The school years are very important for a child; at this time, his character and worldview are formed. For a little person, good grades are an indicator of his importance and social success. Therefore, parents must help their child to be successful in school, in the eyes of teachers and peers.
A prayer before school for good grades, which will be read by the mother or father, can help with this. Then the child will be able to independently pray to the patron saints about his studies. My sister and I always did well in school because our grandmother taught us prayers. This works if you read it regularly and not occasionally. In this article, I will share with you powerful prayers for successful studies.
Before starting your studies
You have to finish school again, only this time with your child
Then this psalm will definitely come in handy to help you with your academic performance in the new school year.
Lord our God and Creator, who adorned us, people, with His image, taught Your chosen ones Your Law, so that those who listen to it marvel, Who revealed to children the secrets of wisdom, Who bestowed upon Solomon and all who seek it - open the hearts, minds and lips of these Your servants (names) in order to understand the power of Your Law and successfully learn the useful teaching taught by it for the glory of Your Most Holy Name, for the benefit and establishment of Your holy Church and the understanding of Your good and perfect will.
Deliver them from all the snares of the enemy, keep them in the faith of Christ and purity all the time of their lives, - may they be strong in mind and in fulfilling Your commandments and so taught, glorify Your Most Holy Name and be heirs of Your Kingdom, - for You, God, are strong by mercy and goodness and strength, and all glory, honor and worship is due to You, to the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, always, now and ever, and unto the ages of ages. Amen.
If learning is difficult
Getting good grades at school or college is important not only for students, but also for their parents. This increases self-esteem and desire for heights of success, motivates for further achievement and can help gain authority among peers.
If you personally or your child has difficulty studying, this appeal is what you need. A prayer service is offered to St. John Chrysostom.
Oh, great saint John Chrysostom! You have received many and varied gifts from the Lord, and as a good and faithful servant, you have multiplied all the talents given to you for good: for this reason, you were truly a universal teacher, as every age and every rank learns from you.
Behold, you appeared as an image of obedience to the youth, a luminary of chastity to the young, a teacher of hard work to the husband, a teacher of kindness to the old, a teacher of abstinence to the monk, an inspired leader from God to those who pray, an enlightener of the mind to those who seek wisdom, an inexhaustible source of living words to those who are kind-hearted, to those who do good. - a star of mercy, to those in command - a wise image of rule, a zealot of truth - an inspirer of boldness, a mentor of truth for the persecuted - patience: you were everything to everyone, and you saved everyone.
Over all of these you have acquired love, which is a union of perfection, and with that, as if by the power of the Divine, you have united all the gifts in your soul into one, and the reconciling love shared here, in the interpretation of the words of the apostles, you preached to all the faithful.
We are sinners, we each have our own talent, we are not imams of unity of spirit in the union of peace, but we are vainglorious, irritating each other, envious of each other: for this reason, our division, divided not into peace and salvation, but into enmity and condemnation, has turned over to us.
Moreover, we fall to you, the saint of God, servants of God (names), overwhelmed by discord, and in contrition of heart we ask: with your prayers drive away from our hearts all pride and envy that divides us, so that in many places we may remain one church body without restraint, so that In the words of your prayer, let us love each other and with one mind confess the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, the Trinity, Consubstantial and Indivisible, now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen.
Prayer to John of Kronstadt about teaching
John of Kronstadt studied all his life and taught others. He left behind great works that have not yet been fully studied. It is he who, like no one else, understands students and is able to support and strengthen them on the thorny path to knowledge.
O great servant of Christ, holy and righteous Father John of Kronstadt, wondrous shepherd, quick helper and merciful representative!
Raising praise to the Triune God, you prayerfully cried out: “Your name is Love: do not reject me, who am erring.
Your name is Strength: strengthen me, who is weak and falling.
Your name is Light: enlighten my soul, darkened by worldly passions.
Your name is Peace: pacify my restless soul.
Your name is Mercy: do not cease to have mercy on me.”
Now the all-Russian flock, grateful to Your intercession, prays to You: Christ-named and righteous servant of God!
With your love, illumine us, sinners and weaklings, grant us the ability to bear worthy fruits of repentance and to partake of the Holy Mysteries of Christ without condemnation.
