our parent for consolation, the Church and the fatherland for the benefit.

Prayer after teaching

We thank Thee, the Creator, as if Thou hast vouchsafed us Thy grace, in a hedgehog heed to teaching. Bless our bosses, parents and teachers who lead us to the knowledge of the good, and give us strength and strength to continue this teaching.

Conspiracy on the ability to learn

To make it easier for a child to learn and remember educational material, read the following conspiracy on it:


Constellations of the Heaven of the Lord
They don't leave their place
Without the knowledge of the Almighty.
So is the mind of a servant of God (name)
Will not leave common sense
And may the strength of his mind be replenished.
In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
Amen.

Conspiracy on the industriousness of a child

If the child is lazy and the parents have already lost all hope of correcting this deficiency, you should get (borrow from someone) something from the harness of the old horse: a stirrup, a saddle, etc. (you can also take a whip). Read a special plot over the thing and bring it into the house. Without explaining anything to the child, give him the charmed thing so that he can tinker with it a little. The spoken words are as follows:


How the horse knew labor
So are you, servant of God (name),
Know work and love it.
Amen.

A conspiracy for talent and the power of knowledge

This conspiracy is read after the person they want to speak.


Intercede, Lady Mother of God,
Before His Son
And send the servant of God (name)
Wisdom of Sofia
As He marked King Solomon with His mercy.
In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
Amen.

Conspiracy from laziness

Often schoolchildren are not distinguished by their passion for learning and diligence. In this case, such a conspiracy can help them:


Do diligence, Lord,
Show us Your mercy,
Bless the servant of God (name).

Conspiracy to sharpen the mind

Not every child is quick-witted and quick-witted. Help him - read the following conspiracy over him:


Collect my scattered mind, O Lord,
And cleanse the frozen heart,
Like Peter, give me repentance,
Like a publican - sigh,
And like a harlot - tears,
Yes, with a great voice I call You, God,
Save me, as the One is Compassionate and Humanitarian.
Amen.

Conspiracy for the successful passing of exams

They shake the clothes in which they are going to go to the exam three times and say:


Who followed the Lord
They became his students.
And I follow the Lord.
Lord, give me luck in my studies.
In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
Amen.

Another conspiracy for the successful passing of exams

This plot is read three times before entering the auditorium in which the exam is taking place. After that, in no case should you let anyone write off at your place. The conspiracy sounds like this:


How bright is Sunday
So my head is clear.
How my mother loves me
How my father loves me
Grandfather and grandmother,
How they always cherished and pitied me,
So you, my teachers, would take pity on me.
Amen.

Learner's Prayer

In order for the Lord to give the child quick wits and a good memory, read the following prayer:

Most gracious Lord, send us the grace of Your Holy Spirit, who bestows and strengthens our spiritual strength, so that, listening to the teachings taught to us, we grow up to You, our Creator, to the glory, to our parents for consolation, the Church and the Fatherland for the benefit. Amen.

If the child does not want to study

In this case, one should pray to the holy righteous John of Kronstadt. As a child, John was not good at literacy, but after a fervent prayer coming from the very heart, it was as if a veil fell from the boy's eyes - and he began to read. Among other prayers addressed to the great miracle worker, there are also prayers with which you can turn to the saint and ask him to help the child study. This prayer goes like this:

Holy Father John! You have drawn close to God with many virtues and you have been honored with spiritual gifts from Him: heal ailments, drive away passions and quench sorrows. Meanwhile, we humbly pray to you: give us healing with our illness and healing with passion, and those who find us, quench sorrows and instill spiritual joy in our hearts. And help us to be imitators of your holy life and all your good deeds, as if we were worthy with you of the heritage of the Kingdom of Heaven. Amen.

Prayer for a Badly Taught Boy

Lord Jesus Christ, our God, dwelling in the hearts of the Twelve Apostles without hypocrisy, by the grace of the All-Holy Spirit, who descended in the form of tongues of fire, and opened these mouths, and began to speak in other tongues: Lord Jesus Christ our God Himself, send down that Holy Spirit upon these children (Name); and plant in the ears of his heart the Holy Scriptures, even as Your Most Pure hand on the tablets was drawn to the legislator Moses. Now and forever, and forever and ever. Amen.

Prayer for work and occupation for children

This prayer is addressed to Saint Mitrofan, in schema Macarius, of Voronezh. Parents turn to Saint Mitrofan with a request for a safe arrangement for their children, remembering that he once asked for his son, Ivan Mikhailov, who served as a clerk. The saint asked that no one offend his son, that he be protected, and that the young man himself stay away from bad people which can lead him astray.

