The best effective prayer for children. Powerful mother's prayers for children for every day

Prayers for children are the petitions of parents addressed to God and His saints. So, let's figure out what a prayer should be in order for it to be heard.

"Strong" prayer for children

Let's start, perhaps, with such a concept as "strong prayer for children." Unfortunately, modern mothers and fathers, far from church life, misunderstand the meaning of prayer, equating it with a spell. For them, prayer for children is not a living communication with God and His saints, but a set of magic words, saying which, their child "automatically" should become happy, healthy, rich (and further down the list). Therefore, if you are told about some kind of “strong” prayer, you need to understand that this has absolutely nothing to do with Orthodoxy. However, at the same time, maternal prayer really has incredible power! Sometimes, through the prayers of mothers, real miracles happen. Paradoxical, isn't it? In fact, everything is very simple ... A mother's heart, compassionate and sympathetic to her child, sincerely and repentantly praying to God, can do the impossible! Therefore, if you want your prayer for children to be strong, you need to:

Pray with attention, and not just say words like spells. Delve into the text of prayers composed by holy and pious people, try to let them through your heart.

Pray with repentance, realizing that you are sinners, for " God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble» (1 Peter 5:5)

Pray regularly and relentlessly, for Christ Himself said, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you...» (Matthew 7:7)

Pray first to God. The prayer of the Mother of God, the saints and the Guardian Angel will not replace the prayer to the Creator!

Strive to lead a godly Christian life keeping the main commandments - to love God with all your heart and to love your neighbors. And, sinning - repent. Lead the church life as well: go to confession regularly, take communion, read the Gospel. All this brings a Christian closer to righteousness, and the apostle James said: The fervent prayer of the righteous can do much"! (James 5:16)

What are the prayers for children:

  1. Prayer in your own words (but sometimes the heart asks to pray for a long time, and we don’t have enough words to express our feelings. Then it’s very good to pray according to the prayer book - those prayers that the holy fathers have already compiled for us)
  2. Prayer before a certain icon. For example, there are a huge number of icons of the Mother of God. Each of them has its own story... According to a good tradition, some of them pray for children. But, you need to understand - we pray to the Mother of God BEFORE the icon, which sets us in a certain way. We do not pray to the ICON itself. This is what distinguishes the Orthodox prayer for children from magic spells that cause great harm to the soul!
  3. Akathists. These are praises (quite long) that are prayed while standing. Any mother can choose an akathist to pray for her children. This may be an akathist to the Lord, the Mother of God, or one of the saints.

As you can see, a mother’s strong prayer is primarily a spiritual work, and not a set of certain “magic” words. But, let's not lose heart - everyone can do this work!

Prayer one:

O Most Holy Lady Virgin Mother of God, save and save my children under Your shelter (names), all youths, maidens and babies, baptized and nameless and carried in the womb of their mother. 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 physical 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.

Second Prayer for the Children of the Mother of God (before the icon of the Mother of God "Education")

Before this image, the Mother of God prays for any needs and problems in raising children.

Oh, Blessed Lady Virgin Mother of God, save and save under Your shelter my children (their names), all the youths, maidens and babies, baptized and nameless and carried in the womb of the mother. Cover them with the robe of Your Motherhood, keep them in the fear of God and in obedience to the parent, implore Your Son and our Lord, may the useful grant them to save them. I entrust them to Your Mother's care, as You are the Divine protection of Your servant. Amen.

Prayer for the children of the Mother of God the third (before the icon of the Mother of God "Addition of the mind" (or "Giver of the mind"))

There is a good tradition - to pray to the Mother of God before this image, if the child has learning difficulties

Amen.

Fourth Prayer for the Children of the Theotokos (before the icon of the Mother of God "Joy" (or "Consolation"))

In front of this icon, mothers ask the Mother of God for any help for their children.

Hope to all ends of the earth, Most Pure Virgin Mary, Our Consolation and Joy! Do not disdain us sinners, we trust in Your mercy. Extinguish the flame of sin and irrigate our withered hearts with repentance. Cleanse our mind from sinful thoughts. Accept prayers from the soul and heart with a sigh brought to you. Be an Intercessor for us to Your Son and God and turn His wrath away from us with Motherly prayers. Strengthen the Orthodox faith in us, put in us the spirit of the fear of God, the spirit of humility, patience and love. Heal mental and bodily ulcers, calm the storm of evil enemy attacks. Take away the burden of our sins and do not leave us to perish to the end. Grant us Thy mercy and Thy holy blessing to all who are present and praying here, and always be with us, giving joy and comfort, help and intercession to those who come to You, let us praise and magnify Thee until our last breath. Amen.