With your power, strengthen our faith in us, support us in prayer, heal ailments and illnesses, deliver us from misfortunes, visible and invisible enemies.
With the light of your face, incite the servants and heads of the altar of Christ to perform holy deeds of pastoral work, grant education to infants, instruct youth, support old age, illuminate the shrines of churches and holy abodes.
Die, O most wonderful miracle worker and prophet, the peoples of our country, by the grace and gift of the Holy Spirit, deliver them from internecine strife;
Collect the squandered, convert the deceived, and unite the Holy Ones of Your Catholic and Apostolic Church.
By your grace, preserve marriage in peace and unanimity, grant prosperity and blessings to monastics in good deeds, grant comfort to the faint-hearted, freedom for suffering unclean spirits, have mercy in the needs and circumstances of our lives, and guide us all on the path of salvation.
In Christ living, our Father John, lead us to the unevening light of eternal life, so that with you we may be worthy of eternal bliss, praising and exalting God forever and ever. Amen.
Prayer for a schoolchild
Prayer for academic success to Sergius of Radonezh video
Oh, sacred head, reverend and God-bearing Father Sergius, through your prayer, and faith and love for God, and purity of heart,
while still on earth in the monastery of the Most Holy Trinity, you established your soul, and was granted angelic communion and the visitation of the Most Holy Theotokos, and received the gift of miraculous grace,
After your departure from the earthly, you drew closer to God and partook of the heavenly powers, but did not retreat from us in the spirit of your love, and your honest power, like a vessel of grace, full and overflowing, was left to us!
Having great boldness towards the All-Merciful Master, pray to save His servants, His grace existing in you, believing and flowing to you with love.
Ask us from our Greatly Gifted God every gift that is useful to everyone and everyone:
observance of the immaculate faith, establishment of our cities, pacification of peace, deliverance from famine and destruction, preservation from the invasion of foreigners, consolation for the afflicted, healing for the sick, restoration for the fallen, return to the path of truth and salvation for those who have gone astray,
strengthening for those who strive, prosperity and blessing for those who do good in good deeds, education for children, instruction for the young, admonition for the ignorant, intercession for orphans and widows, departing from this temporary life for the eternal, good preparation and guidance,
blessed repose for those who have departed, and grant all of us, through your prayers, to be delivered on the day of the Last Judgment, and to be partakers of the land, and to hear that blessed voice of the Lord Christ:
“Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.”
Amen.
Prayer to Spyridon of Trimifuntsky for help in studies
A saint who responds to sincere prayer about all everyday matters is Spyridon of Trimythous. To be honest, I ask him with tears, and he will provide all possible and timely help in his studies.
O blessed Saint Spyridon!
Beg the mercy of God, the Lover of Mankind, not to judge us for our iniquities, but to deal with us according to His mercy.
Ask us, God's servants (names), from Christ and God for our peaceful, serene life, mental and physical health.
Deliver us from all spiritual and physical troubles, from all yearnings and the devil’s slander.
Remember us at the throne of the Almighty and beg the Lord to grant us forgiveness for many of our sins, grant us a comfortable and peaceful life, and grant us a shameless and peaceful death and eternal bliss in the future, so that we may continually send glory and thanksgiving to the Father and the Son and the Spirit Holy, now and ever, and unto ages of ages. Amen.
Which saints help in learning
First of all, Orthodox believers, regardless of age and life problems, turn to the Lord, the Mother of God. The guardian angel given at baptism is not only a protector from evil people, but also an assistant in good deeds, including teaching a child.
There are saints whose prayers are intended to help in the comprehension of sciences. Saint Sergius of Radonezh is often asked about this. In his youth, he was not good at teaching, and the boy began to ask the Lord every day to help him overcome difficulties. One day an angel appeared to him in human form and promised that his request would be fulfilled.
John of Kronstadt faced similar difficulties in mastering the school curriculum in his childhood. His parents spent their last money on his education, and the boy was the most unsuccessful in his class. Diligent prayers to God helped him become the best student in school. People turn to the image of a saint in order to better assimilate knowledge.
