Prayer of St. Alexander of Svirsky to the Lord God and to the Most Holy Theotokos

Prayer has a special meaning in the life of believers. The Orthodox know that these are not just words addressed to the Lord, but real unity with heavenly powers. When waking up in the morning, the first thing you should do is read a prayer to show the Lord your readiness for righteous deeds and to enlist his support. “Our Father”, “Trisagion”, “God, cleanse me, a sinner” - these are all the prayers included in the list of morning prayers.

Morning prayers

In fact, reading prayers is not just a random utterance of words addressed to God or some saint.
Deeply religious people are indignant towards those who read prayers wherever and whenever they have to. Beginners, on the contrary, cannot even pronounce texts in the language in which prayers are written.

In addition, there is a certain prayer rule - this is a list of prayers intended for the evening and for the morning. For example, the “Our Father” prayer, known to many, is the main appeal with which the day can begin and end. This prayer must be read before breakfast.

The prayer rule cannot be the same for everyone: some have the opportunity to devote the required amount of time to morning prayers, but others do not.

One thing is important here: the prayer rule can even be very short, but it must be observed. It is believed that even a five-minute morning prayer, read from the heart and not formally, is sufficient for a person to be called a good Christian

The most important thing is the correspondence between thoughts and words read.

Morning prayers must include reading the remembrance. At this time, they pray for peace, the health of their relatives and just people who are somehow related to your life.

It is also important to remember your ill-wishers in order to wish them well. The prayer of Macarius the Great “God cleanse”, as well as his other prayers - mostly morning ones

She is the one who has enormous power, because this saint was known for his good deeds

The prayer of Macarius the Great “God cleanse”, as well as his other prayers, are mostly morning. It is she who has enormous power, because this saint was known for his good deeds.

How do morning prayers help?

The Monk Seraphim of Sarov indicated the following:

Having risen from sleep, a Christian, standing in front of the holy icons, let him read the Lord’s Prayer “Our Father” three times, in honor of the Most Holy Trinity, then the hymn to the Mother of God “Rejoice, Virgin Mary” also three times and the Creed once.

The main morning prayers also include the prayer of Macarius the Great “God cleanse” and other prayers of this saint.

How do morning prayers help:

  • give praise to the Lord;
  • ask God for protection;
  • prepare to perform good deeds during the day.

Oh my goodness. Prayer

O merciful God, let me die, As you give hope to those who forgive. I don’t need people as much as before And I don’t apologize to hope For wanting to soar to the heights.

I pray you, let everyone forget me, And I will appear in a wedding dress, in the coffin I will give my embrace to death. And lips, like a scarlet petal, will forever forget living joys. After all, death will give you endless smog, and a new meaningless name.

Oh wait, I hear someone knocking, No, this heart is trembling in silence. It’s as if in silence I hear a sound, But I still lose everything that heals.

I didn’t find the one I was looking for, Although it seemed as if he was nearby. I don't know when I'll forgive myself. But I don’t need this life anymore...

