You can also pray according to this book: in the Appendix you will find an image of the icon of the saint, as well as prayers and an akathist. And remember: wherever you are, no matter what difficulties you experience, turn to St. Sergius of Radonezh, and you will see: help will definitely come.

Holy Reverend Father Sergius, pray to God for us!

Why the prayer of the saints helps

The prayer of the righteous can do much

It often happens like this: a person prays to God, but God does not seem to hear him, although the prayer is fervent and sincere. But it is worth the same person to turn in his prayer to some saint - and help comes immediately. Why does this happen? Surely it does not follow from this that the saint is “stronger” than God? Of course it shouldn't. Moreover, only God can give help through prayer.

And yet, why is prayer to a saint sometimes more effective than prayer to God himself? To understand this, you need to think about the words with which we pray to the saints:

Holy Father (or Holy Mother), pray to God for us!

We ask the saint to pray to God for us. And this prayer is heard much faster than when we pray to God alone. That's right: praying to the saint, we ask him to join our prayer. After all, prayer is a special skill. Few people are fluent in it. Even when we turn to God with all our heart, the mind is still distracted by some extraneous objects. Often a person only thinks that he is praying, but in fact he is thinking about things that are very far from prayer. No wonder God doesn't hear him! The saint will never be distracted from prayer, because prayerful standing before the Lord is his only “work”. Actually, a person was called a saint because he managed to get so close to God that God began to act through him. After all, not a single person in the world is holy in himself. Only God is holy. Holy and means - God's, that is, who came to God. Every person has the opportunity to come to God, to become a saint. But not everyone succeeds.

The path to God is both simple and complex at the same time. It is simple, because God is always near a person, always hears him. And it is difficult because our worldly life is full of vanity - worldly worries, desires, pleasures, temptations. Every now and then a person falls into the snares of these vain deeds and forgets about God. This is where the saints come to the rescue. They themselves have gone through this difficult path, and they know where danger awaits a person. Saints are our irreplaceable guides on the path to God, and therefore we call on them for help.

About how important it is to pray to the saints, Archimandrite Sergius (Spassky) wrote: “There is no doubt that if there were no saints of God on earth; then there would be no us. If righteous Noah and his family had not been found on earth before the global flood, then the entire human race would have perished in the waves of the flood. To this great righteous man all nations and we owe our existence on earth. God revealed to Abraham that He was ready to spare the big city if there were ten righteous people in it (Genesis 18:30). Through the mouth of the prophet Isaiah, He announced that the earth stands as a holy seed (Isaiah 6:13).

Not only do we owe our temporary existence on earth to the saints of God, but they also lead us to eternal bliss in heaven. They are partners with God in the work of our salvation. And first: the saints of God lead us to salvation through their writings. Through whom are the books of the Holy Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments given to us? Through Moses and the prophets and apostles. If we honor the books of Holy Scripture, how can we not honor those through whom they were written? How not to further honor the holy fathers and teachers of the church, who, through their writings, explained Holy Scripture, confounded heretics, approved the Orthodox faith?

Secondly, the saints of God lead us to the kingdom of heaven by their virtuous life, which they led on earth. There is no doubt that the sufferings of the martyrs for faith in Christ confirmed in their time many weak Christians in the faith, they drew many pagans to Christ and served to spread the faith of Christ, by which we are saved; but the reading of the lives of the martyrs, saints, reverend men and women, Christ for the sake of the holy fools and other saints, how many saved after them, how many wiser and wiser in the fight against the temptations of the world and evil spirits. In truth, the saints of God are images for us in the work of salvation (1 Pet. 5:3; 1 Tim. 4:12).

Thirdly, the saints of God lead us to the kingdom of heaven by their intercessory prayers for us before God and by their help in the matter of our salvation. Strong is the intercession of the saints before God even during their earthly life for people. King Abimelech of Gerar offended Abraham and God himself commanded this king to ask prayers for himself from Abraham and only through the intercession of this righteous man saved him from death (Gen. 20, 7; Job. 42, 7-9; Jacob. 5, 16-18) . All the more powerful are the intercessory prayers of the saints for us in heaven; for they are incomparably closer to God there. We know that St. the prophet Elijah, even at the time of his ascension to heaven, gave Elisha a special grace, that is, twice as much as he himself had on earth, for in heaven he is glorified incomparably more than twice ”(Archimandrite Sergius (Spassky), On the veneration of icons).

