Prayers and conspiracies from Vanga for wealth
Prayers to attract wealth into life from the Bulgarian healer Vanga are in great demand.
The great soothsayer never denied the importance of financial well-being in a person’s life
Raising money
In order to attract money into life, it is necessary not only to read a prayer, but also to perform a special ritual. First of all, the day before the money ceremony, visit the temple and collect blessed water there.
The ritual takes place early in the morning at sunrise
It is important not to eat or drink anything before the ceremony, and you should not wash your face. In a separate room, completely alone, you should place a glass of blessed water and a plate with a slice of black bread on the table in front of you.
The following prayer is said over these attributes:
“I, the Servant of God (proper name), know that my Lord fed all the hungry with a piece of bread. So I know it will help my family too. I ask you, Lord, to make sure that we do not know need, that there is always food in our house, and that prosperity reigns. I ask, Almighty and Merciful God, to show me the path to wealth, which will be for my good. I will humbly accept all your decisions and glorify you, and my wealth will not harm others. Amen".
This prayer must be repeated three times. You can’t stammer, so it’s better to memorize the text first. Then you need to break off a piece of bread and eat it, wash it down with holy water. The remaining bread should be broken and distributed to your family members.
To quickly return the money debt
To return the money that was borrowed from you, you need to use the following prayer of the Great Healer. Prayer words are said immediately before bed with a lit church candle.
They sound like this:
“Lord Almighty and Almighty, I ask You for help, Servant of God (proper name). My desire is not to enrich myself, but to guide my debtor, the Servant of God (name of the debtor), on the true path. Direct, Lord, with your hand on the right righteous path, so that he can quickly resolve his worldly problems and honor him with a blessed life. For myself, I only ask for the repayment of the debt, which will help me overcome worldly difficulties. Everything is Your will. Amen".
It is better to read this prayer in the morning and evening until the debt is repaid.
To find a high paying job
The seer Vanga offered many prayers so that a person could call good luck into his own life. Texts that help you find a well-paid job are still in great demand today. You need to pray to your Guardian Angel during the waxing moon. When pronouncing words, you must sincerely believe that they will be effective.
The ritual consists of taking a glass of blessed water in your hands and saying the following words:
“Bright Guardian Angel looking at me from heaven. I, the Servant of God (proper name), bow before your sincerity and purity. Help me, hear my request. Help me find a high-paying job and earn money. Help me succeed in life not for the sake of evil intent, but so that my life is filled with peace and prosperity. Bright Guardian Angel, your help is very important to me and my fate depends on it. I pray for the sake of all that is holy, grant me good luck. Amen".
Any prayers for money will be effective only if they are read by a sincere believer. It should be remembered that you should not resort to magic even in the most difficult financial situations, because this is a sin that will take a very long time to atone for.

According to God, all my hope and hope of salvation is in You, and I entrust myself to Your protection and intercession forever.

Prayer to Sergius of Radonezh for the health of the child
O Heavenly citizen of Jerusalem, Rev. Father Sergius!
Look upon us mercifully and lead those who are devoted to the earth to the heights of Heaven.
You are a mountain in Heaven;
We, on the earth below, are removed from you not only by place, but by our sins and iniquities;
but to you, as one who is related to us, we resort and cry:
instruct us to walk in your way, enlighten us and guide us.
It is characteristic of you, Our Father, to have compassion and love for mankind:
Living on earth, you should not only care about your own salvation, but also about everyone who comes to you.
Your instructions were with the reed of a scribe, a cursive writer, who inscribes the verbs of life on everyone’s heart.
You did not only heal bodily illnesses, but more than spiritual ones, you appeared as an graceful physician;
and your whole holy life will be a mirror of every virtue.
Even if you were so much holy than God on earth, how much more are you now in Heaven!
Today you stand before the Throne of the Unapproachable Light and in it, like in a mirror, see all our needs and petitions;
You are together with the Angels, rejoicing over the one sinner who repents.
And God’s love for mankind is inexhaustible, and your boldness towards Him is great; do not stop crying to the Lord for us.
By your intercession, ask our All-Merciful God for the peace of His Church, under the sign of the militant cross, agreement in faith and unity of wisdom,
destruction of vanities and schisms, affirmation in good deeds, healing for the sick, consolation for the sad, intercession for the offended, help for the needy.
Do not disgrace us, who come to you with faith.
Even though we are unworthy of such a father and intercessor, you, being an imitator of God’s love for mankind, make us worthy by turning from evil deeds to good living.
All God-enlightened Russia, filled with your miracles and blessed by your mercies, confesses that you are their patron and intercessor.