Have mercy on me, O God, according to Your great mercy, and according to the multitude of Your compassions, cleanse my iniquity. Above all, wash me from my iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin; for I know my iniquity, and I will take away my sin before me. To You alone have I sinned and done evil before You; for you may be justified in all of Your words, and you will always triumph over Your judgment. Behold, I was conceived in iniquity, and my mother gave birth to me in sins. Behold, you have loved the truth; You have revealed to me the unknown and secret wisdom of Yours. Sprinkle me with hyssop, and I will be cleansed; Wash me, and I will be whiter than snow. My hearing brings joy and joy; humble bones will rejoice. Turn Your face away from my sins and cleanse all my iniquities. Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a right spirit in my womb. Do not cast me away from Your presence and do not take Your Holy Spirit away from me. Reward me with the joy of Your salvation and strengthen me with the Lord’s Spirit. I will teach the wicked Your way, and the wicked will turn to You. Deliver me from bloodshed, O God, God of my salvation; My tongue will rejoice in Your righteousness. Lord, open my mouth, and my mouth will declare Your praise. As if you had desired sacrifices, you would have given them: you do not favor burnt offerings. The sacrifice to God is a broken spirit; God will not despise a broken and humble heart. Bless Zion, O Lord, with Your favor, and may the walls of Jerusalem be built. Then favor the sacrifice of righteousness, the offering and the burnt offering; Then they will place the bullock on Your altar. Symbol of Faith I believe in one God the Father, Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth, visible to all and invisible. And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God, who was born of the Father before all ages; Light from Light, true God from true God, born, uncreated, consubstantial with the Father, to Whom all things were. For our sake, man and our salvation came down from heaven, and became incarnate from the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary, and became human. She was crucified for us under Pontius Pilate, and suffered and was buried. And rose again on the third day, according to the Scriptures. And ascended into heaven, and sits at the right hand of the Father. And again He will come with glory, to judge the living and the dead, His Kingdom will have no end. And in the Holy Spirit, the life-giving Lord, who proceeds from the Father, who with the Father and the Son is worshiped and glorified, who spoke the prophets. Into One Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church. I confess one baptism for the remission of sins. I hope for the resurrection of the dead and the life of the next century. Amen. And read the canon and (or) akathist.

Translation:

Prayer 1, St. Macarius the Great “God, cleanse me, a sinner”

The prayer “God, cleanse me, a sinner,” has powerful power. This is the prayer of Macarius the Great, who was known for his righteous deeds and left a legacy of many theological writings.

God, cleanse me, a sinner, for I have done nothing good before You; but deliver me from the evil one, and may Your will be done in me, may I open my unworthy lips without condemnation and praise Your holy name, the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, now and ever and unto the ages of ages.

Psalm 26

Audio:

Lord is my enlightenment and my Savior, whom will I fear? Lord, Protector of my life, from whom shall I fear? Sometimes you come close to me with malice, even if you tear away my flesh, those who insult me ​​and attack me, you become weak and fall. Even if a regiment rises up against me, my heart will not fear: even if it rises up to fight against me, I will trust in Him. I have asked one thing of the Lord, and I will require this: that I may live in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, that I may behold the beauty of the Lord and visit His holy temple. Because He hid me in His village in the day of my evils, He covered me in the secret of His village, He lifted me up on a rock. And now, behold, I have lifted up my head against my enemies: I have eaten and devoured in His village a sacrifice of praise and shouting: I will sing and sing praises to the Lord. Hear, O Lord, my voice, which I have cried, have mercy on me and hear me. My heart says to you: I will seek the Lord, I will seek your face, O Lord, I will seek your face. Do not turn Your face away from me, and do not turn aside with anger from Your servant: be my helper, do not reject me and do not forsake me, O God, my Savior. For my father and mother abandoned me, but the Lord will receive me. Establish the law, O Lord, in Thy way, and guide me on the right path for my enemy’s sake. Do not betray me to the souls of my afflicted ones: for I have stood up as a witness of unrighteousness, and lied untruthfully to myself. I believe in seeing the good Lord on the earth of the living. Be patient with the Lord, be of good courage, and let your heart be strong, and be patient with the Lord.

We advise you to study the Icon of the Savior and the Good Silence

The Lord is my light and my salvation: whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life: whom shall I fear? If evildoers, my opponents and my enemies come upon me to devour my flesh, then they themselves will stumble and fall. If a regiment takes up arms against me, my heart will not fear; if war arises against me, then I will hope. I asked one thing from the Lord, that only I seek, that I might abide in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, contemplate the beauty of the Lord and visit His temple, for He would hide me in His tabernacle on the day of trouble, would hide me in the secret place of His habitation , would take me to the rock. Then my head would be lifted above the enemies surrounding me; and I would offer sacrifices of praise in His tabernacle, and would begin to sing and make melody before the Lord. Hear, O Lord, my voice with which I cry, have mercy on me and listen to me. My heart speaks from You: “Seek My face”; and I will seek Your face, O Lord. Hide not Your face from me; do not reject Your servant in anger. You were my helper; do not reject me and do not forsake me, O God, my Savior! for my father and my mother have forsaken me, but the Lord will receive me. Teach me, O Lord, Thy way and guide me on the path of righteousness, for the sake of my enemies; Do not hand me over to the mercy of my enemies, for false witnesses have risen up against me and breathe malice. But I believe that I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Trust in the Lord, be of good courage, and let your heart be strengthened, and trust in the Lord.