The fifth prayer for the children of the Mother of God (in front of the icon of the Mother of God "Mamming")

There is a good tradition - to turn to the Mother of God in front of this icon, including mothers who do not have enough breast milk

Accept, Lady Mother of God, the tearful prayers of Your servants who flow to You. We see you on holy icon who bears in her arms and nourishes with milk thy Son and our God, the Lord Jesus Christ. If and without pain you gave birth to Him, both the mother of grief, weight and weakness of the sons and daughters of men see. The same warmth, clinging to Your wholesome image and tenderly kissing this, we pray to You, the All-Merciful Lady: we, sinners, condemned to give birth in illnesses and feed our children in sorrows, mercifully spare and compassionately intercede, our babies, who also gave birth to them from a serious illness and deliver bitter sorrow. Grant them health and well-being, and their nourishment from strength will increase in strength, and those who feed them will be filled with joy and consolation, as even now, through Your intercession from the mouth of the infant and the pissing Lord, He will give His praise. O Mother of the Son of God! Have mercy on the mother of the sons of men and on Your weak people: soon heal the sicknesses that come upon us, quench the sorrows and sorrows that are upon us, and do not despise the tears and sighs of Your servants. Hear us on the day of sorrow before the icon of Your bow, and on the day of joy and deliverance, accept the grateful praise of our hearts. Lift up our prayers to the throne of Your Son and our God, may he be merciful to our sin and weakness and grant His mercy to those who lead His name, as if we and our children will glorify Thee, the merciful Intercessor and the faithful Hope of our kind, forever and ever. Amen.

Mother's prayer for children second:

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 path 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 down to them everything necessary in time to gain 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 the inexpressible goodness and eternal love Thy, I exalt Thy Most Holy Name, Father, Son and Holy Soul, forever and ever. Amen.

The most valuable and precious thing a mother can have is her child. Therefore, she tries with all her might to protect him from the troubles and hardships of this world. And in addition to physical protection, many parents resort to such a method as a mother's prayer for the child's health and well-being. But is prayer really that powerful? How often should it be used? We will try to answer these and other questions for you.

We call prayer an appeal in prose or verse to various Higher powers(beings) for help, with gratitude or praise for their deeds. Prayer acquires real power only when a true believer pronounces it. Therefore, in order for a mother's prayer for children to have an effect, a woman must necessarily believe in her strength and that she will help.

Prayer can be:

  • public (when it is said by a group of people, for example, to the icon of the Kazan Mother of God);
  • private (when a person reads the words alone);
  • it can also be spoken or read mentally.

In Christianity, however, as in many religions, prayer is an integral part of the spiritual life of a true believer. With its help, everyone can appeal to God's power and receive support for further actions or an indication of the right direction.

The sacred books contain a large number of prayer texts in verse and prose, which are used today for various services. By reading these spiritual sources of wisdom, you will receive answers to many important issues, you will feel good and calm, you will receive support in difficult situations. As the saying goes folk wisdom: "If you don't know what to do, pray!"

Rules for reading prayers

Since we most of all belong to Christianity, Orthodox prayers will have the greatest power on our earth. However, for a believer there are no territorial boundaries, since he can communicate with God at any point in space and even in any dimension. At the same time, the church has established certain rules according to which it is necessary to read these special texts.

First of all, you need to say a prayer while standing. Your face should be turned to the east - to where the sun rises. Women must cover their heads and have decent clothing (for public prayers).

Sacred texts call on believers to pray constantly, so this can be done at any time of the day and in front of any icon (for example, the icon of Our Lady of Kazan is believed to have great power). With today's pace of life, a special rule has been created, according to which it is enough to pray three times a day (morning-afternoon-evening).

It is obligatory to attend Sunday services (public services in the Temple) to receive grace. Also, you can always come to the church when you feel the need, because the doors of this special place are always open to everyone.

