Second Prayer for the Healing of the Sick
Oh, Merciful God, Father, Son and Holy Soul, worshiped and glorified in the indivisible Trinity, look gracefully on Your servant (name), possessed by illness; let him go of all his transgressions; give him healing from the disease; restore his health and bodily strength; Give him a long-lived and prosperous life, Thy peaceful and peaceful, good, so that he, together with us, brings grateful prayers to Thee, the All-Bountiful God and my Creator.
If we ask God for something and don’t sacrifice anything ourselves, then our request is not worth much. If I sit with folded hands and say: “My God, I ask You, heal such and such a sick person,” and I don’t make any sacrifice myself, then I’m just like saying good words. If I have love, if I have a sacrifice, then Christ, seeing them, will fulfill my request - of course, if it will benefit another. Therefore, when people ask you to pray for someone who is sick, tell them to pray too, or at least try to get rid of their shortcomings.
Elder Paisiy Svyatorets (1924-1994).
In the church Orthodox Christian prepares himself for subsequent treatment in the hospital: he confesses (the sacrament of repentance), partakes of the Holy Mysteries of Christ, takes a blessing from the priest for the upcoming treatment, asks for his prayers for himself. It is very charitable if (if possible) a magpie is ordered for health and commemoration for the Psalter for 1-2 months (the latter is possible in monasteries and monastery courtyards), if relatives pray by agreement for the sick and suffering (prayer by agreement). However, relatives should remember that the church prayer for the sick is valid if it is accompanied by the prayer of those who ordered the service ... The commemoration at the liturgy, especially at the proskomedia and at the Augmented Litany, expresses our strongest faith and the hope that the Lord will not leave the patient with His help ...
The indefatigable psalter
Priest Sergiy Filimonov (20th century).
God was pleased to surround us except by natural and supernatural means. And no one is denied access to SIM sources. The key is faith. And God, when He wants to heal in this way, He Himself puts in the power of faith, and draws you to where He is pleased to give healing.
God listens to prayer when they pray with an aching soul for something. If no one sighs from the heart, then the prayer service will crackle, but there will be no prayer for the sick person. The same proskomedia, the same mass ... But do you yourself attend prayer services? If not, then your faith is also silent ... but by giving money so that others could pray, they themselves threw off all worries from their shoulders ... There is no one sick about the patient. A prayer service does not come to mind for those who serve a prayer service before the Lord for those who are commemorated at the prayer service ... And where can they get sick of everyone? It's another matter when you yourself at a prayer service, or in church at a liturgy pray during the service ... Then your sickness is taken by the prayer of the Church and quickly ascends to the Throne of God ... and the very prayer of the Church makes sickness, although the servants do not get sick .. . see what the power is ?! Be at the prayer services yourself, and hurt your soul about the sick person.
Saint Theophan, the Hermit of Vyshensky (1815-1894).
PRAYER OF THE SICK
(COMPOSED BY ST. GABRIEL SEDMIEZERSKI)
The Most Holy Theotokos the Virgin, who is alive and after death saving Thy inheritance everlastingly, hear the sighing of my soul, calling to Thee for help!
Descend from heaven, come and touch my mind and my heart, open the sight of my soul, so that I see You, my Lady, and Your Son, Creator, Christ and my God, and I will understand what His will is and what I am deprived of. To her, my Lady, begging for Thy help and praying for Thy Son, may He sit on me with His grace, so that I will remain chained at His feet by the bonds of His love forever, even if in wounds and illness, if he is sick and relaxed in his body, but at His feet.
I appeal to you, Lord Jesus! You are my sweetness, life, health, joy more than this world of joy, the whole composition of my life. Thou art more light than any light. I see my body motionless from illness, I feel the relaxation of all my members, pain in my bones. But, O my light, how the rays of Your light, falling on my wounds, delight me! Warmed by their warmth, I forget everything and at Your feet with my tears I wash my sins, I rise, I shine.
This is one thing I ask of Thee, my Jesus, - do not turn Thy face away from me, let me joyfully mourn my sins forever at Thy feet, for at the sight of You, Lord, repentance and tears are sweeter for me than the joys of the whole world.
Oh light, my joy, my sweetness, Jesus! Do not take me away from Thy feet, my Jesus, but by my prayer, wake up with me forever, and living Thou, I will praise Thee with the Father and the Spirit forever. Through the prayers of the Theotokos and all your saints, hear me, Lord. Amen.