Psalm 50, repentance

Have mercy on me, O God, according to Your great mercy. And according to the multitude of Your compassions, cleanse my iniquity. Above all, wash me from my iniquity and cleanse me from my sin. For I know my iniquity, and I will take away my sin before me. I have sinned and done evil before You alone. For you may be justified in your words and overcome without ever being judged. Behold, I was conceived in iniquity, and in sins my mother gave birth to me. Behold, you have loved the truth; You have shown me Your unknown and secret wisdom. Sprinkle me with hyssop, and I will be clean. Wash me, and I will be whiter than snow. Hear my joy and gladness, the humble bones will rejoice. Turn away Your face from my sins and cleanse all my iniquities. Create a pure heart in me, O God, and renew a right spirit in my womb. Do not turn me away from Your face and do not take Your Holy Spirit from me. Give me the joy of Your salvation and strengthen me with the Lord’s Spirit. I will teach the wicked your way, and wickedness will turn to you. Deliver me from blood, O God, God of my salvation; my tongue will rejoice in Your righteousness. Lord, open my mouth, and my mouth will declare Your praise. As if he had wanted a sacrifice, he would have given it; You do not favor burnt offerings. A sacrifice to God is a contrite spirit: God will not despise a contrite and humble heart. Bless Zion, O Lord, with Your favor; and let the walls of Jerusalem be built. Then be pleased with the sacrifice of righteousness, the offering and the burnt offering. Then they will place the calf on Your altar.

The prayer of Saint John of Damascus, pointing to your bed, says:

Master, Lover of Mankind, will this coffin really be my bed, or will you still enlighten my damned soul during the day? For seven the grave lies ahead, for seven death awaits. I fear Your judgment, Lord, and endless torment, but I do not stop doing evil: I always anger You, the Lord my God, and Your Most Pure Mother, and all the Heavenly powers, and the holy Angel my wounder. We know, Lord, that I am unworthy of Your love for mankind, but I am worthy of all condemnation and torment. But, Lord, either I want it or I don’t want it, save me. If you save the righteous, nothing great; and even if You have pure mercy, nothing is marvelous: for you are worthy of Your mercy. But on me, a sinner, surprise Thy mercy: for this show Thy love for mankind, so that my malice may not overcome Thy ineffable goodness and mercy: and as You will, arrange a thing for me.

And even if you recline on your bed, say this:

Enlighten my eyes, O Christ God, / lest I sleep into death, / lest my enemy say: / I have strengthened myself against him.

Glory: O God, protector of my soul, / as I walk in the midst of many nets; / deliver me from them / and save me, O Blessed One, as a Lover of Mankind.

And now, Mother of God: The most glorious Mother of God, and the Most Holy Angel of all saints, / let us silently sing with our hearts and lips, / confessing this Mother of God, / as she who truly gave birth to us God incarnate, / and they say constantly speaking about our souls.

What does Macarius the Great help with?

He got married quickly, at the request of his parents, but his home life did not last long, and he soon became a widower. Then his parents also passed away. Macarius decided that all his property would no longer be useful to him, distributed it to the poor and began to move into the desert.

There lived a lonely old man who was very happy to shelter a guest. During this period of residence, the old man preached worship to Macarius as a science, and at the same time they weaved baskets together. A little later they built a separate house for Macarius nearby. A couple of years passed like this.

https://youtube.com/watch?v=ytcopyrighten-GB

Much later, following the advice of his own mentor, Macarius went to the Skete hermitage. He showed himself to be a monk with a wealth of experience, and this despite the fact that he was only 30 years old! In addition, he skillfully healed and treated people who came and came to him even from afar.