Features of home prayer

Any prayer must be prepared. To begin with, it is worth reading carefully the text of prayers for children. Every word you utter must be understood. It must come not only from your mouth, but also from your heart. It is advisable to memorize all the main prayers so as not to stumble while reading them.

Before you start praying, try to banish from your heart all resentment and any bitterness that is present in it. If you want to see goodness from God, you must feel for yourself what it is like to be kind.

Before the beginning of the prayer, it is necessary to retire, light a lamp and stand in front of the icons. You can say the text of prayers, both alone and with the whole family. Such family reading is a form of public prayer, but in no way replaces individual prayer.

To begin with, overshadow yourself with the sign of the cross and make a few bows from the waist or the earth. After that, try to tune in to inner communication with God. In silence, you should come to realize the importance of the ceremony being performed.

Having made all the preparations, you can stand in front of the icon and begin reading prayers. At the same time, it is important to clearly pronounce each word, delving into its essence not only with the mind, but also with the heart. An important principle of any prayer, including prayers for children, is the ability to understand and feel the sacred text. Only such an attitude to spoken words guarantees a positive result. For example, in asking for cleansing from filth, one should feel this filth in oneself and truly desire deliverance from it. And praying for love, try to find it in yourself and understand what exactly you expect from your request.

Also, while praying, you need to be very focused. It is believed that one who reads the text absently and inattentively will not be heard by the Lord. The human mind is constantly busy with something, so you need to be prepared for the fact that you can be distracted. At such moments, try to focus even more on the process and bring your thoughts to a calm state.

You don't have to look at your watch all the time, so get into a position where you can stay in it long enough. If it is difficult for you to evoke in yourself the sensations and feelings that are mentioned in the text of the prayer, then try to read the prayers throughout the day in order to penetrate into their meaning. It is not recommended to read common prayers a lot and in a row. It is better to interrupt them with a personal appeal to God.

Priests recommend not only praying (reading the text established in a certain order), but also talking to God in your own words. So you can tell the Lord about your aspirations, troubles and joys. Communication with God must be carried out constantly in order to maintain a sufficient level of your connection. The stronger it is, the better the result of your prayers will be.

To the question “Is it possible to pray to God in your own words?” many Holy Fathers answer in the affirmative. Indeed, today not only those texts that exist in Holy Scripture are widespread, but also those that were spoken by some Holy Fathers. Over time, they have become a habitual prayer for many.

It is important to remember that prayer is a work in which four main components must necessarily participate: feelings, will, mind and body.

In order for the words uttered by a person to bring him what he wants in the future, then purity of heart must be supplemented by the depth of personal faith and the experience of all spiritual life. Under such conditions, the power of prayer will increase many times over.

Mother's prayer is one of the most powerful

There are several parables about how strong motherly prayers are. In this case, it is important to believe in what you are doing and ask God for help in protecting your children from possible misfortunes.

The more your children need help (sick, turned off the right path, cursed), the more fervently you need to pray. This is explained as follows:

God takes care of his children and even with all our evil or simply bad deeds, he does not turn away from us. So we should constantly think and pray about our children, forgiving them their transgressions.

Heading along an unrighteous path, the child, after he grows up, will live his life, meet God and answer to the Almighty on his own. But for the fact that the mother curses the child, even if his behavior is unacceptable, the mother has to answer. After all, raising a child is a big responsibility, and when you are going to bring him into this world, you must be ready to take it upon yourself. And if something does not work out in the life of your children, then this is your fault. You need to start praying more earnestly for the child and for yourself.

Who needs to pray for children?

In order for the prayer to have the greatest power, it is necessary to turn to a specific icon. There are some recommendations on who and when it is better to pray (for example, the Kazan Mother of God is addressed when a person needs intercession in difficult times).

Prayers before the images of Jesus Christ and the Mother of God are considered the strongest. Moreover, you can refer to any icon in prose or verse, which depicts Our Lord or the Queen of Heaven. The Mother of God is considered the patroness of women and motherhood, therefore most of all and most often they turn to her with prayers for children. Also a special power maternal prayers can give the icon "Jumping the Baby", which is dedicated to motherhood in general.

Mothers of soldiers who serve in hot spots often turn to the Kazan icon. Great commanders always prayed to her, going to war or before the start of the battle. In addition to victory, the Kazan Mother of God was asked to reduce losses and save the lives of soldiers.

