About healing

O Heavenly citizen of Jerusalem, Rev. Father Sergius! Look upon us mercifully and lead those who are devoted to the earth to the heights of Heaven. You are a mountain in Heaven; We, on the earth below, are removed from you not only by place, but by our sins and iniquities; but to you, as our kin, we resort and cry: teach us to walk in your way, enlighten us and guide us. It is characteristic of you, Our Father, to be compassionate and to love mankind: living on earth, you should not only care about your own salvation, but also about all those who come to you. Your instructions were with the reed of a scribe, a cursive writer, who inscribes the verbs of life on everyone’s heart. You did not only heal bodily illnesses, but more than spiritual ones, you appeared as an graceful physician; and your whole holy life will be a mirror of every virtue. Even if you were so much holy than God on earth, how much more are you now in Heaven!

Today you stand before the Throne of the Unapproachable Light and in it, like in a mirror, see all our needs and petitions; You are together with the Angels, rejoicing over the one sinner who repents. And God’s love for mankind is inexhaustible, and your boldness towards Him is great; do not stop crying to the Lord for us. By your intercession, ask from our All-Merciful God the peace of His Church, under the sign of the militant cross, agreement in faith and unity of wisdom, destruction of vanity and schism, confirmation in good deeds, healing for the sick, consolation for the sad, intercession for the offended, help for the needy. Do not disgrace us, who come to you with faith. Even though we are unworthy of such a father and intercessor, you, being an imitator of God’s love for mankind, make us worthy by turning from evil deeds to good living. All God-enlightened Russia, filled with your miracles and blessed by your mercies, confesses that you are their patron and intercessor. Show your ancient mercies and those whom your father helped, do not reject us, their children, who are marching towards you in their footsteps.

We believe that you are present with us in spirit. Where the Lord is, as His word teaches us, there His servant will be. You are a faithful servant of the Lord, and I exist everywhere with God, you are in Him, and He is in you, and moreover, you are with us in body. Behold your incorruptible and life-giving relics, like a priceless treasure, may God grant us miracles. Before them, as you live on dry land, we fall down and pray: accept our prayers and offer them on the altar of God’s mercy, so that we may receive grace from you and timely help in our needs. Strengthen our cowardice and confirm us in faith, so that we undoubtedly hope to receive all the good things from the mercy of the Master through your prayers. Do not cease to rule your spiritual flock, gathered by you, with the rod of spiritual wisdom: help those who struggle, raise up the weakened, hasten to bear the yoke of Christ in complacency and patience, and guide us all in peace and repentance, end our life and settle with hope in the blessed bosom of Abraham, where You now rest joyfully after your labors and struggles, glorifying God with all the saints, glorified in the Trinity, the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.

Church is a place where everyone can find themselves and the path of life, choose the right path. Believers come to talk with God and turn to the Holy Great Martyrs for help. So dozens of people come to the face of St. Sergius of Radonezh every day.

In every life situation, in difficulties and problems, it is customary to address prayerful words to a specific patron. So, a petition to Saint Sergius will help:

• Get good grades in exams or regular knowledge tests;
• Get rid of pride;
• Helps in healing the human soul and body;
• Find a decent job with high earnings.

No matter what request you come with, His Holiness will not leave you alone with troubles and illnesses. But only in each individual case is it necessary to know certain prayers. Which ones exactly, you will find out after reading the article.

Prayer to Sergius of Radonezh for help in studies

Nowadays, education is valued in modern society. Every person must receive secondary education - master literacy, reading, and mathematics.

If possible, many try to graduate from higher education. For some, studying is easy, but for others, it is necessary to make significant efforts to achieve results in various branches of science. Many people give up everything as soon as they start, leaving it to chance, but those who care about their destiny try to achieve high results in a variety of ways.

Orthodox Christians very often turn to Saint Sergius of Radonezh. The requests of believers are always heard; Saint Sergius never leaves people who turn to him.

