The priests say that the prayer to Archangel Michael is a very strong protection and every believer should know it. This prayer is very important when you are overcome by sorrows, troubles and adversity. If everything is falling out of hand and a “dark streak” has come in life, you need to mentally turn your attention to Heavenly Patron and sincerely ask for help.

Since ancient times, believers in Rus' turned to patron saints for help. A daily ritual helps to put your thoughts and feelings in order, gives you the opportunity to turn to the Higher Powers, ask them for advice or intercession. Orthodox believers consider the prayer to Archangel Michael to be a very strong protection. This saint is the leader of the Heavenly Host. According to legend, with a fiery sword he guards the entrance to the Kingdom of Heaven.

Words addressed to God help in difficult times, strengthen the spirit and dispel unnecessary doubts. You can ask for support from any saint, depending on the occasion or situation. Orthodox Christians begin and end their day with prayer. During the day, they accompany many of their actions with prayer words.

Words of protection can be spoken if a difficult decision has to be made; if advice or a sign from above is needed; if your soul is restless; if difficult or even dangerous hours and days lie ahead in life. Miracle words have protective properties, they seem to “fence off” the believer from everything bad.

Saint protector Michael in various religious teachings

The image of the heavenly protector Archangel Michael is not only in the Orthodox or Catholic belief traditions. The figure of the intercessor and guardian of heaven exists in both Judaism and Islam. In Judaism, this character is revered as the leader of the Lord's army, is the main guard of the Light and fights the numerous Dark Army. According to the Jews, Michael is one of the four angels who guard the cardinal points and are under the throne of the Lord.

In Islam, this saint also plays an important role. According to this teaching, Saint Michael (Mikail) has the ability to fill people’s hearts with goodness, giving them blessed thoughts and peace of mind in life.

IN Christian tradition this Archangel is depicted with a fiery sword and wings behind his back. The warrior fights against the dark forces that send evil, illness and suffering to man. With his fiery sword he punishes sinners and drives away evil spirits. Therefore, people turn to him in case of illness, which, according to belief, is sent by evil spirits.

The saint needs a fiery sword to guard the gates of heaven. According to Scripture, this angel will be present at the Last Judgment, because he is the patron and protector of all souls of the dead.

On the day of Archangel Michael, who is the main intercessor of sinners on earth, Orthodox tradition is considered September 19th. On this day it is customary to remember the miracle in Khoneh.

The miracle is that Michael split the rock with a blow of his staff and two fast mountain rivers headed along a new channel without touching the Christian sanctuary. Catholic Church celebrates the day of this saint on September 29.

Among the famous historical figures, who was patronized by the Heavenly Warrior, can be called the famous Joan of Arc. According to legend, the Archangel appeared to the Maid of Orleans and gave her instructions to place Charles VII on the throne. Throughout her difficult military journey, Mikhail supported brave girl and protected her from all sorts of troubles so that she could fulfill God’s providence and fulfill her great mission.

In what cases can you turn to Archangel Michael for help?

Higher powers protect and protect even if we do not believe in their existence, so prayer to Archangel Michael is a very strong protection. The saint patronizes everyone, even those who are skeptical about faith and religion. Even an unbeliever or an atheist can turn to him and ask for help.

There are times in everyone’s life when they alone cannot cope with certain problems, when it is necessary to strengthen their spirit, to confirm the correctness of the chosen path, when trouble comes to the house or something bad happens.

It is difficult to list all the situations in which one can seek the intercession of Archangel Michael, here are just a few of them:

• Ask for deliverance from enemies and fears, prosperity and peace.
• About the recovery of loved ones from a serious illness.
• Rely on consolation in grief and protection from grief.
• The Archangel gives protection from wars, natural disasters and destruction.
• Helps solve problems in the family, at work, in business.

There are many sorrows in our life. Left alone with a problem, a person becomes lost and plunges into the abyss of grief. The death of loved ones is especially difficult to bear. The Heavenly Intercessors can help in such a situation. In Orthodoxy there are traditions of commemorating the dead. Every believer must order a prayer service for the repose of the soul of a newly deceased person. You can pray for the soul of someone who has gone to another world yourself. To do this, you need to find the necessary words in the prayer book and read them in accordance with church canons.