Show your ancient mercies and those whom your father helped, do not reject us, their children, who are marching towards you in their footsteps.
We believe that you are present with us in spirit.
Where the Lord is, as His word teaches us, there His servant will be.
You are a faithful servant of the Lord, and I exist everywhere with God, you are in Him, and He is in you, and moreover, you are with us in body.
Behold your incorruptible and life-giving relics, like a priceless treasure, may God grant us miracles.
Before them, as I live on dry land, we fall down and pray:
Accept our prayers and offer them up on the altar of God’s mercy, so that we may receive grace from you and timely help in our needs.
Strengthen our cowardice and confirm us in faith, so that we undoubtedly hope to receive all the good things from the mercy of the Master through your prayers.
Do not stop guiding your spiritual flock, gathered by you, with the rod of spiritual wisdom:
Help those who struggle, raise up the weakened, hasten to bear the yoke of Christ in complacency and patience, and guide us all in peace and repentance, end our lives and settle with hope in the blessed bosom of Abraham,
where you now rest joyfully after your labors and struggles, glorifying God with all the saints, glorified in the Trinity, the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
Prayer to Saint Spyridon of Trimythous for financial well-being and money
Finding themselves in the difficult situation of complete lack of money, believers often wonder: can higher powers help them overcome material adversity and return to a state of prosperity and security? Although churches always encourage their parishioners to care more about the spiritual than to be burdened by mortal thoughts about finances, Orthodox prayers for money still exist.
In Orthodox Christianity, every area of a person’s life is under the protection of its own saint. The one who is turned to in poverty, in case of material instability, failures in work and other worldly deprivations, is Saint Spyridon of Trimythous.
The life path of a saint and miracles performed
Saint Spyridon, or Bishop of Salamis, lived on earth almost eighteen centuries ago, but, despite this, history has preserved many facts about the personal life and good deeds of the miracle worker. He was born around 270 on the island of Cyprus into a wealthy shepherd family.
From childhood, he led a lifestyle similar to the biblical righteous: he was quiet and meek, hardworking, often gave shelter to strangers, the homeless and the hungry, and lent money to the poor. He never refused anyone who asked and did not demand the repayment of the debt on time. “You will return it when you can,” Saint Spyridon addressed these words to everyone who came to him for help and support.
In his youth, the future clergyman met an intelligent, modest girl and married her. A child appeared in the family, but their calm and serene life did not last long - Spiridon’s wife soon died. This event completely changed the life of the young shepherd. He forgave the debts of all his debtors, distributed what he had acquired over the years of continuous work to the poor and set off to wander around the world. Legends say that during his wanderings the saint performed many amazing miracles.
Even before he left his earthly monastery, the Bishop of Salamis was famous for the divine power bestowed upon him by heaven. He raised those broken by illness to their feet, drove out possessed demons, knew how to heal the soul and body of a person, dominated the natural elements and even revived the dead. Without knowing science or education, from birth he had a subtle mind, foresaw the hidden vices of people and always encouraged them to repent of their offenses before the Holy Scriptures and cleanse themselves of sin.
- You can ask the saint for financial well-being, business prosperity, increased income
- Reading a prayer will help you profitably buy, sell or exchange an apartment, car or other property
- Helps resolve legal issues
- Support in finding employment and finding a better place to work
A prayer for material well-being is read primarily to attract money to the house, so it should be remembered that only a justified request for material benefits will be heard by higher powers and will bring the desired result.

In Kerkyra, in the church of St. Spyridon, we asked the priest for a blessing to collect oil from the lamp at the shrine with the relics of the saint. The group believed that it was better than store-bought. We took the oil with a syringe and poured it into bottles we had prepared in advance.
The group was large, everyone was crowding together, trying to quickly gather, someone carelessly touched the lamp, and the remaining oil spilled. Everyone was very upset because of our awkwardness, but one woman was especially upset - she was last in line and she didn’t get a single drop
I decided that I would pour her some of mine. She was holding an empty bottle in her hands, and it suddenly began to fill up on its own! This happened in front of our entire group, so there were a lot of witnesses to this miracle. We were all literally shocked. On the bus we remembered the incident when St. Spyridon’s lamp filled itself. All things are possible for God and His saints.
I thank the Lord and Saint Spyridon for allowing me to witness this miracle!