Why do students rely so much on the support of the Saint? The answer can be found by studying the facts of his life a little.

Science was difficult for the Reverend; he could not bring himself to sit down with books. But after reading the prayer, a real miracle happened to him. Sergius began to read with eagerness and desire, he began to understand and remember. Faith in God and the power of the spirit helped the Saint achieve high results, so he always helps people who sincerely believe in the power of the holy petition.

Prayer for passing an exam is suitable for both schoolchildren and students. After all, no one will say that the examination test at school is less important than at the university.

Before studying and exams, you can ask the Holy Patron for support, but do not forget that everything depends largely on you. Without learning the material, no amount of prayer, unfortunately, will force the teacher to give you an excellent grade. A prayer to Sergius of Radonizh before the exam will give strength and confidence in your knowledge.

Mothers and grandmothers can ask for their children to successfully pass the exam, but this does not make the prayer any less effective. These are the words you should use:

“O venerable and God-bearing Father Sergius! Look upon us (names) mercifully and, those who are devoted to the earth, lead us to the heights of heaven. Strengthen our cowardice and confirm us in faith, so that we undoubtedly hope to receive all the good things from the mercy of the Lord God through your prayers. By your intercession, ask for every gift that is useful to everyone and for everyone, and through your prayers that help us, grant us all, on the day of the Last Judgment, to be delivered from the last part, and the right hand of the country to be partakers of life and to hear the blessed voice of the Lord Christ: come, blessed of My Father, inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world . Amen".

But you can ask Radonezhsky for help not only in passing exams, but also in successfully defending your diploma, because at this moment you also need support, since your future fate is being decided.

The saint does not leave even during the normal educational process. If, for example, a child is not given one subject, or even several, then the parents can ask the Reverend to add intelligence to their child. And this is what the request looks like:

“Oh, sacred head, reverend and God-bearing Father Sergius, by your prayer, and by faith and love, even for God, and by the purity of your heart, you have settled your soul on earth in the monastery of the Most Holy Trinity, and have been granted angelic communion and the visitation of the Most Holy Theotokos, and the gift of miraculous grace received, after your departure from the earthly, especially closer to God and the heavenly powers, but not retreating from us with the spirit of your love, and your honest power, like a vessel of grace full and overflowing, left to us!

Having great boldness towards the All-Merciful Master, pray to save His servants, His grace existing in you, believing and flowing to you with love. Ask us from our Greatly Gifted God every gift that is useful to everyone and everyone: observance of the immaculate faith, establishment of our cities, peace, pacification, deliverance from famine and destruction, preservation from the invasion of foreigners, consolation for the grieving, healing for the sick, restoration for the fallen, for those who are led astray on the path of truth and return of salvation, strengthening for those who struggle, prosperity and blessing for those who do good in good deeds, upbringing of infants, instruction for the young, admonition for the ignorant, intercession for orphans and widows, departing from this temporary life for the eternal, good preparation and parting words, blessed rest for those departed, and all of us assisted by your prayers vouchsafe on the day of the Last Judgment to be delivered from this part, and to be part of the right hand of the country and to hear the blessed voice of the Lord Christ: “Come, blessed of My Father, inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.” Amen".

Prayer from pride to Sergius of Radonezh

Pride is one of the most serious sins of man. When it absorbs people, it is very difficult not only to live with them, but also to intersect with them at certain moments. If you notice that this feeling is emerging in you or your family, then read this prayer:

“O venerable and God-bearing Father Sergius! Look upon us (names) mercifully and, those who are devoted to the earth, lead us to the heights of heaven. Strengthen our cowardice and confirm us in faith, so that we undoubtedly hope to receive all the good things from the mercy of the Lord God through your prayers.

Amen."

• About the recovery of hopelessly ill patients;
• About the health and long life of family and friends.

Do not disgrace us, who come to you with faith. Even though you are unworthy of such a father and intercessor, you, an imitator of God’s love for mankind, made us worthy by turning from evil deeds to good living. All God-enlightened Russia, filled with your miracles and blessed by your mercies, confesses you to be their patron and intercessor.