People turn to Saint Nicholas with all sorts of requests. He will not leave those who know science without help. They pray to Saint Spyridon of Trimythous for help in passing exams.
Prayers to increase your mind for studying
Matrona of Moscow
O blessed mother Matrono, hear and accept us now, sinners, praying to you, who in all your life has learned to receive and listen to all those who suffer and mourn, with faith and hope who resort to your intercession and help, giving quick help and miraculous healing to everyone;
May your mercy not fail now for us, unworthy, restless in this busy world and nowhere finding consolation and compassion in spiritual sorrows and help in physical illnesses:
heal our illnesses, deliver us from the temptations and torment of the devil, who passionately fights, help us to carry our everyday Cross, to bear all the hardships of life and not to lose the image of God in it,
preserve the Orthodox faith until the end of our days, have strong trust and hope in God and unfeigned love for our neighbors;
help us, after departing from this life, to achieve the Kingdom of Heaven with all those who please God, glorifying the mercy and goodness of the Heavenly Father, glorified in the Trinity, the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, forever and ever.
Amen.
Kontakion, tone 6
The representation of Christians is unashamed, the intercession to the Creator is immutable, do not despise the voices of sinful prayers, but advance, as the Good One, to the aid of us who faithfully call upon Ty; hasten to prayer and strive to supplicate, ever presenting the Mother of God to those who honor Thee.
Translation: The protection of Christians is reliable, Intercession to the Creator is unchangeable! Do not despise the prayerful voices of sinners, but come quickly, as the Good One, to the aid of us who call upon You with faith: “Hasten with your intercession and hasten your prayer, Mother of God, always protecting those who honor You!”
Prayer for a child’s success in school
Prayer to the Most Holy Theotokos in front of the “Increase in Mind” icon
One of the well-known images that people turn to for help in their studies is the icon of the Most Holy Theotokos “Increasing the Mind.” This miraculous image is located in the Tikhvin Church in Moscow. Schoolchildren, students and parents with children come to him to get good luck in their studies, as well as in spiritual education and upbringing of children.
It is believed that this icon symbolizes the highest wisdom and intelligence.
Most Pure Mother of God, the house that the Wisdom of God created for Himself, the Giver of spiritual gifts, raising our minds from the world to the worldly and leading everyone to the knowledge of reason!
Receive prayerful singing from us, Thy unworthy servants, who bow with faith and tenderness before Thy most pure image.

Amen.
Behavior in the temple
In the House of God it is not accepted:
- having conversations distracts parishioners from prayer;
- praying and singing out loud, singing along with the choir - prevents the “neighbors” from following the progress of the service;
- light candles on a candlestick during the reading of the Gospel, the singing of the Cherubim and the Eucharistic canon at the liturgy.
You should buy candles, order prayer services and magpies, and purchase literature on the eve of the Divine service, and not during it.
During congregational prayer, when parishioners kneel, you need to take the same position.
You cannot keep your hands in your pockets or chew gum.
When you come to church with children, you should monitor their behavior and avoid self-indulgence. You cannot bring animals and birds to the temple.
It is inappropriate to leave church before the end of the service; this can only be done by sick people and those for whom early departure is too necessary.
Handling Icons
Prayer before the icon
When entering the church hall, you should venerate the icon lying in the center on the lectern. Usually this is an icon of a holiday or saint whose memory is honored on this day.
First, you should make the sign of the cross on yourself twice, bow, kiss the icon and cross yourself again.
A parishioner should not kiss all the icons of the church and the iconostasis; only the bishop should do this.
Prayer for student son to study
Guardian Angel
They pray to the Holy Guardian Angel so that he will protect from evil forces and send down heavenly grace. Making the sign of the cross, this short prayer can be said before the start of an exam or test.
Holy angel of Christ, faithful servant of God, warrior of His heavenly army, I appeal to you in prayer, crossing myself with the holy cross.
Send me heavenly grace to my spiritual strength and grant me meaning and understanding, so that I may carefully listen to the godly teaching that the teacher conveys to us, and my mind will grow enormously for the glory of the Lord, people and the Holy Orthodox Church for the benefit.
I ask you this, angel of Christ. Amen.