People achieved holiness in different ways, so in the church saints are called differently. Martyrs are those who have been killed or tortured to death for Christ. Apostles - those who were sent by Christ himself to preach the word of God; Equal-to-the-Apostles - those who in their deeds became like the apostles. Righteous the Church calls ascetics living in the world, hierarchs - ascetics in the rank of bishop.

There were in the host of saints and those who all their earthly life dedicated to learning how to pray with all your being, without being distracted by any other worries. For the sake of this skill, they gave up everyday comforts, worldly careers, family joys. Even the needs of one's own body were less important to such people than prayer. Gradually, step by step, they mastered this complex art, and, in the end, their prayer became perfect. This prayer, cleansed of all worldly thoughts, was focused only on God, and therefore every word of such a person was heard. Such saints were called saints. Knowing about their special prayer ability, or feat, people came to them with their troubles and needs, and asked for prayers. And every time the request was granted: the sick were healed, the poor received help, the lost found the way.

St. Sergius of Radonezh was among such ascetics. Even during his lifetime, he became famous for his special gift of prayer: people from distant places came to him with their misfortune and asked him to pray for them. Sergius's prayer always helped. It helps even now, hundreds of years after his blessed death.

In our book, we will tell you about some of the miracles that happened through the prayer of Sergius. Some took place during his earthly existence, others were already revealed after the death of the saint. Even a dozen books are not enough to list all the known miracles of St. Sergius. Reading about them, you understand that there are other miracles unknown to us: after all, for centuries pilgrims have come and continue to come to the Trinity-Sergius Lavra, and everyone has their own pain, their own problem. And how many people pray to St. Sergius in their home prayers? And after all, help comes, just the person who prayed knows about it.

Sergius of Radonezh is venerated Orthodox Church not only as a great ascetic, but also as an amazing prayer book for people. For him, there was not and is not such a human need that would be too “petty”, “unworthy”, for which he would not beg God. Therefore, the Monk Sergius was always revered as a special, “own” saint.

Christ is Risen! I'm sorry, but this literal translation from Italian Songs Holy Mother of God. This Song begins in Italian with the words: “Ave, Maria! Piena di grazia….” You can find it on the Internet. Have a good mood and God's help in all good deeds!)

I read prayers, if I am healed and get a decent job, and most importantly, I will work there for many years, then I will finally believe.

It is somehow strange to hear from some brothers and sisters in our faith: ... they say, if the Lord helps me, then I will finally believe. "If you were cold or hot, but you are warm, therefore I will spew you out of my mouth! » . Christ is Risen! Risen indeed! May the Grace of the Holy Spirit be with us!

St. Sergius of Radonezh from ancient times bears the name of the Abbot of the Russian Land - and therefore, the head of Russian monasticism. It was he who arranged the first large monastery - the Trinity-Sergius Lavra (located in the city of Sergiyev Posad, named after the saint) on the lands of Moscow Russia, raised a whole galaxy of students who dispersed throughout the country and created their own monasteries. He approved the foundations of monastic life in relation to Russia (after all, the Rule of monastic life was written in the south, in Syria, where both the climate and the mentality differ from Russia).
Saint Sergius performed many miracles throughout his life, but the main miracle is that when praying to him, especially when visiting the Sergius Lavra, peace and tranquility reign in the soul, as if he had a conversation with a living person, his spiritual father. Now there is a theological seminary in the Lavra, whose students constantly pray to St. Sergius and testify: after prayer, knowledge is assimilated much better, and at exams the answers are remembered by themselves.
Sergius of Radonezh is the main patron in studies, an assistant to students and schoolchildren. Saint Sergius also helps in other needs: in case of illness, in unfair situations at work and life.

Why Sergius of Radonezh is prayed for help in studies

Saint Sergius became famous for his kindness, asceticism and great faith in God. These qualities have been in him since childhood. He prayed as a child, attended the temple with his parents, like all the guys went to school. His life was completely turned upside down by a miracle that happened to him in childhood.

For a long time he could not understand letters. The guys in the parish school laughed at him, teachers punished him - and then it was customary to “train” children with rods. The boy Bartholomew—that was the name of St. Sergius before monasticism—prayed a lot to the Lord for an understanding of his studies. Once, not far from home, he met an old wanderer in monastic clothes. Being pious and kind child, Bartholomew asked the monk for blessings, invited his parents to the house, and then told him about his sadness - a misunderstanding of his studies.

The Stranger read a prayer over him and blessed him with a prosphora, and then ordered him to read a chapter from the Gospel aloud... Bartholomew was embarrassed and almost burst into tears - how could it be, he had just told his misfortune of not being able to read, and now the elder forced him to take the book. But he trusted the monk - and as soon as he picked up the book, all the words became clear to him! Imagine, the child did not know a single letter - and now he is reading a book in a row!