You are a faithful servant of the Lord, and I exist everywhere with God, you are in Him, and He is in you, and moreover, you are with us in body.

Before them, as I live for you, we fall down and pray: accept our prayers and offer them on the altar of God’s mercy, so that we may receive grace from you and timely help in our needs. Strengthen us, the faint-hearted, and confirm us in the faith, so that we undoubtedly hope to receive all the good things from the mercy of the Master through your prayers.

Do not cease to rule your spiritual flock, gathered by you, with the rod of spiritual wisdom: help those who struggle, raise up the weakened, hasten to bear the yoke of Christ in complacency and patience, and guide us all in peace and repentance, end our lives and settle with hope in the blessed bosom of Abraham, where you now rest joyfully after your labors and struggles, glorifying with all the saints God, glorified in the Trinity, the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

7. 

Saint Sergius of Radonezh is the patron saint of warriors and students. Soldiers who are facing a difficult battle can ask for favors, students before exams, as well as those for whom studying is difficult; Sergius will not leave people praying for mental and physical healing.

Prayers for the “Gift of Reason” and “For Healing”

It's hard to believe, but once upon a time people did not strive to understand science. From childhood, young ladies prepared to become wives, and subsequently mothers, since it was believed that a woman is the keeper of the family hearth and her destiny is to take care of the family. Men did hard work or fought in wars from their youth. But parents sought to send their children to primary school so that they could read and write. Not everyone found it easy to study; many were labeled as poor students. In those days, as now, the “weak” student was mocked, mocked by his comrades, scolded by his parents, and teachers even used rods in the teaching process.

Sergius of Radonezh was an outcast at school. He was not given a diploma. And somehow he met an angel on the way, knelt before him, asked for help, after which a miracle happened - Bartholomew instantly began to read and understand the contents of any books.

If your child finds it extremely difficult to study, read a prayer for the gift of reason for learning.

“O Venerable Sergius of Radonezh! Forgive us our sins, voluntary and involuntary! O Venerable Sergius of Radonezh, hear my prayer, I ask you with all my heart, help the servant of God/servant of God (Name) to pass difficult studies. Send confidence and clarity of mind, intelligence and attention. Help me collect my thoughts. I trust in your mercy, help the servant of God/servant of God (Name). Grant help in all matters, send good luck. Protect. Deliver us with your prayers from all troubles and misfortunes, do not leave us for sins. Venerable Sergius of Radonezh! In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit! Amen. Amen. Amen"

Prayer to Sergius of Radonezh to help students is effective when passing difficult exams.

“O reverence and God-bearing Father Sergius! Look upon us (names) mercifully and, those who are devoted to the earth, lead us to the heights of heaven. Strengthen our cowardice and confirm us in faith, so that we undoubtedly hope to receive all the good things from the mercy of the Lord God through your prayers. Ask through your intercession for every gift that is beneficial to everyone, and through your prayers, grant that on the day of the Last Judgment all of us will be delivered from this part, and the right hands of the country will be common and the blessed voice of the Lord Christ will hear: “Come, blessed of My Father, inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.” Amen"

Most Holy Sergius will not leave people who are mentally and physically sick in trouble.

“Oh, marvelous Sergius of Radonezh, the Most Holy and true Wonderworker of all Rus'! Your prayer strengthened the Armies in battle and gave birth to life-giving springs emanating from the wombs of Mother Earth, strengthen both my Spirit and the Inner Warriors, who are the Lord Jesus, the Presence and the Presence of the Lord Buddha, with miraculous prayers for the fulfillment of God in my entire being and purge all untruths, ever created by me and imprinted with infirmities, illnesses, and suffering lived from my Soul and body. I trust in you, Reverend, do not disdain me, and remember me in your prayers, perform a miracle of true healing for the Glory of our Heavenly Father and the Eternal All-Merciful Mother, for the good of my innermost and divine essence. Amen and Amen"

Radonezh helps everyone who asks for help cordially, openly, sincerely.