How to ask correctly
Our physical health depends on how we keep the commandments of God, how often we come to God for confession, we unite with Christ in the sacrament of the Eucharist (Communion).
In other words, to start asking God, Holy Mother of God, saints about healing need to give an honest assessment of their lives. Answer the main question - what kind of Christian or Christian are you?
The Lord in the Bible, the book of Joshua, speaks of respect for earthly doctors. But first he instructs to look within himself, so that the believer learns to correspond to the Christian image and likeness, that is, to the Lord himself.
What to pray for
You also need to understand what makes prayer strong. This is not only the miraculous divine power of the saints. To make prayer really such, you need to cleanse yourself from sins, perform godly deeds, help those who are even worse than you.
Therefore, it is necessary to pray not only for physical recovery, but above all for spiritual recovery. The soul passes into eternal life, therefore, it is more important to take care of its salvation.
It is necessary to forgive everyone who has not been forgiven.
If the Lord allows illness, then do not grumble. God endured and told us to. Pray for healing humbly, trust in heavenly powers and God's providence. Take care of spiritual purity. We ask God for forgiveness for all the sins we commit. But we forget that we also need to forgive everyone who has not been forgiven. This is one of the first steps towards healing.
Prayer is the language in which believers speak with God, the Most Holy Theotokos, heavenly forces... This does not mean that the Lord does not understand the appeal to him in a different form.
You also need to understand what makes prayer strong.
The word God means - "one who has everything or one who knows everything." This means that for Him there is no incomprehensible foreign language. Any sincere appeal to Him, even mentally spoken words from a pure heart, filled with frankness, will reach Christ faster than lightning. There are prayers that are aimed at a specific disease.

What is the right way to pray for healing?
It is difficult to see God's providence in illness. It is not easy to accept suffering. But this is how the lost health is begged from the Lord. Strong prayers healing the sick will be effective if the person accepts the sickness and surrenders himself into the hands of God.
Reverend Silouan Afonsky writes: “I used to think that the Lord works miracles only through the prayers of the saints, but now I learned that the Lord will perform a miracle for the sinner as soon as his soul is humbled, for when a person learns humility, then the Lord listens to his prayers.”
“A soul that has surrendered to the will of God is afraid of nothing: no thunderstorms, no robbers, nothing. But no matter what happens, she says, "so God pleases." If he is sick, he thinks: it means that I need an illness, otherwise God would not have given it to me. And this is how peace is preserved in the soul and body ”(St. Silouan the Athonite).
When reading petitions, first it is necessary to bring repentance for committed sins, accept the will of God and sincerely cry: "My God, I am in Thy hands, have mercy on me according to Thy will and, if it is good for me, heal me."
They pray in front of the images of the Savior, the Virgin Mary, the saints. Candles or icon lamps are lit near the icons. They read healing prayers in their own words or by prayer. If the words in Church Slavonic are incomprehensible, then they use Explanatory collections of prayers in Russian. In the temple it is necessary to order a prayer service for health and to be present at it, if the state of health allows. They order a church prayer for the Liturgy, for this they submit a note with names to the icon shop.
How to ask for a sick person?
Praying for a loved one, a person shows the highest love. By showing concern, caring for the sick, he serves another, and thus calls upon himself the blessing of God. Ardent devotion to one's neighbor and persistence in prayer are very effective. St. John of Kronstadt said that our prayer has such power because when praying to God, we are done in one spirit with Him, and love and faith unites us with the one for whom we are praying.
Prayer to the Lord for the sick:
It's hard when innocent children are sick. It so happens that the spiritual cause of their suffering is the sins of their parents. Therefore, in case of a child's ailments, one should think about the unrepentant sins of the parents.
Often the only remedy needed for a baby to heal is the repentance of the father or mother.
Orthodox priests advise all the sick, as well as the parents of a sick child:
Prayer to the Mother of God for a sick child:
If during prayer for another one feels inattention, absent-mindedness, then the quality should be compensated for by quantity. Saint Seraphim of Sarov advised parents not to limit themselves to the usual rule and, imitating the monks, stand on night prayer.
"Whoever created the soul, God created the body, and He who heals the immortal soul, He can also heal the body from temporary suffering and disease." Macarius of Egypt.
Strong Prayers for Healing
They fall to God, praying for healing and asking for the forgiveness of sins. Not all, but many cases of Jesus Christ's miracles show the connection between sickness and sin. Before healing the paralytic, the Lord forgave his sins, and to the cripple in Bethesda he said: "Behold, you have recovered, sin no more, so that something worse does not happen to you." The restoration of health through the prayers of the Church leads to the forgiveness of sins, and this is followed by recovery.
Some diseases serve for the glory of God, so that the Name of the Lord may be glorified. The apostles asked Christ, passing by the blind from birth: “Whoever has sinned, he or his parents, that he is blind. Jesus said: neither he nor his parents sinned, but this is so that the works of God may appear on him. "
Prayers to God
The Lord said, "Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy laden, and I will give you rest." Healing Prayer:
Prayers to the Mother of God "Three-handed"

We believe, as if, after moving from earth to heaven, the gift of grace sowing was intensified in you, and as if you were made an inexhaustible vessel of all benevolence. Create “all joys” by your intercession and intercession before God, so that everyone who comes running to you will find peace and serenity: grant them comfort in temporary sorrows and help in the needs of everyday life, instill in them the hope of eternal rest in the Kingdom of Heaven.