This lifestyle did not give him the privacy he wanted, and he created such a space for himself. It was a cave that he dug with his own hands under his home. There he hid from the whole world to read prayers and think about God.

We advise you to study the Prayers in front of the icon “Support of Sinners”

In the period from 364 to 378, Macarius the Majestic was persecuted by Archbishop Luke. Together with Macarius of Alexandria, he was taken by ship to an uninhabited peninsula, which was inhabited by pagans. Both saints should not have survived on this peninsula.

After this, Macarius the Great lived for about 60 more years in the ruined desert in constant prayers, labors and repentance. All of his actual experiences resulted in countless prayers and spiritual conversations. They became the majestic legacy of the majestic saint and were translated into almost all languages ​​of the world.

February 1 for Christians is a day of remembrance and honor of this miracle worker. On this day, a church service is held in his honor and an akathist is read.

Being a serious man and possessing the deepest spiritual purity, Macarius received the nickname “Majestic.” Because of this, people offer him prayers that help him in life. Usually, Macarius the Great is required:

  • about obtaining reassurance in difficult current situations.
  • about spiritual balance.
  • about getting rid of evil spirits and witchcraft.
  • about wisdom and enlightenment, strengthening faith.
  • about the correctness of the chosen actual path.

The icon of Macarius the Great cannot be classified as one of the most widespread icons: occasionally a church can be damaged by its presence. Most often it is found in monasteries, where this image is highly revered.

One of his most famous images is an icon made using the fresco technique by Theophan the Greek. This particular work by the famous bogomaz is one of the most beautiful creations in world art. It is located in the choir of the Trinity Church.

The icon is made in monochrome, in other words, in black and white colors. On it, an old man stands before us - tall and powerful, his face darkened from a tan. A long beard and a shock of grayish hair are a distinctive feature.

This is how the Reverend appears to people in the vision of Theophan the Greek. On other icons, Macarius the Great can be seen in long clothes made from the wool of feral goats. But this also unites all the icons with the image of Macarius; in each work one can note a small number of colors.

In the morning, while still in bed, cross yourself with prayer:

Lord (on the head) , Jesus Christ (on the stomach) , Son of God (on the right shoulder) , have mercy on me, a sinner (on the left shoulder) .

Females should pronounce “sinful” instead of “sinful”; Likewise, in all prayers one should make a declination according to its type.

If several people are praying and the prayers are read by the eldest, then in most prayers (with the exception of the publican’s prayer, psalms and other prayers with a set text) “me”, “mine”, “me”, etc. is replaced by “us”, “ours”, “us”, respectively, the word “sinner” is not read (for example, “Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on us”, “Saints and glorious martyr and victorious George, pray to God for us” and etc.).

Getting out of bed and washing your face, and in the evening, going to bed, stand with reverence before the holy icons and, looking at them, directing your thoughts to the invisible God and His saints. Sincerely, slowly, making the sign of the cross and bowing, say with tenderness the prayer of the publican:

God, be merciful to me, a sinner (bow).

Create me, O Lord, and have mercy on me (bow).

Without number of sins, Lord, have mercy and forgive me, a sinner (bow).

It is worthy to eat, for truly the blessedness of Theotokos, ever blessed and most immaculate, and the Mother of our God. The most honorable cherub and the most glorious seraphim, who gave birth to the true Mother of God without the corruption of God’s Word, we magnify Thee (always bow to the ground).

Glory to the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit (bow).

And now and ever and forever and ever, amen (bow).

Lord have mercy, Lord have mercy, Lord bless (bow).

Lord, Jesus Christ, Son of God, prayers for the sake of Your Most Pure Mother, by the power of the Honest and Life-giving Cross, and the holy Angel of my guardian, and for the sake of all the saints, have mercy and save me, a sinner, for you are Good and Lover of Mankind, Amen (bow to the ground, without the sign of the cross ).

These prayers are called “beginning”, or arrival and departure bows, because they are performed at the beginning and after any prayer rule.

After this, repeat the publican’s prayer with bows:

God, be merciful to me, a sinner (bow).