“Remember, O Lord our God, in the faith and hope of the life of your eternally departed * servant, our brother (name), and as the Good and Lover of mankind, forgiving sins and consuming iniquities, weaken, forsake and forgive all his voluntary and involuntary sins, deliver him eternal torment and the fire of Gehenna, and grant him the communion and enjoyment of Your eternal good things, prepared for those who love You: even if you sin, do not depart from You, and undoubtedly in the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, Your glorified God in the Trinity, faith, and Unity in Trinity and Trinity in Unity is Orthodox even until its last breath of confession. Be merciful to him, and the faith that is in You, instead of deeds, and rest with Your saints, as you are Generous: for there is no man who will live and not sin, but You are the only One besides all sin, and Your truth is righteousness forever, and You are the One God of mercy and generosity, and love for mankind, and to You we send glory, to the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen".

Troparion and Akathist - an alternative to daily prayer to the Archangel

Canons and troparia are also read to Michael.

Troparion to Michael

Heavenly armies of the Archangel, we always pray to you, unworthy, and with your prayers protect us with the shelter of the krill of your immaterial glory, preserving us, who fall diligently and cry out: deliver us from troubles, like the commander of the highest powers.

Kontakion to Archangel Michael

Archangel of God, servant of the Divine glory, ruler of angels and teacher of men, ask for what is useful to us and great mercy, like the bodiless Archangel.”

There is also a short version, the text of which can be said every day in the morning before starting any important task.

“O Saint Michael the Archangel, have mercy on us sinners who demand your intercession, save us, servants of God (names), from all visible and invisible enemies, and moreover, strengthen us from mortal horror and from the embarrassment of the devil, and grant us the right to shamelessly present ourselves to our Creator at the hour His terrible and righteous Judgment. O all-holy, great Michael the Archangel! Do not despise us sinners who pray to you for help and your intercession in this world and in the future, but grant us there together with you to glorify the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit forever and ever.”

Who can ask for help

Archangel Michael is a protector for absolutely everyone. This great guardian He does not see differences in nationality or religion, and is ready to help everyone who turns to him for support. The only condition is the sincerity and openness of the soul of the person praying. Woman, man, child - the Archangel does not care about age or gender. He is a patron.

Patron Saints. Who else can you contact for help?

Not only Archangel Michael can help a person in difficult situation. Orthodox Saints will come to our aid and protect us from damage, the evil eye, protect us from the influence of dark forces and strengthen our spirit.

Nicholas the Wonderworker is a very powerful Saint. People turn to him with personal requests.

• They ask for healing from a fatal illness or for the health of an unborn child.
• They pray to Nicholas with a request to send down love and arrange his personal life.
• If a person goes on a long journey, he should ask for protection and help from this saint.
• If there are financial problems in the house, then St. Nicholas the Wonderworker will help.
• Nikolai is asked to help find a good job. It also accompanies success in trading.
• The miracle worker helps those illegally punished and convicted without guilt.
• This Saint is traditionally prayed to for the fulfillment of every desire.
• If you are overcome by demons, doubts, or are under the influence of dark forces, then you should turn to Nikolai.
• Nikolai Ugodnik is known for helping to drive out all kinds of evil spirits.

If there is a suspicion that a believer has become a victim of witchcraft, or the influence of a witch’s spell, then one must, without delay, turn to this Saint.

To remove damage and get rid of witchcraft, you can also read Psalm No. 3. In the Orthodox tradition, he is considered one of the most powerful.

1:1. Psalm of David when he fled from Absalom his son.

1:2. God! how my enemies have multiplied! Many

rebel against me

1:3. Many say to my soul: “He has no salvation in God.”

1:4. But You, Lord, are a shield before me, my glory, and

You lift up my head.

1:5. With my voice I cry to the Lord, and He hears me

from His holy mountain.

1:6. I lie down, sleep and get up, for the Lord protects me.

1:7. I will not be afraid of those people who are on all sides

turned on me.

1:8. Arise, Lord! save me, my God! for

You strike all my enemies on the cheek;

you break the teeth of the wicked.

1:9. Salvation is from the Lord. Upon Your people is Your blessing.