Who is Sergius of Radonezh?

The saint saw the light on May 3, 1314. In the village of Varnitsa lived noble boyars Maria and Kirill - righteous, pious people. God rewarded them with three sons. When Mary carried her youngest, Bartholomew, under her heart, the Lord sent her signs that eloquently indicated that the child would devote his life to the Savior.

One of these symbols was the threefold exclamation of a baby in a woman’s womb when reading the Gospel. It is surprising that the sounds were heard not only by the mother, but also by those around her. When the child was born, the parents noticed that on fasting days, he did not drink milk. If Maria ate meat, then her son refused to breastfeed.

The boy was kind, sympathetic, religious, but teaching was difficult. The ridicule hurt him painfully, so he turned to the Lord for help, and soon teachers, classmates and parents could not be amused by the young men.

After the death of Mary and Cyril, Bartholomew and his brother Stefan built a cell in the forest, and then a church, which was soon consecrated. Over time, Bartholomew became a monk, after which he was called Sergius. The saint performed wondrous miracles during his lifetime: he resurrected, healed, and helped soldiers in battles.
One legend says that the victory on the Kulikovo Field was the merit of Radonezh, since before the battle Prince Donskoy came to him and asked for his blessing. Sergius predicted victory for him.

Back in 1408, the Tatars devastated the monastery, taking away icons and everything connected with the Saint. When the monks were building the cathedral, the Wonderworker appeared to one of them and asked to rescue his body from the earth and water. People didn't understand what it meant. But when they began to dig ditches to lay the foundation, they discovered a coffin with an incorrupt body - the relics of Sergius.

How to pray to Saint Sergius?

More than 500 years have passed since the death of Sergius. But thousands of people visit the Saint, asking for help. Marvelous healings take place in a majestic, mysterious forest, where young Bartholomew once lived and prayed to the Lord away from people.

If children study poorly, pray to Sergius of Radonezh.

Before you begin to pray, visit the church and ask for the blessing of the clergyman. Buy candles, an icon, get some water, take a prosphora. Wear a body icon with the image of Sergius.

You need to ask by kneeling before the image of the saint. It is necessary to light a candle and fervently pray to the Wonderworker for help.

But you should not think that without opening books and notes, you will be able to easily get a high score. The Lord helps only those who work hard and want to achieve their goal. The Saint will not help those who are lazy and want to get a good grade through unclean means.

And remember, only sincere prayer will be heard, after which God will grant what you ask for. Don't forget to thank the Lord and Sergius. In this way, you will earn the favor of the Almighty and his assistants.

The path of life is not always an ideal path; there are often thorn bushes and potholes, but with God’s help you can overcome any difficulties encountered and triumph over your problems with dignity.

“O sacred head, reverend and God-bearing Father Sergius, by your prayer, and faith, and love, even for God, and the purity of your heart, you have established your soul on earth in the monastery of the Most Holy Trinity, and been granted angelic communion and the visitation of the Most Holy Theotokos, and the gift of miraculous grace received, after your departure from the earthly, especially closer to God, and the heavenly powers joined, but not retreating from us in the spirit of your love, and your honest power, like a vessel of grace full and overflowing, left to us! Having great boldness towards the All-Merciful Master, pray to save His servants, His grace existing in you, believing and flowing to you with love. Ask us from our Greatly Gifted God every gift that is beneficial to everyone, observance of the immaculate faith, establishment of our cities, peace, deliverance from famine and destruction, preservation from the invasion of foreigners, consolation for the afflicted, healing for the sick, restoration for the fallen, for those who go astray on the path of truth and return of salvation, strengthening for those who strive, prosperity and blessing for those who do good in good deeds, upbringing of infants, instruction for the young, admonition for the ignorant, intercession for orphans and widows, departing from this temporary life for the eternal, good preparation and parting words, blessed rest for those departed, and all of us assisted by your prayers vouchsafe on the day of the Last Judgment to be delivered from this part, and to be partakers of the right hand of the country and to hear that blessed voice of the Lord Christ: come, blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. Amen."

