Orthodox prayer of a mother for her son
“Heavenly Father! Grant me the grace to take every possible care to tempt my children with my actions, but, constantly bearing in mind their behavior, to distract them from errors, correct their mistakes, curb their stubbornness and obstinacy, refrain from striving for vanity and frivolity, so that they do not get carried away by crazy thoughts; Let them not follow their own hearts; 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; let them advance in virtue and holiness; May they increase in Your favor and in the love of pious people.”
Such prayers should be read in a quiet environment at home or in church, preferably holding a lit church candle in your hands. Traditionally, prayers are offered at the icon of the Mother of God, who is considered the patroness of all mothers and their children.

Hello! The impact of a mother's prayer for her child is equivalent to a miracle. Maternal prayer receives great strength and power from the Lord himself. The power of maternal prayer will become your helper in saving your children from any hardships in life.
Emergency help in any adversity
A mother’s prayer will save her child from any troubles; it is not for nothing that it is called an emergency communication channel, a “lifeline.” The mother's request has pure intentions and is devoid of any self-interest. The Lord gave her such power precisely for her sacrifice and selflessness. In the history of Christianity there are many examples of the amazing effectiveness of the mother's prayer word.
The mother is given such a highest purpose - this birth of a child. It completely “flows” into him without any trace, warms him with its warmth, and helps him comprehend eternal values. The mother fills her child with spiritual purity, eternal folk wisdom, and everyday skills. It’s not for nothing that people came up with such a humorous saying: when the Creator did not have time to keep track of everyone on Earth, then he created a mother...
It is the mother who gives life to a new person who is forever connected to him by an “umbilical cord”, and therefore bears endless responsibility before the Almighty for his life and destiny.
So that a mother could help her child in all cases, God gave her a strong mother’s help, which is so strong that the Lord will always hear her and help at the mother’s request.
A person will always be rewarded according to his faith. Faith is the main condition for the effectiveness of prayer. Even when a mother pronounces a prayer “in her own words,” but with ardent faith, she will be able to draw the Lord’s attention to the problems of her son or daughter.
Mother's faith is the greatest strength! Her appeal to the Creator will help her receive her daughter’s blessing for a happy marriage, and then help in difficult childbirth. A prayer for a son can protect him from deception, fierce enemies, and save him from temptations and devilish machinations.
And the Scripture says that children should also honor their parents. After all, it is love for parents that prolongs the longevity of any person. “A son who offends his parents will have a sad fate (Prov. 30:17).”
Who to pray for the fate of the child
It will help to recover from viral diseases and severe colds. If a baby is suffering from convulsions, pray to Saint Matrona. If your daughter does not have children, then ask Matrona of Moscow to intercede with the Lord for the gift of a child.
For a son who is going to military service, say a prayer St. George the Victorious. He will take care of your son's safety. St. George the Victorious is the patron of all men, youths, and boys for whom they pray.
Ksenia Petersburgskaya helps all children who suffer from mental disabilities or physical disabilities. She will calm the person suffering from a serious illness and ease his plight.
We must pray for health Saint Panteleimon. Let the icon with the face of St. Panteleimon stand in your home.
“I turn to you in prayer, Panteleimon the Healer! Grant healing to my child, send him strength, touch his flesh, kiss his soul. Extinguish the blazing fire, tame passion, revoke weakness. Wake up the servant of God (name), raise him from his sick bed. Give him Your blessing. We submit to Your will and await Your mercy. In the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Amen."
Every parent hopes that her prayer will be instantly fulfilled. The Lord hears everything, but He Himself decides what each person needs at the moment.
Do not grumble against God, this is a great sin. Pray without grumbling, with true faith, then you will be rewarded according to your faith. In the family, by your example, instill in your children faith and love for Christ, teach them to pray.
How to Pray at Home
It is best to pray in a temple, but if this is not possible, then you can pray at home. Create a corner at home where you will always pray. Over time, this place will gain incredible power.
- If you get sick and cannot read the prayer words standing or on your knees, then do it sitting or lying down, but do not stop praying.

Instruct, Lord, my daughter on the true path, help her to live according to the commandments of God and not succumb to devilish temptations.
And if she sins, voluntarily or unwittingly, I ask that you judge her not according to the iniquity committed, but according to the great mercy of the Lord. Bless, All-Merciful Lord, Great Lover of Mankind, my daughter for a prosperous and happy life.
Let evil people not harm her either with their deeds or thoughts. I believe in your goodness, Lord, and glorify all good deeds in my prayers. Amen.

Dear friends, this is only part of what I would like to tell you about the power of maternal prayer. But its essence is that it has no equal in terms of its impact. Pray, believe in the mercy and help of our Savior!
A mother’s prayer is the strongest and most powerful, which can save her children from illness, misfortune and reckless actions. “A mother’s prayer will reach from the bottom of the sea” is a truth that is relevant at all times, confirmed by countless examples of the amazing power and effectiveness of the prayers of millions of mothers. Holy maternal love is capable of overcoming any obstacles, achieving the impossible and creating real miracles.
A mother's word has special power. There is nothing brighter and more selfless than a mother’s love. From the first day of birth of a child, the mother lives by his breath, his tears and smiles. The child needs the mother. This is the meaning of her life. Love for her baby is as natural to her as the blossoming of gardens in spring. Just as the sun sends out its rays, warming all living things, so a mother’s love warms a child. The mother introduces the child to life. She puts into his mouth the native language, which has absorbed the wealth of the mind, thoughts and feelings of the people. It fills him with spiritual strength and helps him comprehend eternal values.
Many good believing mothers have had to worry about their children dying in the whirlpool of a vicious, dissolute life. Some had to spend many years in sorrow, humbly waiting and hoping. Their holy tears and prayers were not in vain.
When children are ill, you can pray not only to Christ and the Mother of God, but also to numerous Orthodox saints. Among them, Nicholas the Wonderworker, Martyr Tryphon, Great Martyr Panteleimon, Blessed Xenia of Petersburg, Saint Matrona of Moscow and many others are famous for their special help.
If prayer doesn't help
Sometimes the help expected from God never comes, as if He does not hear prayers. But in any case, there is no need to despair. From the point of view of the Christian meaning of life, it is better for some people to die in time and be saved for Eternal Life than to survive, but then destroy their soul. Nothing happens by chance with God, and He takes a person to Himself at the moment of his best spiritual state and greatest readiness for salvation in Eternity. Or when the spiritual decline becomes irreversible.
And it also happens that God, seemingly for years, ignores the pleas of a mother asking him to help her child in trouble, but in the end the story has a good ending. And the reason for “deafness” turns out to be God’s desire to correct a person, for whom premature indulgences can only do a disservice.