Therefore, no matter what need we come to church for, St. Nicholas the Wonderworker definitely needs to put a candle near his image. And so that the words addressed to heaven gain even greater power, the holy fathers advise lighting candles not only near the image of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker, but also Jesus Christ and the Mother of God. It is not necessary to pronounce “canonically correct” phrases. In appealing to intercessors, the main thing is sincere and indestructible Faith, and every believer in his home must have an icon depicting this Holy Face. The image of the Heavenly Intercessor is the strongest amulet.

Prayers addressed to the Queen of Heaven have no less effect. The Mother of God patronizes all those who suffer and refuses no one.

• A petition to the Mother of God helps if a child is sick.
• They turn to her, asking for intercession before God.
• In case of marital quarrels or infidelity, you also need to ask for protection from the Queen of Heaven.
• If you are in poor health or have a complex operation ahead.
• They pray to the Mother of God for the health of relatives and the deliverance of women from infertility.

In Orthodox prayer books there are daily prayers with which you can turn to the Mother of God, and there are also solemn addresses that are read on holidays. You can pray to the Virgin Mary both at home and when you come to church.

A prayer addressed to the Guardian Angel also helps protect us from troubles that await us at every step. We all have an Angel who helps us in difficult times.

The appeal to the guardian angel is allowed to be very brief. If a person has a difficult task, a serious conversation or dangerous situation, it’s enough to say the following: “My angel, fly with me. You go ahead, I'll follow you."

Words addressed to one’s Saint, after whom the parishioner is named, also have strong protective properties.

“Oh, holy angel, interceding before our Creator for my soul, my body and my life! Do not leave me and do not depart from me for all my sins. I ask you, do not let the evil demon take possession of my soul and my body. Strengthen my soul and direct it to the true path. I ask you, angel of God and guardian of my soul, forgive me all the sins with which I have offended you throughout my unrighteous life. Forgive all my sins that I committed on the past day, and protect me on the new day. Save my soul from various temptations, so that I do not anger our Creator. I ask you, pray for me before our Creator, so that His mercy and peace of mind may come to me. Amen".

Icons and images of saints. Their role in our lives

Orthodox priests advise believers to always carry with them an image of their patron, or an icon on a chain. This item is powerful talisman for all occasions. The icon can contain either an image of the Mother of God, Archangel Michael, or other Saints.

Pectoral cross and an icon depicting an angel or saint must be worn exclusively under clothing - this is the only way their protection will operate. If a person feels that he is being overcome by envious people, or that some kind of conspiracy is brewing against him, then it is enough to mentally turn to his patrons and secretly touch his talismans under his clothes.

There should be icons in the home of every believer. It is not necessary to create a “red corner” in your apartment and put them on display. It is enough to keep one or two images at home and quietly pray in front of them.

It is not forbidden to light lamps and candles under the icon. The smell of incense and the flame of a candle help drive out evil spirits from the house and improve the energy field of the home.

It is advisable to have in the house and church calendar. With its help, the neophyte will be able to navigate holidays and memorable dates.

Famous icons. Luka Krymsky

IN Orthodox world The icon of St. Luke of Crimea is especially revered. It is customary to turn to this saint and his image for help in healing various kinds of illnesses, both physical and mental. It helps treat physical ailments. There is a special prayer to Luka Krymsky, which must be read if surgery is to be performed.

Cyprian and Justina

There are prayers and amulets from visible enemies, and there are those that protect us from the influence of witchcraft. The protective prayer to Saints Cyprian and Justina is read in the following cases:

• If there is a suspicion that a person or his loved ones have been damaged or have committed such a sinful act as a love spell.
• If there is an invisible danger, including from dark forces.
• If demons and their henchmen begin to play pranks in the house and do not allow you to live in peace.
• If a person is worried about bad predictions and omens that have appeared in his life.

You can order a service in any church. Come there, find a box for storing candles and put a note in it with the name of the people for whom you will pray. You must also indicate the name of the Saint to whom the request is made.

How to pray and what you need for prayer

In order for the words of prayer to be heard by the Higher Powers, you need to not just ask them for protection. The ritual of prayer is a special action for which you need to prepare, set yourself in a good mood, and put your thoughts and feelings in order. A prayerful attitude is necessary regardless of what request we make to God and his helpers. The Lord will hear and accept our words only if they come from the heart.

