Troparion, tone 2
The memory of the righteous is with praise, but the testimony of the Lord, the Forerunner, is sufficient for you: for you have shown that you are truly and most honest of the prophets, as if you were worthy to baptize the Preached One in the streams. Moreover, having suffered for the truth, rejoicing, you preached the good news to those in hell of God revealed in the flesh, taking away the sin of the world and giving us great mercy
Kontakion, tone 5

Prayer
To the Baptist of Christ, preacher of repentance, do not despise me who repents, but copulating with the heavenly ones, pray to the Lady for me, unworthy, sad, weak and sad, fallen into many troubles, burdened by the stormy thoughts of my mind: for I am a den of evil deeds, by no means have an end to sinful customs; For my mind is nailed down by earthly things. What will I do, I do not know, and to whom will I resort, so that my soul will be saved? Only to you, Saint John, give the same name of grace, as you are before the Lord, according to the Mother of God, greater than all who are born, for you were considered worthy to touch the top of the King Christ, who takes away the sins of the world, the Lamb of God: pray for Him for my sinful soul, so from now on , at the first ten hour, I will bear a good burden and receive compensation with the last.
To her, the Baptist of Christ, the honest Forerunner, the ultimate prophet, the first martyr in grace, the teacher of fasters and hermits, the teacher of purity and the close friend of Christ, I pray to you, I resort to you, do not reject me from your intercession, but raise me up, having fallen into many sins; renew my soul with repentance, as with the second baptism, of which you are the ruler: with baptism you wash away sin, and preach repentance for the cleansing of every bad deed; Cleanse me with the sins of the defiled and force me to enter, even if nothing bad enters, into the Kingdom of Heaven. Amen.
A mother's sigh for her children.
God! To the Creator of all creatures, adding 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 existence, revived them with an immortal soul, revived them through baptism for a life in accordance with Your will, adopted them and accepted them into the bosom of Your Church, Lord! Keep them in a state of grace until the end of their lives; grant them to be partakers of the sacraments of Your covenant; sanctify by Thy truth; may Thy holy name be sanctified in them and through them! Grant me your gracious help in educating them for the glory of Your name and the benefit of your neighbor! Give me methods, patience and strength for this purpose! Teach me to plant in their hearts the root of true wisdom - Thy fear! Illuminate them with the light of Your Wisdom that governs the universe! May they love You with all their souls and thoughts; may they cleave to You with all their hearts and throughout their entire life may they tremble at Your words! Grant me the understanding to convince them that true life consists in keeping your commandments; that work, strengthened by piety, brings serene contentment in this life and ineffable bliss in eternity. Open to them the understanding of Your Law! May they act until the end of their days in the feeling of Your omnipresence! Plant in their hearts horror and disgust from all lawlessness; let them be blameless in your ways; May they always remember that You, All-Good God, are a champion of Your law and righteousness! Keep them in chastity and reverence for Your name! Let them not discredit Your Church by their behavior, but let them live according to its instructions! Inspire them with a desire for useful teaching and make them capable of every good deed! May they acquire a true understanding of those objects whose information is necessary in their condition; may they be enlightened with knowledge beneficial to humanity. God! Manage me to impress with indelible marks on the minds and hearts of my children the fear of partnerships with those who do not know Thy fear, to instill in them every possible distance from any alliance with the lawless. Let them not listen to rotten conversations; Let them not listen to frivolous people; May they not be led astray from Your path by bad examples; May they not be tempted by the fact that sometimes the path of the wicked is successful in this world! Heavenly Father! Grant me the grace to take every possible care to tempt my children with my actions, but, constantly keeping their behavior in mind, to distract them from errors, correct their mistakes, 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 iniquity not destroy their mind and health, may sins not weaken their mental and physical strength. Righteous Judge, who punishes children for the sins of their parents to the third and fourth generation, turn away such punishment from my children, do not punish them for my sins; but sprinkle them with the dew of Your grace, that they may prosper in virtue and holiness, that they may increase in Your favor and in the love of pious people. Father of generosity and all mercy! According to my parental feeling, I would wish for my children every abundance of earthly blessings, I would wish them blessings from the dew of heaven and from the fatness 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 they need in time to acquire a blessed eternity, be merciful to them when they sin before You, do not impute to them the sins of their youth and ignorance, bring their hearts to contrition when they resist the guidance of Your goodness; Punish them and have mercy, directing them to the path pleasing to You, but do not reject them from Your presence! Accept their prayers with favor, grant them success in every good deed; do not turn Your face away from them in the days of their tribulation, lest temptations befall them beyond their strength. Overshadow them with Your mercy, may Your Angel walk with them and save them from all misfortune and evil paths, All-Good God! Make me a mother who rejoices over her children, so that they will be my joy in the days of my life and my support in my old age. Honor me, with trust in Your mercy, to appear with them at Your Last Judgment and with unworthy boldness to say: Here I am and my children whom You gave me, Lord! Yes, together with them glorifying Your ineffable goodness and eternal love, I extol Your Most Holy Name, Father, Son and Holy Soul, forever and ever. Amen.