I, sinful and unworthy of r. Elena of God, in 2002, she tried for a long time to exchange a one-room apartment for a two-room apartment. There were many problems, because... they offered places that were far from the metro or expensive. One day my sister (she serves in the temple) called me and asked how I was doing. I replied that nothing was working out. Then she advised me to order a water-blessing prayer service to St. Spyridon of Trimifunt, which I did. Literally a week later we were offered an excellent option at a reasonable price. The move was scheduled for December 25, the saint’s feast day. Through the prayers of St. Spyridon, everything worked out for us. I think about this often and am very grateful to him. Thank God for everything!
Saint Spyridon of Trimifuntsky, pray to God for us.
In 2007, the relics of St. Spyridon were brought to the Danilovsky Monastery in Moscow. More than 1,300,000 Russians came to venerate the relics of the saint. Here are the stories of some of them, published in the book “Saint Spyridon of Trimifuntsky” published by the Danilovsky Monastery.
A pregnant woman came to the right hand of Saint Spyridon at the Danilov Monastery. She said that she and her husband dreamed of a child, she visited many doctors, but for seven years their marriage remained fruitless. They prayed to St. Spyridon and other saints, and, contrary to the predictions of doctors, a miracle happened.
The woman came to thank the saint.
We advise you to study the Icon of the Mother of God “Seeking the Lost”

One financial structure bought a non-operating sanatorium in the Moscow region. On its territory there is a temple and the abbot’s house. Unexpectedly, the new owner decided to build a parking lot on the site of the priest’s house. He did not make concessions and did not even want to discuss this issue. The priest’s large family was faced with a fact: the house would be demolished and a parking lot would be built. The priest turned to Saint Spyridon with prayer, and the saint did not leave him.
Arriving at the Danilov Monastery to the relics of St. Spyridon, the priest met a man who turned out to be a friend of the new owner of the sanatorium; this man was very surprised by the behavior of his friend and promised to help. After some time, he and the owner of the territory came to the priest for a conversation to resolve the current situation.

On Sunday, April 22, I went to the Danilov Monastery for the Feast of the Myrrh-Bearing Women. And when approaching the monastery, by chance (although there is nothing accidental in this world) I find out that the relics of Spyridon of Trimythous were brought to the monastery (I rarely watch TV and didn’t know about this). What a blessing it is that I visited the monastery that day and venerated the relics!
And the next day, Monday, April 23, our youngest son called us, and I joyfully told him that the relics of St. Spyridon had been brought to Moscow and I was in the Danilov Monastery on Sunday. My son says to me in such a tired, sick voice: “Pray, mom, for my salvation.” It turns out they were on the water and capsized. God bless! Everyone floated out, everyone was alive and well.
And I, not knowing about it, went to the monastery the day before, when something led me there. Indeed, the ways of the Lord are mysterious!
On Tuesday, April 24, I went to the monastery again. I ordered a prayer service of thanks to the Lord Jesus Christ for saving my son’s life and a prayer service to Saint Spyridon of Trimifunt from my parents.
Instructions for parents of a sick child
- When a child is sick, parents suffer greatly and worry about it. However, don't despair. You need to pull yourself together and fulfill your duty to the maximum.
- In the morning, be sure to give your child holy water - this will give him strength to fight the disease.
- Pray next to your baby so that he sees your love and care.
- Order prosphora from the church and give it to your child with holy water in the morning on an empty stomach.
- Attend all liturgies with your child, give him communion as often as possible and raise him in the Orthodox faith.
Prayer for children is not a way to solve a specific problem. This is the responsibility of every loving mother who thinks about her child every minute. We need to thank the Lord every day and ask him for mercy and help in difficult times.
Prayers to Spyridon of Trimifuntsky about money, well-being and work
And although it is customary to ask the saints for health and happiness, there are still prayers to Spyridon of Trimythous for money and well-being, and for work, which help in financial matters. Spiridon Trimifunsky will help families find long-awaited housing, stable income and high income in the business they have started. The only remark is that after receiving what you want, the icon of this saint must be given to other people in need, so that they can also ask for help, since he rarely helps selfish people.
Prayer to Saint Spyridon of Trimythous for money and well-being
You need to wake up before the sun rises, open the window, close your eyes and say a prayer, while imagining how money is falling on you like rain or you are building a wall out of it. Carry out this ritual every day until the financial problem is resolved positively.
“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 To the Holy Spirit, now and ever, and unto ages of ages. Amen".
Prayer for good work to Saint Spyridon of Trimythous
It’s good when money appears out of nowhere, but fate rarely gives such a gift, so the main dream of people who are not afraid of work is to find a decent and well-paid one. They will be helped in this by a prayer addressed to Saint Spyridon of Trimythous, which must be said to those who are still in search every morning, as well as immediately before the doors of the office where the interview will take place. It will also help people who have found their calling, but are dissatisfied with the payment for it. They need to pronounce the words below, sitting down at their workplace and starting to complete the task. This prayer is similar to the previous one, but some words have been added that will help in realizing your plans.