The traditions according to which it is customary to address certain saints are not always obvious - for example, the holy blessed Matrona of Moscow was a cripple during her lifetime - she did not have physical sight, for which the Lord endowed her with great spiritual sight: Matrona Matrona saw much more than many sighted, and she helped in all requests, healed every seriously ill person and any ailment, humbly bearing her cross. They pray to her in any illness and need.
Prayer to Matrona of Moscow

For a long time we have resorted to the help of this or that saint, reading prayers for recovery - it does not matter if we ourselves are sick, or ask for the health and salvation of our relatives, loved ones, friends or acquaintances.
They often pray for recovery and speedy recovery from illness to the Most Holy Lady Theotokos, and a prayer for healing addressed to the Queen of Heaven is a broad concept that includes many different prayers in front of various images, against various ailments, for various purposes (there is, for example, mother's prayer for health of a sick child, prayer for cancer).
If there is no prayer for recovery from your illness, pray to the Virgin Mary with the prayer that was originally intended for the image of the "Healer". By the way, if you could not find such an icon - do not be discouraged, you can ask the Most Holy Theotokos for help in front of any of Her icons.
Prayer for the "Healer" icon
“Accept, O all-blessed and omnipotent Lady Mistress Theotokos Virgin, these prayers, with tears to You now brought from us, Your unworthy servant, to Your celibate image the singing of those who send with tenderness, as if You are here Himself and listen to our prayer. For some reason you create fulfillment, make sorrows easier, grant health to the weak, heal the weakened and ailing, drive away demons from demonic demons, save you from offenses, cleanse the lepers, and have mercy on little children: still, to the Lady the Lady of the Mother of God, you also have much freedom from prison and all prisoners : All essence is possible by Thy intercession to Thy Son, Christ our God. O All-chanted Mother, Most Holy Theotokos! Do not cease to pray for us, unworthy of Thy servants, who glorify Thee and honor Thee, and worship Thy most pure image with tenderness, and the hope of those who haves is irrevocable and unreasonable faith to Thee, Ever-Most Glorious and Immaculate, now and ever and ever and ever. Amen."
How to pray according to the rules?
Among the great multitude of prayers, it is very easy to get confused - therefore, if you cannot find a prayer that is customary to read in your particular case, ask the advice of a holy father or an experienced an orthodox person, you can even mothers or grandmothers, if they are believers. Do not be fooled by false experience and ostentatious religiosity - many people who call themselves Orthodox Christians cover up their supposedly earnest faith for bad intentions and aspirations.
The prayer for recovery should be recited with faith and good intention. Do not make conspiracies for water, food and medicine if you, relying on the mercy of the Lord, drink holy water or lubricate sore spots with blessed oil - they must be consecrated by a priest, reading conspiracies and spells is unacceptable, this is a huge sin.
If you are praying for the health of a sick child, your parent, friend or relative, in a word, if you are not sick, stand in front of the icon (it does not matter at all, despite the widespread statements on the Internet, what kind of icon it will be).
Light a candle or a lamp, its light will tune in a prayerful mood and warm the heart, allowing it to soar more easily to the Lord.
Read the words of the prayer with tenderness and awe, do not get used to them, do not let your thoughts be scattered and do not be distracted. Do not follow the recommendations on the number and method of placing candles - if you are confused by this advice, you clearly need to consult with the priest. V Orthodox tradition there are instructions on the exact number of candles for some rituals, but they are usually performed by a priest - they are not applicable for private prayer.
You can pray to the saints for help always and everywhere - not only in times of extreme need and danger, not only in a church or near an icon. The omnipresent Lord sees us in our need, knows him about every problem, and he sends through the prayers of His saints a quick and powerful intercession.
Do not read conspiracy prayers, do not anger God, do not offend Him with magic. Necessary preparation- humility and sincere repentance for their sins. If you have it, the Lord will hear the prayer and raise you from the sick bed.
In order for God to hear our prayer, we must apologize to all those close to us, ask for forgiveness from everyone with whom we quarreled. This must be done sincerely - only after that can one begin to pray.
After receiving help, you need to thank God and His saints from the bottom of your heart - God pleases thanksgiving prayers, and the Gospel speaks about this: out of ten people healed from grievous leprosy, only one returned and thanked God. Of all of them, he was most pleasing to Jesus, despite the fact that the recovered person belonged to a different faith.
As a gratitude, you can donate to the needs of the church, light candles in front of the icons of the saints (a candle is also a sacrifice to God), order prayers for them, read akathists and do generous alms in the Name of the Lord.