Any Orthodox family becomes happier if God gives the father and mother a Son; even more joy comes to the house if not one, but several sons are born. A strong Orthodox prayer from a mother for her son will help your child in a difficult situation: in the army and at work, in business and when getting married, in solving problems with health and drunkenness. After all, a mother’s heart cannot remain indifferent to any adversity in her child’s life, and prayer is one of the ways to help!
The Mother’s strong prayer for her Son will help in any difficult situation: in the army, at work, illness, business, marriage and others.
So that the son can withstand all kinds of adversity, and not encounter trouble and grief on his way, the mother puts howl protection over him, constantly praying to God. It is believed that maternal prayer is the most sincere, reverent and, of course, the most powerful prayer, helping children go through life without lowering their heads. After all, there is nothing dearer to a mother than her child, to whom she is absolutely disinterestedly ready to give all known benefits. She is ready to dissolve in her child without a trace and even, if necessary, give her life for him. Therefore, a mother’s heart freezes with terrible pain if she feels that something is wrong with her son: maybe he is sick? Has the fire of joy and happiness gone out in his eyes? Is his fortitude leaving him? To prevent this from happening, mother always turns to God and All Saints with a request to protect her son from all possible troubles. And it is right. After all, as you know, grace will come to the baby only when it is sent by the Almighty, who has heard the mother’s prayer, which is strengthened a hundredfold if pronounced with a bitter tear in the eye. It is then that you can observe a real miracle.
How are maternal prayers read?
As all believers know, if there is a strong desire or need to pray, there is no need to wait for a special day or look for some unusual place where a mother could make an appeal to God for the benefit of her son. Orthodox maternal prayer will be heard any day, at any time of the day. Some believe that this sacrament requires a “praying” place, that is, you must definitely go to a temple or church. But this is not a strict rule; the one who prays will be heard by the Almighty even when she turns to the Higher Powers, for example, from home or asks to help her son while walking down the street.
There are special rules only when reading a prayer for the journey; the mother pronounces a request to the Lord to save and preserve her child immediately before the departure of her son or daughter.
There is a certain sequence of actions in prayers, so, before starting to turn to God, you need to cross yourself three times and bow in bow. And then, read the psalm; here it is important not to forget to indicate the name of the child. This should be done by looking at church candles, which must burn near the icons of the Saints or in front of the face of God. At the end of the sacrament, you must make the sign of the cross three times.
Who do they pray to for the well-being of children?
Believers know a huge number of prayers and psalms, among which a large section of prayers for their son is clearly expressed. Most often, mothers read an appeal to the Mother of God, where they pray to the Mother of God to protect their children from sorrows and misfortunes, illnesses and other troubles.

Let him be cleansed of excessive cravings, and his soul in the world will not become bad. Thy will be done. In the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Amen.