“O blessed Saint Spyridon! Beg the mercy of God, the Lover of Mankind, not to judge me for my iniquities, but to deal with me according to His mercy. Ask me, God's servant Anna, from Christ and God for my peaceful, serene life, mental and physical health. Deliver me from all spiritual and physical troubles, from all yearnings and the devil’s slander. Remember me at the throne of the Almighty and beg the Lord to grant me forgiveness for many of my sins, grant me a comfortable and peaceful life, and grant me a shameless and peaceful death and eternal bliss in the future, may I continually send glory and thanksgiving to the Father and the Son and the Spirit Holy, now and ever, and unto ages of ages. Amen. Help me, Most Blessed Saint Spyridon, to find a good job. I thank you, blessed Saint Spyridon, for your goodness!”
Prayer to the Blessed Virgin Mary for the health of the child
O Most Holy Lady Virgin Theotokos, save and preserve under Your shelter my children (names), all youths, young women and infants, baptized and nameless and carried in their mother’s womb.
Cover them with the robe of Your motherhood, keep them in the fear of God and in obedience to their parents, pray to my Lord and Your Son to grant them what is useful for their salvation.
I entrust them to Your maternal supervision, for You are the Divine Protection of Your servants.
Mother of God, introduce me to the image of Your heavenly motherhood.
Heal the mental and physical wounds of my children (names) caused by my sins.
I entrust my child entirely to my Lord Jesus Christ and Your, Most Pure, heavenly protection.
Amen.
Why not all prayer requests relate to health
Reading the statutory prayers adds the voice of the person asking to the voice of the Church and makes the prayer stronger.
Prayer book
The statutory prayers included in the Akathist Book and Prayer Book contain various petitions. At the beginning, the prayer remembers the miracles of St. Spyridon, performed in defense of the Orthodox faith.
Then the saint’s lifetime and posthumous miracles, known to the entire Orthodox world, are listed. By pronouncing these words, the prayer puts himself among the witnesses of the miraculous deeds of the Saint and glorifies God.
The final part of the prayer contains the requests of the person praying. First, the patient asks for “forgiveness of many sins”, then “peaceful living” - not to create new evils, and “a shameless death, eternal bliss” - the main goal of Christian life. These divine gifts form the basis of the spiritual and physical health of the supplicant.
Specific requests to the Saint are not included in the text, but are pronounced at the end of the main rule. By this, the prayer confirms submission to the will of God, readiness to accept any decision from Him.
It should be remembered: when the Saint’s daughter became mortally ill, he did not try to heal her with prayer, although he often did this for others. The saint knew that God had willed it this way.
What else to pray to the Saint for?
Saint Spyridon of Trimifuntsky is a strong prayer book at the throne of God. In addition to the gift of healing, he received from God the grace to pray for those in difficult financial situations, although he himself lived modestly and poorly.
There are many known cases of miraculous assistance in purchasing housing, finding lost things, and protection in military conflicts. The only thing that the Saint does not tolerate is the distortion of the Orthodox faith.
In Russia, the veneration of the Trimifuntsky Saint has been known since the 16th century, when Ivan the Terrible built a monastery in his honor. The appearance of the Saint predicted his victory in the Kazan campaign. Currently, in different cities of the country there are 44 churches dedicated to Spyridon of Trimythous.
Prayer to Spyridon of Trimifuntsky for health
Second prayer of the Kazan Mother of God for healing
Oh, Most Holy Lady and Lady Theotokos!
With fear, faith and love, falling before Your honorable icon, we pray to You: do not turn Your face away from those who come running to You.
Pray, merciful Mother, to Thy Son and our God, the Lord Jesus Christ, to preserve our country peacefully and to keep His holy Church unshakable from unbelief, heresies and schism.
There are no imams of any other help, no imams of other hope, unless You, Most Pure Virgin, are You the all-powerful Helper and Intercessor of Christians.
Deliver all who pray to You with faith from the falls of sin, from the slander of evil people, from all temptations, sorrows, troubles and from vain death.
Grant us a spirit of contrition, humility of heart, purity of thoughts, correction of sinful lives and remission of sins,
May we all praise Thy greatness with gratitude, let us be worthy of the Heavenly Kingdom, and there, with all the saints, let us glorify the Most Honorable and Magnificent Name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