O Holy Hierarch Father Mitrofan, we are sinners, by the incorruption of your honest relics and by many good deeds miraculously done and done by you, having confidence, we confess that you have great grace from the Lord our God, and humbly falling to your mercy, we pray to you: pray for us Christ our God, may He send His rich mercy to all who honor your holy memory and diligently resort to you; may the living spirit of the right faith and piety, the spirit of knowledge and love, the spirit of peace and joy in the Holy Spirit, be established in His holy Orthodox Church, that all her children, being pure from worldly temptations and carnal lusts and the evil action of evil spirits, worship in spirit and in truth Him, and diligently about the observance of His commandments for the salvation of their souls, let them try. May the Lord give her shepherd the holy zeal of care for the salvation of people, to enlighten the unbelieving in the hedgehog, instruct the ignorant, doubting to reason, return those who have fallen away from the Orthodox Church to her, keep those who believe in faith, move sinners to repentance, comfort those who repent and affirm in correcting life, and so all people to the prepared eternal Kingdom of His saints lead. Pray to the Lord, the servant of Christ, His faithful servants, crying out to Him in sorrow and sorrow day and night, let the many-pained cry be heard and let our stomach be destroyed from death. May the good God grant our peace, silence, serenity and abundance of the fruits of the earth to all people in the state, moreover, to the fulfillment of the commandments, His care is not lazy; and may he deliver the reigning cities, this city and all other cities and towns, from famine, coward, flood, fire, sword, invasion of foreigners, internecine strife, deadly ulcers and from all evil.

To her, the saint of God, may you arrange with your prayers all that is good for our souls and our bodies; Yes, and we will glorify in our souls and bodies our Lord and our God, Jesus Christ, to Him with the Father and the Holy Spirit, glory and power forever and ever. Amen.

To pass exams

Before you go to the examiner, take three sips of charmed water. Water is spoken like this:


Lord, remove every obstacle
Send me a reward according to my faith.
So that everything I say is suitable,
My fair judges please.
Even my word is disgusting
May it be pleasant for them.
The key to my words
Castle to my business.
In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
Amen.

words before the exam


How every man pities himself,
So let my teacher
Now he pities me.


There was a teacher Jesus Christ,
In His holy hands, the holy Cross carried.
His faithful disciples followed Him,
They carried holy books in their hands.
How God Loved His Disciples
And I forgave them everything
So that my teacher
He gave me his words of praise!

To prevent a child from being beaten at school

Go to school on an even day of the week, and when your child enters the school, you, looking at the school door, say:


Like Mother of the Lord
She carried on her arms,
How she protected and loved her Son.
So that everyone would love my child,
And the saints blessed him.
In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
Now, forever, forever and ever.
Amen.

If your child is bullied at school

To protect a child if he is harassed at school, the following conspiracy will help you:


In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Ivan the Postel, Ivan the Theologian,
Ivan the Long-suffering,
headless Ivan,
Archangel Michael,
Archangel Gabriel,
George the Victorious,
Nicholas the Wonderworker, Barbara the Great Martyr,
Praskovya the Great Martyr, Panteleimon the Healer,
Saints Faith, Hope,
Love and their mother Sophia,
Saints Turii, Vavili, Samoyly
And the grieving Mother of God,
Let no enemies
Offend my child.
Seventy seven pains
One and a half sorrows
Go out to meet his enemies,
By the legs, by the hands cling to them,
Take away the mind in your head,
Deprive their eyes of white light.
Let them stand like a pillar, become numb,
They will become stiff, my child
They won't be able to do bad things.
The earth will swallow them up
God will deprive them of mercy,
Prayers won't help them
My conspiracy will not prevail
Their traces will disappear from the earth,
To my child, the servant of God (name),
They won't fit.
Ivan the Baptist
My conspiracy baptized
Ivan Postitel
Blessed the words
Ivan the Long-suffering
Strengthened my deeds,
Jesus Christ
Approved from word to word.
George the Victorious
My enemies will be defeated
Panteleimon the Healer
My child will heal
The holy army will take on holy hands,
My dear child will carry among the enemies.
And be you, all my words,
Eternal and endless
Strong, strong and sculpting.
Key to my words, lock to my deeds.
In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
Now and forever and forever and ever.
Amen.

Unfortunately, people rarely tend to appreciate other people's talents. Therefore, rewrite the words of a special conspiracy-amulet on a piece of paper and ask the child to always carry it with him and not show it to anyone. In this case no one will hurt the child and no one will harm him. The words of the conspiracy are as follows:


My baby's angel
bright, kind,
I release my child on you.
Protect him, protect him
From the eyes of enemies, from heavy fists,
From malicious laughter
Send him your success.

Amen.

Because of a stupid quarrel, you can lose a good friend.

Because of our pride, we lose loyal friends, and then bitterly regret what happened, believing that nothing can be changed. can help you a way to help reconcile loved ones. They read the cherished words in a strong wind, holding the icon of the Mother of God "Seven-arrows" in their hands.