There is no need to boast of your virtue in front of others - such behavior is regarded as a temptation of the devil and should be feared. True faith is quiet and calm. There is no place in it for vanity or for violence against the foundations and habits of others. If a person holds a fast, and his family does not support this endeavor, then one cannot force his loved ones to act against their wishes. People come to faith without violence against the individual. But you need to remember that:

• You can pray like church cathedral, and at home. It does not matter where the layman pronounces these words.
• If a person is going to say a prayer at home, then it is advisable to retire. No one and nothing should distract a layman from communication with God.
• If there is little time for prayer, then you can limit yourself to a short version. Do not pronounce sacred words in a hurry.
• If a person decides to pray on the road or while traveling, then to perform the sacrament you need to turn your gaze inward and turn away from external vanity.
• You should ask for protection not only for yourself, but also for your relatives (that is, all relatives and family members). There is a separate prayer for this case.

Orthodox Christian I must remember the main thing - prayer is not only a request, but also words of gratitude. Only sincere gratitude for everything that happens to us will find a response in Heaven, because our “thank you” becomes an integral part of prayer.

Archangels are the supreme angels, who are God's highest creatures. A strong prayer to the archangels will help you overcome any life obstacles and difficulties.

The main archangel in Orthodox Christianity Michael is considered to be. Previously, we wrote about a strong prayer to Archangel Michael, which has been known since ancient times. It will help you ask God for mercy and give you faith and hope. Michael is the main messenger of Heaven, so many people pray to him and not to anyone else, believing that the connection between Archangel Michael and the Father, Son and Holy Spirit is the closest.

History of the Archangels

Angels are the heavenly army that protects the light from the invasion of evil and devilish power. Archangels are the highest creatures of God who keep order both on Earth and in Heaven. There are eight main angels in Orthodox Christianity: Michael, Gabriel, Raphael, Uriel, Selafiel, Jehudiel, Barachiel, Jeremiel. The supreme one is the Archangel Michael - the head of all the angelic creatures of God. It is he who will call all people to Last Judgment. The remaining Archangels will sit next to the Son of God.

Of all the archangels, only Michael and Gabriel appeared to people in the guise of a person. Michael performed miracles, and Gabriel was a messenger who conveyed God's messages to people. Jeremiel is also sometimes sent down by God - in order to return a person to the true path. Uriel enlightens the minds of people, giving them important revelations. Jehudiel rewards people for glorifying God and for good deeds. Selafiel's task is to awaken in people the desire to pray. Barachiel sends God's blessing to people who plan good deeds. Raphael is an archangel who heals human ailments.

As you can see, each of them has its own task, which is performed only in relation to the worthy. This proves the importance of praying to all the archangels, since their work keeps our world in balance. Special responsibilities are assigned to angels by God himself, and this is done to maintain balance in the world. In Orthodoxy, the archangels are given a special holiday on November 21 - the Council of the Archangel Michael. On this day, it is customary to read prayers for the salvation of the soul and visit an Orthodox church.

Great Michael the Archangel, do not deprive us of your attention, sinful slaves who pray to you and other archangels for your help and intercession now and in the future. Help us together with you to glorify the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit forever and ever. Amen.

Only Michael is mentioned here, since according to all the rules it is necessary to conduct a dialogue with him in the face of all the archangels, for he is God’s main assistant, monitoring everything that happens around us.

It is necessary to pray to the archangels and Archangel Michael not only on holidays, but also at least once a day.

Illuminate our minds with the light of God’s face, which shines on your lightning-like brow, so that we can understand that God’s will for us is good and perfect, and that we know all that it is fitting for us to do and that which we should despise and abandon. Strengthen our weak will and weak will with the grace of the Lord, so that, having established ourselves in the law of the Lord, we will cease to be dominated by earthly thoughts and the lusts of the flesh, carried away in the likeness of senseless children by the soon-to-perish beauties of this world, as if for the sake of the corruptible and earthly it is foolish to forget the eternal and heavenly. For all of these, ask us from above for the spirit of true repentance, unfeigned sadness for God and contrition for our sins, so that we may spend the remaining number of days of our temporary life not in pleasing our feelings and working with our passions, but in erasing the evils we have committed with tears of faith and contrition of heart, deeds of purity and holy deeds of mercy.