How to correctly read prayers before studying
Prayer is spiritual communication with the Lord. In Orthodoxy, there is a prayer rule that regulates the behavior of Orthodox Christians. It means that you should not pray according to your mood or when problems arise. Service to God must be carried out according to the Church Charter.
The prayer is read after sleep, before bed, before and after meals, before starting any task. For a schoolchild, work means studying for several years. Observing the prayer rule, he must pray daily, because in religious life it is necessary to adhere to constancy and discipline.
Fulfilling the rule should not turn into a thoughtless repetition of established prayers, like a student memorizing laws from the school curriculum that are not fully understood. The prayer must be read slowly, preferably in a low voice, listening and pondering the content of the text.
Before starting a prayer appeal, you need to calm down and concentrate on the prayer service. Children cannot read the complete prayer rule. With the help of his godfather or mother, with the blessing of the priest, he can select 2-3 prayers from the prayer book for daily prayer to the Higher powers.
The Church Slavonic text is difficult for modern people to understand. For better perception, a dictionary of Church Slavonic words is needed.
Prayers are divided into:
- petitions;
- repentant;
- thanksgiving;
- doxological.
Godparents must explain to their spiritual children that they must turn to God not only with requests, but also be sure to thank Him for all the good things in life.
The image chosen for daily prayer should be in the child’s room. The icon is placed in the eastern part of the room, on a separate shelf. The holy image should not be placed next to the computer, TV, or bookshelves.
Before starting the prayer, you must light a consecrated candle in front of the image. Read the “Our Father,” cross yourself three times and begin the main prayer. At the end of the prayer service, cross yourself and bow again.
Prayer for wisdom in study
Prayer to St. Tatiana
Saint Tatiana is considered the patroness of all students. It is not for nothing that Student’s Day in our country is celebrated on Tatiana’s Day. They pray to her to strengthen and gain peace of mind and mental strength. Moreover, the prayer can be read both by the students themselves and by parents whose son or daughter has difficulty comprehending science.
Oh, holy martyr Tatiano, bride of your Sweetest Bridegroom Christ!
Lamb of the Divine Lamb, dove of chastity, fragrant body covered with suffering like royal robes, included in the face of Heaven, now rejoicing in eternal glory, from the days of her youth a servant of the Church of God, observing chastity and loving the Lord above all good things!
We pray to you and we ask you: heed the petitions of our hearts and do not reject our prayers, grant purity of body and soul, inhale love for Divine truths, lead us onto a virtuous path, ask God for angelic protection for us, heal our wounds and ulcers, youth protect us, grant us a painless and comfortable old age, help us in the hour of death, remember our sorrows and grant us joy, visit us who are in the prison of sin, instruct us in repentance quickly, kindle the flame of prayer, do not leave us orphans, let your suffering be glorifying, we send praise to the Lord , now and ever, and unto ages of ages. Amen.
Who can you pray to?
Exams can be taken not only by college or higher education institutions, but also by students at school to obtain a driver’s license. The prayer for successful passing can be made by both the student himself and his parents. Wherever the child studies, at school or college, parents worry about him.
Matrona’s mother’s prayer for help in passing the exam is very helpful. But it is important not only to rely on the Lord, but to control their studies and instill in children a love of work.
You can pray except Matrona:
- Guardian Angel;
- Mother of God;
- Sergei Radonezhsky;
- Nicholas the Wonderworker.
Matrona of Moscow was an illiterate, but sensitive woman. Life did not give her the opportunity to comprehend science; she was blind from birth. Matrona knew all the prayers by heart. She responded to any requests and helped some with advice, some with guidance. For her good deeds to people, she fell into the category of Saints.
Prayer "First of September"
Are you worried about the success in the education of your son or daughter? A prayer to the Most Holy Cosmas and Damian will help you achieve success in your studies without difficulty. To do this, by the first of September, go with your children to the nearest church, place candles on the altar and read this text:
To you, holy wonderworkers Cosmas and Damian, I turn to you with a bow and a request.
Help, generous ones, in the teaching of my daughter (daughter’s name).
Help her get comfortable in a new place, find faithful and kind friends, let everything that is said be assimilated, let things get done quickly, let her learn good things and let the bad things fly by.