Blessed Elder, Matrona of Moscow. In a bitter cup, the son found oblivion; he left Christ for bitter destruction. I beg you, take away the trouble quickly, so that he does not feel a strong need. Thy will be done. In the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Amen.
Nicholas the Wonderworker, Pleasant of God. My child dies in sickening drunkenness; he doesn’t understand what his soul is doing. Drive away the craving for alcohol from your son, strengthen his weakened will. Let it be so. In the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Amen.
Prayer to Nicholas the Wonderworker “from prison”
And it also happens that the son turned away from the righteous path, but ended up in prison for his sins. And then prayer will come to the rescue again, which a caring mother will suggest to her unfortunate son, no matter what.
“Oh, great wonderworker and servant of Christ, Saint Father Nicholas! You, the quick helper and gracious intercessor of all who call upon you, especially those in mortal troubles.
You showed such miracles of mercy in the days of your life. When, after your death, you appeared before the Throne of God, no one can count your mercies, even if you had many languages.
You keep those floating on the waters; You saved many drowning people. You keep them on the road, which were caught by the winds, great snow, fierce frost, and heavy rain.
You protect houses and estates from being set on fire by evil-minded people and from ultimate burning. You protect creatures on the way from the attacks of evildoers.
You help the poor and wretched, deliver them from extreme despondency and fall from grace, for the sake of poverty.
You stand up for the innocent from slander and unjust condemnation. You saved from death three men who were imprisoned and who were to be cut with the sword.
So, you have been given the great grace from God to pray for people and save those in trouble! You have also become famous for your help among the infidel Hagarites.
Can’t you just help me, unfortunate and needy, even if I myself have prepared this lot for myself? Intercede for me from the despondency and despair that surrounds me in evil.
Oh, great saint Nicholas! You yourself suffered imprisonment in prison for the holy faith and, like a zealous shepherd of Christ, you yourself knew how difficult it is to be deprived of freedom and to remain in chains.
Since you have helped many who pray to you in prison! Make this misfortune easier for me, who is sitting in prison. Grant me to soon see the end of my prison stay and receive freedom - not for the sake of continuing my sins, but for the sake of correcting my life!
Pray earnestly for this too, that we may be delivered from eternal prison, that with your help we may be saved, I glorify God, wondrous in His saints, amen.”
Prayer to Jesus Christ “for all occasions”
Of course, there are also maternal prayers that are considered to be amulets, as they say, for all occasions. So to speak, universal, allowing you to protect your son comprehensively. It is customary to read such prayers several times a day, regardless of the time of day. Usually this is done by true believing mothers, who do not forget to ask the Higher Powers for help in protecting their son and say words of gratitude to the Lord for all the blessings.
“Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God.
Grant my son good health, reason and will, strength and spirit.
Protect him from harmful influences and guide him on the path leading to Orthodoxy.
Thy will be done. Amen."
Conclusion
Without exaggeration, we can say that a child is more precious to a mother than life, whom she cherishes like the apple of her eye. And the Lord God helps in this, who, without a doubt, watches over all the children in this world. Thanks to the Almighty, his daughters and sons are protected from earthly troubles, from troubles, suffering and illness. And this is called nothing other than God’s Grace, which is sent by the Lord to every child at his birth. And the mother has the power to preserve this grace for as long as possible, and she can do this only by constantly praying fervently.
It’s not for nothing that many centuries ago people introduced into use the concept of “daddy’s girl.” It is no secret that at the birth of a girl, the mothers are also incredibly happy, seeing in this little “blood” a complete copy of themselves. But mothers treat their sons with special reverence, since they see in these young men their protectors, helpers and support in old age. But, placing such responsibility on their child, mothers never forget to take care of their sons themselves, keeping them in peace, protecting them from earthly adversities and doing their best to protect them from unkind people.
Miraculous words: a very powerful prayer for children in full description from all the sources we found.
Whether we have a small child or an adult, if he is often sick or you are simply worried about him, or maybe everything is fine and you just want your child to be happy, then in these and other cases you, as an Orthodox person, can pray.