Create me, O Lord, and have mercy on me (bow).

Without number of sins, Lord, have mercy and forgive me, a sinner (bow).

And begin your morning prayers with reverence:

For the prayers of the saints, our fathers, Lord (on the head) Jesus Christ (on the stomach) , Son of God (on the right shoulder) , have mercy on us. (on the left shoulder) Amen (always bow from the waist).

Cross yourself and say:

Glory to Thee, our God, glory to Thee for everyone's sake (three times).

God, cleanse me, a sinner, for I have done no good before You (bow), but deliver me from the evil one, and let Your will be done in me (bow), so that I may open my unworthy lips without condemnation and praise Thy holy name: Father and Son and Holy Spirit, now and ever and unto ages of ages, amen (bow).

Circled prayers are not read in the evening.

Cross yourself and read:

King of heaven, Comforter, True Soul, Who is everywhere and fulfills everything, Treasure of good things and Giver of life, come and dwell in us, and cleanse us from all filth, and save, O Good One, our soul ours.

Holy Gods (on the head) , Holy Saints (on the stomach) , Holy Saints Immortals (on the right shoulder) , have mercy on us (on the left shoulder and bow. Three times).

Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on us. Amen.

Lord have mercy (12 times).

Having risen from sleep, I thank Thee, All-Holy Trinity, for for the sake of many, for the sake of kindness and long-suffering, Thy sinful and lazy servant was not angry with me, and Thou didst not destroy me with my iniquities. , but philanthropic. And in desperation, lying down, raise me up to wake me up and glorify Your invincible power. And now, Master, Most Holy God, enlighten the eyes of my heart and open my lips to learn Your words, and understand Your commandments, and do Your will, and sing to You in confession Giving from the heart. Sing and glorify Your most honorable and magnificent name, the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, now and ever and unto ages of ages, amen.

In the evening, the prayer “Rising from sleep...” is not read, but after 12 times “Lord have mercy” we read:

Glory to the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, now and ever and unto ages of ages, amen.

Read further, both morning and evening:

Come, let us worship the King our God (bow). Come, let us worship Christ, the King and our God (bow). Come, let us bow and fall before the Lord Jesus Christ Himself, the King and our God (bow).

Then Psalm 50 (repentance).

Have mercy on me, O God, according to Your great mercy. And according to the multitude of Your compassions, cleanse my iniquity. Above all, wash me from my iniquity and cleanse me from my sin. For I know my iniquity, and I will take away my sin before me. I have sinned and done evil before You alone. For you may be justified in your words and overcome without ever being judged. Behold, I was conceived in iniquity, and in sins my mother gave birth to me. Behold, you have loved the truth; You have shown me Your unknown and secret wisdom. Sprinkle me with hyssop, and I will be clean. Wash me, and I will be whiter than snow. Hear my joy and gladness, the humble bones will rejoice. Turn away Your face from my sins and cleanse all my iniquities. Create a pure heart in me, O God, and renew a right spirit in my womb. Do not turn me away from Your face and do not take Your Holy Spirit from me. Give me the joy of Your salvation and strengthen me with the Lord’s Spirit. I will teach the wicked your way, and wickedness will turn to you. Deliver me from blood, O God, God of my salvation; my tongue will rejoice in Your righteousness. Lord, open my mouth, and my mouth will declare Your praise. As if he had wanted a sacrifice, he would have given it; You do not favor burnt offerings. A sacrifice to God is a contrite spirit: God will not despise a contrite and humble heart. Bless Zion, O Lord, with Your favor; and let the walls of Jerusalem be built. Then be pleased with the sacrifice of righteousness, the offering and the burnt offering. Then they will place the calf on Your altar.

With reverence, having protected ourselves with the sign of the cross, we read the Creed.