After the sincere gratitude of Bartholomew and his parents, the elder left their house and in an instant became invisible ... All those present at the same time decided: this was the appearance of an Angel!

Since then, Bartholomew has found a cherished dream: to become a monk, to devote himself to Almighty God. At first he helped his parents, and when they grew old and died, he went to the monastery. Having mastered the spiritual life and received the blessing of the monastic authorities, he went into the forests, far from people, to live alone - in the "desert" - and pray to the Lord for the whole world.

Sometimes, in order to partake of the Holy Mysteries and resolve everyday issues, he also visited the monastery. People saw how kind he was, how he believed in the Lord and was ascetic. Many began to come to Bartholomew, who had taken monastic tonsure with the name Sergius and the priesthood. He introduced a cenobitic charter - everyone who came to the monastery divided the property among themselves, lived on donations, and Saint Sergius himself took the least of all. This monastery today is the Holy Trinity Sergius Lavra, one of the largest monastic cloisters in Russia.

Soon the princes began to come to the monk. He gave everyone wise advice, called for virtuous Christian life, reconciled leading internecine swearing. It was he who blessed Prince Dimitry Donskoy, also later glorified as a saint, for the battle on the Kulikovo Field.

What helps and what to pray for Sergius of Radonezh

Despite the fact that Saint Sergius was a monk and patron of monastics, even during his lifetime he received everyone who came to him and asked for help. And now, in Heaven, the saint hears the prayer of everyone. Therefore, to him, as if to spiritual father, with hope and faith, each person can turn to help. He is asked

  • about tuition assistance before entering educational institution or before exams, about a better understanding of any new knowledge - in childhood, the future reverend could not study well and after prayers a miracle happened to him, he perfectly mastered his studies;
  • about the healing of the sick - there is a lot of evidence of lifetime healings of people and healings through prayer to him, especially in front of his holy relics in the Lavra;
  • about the treatment of children and about protecting them from evil forces, other influences and other troubles - once the saint resurrected a child at the tearful request of his father;
  • about overcoming life's difficulties and protection from any troubles - there is a lot of evidence of the miraculous help of the monk in any circumstances;
  • about the fight against passions and, according to tradition, especially against pride;
  • about work, finding a new job and settling the troubles in an existing one, finding your professional path.

Prayer to Sergius of Radonezh for academic success

Before passing important exams, people turn to the Lord for help. For many, this is the first visit to the temple or even the first prayer. Everyone understands that no matter how much they prepare, there is always an element of chance that can nullify many efforts. Prayer is the most correct means of not only self-complacency, but also turning to God and His saints for the sake of understanding that all the events of a person’s life are in the hands of God and you trust Him

Most often, schoolchildren and students remember God out of necessity: before an exam, with learning difficulties. This is also a reason to learn more about the Church. Orthodox church- that starting point from which a young person can build his system of existential coordinates, choose the right path of goodness. And it is in the temple that a young man can always count on help - the support of a priest who will definitely find time to talk with you and spiritual help from the Lord and His saints - you just have to turn to them with a prayer.

Also, the prayer to St. Sergius of Radonezh is intended for people of all ages: schoolchildren, students, students of a driving school, specialists undergoing retraining.

Psychologists advise before the exam to have self-confidence. That is why even they encourage turning to various talismans, lucky pens, passing through the fifth turnstile in the subway, affirmations and so on - the main thing is to be calm and believe in the best.

Prayer is the most correct remedy. After all, this is not only self-complacency, but also an appeal to God and His saints, an understanding that all the events of a person’s life are in the hands of God and you trust Him, the Helper of all people.

A prayer for the study of Sergius of Radonezh in Russian can be read online:

"O reverend father our Sergius, who had the Holy Spirit in him during his lifetime! Look at us (or - me, name or names) mercifully and, to the earth of adherents, elevate to the height of Heaven. Strengthen our cowardice and strengthen us in the faith, so that we undoubtedly hope to receive the blessings of heaven and earth from the merciful Master of the Lord through your prayers. Ask for your intercession for everything that everyone needs - may it be a gift from the Lord to us, may we use everything bestowed for good - and help us all with your prayers, but on the day of the Last Judgment of God we will not be condemned for our sins, but we will rise according to right hand from Christ, and let us hear His merciful voice, saying: "Come, blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom of heaven prepared for you from the foundation of the world." Amen."