You can pray in your own words or prayers from the prayer book.

The power of a mother's prayer
A mother’s heart “hurts” because of childhood problems, even when the child grows up and is somewhere far away. The Almighty and His saints do not remain indifferent when loving mothers ask them for help.
A mother's prayer for a sick child saves even when doctors are powerless to help.
A mother's faith is a great strength! Her appeal to the Heavenly Powers will bless her daughter for a successful marriage and help in difficult childbirth. She is able to hide her son from enemies and human deception, and will save him from demonic intrigues.
A mother who prays for her children in the morning protects them from harm throughout the day, and prayer before bedtime will take away night fears from her beloved child and will promote a restful, sweet sleep.
The key to a child's success is a mother's blessing. Whatever activities are planned for the day by the child, with blessing they will all go smoothly and successfully.
Heavenly patrons of children
In case of all sorts of troubles and misfortunes, it is customary to ask for intercession from the Heavenly Patrons.
The main thing is to understand the importance of the problem and know which one is best to contact.
The Mother of God will save you from bodily illnesses.
It is She who is famous for her miraculous healings of illnesses. It is recommended to place Her Holy Face over a child’s bed in order to quickly get rid of illness. It is the Queen of Heaven who will contemplate every minute on the sick child and intercede for him before Her Son.
Martyr Tryphon will help a sick child if, due to a serious illness, he finds himself in a hospital bed.
It is necessary to contact him before the upcoming surgical intervention. A sick child, under the patronage of the saint, will easily undergo the operation and recover quickly.
The Savior Not Made by Hands will save the child from addiction, bring him to reason, and discourage him from the bad influence of his troubled friends.
The Creator will guide him on the right path and enlighten the child who has forgotten about respect for elders.
Praying to the Guardian Angel will be useful for the protection of the child in his daily worries; it is he who will constantly patronize the child.
After all, from the Sacrament of Holy Baptism to the ascension to the Heavenly Abode, it is the guardian angel who leads the soul to salvation, protects from temptations and directs on the right path.
- Nicholas the Wonderworker, through a fiery mother’s prayer, will protect the child on a long journey, be it a hike, a journey, or military service.
- Elder Matrona of Moscow will help in healing from viral diseases, cure colds, and avert frequent attacks of seizures in infants.

- The saint in whose name the child is baptized will look after the child named in his honor all his life.
When starting prayer work, every prayer worker dreams of an instant result. But this happens very rarely. The Lord knows everything about the need of each person and decides what he really needs.
Many people who are weak in faith think that the Creator simply does not hear their prayers. But this is far from true. An ordinary layman is not able to fully understand and correctly interpret the situation that developed at a certain time.
In the family, the mother and father must, by their own example, instill in the child faith and love for Christ. Parents are obliged to show their children what is truth and what is sin. Children should also learn prayer from their parents.
Important! Parental prayer and blessing are the strongest amulet. By blessing her children, the mother seems to nourish the growing soul with the Holy Spirit. And then your beloved child will illuminate life with happy smiles, strength of faith and high achievements.

Maternal prayer for the health of children has a very high value in the church world, as well as great power. Mom - how much warmth and tenderness, care and affection, love and understanding there is in this word. Mothers protect their children even before they are born, and then throughout their lives, and it doesn’t matter: the child is five years old or the child is already forty-five. There is nothing more precious to a mother than her child.
Mother's prayer to the Mother of God
Words of prayer addressed to the Queen of Heaven have great power precisely because such a prayer is an appeal to the mother, the Mother of God.
The Virgin Mary is the most revered person, the greatest of Christian saints, because she is the earthly mother of Jesus Christ - the Son of God. According to legend, Mary (the only woman mentioned in the Koran) gave birth to her child Jesus in a miraculous way - being virginally pure. People believe that conception came from the Holy Spirit.
As the mother of the Son of God, the Mother of God is prayed for children:
- about children's health;
- about their prosperous life;
- about giving children the grace of the Lord;
- about successful studies, etc.