First time, God's hour.
Fly, wind, to Jerusalem,
Come home from the holy land.
Extinguish with your spirit, with your strength the anger of heretics,
Angry craftswomen, old and young.
Mother "Seven-shooter",
Shoot with Your seven arrows
Every evil, every quarrel,
Put an end to the heated argument
Apparel, capes, collars, nets, keels,
Living graves, fakes, heart disease
Headaches, hepatic coli.
To not harass each other:
Insomnia, sleeplessness,
Cross, whip, grave nail.
Reconcile the servants of God (names)
From this day, from this hour, from Your command.
Cool them with Jordanian holy water.
In the name of God Christ, come out, resentment,
From the servants of God (names).
Calm down, pacify, Mother "Seven-shooter".
In the name of the Father and the Son
And the Holy Spirit.
Now and ever
And forever and ever.
Amen.

A slight malaise threatens to develop into a dangerous disease.

To avoid misfortune and recover faster from all ailments, more often pray to the Mother of God in front of the icon of “Joy of All Who Sorrow” with a request to get rid of the disease and bestow health.

Promises and threats dashing.
Be you in the mountains, in the caves,
Where people don't go
Animals don't run, snakes don't crawl
The birds don't fly.
There you, quarrels, live,
There you, discord, be
Get along with caves, with stones,
And from the servants of God (your names with the enemy)
Get off.
Like the Lord God never with His Mother Mary
Didn't quarrel, didn't speak against her
And he did not raise his hands against her,
Been in peace and harmony
So would we, the servants of God (your names with the enemy),
Lived, made friends
They forgot about their enmity forever and ever.
Be, my words, strong, sculpted to my cause.
And who will think against my case,
Dashingly think, wildly do,
Tom salt in the eyes, sober on the tongue.
Key, lock, on my word Bogoroditsyn amulet.
In the name of the Father and the Son
And the Holy Spirit.
Now and ever
And forever and ever.

Sharpening stones, cleaning, whitewashing,
You heal the sick.
Rinse, roll, rinse from me, from God's servant (name),
All sorrows, all diseases:
Night, day, forged, -
From clear eyes, from black eyebrows,
With a zealous heart.

And my body is white.

Cover them with the robe of Your Motherhood, keep them in the fear of God and in obedience to your parents, implore my Lord and Your Son, may He grant them useful things for their salvation. I entrust them to Your Motherly care, as You are the Divine Protection of Your servants. Mother of God, introduce me into the image of Your heavenly Motherhood. Heal the spiritual and bodily wounds of my children (names), inflicted by my sins. I entrust my child entirely to my Lord Jesus Christ and Yours, Most Pure, heavenly patronage. Amen.


And then read the following plot:


Mother of the Blessed Virgin Mary!
Fly to me yourself
No - so the messengers went,
Angels of their strengtheners,
Calm the heart.
Jesus Christ, open three gates:
One for peace, the other for humility,
Third gate for blessing.
Bless, Lord, mother's heart,
So that it does not knock hard,
The mother did not suffer from fear for her children,
In the evening I fell asleep peacefully,
I didn't get up in the morning dazed.
In an open field stands the sea,
This sea is never swept away:
Not in autumn, not in winter, not in summer and not in spring.
On the sea that eternal rest.
In winter, the sea does not sweep
Doesn't disappear in autumn
In the spring, it does not flow away with streams.
All in one place, all in one measure.
On the sea that is calm,
The wind does not make noise there, the wave does not seethe there,
So it is with the servant of God (name)
For your children, the heart does not hurt,
Doesn't burn, doesn't groan
He won't get tired, he won't scream, and he won't even peep.
Be you, my words, just as strong,
How strong is the alatyr stone,
Sculpting and tenacious and not dissuaded.
Amen to my words, amen to my deeds.
In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
Now and forever and forever and ever.
Amen. Amen.
Amen.

Hear us, now on the day of sorrow before Your icon, falling down and praying to You with tears: take away from us the sorrows and sorrows that are upon us in this temporal life, but Your creations are not deprived of Your omnipotent intercession and eternal endless joys in the Kingdom of Your Son and our God.

I will rise, be blessed
I'll go into the yard, cross myself.
There is an aspen barrel in the yard.
And in that aspen bucket Agobol sits,
Looks like stupid thorns,
He doesn't see anything around him.
So everyone would sit in court,
They looked, but did not hear anything, did not mature,
Bad thoughts did not think
Malice did not rage
The servant of God (name) was not punished.
Be you, judges, fair,
Before the bribes of my enemies are bashful.
Bless, Lord, those
Who carries God in his soul,
And the one for whom my tongue asks.
In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
Now and forever and forever and ever.

In the dark dense forest,
In the field, quicksand swamp,
In the deep sea, in the river,

On fire, on high steeps,
In the yellow sands loose.
