According to the Christian worldview, man is a three-part being: spirit, soul and body. The physical shell, designed by God as a perfect mechanism, often suffers from the consequences of the Fall. They manifest themselves in the form of diseases. Modern medicine cannot yet cope with oncology, such a diagnosis sounds like a death sentence. Many turn to God in prayer as a last resort. And it happens that even in hopeless cases, the terrible illness recedes.

Who needs to pray for cancer?
The course of cancer is unpredictable - this is its danger. Today the patient is in a state of stable remission, but tomorrow everything can change. Many experts note a direct dependence of the patient’s physical condition on the spiritual mood. A person who does not give up and does not give up has a greater chance of surviving. This is why people often turn to faith when they have cancer.
There are a number of saints to whom you should pray:
- Saint Luke of Crimea (Voino-Yasenetsky);
- Saint Longinus the Centurion;
- Great Martyr Healer Panteleimon;
- Saint Athanasius of Athos;
- The Mother of God is near the image of “The All-Tsarina”.
It is better to say prayers that are compiled by the Holy Orthodox Church.
Health conspiracies
Strong conspiracies for a person’s recovery help to cope with many ailments. Healing magic enables seriously ill patients to overcome despair and gain faith. The following conspiracies can be read for serious illnesses, especially for oncology.
A very powerful spell for gaining health
This conspiracy is read over a sick person by placing hands on his head, spine or sore spot. A container of holy water is placed nearby and a church candle is lit.
Holy water should be given to the sick person to drink.
The patient is given holy water to drink, and the remainder is added to the drink.
Strong prayer to the Mother of God for recovery from cancer
All-merciful, venerable Mother of God, Pantanassa, All-Queen! I am not worthy, but come under my roof! But as a merciful and gracious Mother of God, say the word, may my soul be healed and my weak body strengthened. You have an invincible power, and all your words will not fail, O All-Tsaritsa! Beg for me! You begged for me. May I glorify Your glorious name always, now and forever. Amen.
But no one can prohibit you from personally turning to the Savior after the prayer service, sharing your experiences and doubts. There is nothing shameful in this - and Christ had ordinary human experiences. On the eve of his suffering, He also experienced fear.

These are not all saints to whom you can pray - any saint of God will help. Choose according to your desire the one to whom your soul lies. The Church does not impose any restrictions. But it’s still worth starting with an appeal to the Lord and the Mother of God.
Ritual against cancer on a clothesline
For this ritual, you need to cut off the clothesline at the very post to which it is tied. It is wound into a skein and brought into the house. In the evening, one of the relatives or close people performs a ritual.
The patient is given a coil of rope, the free end is taken into the hands of the one who reads the plot. When choosing a rope, you need to tie forty knots on it. During this, they read a conspiracy that helps against breast cancer׃
The magic words are repeated until all 40 knots are tied on the rope. After the last knot is tied, the rope must be cut, taken outside and burned.
Prayer to St. Luke of Crimea for cancer
Oh, all-blessed confessor, our holy saint Luke, great saint of Christ. With tenderness, we bow the knee of our hearts, and falling to the race of your honest and multi-healing relics, like the children of our father, we pray to you with all diligence: hear us sinners and bring our prayer to the merciful and humane God, to whom you now stand in the joy of the saints and with the faces of an angel. We believe that you love us with the same love that you loved all your neighbors while you were on earth. Ask Christ our God to confirm His children in the spirit of right faith and piety: to the shepherds to give holy zeal and care for the salvation of the people entrusted to them: to observe the right of believers, to strengthen the weak and infirm in the faith, to instruct the ignorant, to reprove the contrary. Give us all a gift that is useful to everyone, and everything that is useful for temporary life and eternal salvation. Strengthening our cities, fruitful lands, deliverance from famine and destruction. Comfort for those who mourn, healing for those who are ill, return to the path of truth for those who have lost their way, blessing from a parent, education and teaching for a child in the Passion of the Lord, help and intercession for the orphaned and needy. Grant us all your archpastoral blessing, so that if we have such a prayerful intercession, we will get rid of the wiles of the evil one and avoid all enmity and disorder, heresies and schisms. Guide us on the path leading to the villages of the righteous and pray to the omnipotent God for us, that in eternal life we may be worthy with you to continually glorify the Consubstantial and Indivisible Trinity, the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. To Him belongs all glory, honor and power forever and ever. Amen.
Prayer to Matrona of Moscow for oncology
O blessed Mother Matrono, with your soul standing in heaven before the Throne of God, with your body resting on earth, and exuding various miracles by the grace given from above. Look now with your merciful eye on us, sinners, in sorrows, illnesses and sinful temptations, our waiting days, comfort us, desperate ones, heal our fierce ailments, from God we are allowed by our sins, deliver us from many troubles and circumstances, pray to our Lord Jesus Christ forgive us all our sins, iniquities and falls, in whose image we have sinned from our youth even to this day and hour, and through your prayers having received grace and great mercy, we glorify in the Trinity the One God, the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit, now and ever and ever. Amen.
Do prayers help with cancer?
Even cancer is not a death sentence if a person has faith. It happens that illnesses are sent so that a Christian can take a closer look at his spiritual world. Indeed, there are documented cases where turning to faith alleviated the condition of patients.
Internal positive changes that occur under the influence of religious feelings have a good effect on the general condition. The Holy Fathers recommend resorting to all available sacraments of Orthodoxy as often as possible:
- Confession - cleanses the soul of sins; it is required on a regular basis.
- Unction is a general church service once a year during Lent. It is also used privately in cases of serious illness, usually at home. In this sacrament forgotten sins are forgiven.
- Communion is the main Christian sacrament, in which grace is given and the believer unites with God. Take as often as you like, by agreement with your confessor.
You can find evidence on the Internet that after prayers the tumor stops growing. She seems to freeze. There are patients who, according to doctors’ predictions, should have developed metastases long ago. But God's grace and faith prolong the lives of such people.
Holy springs, which are located on the territory of many Russian monasteries, have a healing effect. Perhaps this is a beneficial effect of the unique chemical composition of water.