The incredible power of maternal prayer helps every person throughout their life. Being a mother is a great happiness, but also hard work. That is why the prayers of mothers for children occupy a special position in the Orthodox church world.
Prayer for a son - maternal prayer for protection
It has always been believed that a mother should read a prayer book and ask the Lord God to grant blessed grace for her child. Strong prayer has properties not only in the fight against illnesses, but can also protect a child from someone else’s negative influence, help solve any problem, or relieve worries and worries.
A Christian prayer for a son, heard from the lips of a mother, always helps to fulfill what is asked for.
A mother, starting from the day of birth of her child, lives with his joys and sorrows, his smiles and tears, his breath. There is no more selfless and brighter love than the love of a mother for her child. That is why there are whole legends about the great power of mother’s prayer for children. The Lord Almighty did not leave a single prayer for help uttered by the mother without his participation.
Prayers for a son date back to ancient times, they were very widely used during wars between states, when a mother sent her son to war, she always asked the Lord for a good share for her boy and a quick return.
“Sweet Jesus, God of my heart! You gave me children according to the flesh, they are Yours according to the soul; You redeemed both my soul and theirs with your priceless blood; For the sake of Your Divine blood, I beg You, my sweetest Savior, with Your grace touch the hearts of my children (names) and my godchildren (names), protect them with Your Divine fear; keep them from bad inclinations and habits, guide them to the bright path of life, truth and goodness.
Decorate their lives with everything good and saving, arrange their fate as You yourself want and save their souls with their own destinies! Lord, God of our Fathers! Give to my children (names) and godchildren (names) a right heart to keep Your commandments, Your revelations and Your statutes. And do it all! Amen".
Prayer for a daughter - a mother's prayer with special power
There are even more appeals to the Almighty about the well-being of daughters than about sons. My daughter is my mother’s tender flower. Mothers treat the birth and upbringing of daughters with special trepidation, because a son is a protector, a man, and a daughter herself requires protection.
A very pressing topic for parents is their daughter’s marriage. That is why, for a long time, mothers turned to the Lord asking for a happy life for their child, for well-being in the future family, for mutual understanding between loving hearts.
A special place among petitions for a daughter is occupied by a prayer for pregnancy. They say that when a girl cannot get pregnant, it is very important that her mother:
- She asked the holy images in the Orthodox Christian church for pregnancy and easy childbirth.
- She lit a candle for the health of her daughter, for the well-being of her family and for the birth of a child, took holy water from the church, and the daughter must drink this water and, in turn, light a candle for the health of her mother. The Lord hears such appeals and in most cases helps.
- A girl becomes a mother and already worries about her child, as her mother worried about her: she asks for his health, well-being, for the indulgence of God’s grace, for successful studies, for marriage and the birth of children.
This cycle accompanies everyone throughout their lives.
A mother's prayer for her child
Every mother worries, wishes health, a happy life and a bumpy road in life for her child. After all, being a mother means not only giving birth and raising a child, but also doing everything, making every possible effort so that his life turns out in the best possible way, and prayer in this difficult task is the best helper.
“Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, prayers for the sake of Thy Most Pure Mother, hear me, Thy sinful and unworthy servant (name). Lord, in the mercy of Thy power, my child (name), have mercy and save him for Thy name’s sake.
Lord, forgive him all the sins, voluntary and involuntary, committed by him before You. Lord, guide him on the true path of Your commandments and enlighten him with Your light of Christ, for the salvation of the soul and the healing of the body. Lord, bless him in the house, near the house , in the field, at work and on the road, and in every place of Your possession.
Lord, protect him under the protection of Your Saints from a flying bullet, arrow, knife, sword, poison, fire, flood, from a deadly plague and from vain death. Lord, protect him from visible and invisible enemies, from all troubles, evils and misfortunes. Lord, heal him from all diseases, cleanse him from all filth (wine, tobacco, drugs) and ease his mental suffering and sorrow.