Prayer to Sergius of Radonezh for children before the exam

A mother who worries about her children will use every means to help her child learn. And here you need to remember that in no case should you go to fortune-tellers, people-"healers", psychics. Pray to the true healers - God and His saints. For example, during his lifetime, Nicholas the Wonderworker miraculously helped young people and children, there are many testimonies of his help from Heaven.

That is why every mother should have a separate icon of the Lord and the patron saints of children, in front of which she can immediately pray to the saint in case of danger, if necessary for the child. The holy icon, the very name of the saint, by its very presence, will save the child from the influence of evil forces.

  • Pray for help for the children on the exam alone, and preferably together with your husband and with other parents of the examinees.
  • You can light candles in front of the image.
  • Read the prayer "Our Father" and then the prayer according to the text below.
  • You can first collect holy water in the temple, give it to the child to drink, and then add a little holy water to the child’s drink all the time. In any temple there is a rather voluminous tank with the inscription "Holy Water" - this is drinking water consecrated by a priest at a water-blessing prayer service.

“Our Lord, Jesus Christ, we resort to Your help and pray to You, do not turn away from our parental prayer. Remember, Lord, Your promise: Where two or three are gathered in My Name, there I am in the midst of them; remember also what You said after Your Resurrection:
"I'm with you until the end of time"

Oh, Blessing Your holy disciples and apostles after Your Ascension and Promising them the Grace of the Holy Spirit, Giving them the gift of wisdom and understanding on the day of Pentecost through Your Holy Spirit, Creating many of the former fishermen and ordinary people apostles - teachers of the wisdom of faith!

Give to our children (names or name), passing examination tests, the same Spirit of Wisdom and reason, which you once gave to your holy disciples. Help our children, without fear and embarrassment, without forgetting anything from the knowledge taught to them, to reasonably and calmly state what is required in the exam. Make the teachers of the examiners peaceful and supportive of the students, as you once helped the Monk Sergius of Radonezh and the righteous John of Kronstadt, and many other saints of yours. Through their prayers, together with St. Nicholas the Wonderworker, Martyr Tatyana, St. Tikhon of Zadonsk, Blessed Matrona of Moscow, with three saints - Basil the Great, John Chrysostom and Gregory the Theologian - through Your Holy Spirit, from the Father proceeding, be merciful to all of us forever. Amen."

Prayer of pride to Sergius of Radonezh

Pride, vanity - this is one of the most severe, mortal sins of people. The name “mortal” means that the commission of this sin, and especially the habit of it, is a passion (for example, a person did not just have sexual intercourse outside the family, but had it for a long time; he did not just get angry, but does it regularly and does not fight with himself ) leads to the death of the soul, its irreversible change. This means that if a person does not confess his sins in earthly life to a priest in the Sacrament of Confession, they will grow into his soul, become a kind of spiritual drug. After death, not so much God's punishment will befall a person, but he himself will be forced to send him to hell - where his sins lead him.

Pride and vanity differ in that pride (pride in superlatives) aims to put oneself ahead of everyone, to consider oneself the best of all - no matter what they think of you. At the same time, a person forgets that, first of all, his life depends on God and he does a lot thanks to God. And vanity, on the contrary, makes it “seem, not be” - the most important thing is how people around see the person (albeit poor, but with an iPhone - that very case of vanity).

Pride is partly characteristic of every person, if you do not fight it. You need to watch your inner spiritual state, ask for deliverance not only from traditional pride, but also from any sins.

You can often hear that the worst sin is pride. They say this because strong pride blinds their eyes, it seems to us that we have no sins, and if we did something, then this is an accident. Of course, this is absolutely not true. You need to understand that people are weak, that in modern world we devote too little time to God, the Church and the perfection of our souls with virtues, and therefore we can be guilty of very many sins, even through ignorance and inattention. It is important to be able to expel sins from the soul in time by confession. However, perhaps the most terrible of sins is suicide - because it can no longer be corrected. Suicide is terrible, because we give away what is given to us by God and others - life, leaving our loved ones and friends in terrible grief, dooming our soul to eternal torment.

Passions, vices, mortal sins are very difficult to expel from oneself. In Orthodoxy there is no concept of atonement for passion - after all, all our sins have already been atoned for by the Lord Himself. The main thing is that we must confess and take communion in the church with faith in God, prepared by fasting and prayer. Then, with the help of God, stop committing a sinful act and fight sinful thoughts.

During Confession, a person names his sins to the priest - but, as it is said in the prayer before confession, which the priest will read, this is a confession to Christ Himself, and the priest is only a servant of God who visibly gives His grace. We receive forgiveness from the Lord.