The exact opposite effect can be caused by turning to “healers” or “magicians”. They are indeed capable of generating certain forces. But their source is an evil spirit, Satan, who wishes people only one thing - death. Luring with false promises, demons cause rapid tumor growth (its “malignization”).
Conspiracies to help treat breast cancer
Healing magic has enormous power when, without a doubt, they believe in its help. The most powerful conspiracy against breast cancer will not be of any use if the patient has lost heart and thinks that her life’s journey has come to an end. The tradition of “rolling out” the disease appeared several centuries ago. They were used by herbalists, witches, and village healers. All of them had one thing in common - they instilled hope in a sick person and helped him gain special energy and strength that could overcome the disease.
Spell on apples
For the ritual, prepare three apples. One is wormy, the second is ordinary, and the third is so beautiful and filling that you can’t take your eyes off it. One by one, they “roll out” the disease from the sore spot where the tumor has formed.
For the ritual you need to take 3 apples
They start with a bad apple and end up with a beautiful one. For each apple the following words are repeated three times.
After the ritual, the patient must take all three apples, take them away from the house and bury them in the ground. You can’t talk to anyone about the ritual.
Ritual against cancer on a pond
This conspiracy against breast cancer must be carried out by the patient independently. Early in the morning you need to go to any body of water. With the first rays of the Sun they say the following words׃
Then you need to wash your face with water from the pond three times and go home.
How to Pray for Healing
You can ask for the healing of a loved one every day. It is important to understand that it is necessary to lead a godly life. Reconcile with loved ones, conduct a general confession. Perhaps there were serious sins in the past. If you confess them, your conscience will calm down and your emotional state will become more stable.
In this case, you need to ask the priest about observing fasts. In general, seriously ill people do not have to undergo the feat of fasting - they should still be allowed to receive Communion. But it happens that believers themselves feel the need for this, despite their physical weakness. The church representative usually does not object and blesses. Still, the most important thing is for hope to live in the heart and prayer to be performed.
You can pray for healing to one saint or several. If your condition allows, it is good to go on a pilgrimage to a holy place, live in a monastery, and venerate the relics of saints. You need to drink holy water in the morning and eat prosphora. It is customary to do this on an empty stomach, after prayer, on days when there is no communion.
Use all available means that Orthodoxy offers:
About the author About the book
- The Inexhaustible Psalter for Health - served for the sick for different periods (from a month to several years);
- Notes on health at the Liturgy (proskomedia);
- Church prayers to the saints.
It is advisable that the sick person himself be present in the church during the service. It happens that your health does not allow you to get out of bed. Then the believer prays at home at the same time when his loved ones are in church. Petitions to saints are usually read before the images. Their size and cost do not affect the result of prayer, only the faith of the person himself, his desire to change for the better. Every day you need to ask for help from your Guardian Angel.
Which saints should I turn to for help?
To cope with despair, you need to seek support from Heavenly patrons.
To fight cancer they pray:
- to the Almighty;
- Holy Mother of God;
- Archangel Raphael;
- Archangel Michael;
- guardian angel;
- saints, famous for their gift of healing.
Often a tearful prayer before the face of the saints, so that they become petitioners before the Lord for the sick, is fulfilled.
Saint Panteleimon was a skilled healer who healed people with medicinal potions and prayer to Christ. During the persecution of Christians he was executed. Matrona of Moscow became famous for her mercy towards the suffering, although she herself was blind from birth and then immobilized. Through her prayer to the Lord, hopelessly ill people were cured.
Luka Krymsky (before he was tonsured, Valentin Voino-Yasenetsky) was a talented surgeon before entering the path of priesthood. Until his last days (1961), the archbishop combined surgical activities with episcopal ministry. From a young age, he saw the meaning of his life in helping those suffering. Nectarios of Aegina suffered a lot of persecution and injustice in his life, but this did not shake his faith in God.
Archangel Raphael is the patron saint of doctors and helps everyone suffering from physical pain. Archangel Michael is a great helper to those who mourn. The Mother of God, a merciful petitioner before the Son, is addressed with any misfortune. The Lord is merciful to sincerely repentant sinners. Cancer patients and their loved ones, for example, a wife for her husband, can ask for healing.