Lord, grant him the grace of the Holy Spirit for many years of life and health, chastity. Lord, give him Your blessing for a pious family life and pious childbearing. Lord, grant me, Thy unworthy and sinful servant, a parental blessing for my child in the coming mornings , days, evenings and nights, for the sake of Your name, for Your Kingdom is eternal, omnipotent and omnipotent. Amen. Lord, have mercy (12 times).”
It is important not to be afraid to turn to the Almighty for help, he will hear everyone! God will help everyone - he will point out the right path in life, heal the sick, comfort the grieving, and will not leave the needy in trouble.
God bless you!

A mother's powerful prayer for her children
For a believing woman, motherhood has a slightly different meaning. A Christian mother is called to raise children in moral purity and teach them about God. Also, for Orthodox parents, it is normal for the mother and father to pray for their children. For them, it is like an invisible shield that can protect them from various troubles. Let's look at the most powerful prayers of mothers for their children.
Attitude towards motherhood
God has care for every soul. He intends for everyone, without exception, his own special path. Therefore, parents should not impose their own preferences on their child. They should respect the small personality from the very beginning. Their main task is to take care of morality and instill useful skills. They are necessary in order to keep the soul from evil when a small person becomes big.
When going to church, parents should take their children with them. Raising a worthy Christian is much more important than all other concerns. It doesn’t matter who the child becomes - what matters is his inner life. A prerequisite for this is the mother’s prayer for the children - it must be constant. Many holy fathers insist on this.
Mother's prayer for a child
“Lord Jesus Christ, awaken Thy mercy on my child (name), keep him under Thy roof, cover him from all evil lust, drive away from them every enemy and adversary, open his ears and the eyes of his heart, grant tenderness and humility to their hearts. Lord, we are all Your creation, have pity on my child (name) and turn him to repentance. Save, O Lord, and have mercy on my child (name), and enlighten his mind with the light of the mind of Your Gospel, and guide him on the path of Your commandments, and teach him, O Savior, to do Your will, for You are our God.”
Mother's prayer if children are sick
“O Most Merciful God, Father, Son and Holy Soul, worshiped and glorified in the Undivided Trinity, look upon Thy servant (her) (name of the child) who is overcome by illness; forgive him (her) all his (her) sins; grant him (her) healing from illness; return him (her) health and bodily strength; Give him (her) a long and prosperous life, Your peaceful and most worldly blessings, so that he (she) together with us brings grateful prayers to You, the All-Bounteous God and my Creator. Most Holy Theotokos, through Your omnipotent intercession, help me to beg Your Son, my God, for the healing of God’s servant (name). All saints and Angels of the Lord, pray to God for His sick servant (name). Amen."
Heavenly Father
God does not send children in vain. Parents are given power over them, as is repeatedly stated in the Holy Scriptures; even one of the commandments commands to honor father and mother. But they should not abuse their influence and demand obedience no matter what. Father and mother must themselves be accountable to their common Father, the Lord.
Children see everything perfectly well, so you cannot demand from them what is not fulfilled by the elders in the family. A smoking father cannot demand that his son quit smoking. Because his behavior speaks of neglect of his duties to build a temple of God from the body.
Model of an Orthodox mother
Only humility before God can make a mother’s prayer for her children strong. And if she screams, criticizes her husband, gets irritated over every little thing - it is unlikely that such a person will inspire respect in the child.Going to church and Sunday school is wonderful. But a child, as the closest person, even if small, is capable of perceiving the smallest movements of the soul. And the mother’s heart should be for him a window into the kingdom of heaven. Through her spiritual world, he begins to build his own. A pious mother teaches her child from an early age:
- make the sign of the cross,
- venerate icons
- pray briefly.
It is such a mother who will have very strong prayers for her children. History knows examples of how requests to God saved lives and pulled people out from the very bottom of the moral abyss. Christians owe this to the special relationship of Christ to His earthly Mother.