In Confession we receive the forgiveness of all the sins that we have named and those that we have forgotten. Under no circumstances should sins be concealed! If you are ashamed, name the sins, among others, briefly, according to the names we have given in the list of mortal sins.

Preparing for confession is basically reflecting on your life and repentance, that is, admitting that certain things you have done are sins.

The Monk Sergius himself worked hard to eradicate passions in himself - after all, we are all not without sin, holiness must be acquired by prayer, self-observation, labor, communion with the Sacraments of the Church. Read before Confession and when you feel pride in yourself or relatives a short prayer in Russian, troparion to Sergius of Radonezh:

“From your youth, you accepted Christ into your soul, reverend, and most of all you wanted to get away from worldly fuss, courageously settled in a desert place, and brought up the virtues of obedience and humility in yourself there. Being a receptacle of the grace of God, you, who came to you with faith, enlightened with your miracles and gave many healings and miracles to everyone. Our Father Sergius, pray to the Lord to save our souls and give us something useful for life.

Prayer to St. Sergius for healing, health

Sergius of Radonezh is prayed for bodily and spiritual recovery, that is, not only for the healing of spiritual illnesses - passions, for deliverance from depression, despondency, despair, anxiety and other mental illnesses, and, of course, for bodily health.

Health is the main guarantee of happiness, the main wish on any holiday. Sincerely wishing health to relatives and friends, we care about their physical and spiritual life.

However, illness can also be a reminder to us of the spiritual aspect of our lives. After all, in the whirlwind of everyday work, we get used to filling free time in entertainment, to constant gadgets, attention to which fills even short periods of time on a bus or in a traffic jam, when, looking out the window, we can think about nature and its Creator.

In illness, you need to stop, ask God for your recovery and think about your life: possible mistakes, sins, habitual passions.

Often doctors themselves say to hope only for a miracle. And here people pray for healing, and for at least a short extension of life, and for the blissful death of a person. Be sure to rely on the will of God, be ready to accept His decision with humility - perhaps the soul of your loved one is already ready for paradise, but here, on Earth, only suffering will await him. Humble yourself, give the person as much time and attention as possible, ask the Lord to ease his suffering.

Never be afraid to pray in church, feel free to do something wrong. Place a candle in front of the icons of the Lord, Mother of God, St. Sergius of Radonezh, submit a note about the commemoration of you and your loved ones at the Liturgy. Attend divine services, thanking God for your life, for His help to you, for small daily miracles. Learn about the Church Sacraments of Confession and Communion, try to approach them sometimes. Seal your marriage with a wedding, and bless the child on life path Baptism.

“Oh, the priest, our reverend father Sergius, who, even during his earthly life, had the Holy Spirit in himself through your prayers, faith and love for the Lord, and the purity of your heart, settled your soul on earth in the Kingdom of the Holy Trinity, and angelic communion, and You were honored with visiting the Most Holy Theotokos herself, and received the gift of miraculous grace from God, after your departure from your earthly life, you came closer to God, communed with heavenly power, but also departed from us with the spirit of your love, and your honest relics, like a vessel full of grace and overflowing, leaving us!
Having great boldness to the All-Merciful Lord God, pray to Him that His servants will save, believing in His grace abiding on you and coming to you with love. Ask us from our God, who bestows great mercies, to give each of us a gift that we can use for good: true observance of faith, preservation of our cities, peace of mind, deliverance from hunger and death, preservation from the invasion of foreigners, consolation to grieving people, healing for those who fall into sins, restoration, those who err in the truth on the path of salvation, those who perform feats of prayer and strengthening work, who do things in good and useful labor, prosperity and blessing, education for children, instruction to youth, admonition to those who are ignorant of the faith, orphans and widows intercession for those leaving this temporal life for eternal good preparation and parting words with the sacred Mysteries of the Church, who have gone to the Lord - a blessed repose, and help us all with your prayers, so that on the day of the Last Judgment of God we will not be condemned for our sins, but we will stand on the right hand of Let us hear Christ and His merciful voice, saying: Come, you who are blessed by my Father, inherit the Kingdom of Heaven prepared for you from the foundation of the world. Amen."

Your instructions were by the reed of the scribe, the scribe, who inscribes the verbs of life on the heart of everyone. Thou didst not only heal bodily illnesses, but more than mental illnesses, the graceful doctor appeared; and all your holy life be a mirror of every virtue. If only a fraction was thou, holier than God, on earth, if thou art now, in Heaven!