Many mothers, seeking to take care of their children and protect them from troubles and misfortunes, turn to the icon of the Sign with Mother of God”, which is one of the most revered in our country.

But the icon "Handmaid of Sinners" is not as popular as the icon of Our Lady of Kazan, but it can become last hope for those who have committed a great sin or need a quick remission of sins (for example, before a complex operation).

The rite of baptism - what is it for?

Often, in order for a child to grow up healthy and have protection from the insidious designs of evil forces, his parents baptize him. Of course, during baptism, the baby does not receive 100% protection, but this improves his health and ability to withstand diseases and negative influences from the outside.

This rite is one of the seven sacraments that are accepted in Orthodox Church. Its essence lies in the fact that during baptism a person, as it were, "dies" for a sinful life and is born again in order to lead a righteous life and receive Salvation. After passing this rite, a person will be able to enter the Kingdom of Heaven.

This action is called a sacrament because the impact of God's power on little man carried out in an invisible, mysterious way. It is obligatory at baptism to give the name of a saint who will protect him throughout life and become his guardian angel. In the future, he will help parents in caring for children, prompt the baby, and then the adult, the right way which will eventually lead his soul to Salvation. Baptize or not? This decision has always been and is for the parents. But for sickly babies, baptism is permissible even immediately after birth, in order to help him adapt to the conditions of this world.

A mother's prayer for her child

Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, prayers for the sake of Your Most Pure Mother, hear me, Your unworthy and sinful servant (your name).

Lord, in Your mercy and in the power of my child (his name), have mercy, I ask, and save him for the sake of Your name.

Lord, I pray, forgive all the sins he committed, voluntarily or involuntarily, before You.

Lord, guide him on the true path, consisting of Your commandments, and admonish him and enlighten him with the light of Christ, for the salvation of his soul and healing body.

Lord, bless him in his house and around the house, and in the field and during work, and on the road and in every place of Your possession.

Lord, save him under Your Holy Protection from a flying bullet, an accurate arrow, a sharp knife, a long sword, a strong poison, a hot fire, an uncontrollable flood, from a deadly ulcer and from a vain death.

Lord, protect him from all enemies, visible and invisible, from all sorts of troubles, evil and misfortunes.

Lord, I pray to heal him of various diseases, cleanse him of all filth (tobacco, wine and drugs) and alleviate his mental suffering and sorrow.

Lord, grant him the grace of the Holy Spirit for many years of life and chastity and health.

Lord, give him Your blessing for a pious and happy family life and childbearing.

Lord, give me, sinful and unworthy of Your servant (your name), a parental blessing for my child in the coming morning, day, evening and night, for the sake of Your name, because Your Kingdom is eternal, it is omnipotent and omnipotent. Amen.

Lord, have mercy on me (12 times).

Even unbelieving people sometimes turn to God with a request, because it is not for nothing that they say that there are no atheists in a falling plane. Prayer lightens the soul of a person, directs his thoughts in a positive direction.

It is important for a father and mother to pray regularly for their children, as this increases their protection, enlightens thoughts and minds, helps to accept the right decision and avoid difficult situations.


Why does it work

Parents are united with the child by an inextricable bond. It is especially strong in a baby with a mother, because it is the woman who bears the fetus in herself for 9 months. And although after the birth, the mother is no longer physically connected with the baby, the “thread” is still strong and continues to influence the two at the energy level.

Any thought of the parent has an impact on the child, so it is extremely important not to allow any negative emotions. Harmless words said in the hearts: “Yes, so that it was empty for you!” can negatively affect the fate of a son or daughter. You can’t curse them, predict a bad fate for them or call them names. A mother's prayer is necessary for the normal development of a person.


Prayer for the welfare of the child

In ancient times, people believed that parental blessings had powerful powers. Suffice it to recall the biblical story about the brothers Esau and Jacob. Their mother, Rebekah, loved her youngest son more and wished that it was Jacob who received the sacred parting words of his father. To do this, she had to deceive her eldest child and husband, but in the end she was able to achieve her goal.

This is the strongest and most powerful prayer. They have an impact on a person's life as a whole. Parents ask to protect their children from evil and wrong deeds.

Prayer 1