Cross of the Virgin Mary
When people remember Saint Mary, they think about the honor God showed her. But does it often occur to anyone how difficult it was for her as a woman? To endure, to give birth to a Son, and then to give him up to be torn to pieces, to watch the torment and death of your only child? This is who you need to ask for patience when it seems that your strength is running out.
Prayers for children to the Mother of God can be read before any image:- ask them for health;
- assistance with studies;
- maintaining moral purity.
In such cases, the holy fathers do not limit the frequency of prayers - after all, the heart cannot be commanded to love less. Namely, love and worries about the eternal fate of their soulmate motivate mothers to perform feats of prayer.
In Christianity, family is highly valued; the relationship between parents and children is an important part of education. Orthodox fathers wrote many special prayers that a mother should read for her children.
Christian Parenting
From the very first days of life, it is necessary to bring the baby to church and not remove the cross from him. There has never been a case where the ribbon did any harm. It is advisable to have fast days on Wednesdays and Fridays after 2 years. And it’s good for health, as doctors say today. Plant foods cleanse the body and allow it to take a break from the stress that heavy foods with animal fats create.- Give communion to children regularly.
- At home, read prayers out loud, the Holy Scriptures - even if the baby does not understand the words, they will still have their beneficial effect.
- On an empty stomach, give holy water, a piece of blessed bread or prosphora.
- Bring the baby for blessing in the temple, apply it to the Cross.
You just shouldn’t make the mistake of putting into the child’s mind the image of a formidable God who seeks to punish for the slightest offense. This will not cause love, but rather disappointment and longing for the Creator, Who loves and forgives.
Children of primary school age are able to perceive the Gospel texts naturally. They are surprised not so much by miracles as by the behavior of Christ, His love and self-sacrifice.
You should not force small children to cram prayers. It is better to explain that God hears everything, and in the morning you need to say hello to Him, in the evening you need to say goodbye. Let the child turn to Jesus in his own words, over time he will learn church texts. The main thing here is not to discourage the desire to understand this issue.

For a mother’s prayer for her children to become a strong protection for them, the mother must sincerely believe in the Lord and in his strength. It is from parents, by their example, that children learn to love and honor God.
There are several powerful and rare prayers for children that any mother should know even before her child is born.

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 adversities of this world. And in addition to physical protection, many parents resort to such a method as the 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 poetry to various Higher powers (beings) for help, with gratitude or praise for their deeds. A prayer acquires real power only when it is said by a true believer. Therefore, in order for a mother’s prayer for children to have an effect, a woman must herself believe in its power and that it will help.
The prayer can be:
- public (when it is pronounced 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 pronounced in words or read mentally.
In Christianity, 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 indication of the right direction.
The holy books contain a large number of prayer texts in verse and prose, which are used today for a variety of services. By reading these spiritual sources of wisdom, you will receive answers to many important questions, you will feel good and calm, and you will receive support in difficult situations. As popular wisdom says: “If you don’t know what to do, pray!”
Rules for reading prayers
Since we most belong to Christianity, Orthodox prayers will have the greatest power on our land. 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 the prayer while standing. Your face should be turned towards the east - where the sun rises. Women are required to cover their heads and wear 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). At 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 mandatory to attend Sunday services (public services in the Temple) to receive grace. You can also always come to church whenever you need it, because the doors of this special place are always open to everyone.
Features of home prayer
It is necessary to prepare for any prayer. To begin with, you should carefully read the text of the prayers for children. You must understand every word you speak. It must come not only from your lips, but also from your heart. It is advisable to memorize all the main prayers so as not to stumble while reading them.
Before you begin to pray, try to expel from your heart all the resentments and any bitterness that is present in it. If you want to see goodness from God, you must experience for yourself what it is to be kind.
Before starting prayer, you need to retire, light a lamp and stand in front of the icons. You can recite the text of prayers, either alone or with the whole family. Such family reading is a type of public prayer, but in no way replaces individual prayer.