By your intercession, ask from our All-Merciful God the peace of His Church, under the sign of the militant cross, agreement in faith and unity of wisdom, destruction of vanity and schism, confirmation in good deeds, healing for the sick, consolation for the sad, intercession for the offended, help for the needy. Do not disgrace us, who come to you with faith. Even though we are unworthy of such a father and intercessor, you, being an imitator of God’s love for mankind, make us worthy by turning from evil deeds to good living. All God-enlightened Russia, filled with your miracles and blessed by your mercies, confesses that you are their patron and intercessor. Show your ancient mercies and those whom your father helped, do not reject us, their children, who are marching towards you in their footsteps.

We believe that you are present with us in spirit. Where the Lord is, as His word teaches us, there His servant will be. You are a faithful servant of the Lord, and I exist everywhere with God, you are in Him, and He is in you, and moreover, you are with us in body. Behold your incorruptible and life-giving relics, like a priceless treasure, may God grant us miracles. Before them, as you live on dry land, we fall down and pray: accept our prayers and offer them on the altar of God’s mercy, so that we may receive grace from you and timely help in our needs. Strengthen our cowardice and confirm us in faith, so that we undoubtedly hope to receive all the good things from the mercy of the Master through your prayers. Do not cease to rule your spiritual flock, gathered by you, with the rod of spiritual wisdom: help those who struggle, raise up the weakened, hasten to bear the yoke of Christ in complacency and patience, and guide us all in peace and repentance, end our life and settle with hope in the blessed bosom of Abraham, where You now rest joyfully after your labors and struggles, glorifying God with all the saints, glorified in the Trinity, the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen."

Prayer to Sergius of Radonezh for help in work

“O venerable and God-bearing Father Sergei! Look upon us mercifully, and lead us to the heights of heaven, those who are devoted to the earth. Strengthen our cowardice and confirm us in faith, so that we undoubtedly hope to receive all the good things from the mercy of the Lord God through your prayers.

By your intercession, ask for the gift of understanding science and grant all of us, through your prayers (with the help of your prayers), on the day of the Last Judgment, the right parts of the land to be delivered from, and the blessed voice of the Lord Christ to hear: “Come, blessed of My Father, inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from composition of the world." Amen"

Prayer to Sergius of Radonezh for success in business

“O sacred head, reverend father, most blessed Abvo Sergius the Great! Do not completely forget your poor, but remember us in your holy and auspicious prayers to God. Remember your flock, which you yourself shepherded, and do not forget to visit your children. Pray for us, Holy Father, for your spiritual children, as if you have boldness towards the Heavenly King, do not remain silent for us to the Lord and do not despise us, who honor you with faith and love. Remember us, unworthy, at the throne of the Almighty, and do not stop praying for us to Christ God, for the grace has been given to you to pray for us. We do not imagine that you are dead: even though you passed away from us in body, you remain alive even after death. Do not retreat from us in spirit, keeping us from the arrows of the enemy, and all the charms of the devil, and the snares of the devil, our good shepherd; Even though your relics are always visible before our eyes, your holy soul with the angelic hosts, with the disembodied faces, with the Heavenly powers, standing at the throne of the Almighty, rejoices with dignity. Knowing that you are truly alive even after death, we bow down to you and we pray to you, to pray for us to the Almighty God for the benefit of our souls, and to ask for time for repentance, and for the unrestrained transition from earth to Heaven, bitter ordeals, demons, air princes and will be delivered from eternal torment, and to be an heir to the Kingdom of Heaven with all the righteous, who from all eternity have pleased our Lord Jesus Christ, to Him belongs all glory, honor and worship with His Beginning Father and with the Most Holy, and Good, and His Life-giving Spirit, now and ever, and forever and ever. Amen."