In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Cyril and Methodius
The holy brothers Cyril and Methodius, at the direction of the Almighty, compiled the Slavic alphabet and translated many liturgical books from Hebrew, including the Gospel and the Psalter.
About the glorification of the language of the Slovenian teachers and educators, the holy Equal-to-the-Apostles Methodius and Cyril.
To you, as children of your father, enlightened by the light of your teachings and writings and instructed in the faith of Christ, we now earnestly resort to you and pray in contrition of our hearts.

We know, we know, how much the prayer of a righteous person can do for the mercy of the Lord, even if it is offered for sinful people.
Do not forsake us, your sad and unworthy children, whose sin for the sake of your flock, gathered by you, is divided by enmity and seduced by temptations from the Gentiles, has diminished, its verbal sheep are scattered, admired from mental wolves, give us zeal for Orthodoxy through your prayers, Let us warm ourselves with it, preserve the traditions of our fathers well, faithfully observe the statutes and customs of the Church, let us run away from all strange false teachings, and so, in a life pleasing to God on earth, we will be worthy of the life of paradise in heaven, and there together with you we will glorify the Lord of all, in the Trinity of the One God forever and ever. Amen!

Yes, having lived in peace and piety in this world, we will be worthy to partake of eternal blessings in the Kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, to whom honor and worship are due, with His Beginning Father and the Most Holy Spirit, forever and ever. Amen.
Martyr Neophytos
You can offer a psalm to Neophyte every day: both before and after school. This is a great way to master and consolidate new acquired knowledge.
Holy God and rest in the saints, glorified by the thrice-holy voice in heaven from Angels, praised on earth by man in His saints: having given grace to each by Thy Holy Spirit according to the bestowal of Christ, and by that ordaining Thy holy Church to be Apostles, prophets, and evangelists , you are shepherds and teachers, preaching in their own words.

Prayer for children who have difficulty learning
There are smart children, but they do not perceive learning at school well, either due to their character, or upbringing, or do not fit into the environment. As a rule, with the right approach to them, they begin to study better. May this prayer help them:
Lord Jesus Christ, our God, who truly dwelt in the hearts of the twelve apostles and by the power of the grace of the All-Holy Spirit, who descended in the form of tongues of fire, opened their mouths, so that they began to speak in other dialects, - Himself, Lord Jesus Christ, our God, sent down Thy Holy Spirit upon this youth (this young woman) (name), and plant in his (her) heart the Holy Scripture, which Thy most pure hand inscribed on the tablets of the lawgiver Moses, now and ever and unto the ages of ages. Amen.
Appearance of entering the temple
A parishioner's clothing should be modest and clean. The tone of the vestments should be chosen in calm colors; “screaming” clothes are not needed in church. Sometimes it is recommended to wear clothes of certain colors, for example: light vestments and a red scarf (for women) for Easter, dark clothes during Lent.
Prayer
For confession and communion, ladies need to wear a skirt, but its length should not exceed the knee. Necklines and transparent fabric should be avoided on a jacket or blouse. Shoes should be comfortable, because you have to stand for a long time during services.
Important things about the outside:
- Can a woman wear trousers?
- Why should a woman wear a headscarf in church?
- What is the epitrachelion of a priest?
It is not recommended to use cosmetics, especially lipstick - in the temple they apply their lips to the faces of saints, the crucifix and the hand of the clergyman.
Men are not allowed to come in shorts, T-shirts, or tracksuits.
Thanksgiving Prayer
But now all the worries are over, the exam or test has been passed. With God's help, of course. Therefore, it is worth thanking the Heavenly Forces for sending reason, confidence and intelligence.
We thank You, Creator, for You have made us worthy of Your grace to listen to the teaching. Bless our leaders, parents and teachers, who lead us to the knowledge of good, and give us strength and strength to continue this teaching. Amen.
I would like to remind you once again that the Lord hears those who sincerely and with an open heart turn to him. Prayers for study should not turn into a pagan ritual and be shrouded in some kind of esoteric flair. Only an honest conversation with God can help those in need.
Before important educational events, it will not be superfluous to repent of your sins, take communion, and cleanse your soul of extraneous thoughts.