I believe in one God, the Father, Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth, visible to all and invisible. And in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the Son of God, the only begotten, who was born of the Father before all ages. Light from Light, true God from true God, born, not created, consubstantial with the Father, by whom all things were. For our sake, man, and for our salvation, who came down from heaven and became incarnate from the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary. Crucified for us under Pontius Pilate, suffering and buried. And he rose again on the third day according to the scriptures. And ascended into heaven, and sits at the right hand of the Father. And again the one who is to come with glory will be judged by the living and the dead; His kingdom will have no end. And in the Holy Spirit, the true and life-giving Lord, who proceeds from the Father, who is with the Father and the Son, we are worshiped and glorified, who spoke the prophets. And into one holy catholic and apostolic Church. I confess one Baptism for the remission of sins. Tea of ​​resurrection for the dead. And the life of the future century. Amen.

God, be merciful to me, a sinner. (Bow)

We advise you to study Prayers for the sanctification of any thing

Translation:

God, be merciful to me, a sinner.

This is the prayer of a publican (tax collector in ancient times) who repented of his sins and received forgiveness. This is how it is described in the Gospel:

He also spoke to some who were confident about themselves that they were righteous, and humiliated others, the following parable: two men entered the temple to pray: one was a Pharisee, and the other was a tax collector. The Pharisee stood and prayed to himself like this: God! I thank You that I am not like other people, robbers, offenders, adulterers, or like this publican: I fast twice a week, I give a tenth of everything I acquire. The publican, standing in the distance, did not even dare to raise his eyes to heaven; but, striking himself on the chest, he said: God! be merciful to me, a sinner!

I tell you that this one went to his house justified more than the other: for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but he who humbles himself will be exalted (Luke 18:9-14).

Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, prayers for the sake of Your Most Pure Mother and all the saints, have mercy on us. Amen.

Have mercy on us - be merciful to us, forgive us. Jesus is the Savior. Christ is the Anointed One. He was named so because he fully had those gifts of the Holy Spirit, which in the Old Testament kings, prophets and high priests received through anointing. For the sake of prayers - for the sake of prayers or for prayers.

Jesus Christ is the Son of God - the second Person of the Holy Trinity. As the Son of God, He is our true God, as are God the Father and God the Holy Spirit. His earthly name is Jesus, that is, the Savior, because He saved us from sins and eternal death. For this, He, being the Son of God, dwelt in the Immaculate Virgin Mary and, with the influx of the Holy Spirit, became incarnate and became man from Her, that is, took on the body and soul of a man - was born from the Most Holy Virgin Mary, became the same person as we are, but As soon as he was sinless, he became a God-man. And instead of us suffering and tormented for our sins, out of love for us, His children, He suffered for us, died on the cross and rose again on the third day, defeating death and sin and giving us eternal life. Realizing our sinfulness and not relying on the power of our prayers, in this prayer we ask you to pray for us, sinners, before our Savior of all saints and the Mother of God, who has the special grace to save us, through Her intercession before Her Son.

Translation: Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, through the prayers of Your Most Pure Mother and all the saints, have mercy on us.

Glory to Thee, our God, glory to Thee.

Glory is praise. In this prayer we do not ask God for anything, but only glorify Him. It can be said in short: Glory to God. It is pronounced at the end of the task as a sign of our gratitude to God for His mercies to us.

Translation: Praise be to You, our God, praise be to You.

Heavenly King, Comforter, Soul of truth, Who is everywhere and fulfills everything, Treasure of good things and Giver of life, come and dwell in us, and cleanse us from all filth, and save, O Good One, our souls.

Trisagion Prayer

The Trisagion Prayer, also known as the Trisagion Hymn, is known to all Christians who have at least once attended a church service. It is often said after reading long prayers and psalms, so it is always heard. This prayer is very easy to remember because it consists of a small number of words. Some people believe that the text of the Trisagion prayer is correctly pronounced according to the Our Father, but this is not entirely true, since it is used as a direct appeal to the Lord, which means it can be said after each petition.

Origins of the Trisagion prayer

The Trisagion Prayer is one of the most ancient prayers that has reached our time in an almost unchanged version. Its origin is attributed to the ancient Christian church, according to the instructions of John Chrysostom. The first version that came into use was in Greek, but soon the text of the Trisagion prayer in Russian appeared thanks to the Archbishop of Constantinople Saint Proclus in 437-447, so it is not known for sure how long the Greek translation was used in Russian Orthodox churches.