To begin, sign yourself with the sign of the cross and make several bows from the waist or to the ground. After this, try to tune in to internal communication with God. In silence, an awareness of the importance of the ritual being performed should come to you.
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 towards the spoken words guarantees a positive result. For example, in asking for cleansing from defilement, one should feel this defilement in oneself and truly desire deliverance from it. And when praying for love, try to find it in yourself and understand what exactly you expect from your request.
You also need to be very focused while praying. It is believed that anyone who reads the text absent-mindedly and inattentively will not be heard by the Lord. The human mind is always busy, so you need to be prepared for distractions. At such moments, try to focus even more on the process and bring your thoughts into a calm state.
You don't need to be looking at your watch all the time, so get into a position that you can stand in for a long time. 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 prayers throughout the day to penetrate their meaning. It is not recommended to read a lot of general prayers in a row. It is better to interrupt them with a personal appeal to God.
Priests recommend not only praying (reading a text established in a certain order), but also talking to God in your own words. This way you can tell the Lord about your aspirations, troubles and joys. Communication with God must be carried out constantly in order to maintain your connection at a sufficient level. 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 the Holy Scriptures are widespread, but also those that were pronounced by some Holy Fathers. Over time, they became a familiar 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 spoken by a person to bring him what he wants in the future, purity of heart must be complemented by the depth of personal faith and the experience of his entire spiritual life. Under such conditions, the power of prayer will increase many times over.
Maternal prayer is one of the most powerful
There are several parables about how powerful maternal prayers can be. 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 (they are sick, they have turned away from the right path, they are cursed), the more diligently you need to pray. This is explained as follows:
God cares about his children and even with all our evil or simply bad deeds, he does not turn away from us. Likewise, we must constantly think and pray about our children, forgiving them of their misdeeds.
Directed along an unrighteous path, the child, after he grows up, lives his life, meets God and answers to the Almighty on his own. But for the fact that the mother curses the child, even if his behavior is unacceptable, the mother must answer. After all, raising a child is a big responsibility, and when you are going to introduce him into this world, you must be ready to take it upon yourself. And if something doesn’t work out in your children’s lives, then it’s your fault. You need to start praying more diligently for your child and yourself.
Who should pray for children?
In order for prayer to have the greatest power, it is necessary to turn to a specific icon. There are some recommendations about who and when it is better to pray to (for example, the Kazan Mother of God is turned to when a person needs intercession in difficult times).
Prayers before the images of Jesus Christ and the Mother of God are considered the most powerful. Moreover, you can turn to any icon in prose or verse, where Our Lord or the Queen of Heaven is depicted. The Mother of God is considered the patroness of women and motherhood, so most people turn to her with prayers for children. Also, the “Leaping of the Baby” icon, which is dedicated to motherhood in general, can give special power to mother’s prayers.
Mothers of soldiers who serve in hot spots often turn to the Kazan Icon. Great commanders always prayed to her when going to war or before starting a battle. In addition to victory, the Kazan Mother of God was asked to reduce losses and preserve the lives of soldiers.
Many mothers, trying to take care of their children and protect them from troubles and misfortunes, turn to the icon of the “Sign with the Mother of God,” which is one of the most revered in our country.
But the icon “Helper of Sinners” is not as popular as the icon of Our Lady of Kazan, but it can become the last hope for those who have committed a great sin or need quick absolution (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 plans of evil forces, parents baptize him. Of course, when baptized, the baby does not receive one hundred percent protection, but this helps improve 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 the Orthodox Church. Its essence lies in the fact that at baptism a person, as it were, “dies” to a sinful life and is born again to lead a righteous life and receive Salvation. After completing this ritual, a person will be able to enter the Kingdom of Heaven.
This action is called a sacrament because the influence of God’s power on a little person is carried out in an invisible, mysterious way. When baptized, it is mandatory 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 take care of their children, suggest to the child, and then to the adult, the right path that will ultimately lead his soul to Salvation. To baptize or not? This decision has always been and is up to 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.