According to church traditions, in 438, a few weeks before Easter, a strong earthquake occurred in Constantinople, right during the procession of the cross through the streets of the city. At that moment, one little boy from the crowd soared into the sky and heard the singing of angels. The angels told him a prayer - the Trisagion, which he told everyone about as soon as he descended to earth. All the people, together with the Patriarch, immediately began to sing it, adding the words “have mercy on us.” After this, the earthquake immediately stopped. Having learned about such a miracle and divine deliverance from the earthquake, Empress Pulcheria issued a decree that the Trisagion prayer should become part of daily worship.

But this is not the only version of the origin of the prayer, since other church sources say that the prayer occurred in the 5th century AD, during the Fourth Ecumenical Council. According to some ancient monks, including the 16th-century monk Job, the prayer originated from a simplification of common church chants.

It is not known for certain which of these versions is realistic. But be that as it may, the text of the prayer was changed several times over the years until it reached our time in its form.

How does the Trisagion prayer help?

The Trisagion prayer is a powerful amulet that protects a person from various adversities. Many Orthodox Christians prefer to read it along with other daily prayers. According to church leaders, this is one of the most important prayers that an Orthodox person needs to know. Since prayer involves an appeal to the face of the Holy Trinity, it can help against any ailments and anxieties. In Orthodox chronicles, there are several cases of how, after reading this prayer, various miracles occurred, including the healing of diseases.

This prayer is popularly known as: “Holy God” and is mentioned more than once in church literature. In ancient times, it was often used as parting words on a long journey. It is also used during all church services, especially on holidays, including Easter, Trinity and Christmas. Therefore, Orthodox Christians say this prayer daily.

How to read a prayer correctly

The Trisagion Prayer is best read together with other short prayers, such as the Our Father. Also, according to church covenants, before and during reading it is necessary:

  • Clear your head of worldly worries.
  • Turn to the face of the Trinity, if there is such an icon.
  • After each spoken line you need to give yourself the sign of the cross.
  • Add “Amen” at the end.

Morning prayers. The text with accents can be read and listened to.

Have mercy on me, O God, according to Your great mercy, and according to the multitude of Your compassions, cleanse my iniquity. Above all, wash me from my iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin; for I know my iniquity, and I will take away my sin before me. I have sinned against You alone and have done evil before You, so that You may be justified in Your words and triumph over Your judgment. Behold, I was conceived in iniquity, and my mother gave birth to me in sins. Behold, you have loved the truth; You have shown me Your unknown and secret wisdom. Sprinkle me with hyssop, and I will be clean; Wash me, and I will be whiter than snow. There is joy and gladness in my ears; the bones of the humble will rejoice. Turn away Your face from my sins and cleanse all my iniquities. Create a pure heart in me, O God, and renew a right spirit in my womb. Do not cast me away from Your presence and do not take Your Holy Spirit from me. Give me the joy of Your salvation and strengthen me with the Lord’s Spirit.

Then take pleasure in the sacrifice of righteousness, the offering and the burnt offering; then they will place your calf on the altar.

Let faith instead of works be imputed to me, O my God, for you will not find works to justify me. But may my faith prevail instead of all, may it answer, may it justify me, may it show me to be a partaker of Your eternal glory. May Satan not snatch me away and boast, O Word, that he has torn me away from Your hand and fence; But either I want to save me, or I don’t want to, O Christ my Savior, foretell that I will soon perish: For you are my God from my mother’s womb. Grant me, Lord, now to love Thee, as I sometimes loved that very sin; and to work again for you without laziness is as boring as you worked before to the flattering Satan. Most of all, I will serve You, my Lord and God Jesus Christ, all the days of my life, now and forever and to the ages of ages. Amen.

Ninth prayer to the Guardian Angel

Holy Angel, standing before my damned soul and my passionate life, do not forsake me, a sinner, and depart from me for my intemperance. Do not give room to the crafty demon to possess me through the violence of this mortal body; strengthen my poor and thin hand and guide me on the path of salvation. To her, holy Angel of God, guardian and patron of my accursed soul and body, forgive me everything that I have offended you with in so many ways all the days of my life, and if I sinned in this past night, cover me in the present this day, and keep me from every temptation of the enemy May I not anger God in any sin, and pray for me to the Lord, that He may strengthen me in His passion, and show me worthy as a servant of His goodness. Amen.

Prayer tenth, to the Most Holy Theotokos

My Most Holy Lady Theotokos, through Your saints and all-powerful prayers, take away from me, Your humble and accursed servant, despondency, oblivion, foolishness, negligence, and all that is filthy, bow ugly and blasphemous thoughts from my damned heart and from my darkened mind; and extinguish the flame of my passions, for I am poor and damned. And deliver me from many and cruel memories and enterprises, and free me from all evil actions. For Thou art blessed from all generations, and glorified is Thy most honorable name forever and ever. Amen.

Prayer of St. Alexander of Svirsky to the Lord God and to the Most Holy Theotokos

God, cleanse me, a sinner, and have mercy on me, and forgive me, Lord God, Gracious Savior! Grant me, Lord, a Christian end with the Most Pure Body and the Honest Blood, with tears and repentance. Deliver, O Lord, eternal torment, unquenchable fire, and never-ending worms, and boiling tar. You created me, Lord, You have mercy, Lord, I am Your creation. Most Pure Lady of Mercy, Queen of Heaven, pray to the Lord God and our Savior Jesus Christ, Your Son, for me, Your sinful servant (name)

.
Grant me, Lady, a Christian end with the Most Pure Body and Honest Blood and with tears and repentance. Deliver, O Lady, eternal torment, unquenchable fire, and never-ending worms, and boiling tar. Most Pure Lady, Merciful Queen of Heaven, You are the Prayer Book to the Lord God and our Savior Jesus Christ for me, Your sinful and accursed servant (name)
, You are the Helper, You are the Intercessor from all evil and adversary, do not forget, Most Pure Lady, Your beggar to end.

Zealous Intercessor, Compassionate Mother of the Lord, I come running to You, a wretched man and more than anyone else, a most sinful person. Listen to the voice of my prayer and hear my cry and groaning. For my iniquities have exceeded my head, and I, like a ship in the abyss, am plunging into the sea of ​​my sins. But You, All-Good and Merciful Lady, do not despise me, desperate and perishing in sins. Have mercy on me, who repent of my evil deeds, and turn my lost, accursed soul to the right path. On You, my Lady Theotokos, I place all my hope. You, Mother of God, save and keep me under Your roof now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen.

My soul, my soul, why do you complain about the Lord? As your laziness is an intercessor for eternal torment. If only I knew the gift of God, I would cry with hot tears, groaning with sighs, mourning for every sin, small and great. Cry out to your Master, so that the wrath of the one who conquers with the omnipotent and righteous hand does not precede you. But I, who am sinful and lazy and have a flattering tongue, how can I pray to my Master that the Lord will deliver me from the Last Judgment? I always tremble with thoughts in my heart about the Last Judgment, may it save me from eternal torment, and never-ending worms, and pitch darkness, and from unwarmed thunderstorms. Have mercy on me, Your sinful servant (name)

Like Paul the Apostle, whom I love more than all, and from us, the poor, do not turn Your face away on this Terrible Day, for whom my soul trembles and the limbs of my body are terrified.
Lord, deliver me from this terrible hour, so that I may not fall away from Your mercy. But I pray to the holy Angels and Archangels, and the prophets, and the martyrs, and all the saints, that they pray to God for my soul. For the sake of your prayer, may the Lord return His demands from me, a sinner. And Thou, Most Pure Lady Virgin, having boldness towards the Son for Thy servants, do not forget the labors of Thy servant (name)
, Lord Savior, from a wretched soul I pray to Thee, deliver me from the sorrow of my sins and lead me into the joy of endless life, where the all-holy name is glorified Yours, Father, and Son, and Holy Spirit, always, now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen.
