Where can I order a magpie about health. How to order a prayer service for health in a church

First of all, it is worth understanding the very concept of this word. Before you perform any religious action, you need to understand why it is performed.

Sorokoust for health: what is it?

In Orthodoxy, Magpie is a traditional and daily prayer service (Christian rite) for health, which church employees read as part of the service. Many great elders and spiritual ascetics noted that in Christianity, most of the cycles, services and rituals are associated with forty, as well as with weeks. After the end of earthly life, the Lord appeared to his disciples for 40 days. The Great Savior Christ was in the desert all alone for exactly 40 days. And for 40 days the prophet Moses indulged in fasting. And even the bearing of the fetus lasts exactly 40 weeks, when the birth of a new life proceeds without problems. In the spiritual and physical world, the number 40 has a sacred and almost phantasmagoric meaning.

The sorokoust prayer service is called because it is read for exactly forty days. During this period, the name of the one for whom it was ordered is mentioned in the prayer code. Today, ordering a prayer service for health is feasible both when visiting a church in person and online via the Internet.

According to tradition, prayer is important to order for a sick Christian. Such prayers also help seriously ill people, and they are also a good “prevention” for the believer’s health.

These prayers can help with everyday problems. They can also be ordered as help to a person in his new endeavors. Sorokoust gives the believer spiritual strength. It helps to solve various issues with greater ease. And it is a kind of divine amulet.

Sorokoust as a prayer for health, it is possible to ask to read only for a living and baptized person. In order for the prayer service to be carried out, it is enough to perform the following simple algorithm of actions:

After these steps, you can be sure that the magpie will definitely be read. A prayer service can be ordered for yourself personally. Magpie notes are accepted any day. A note can contain multiple names or just one name. In Great Lent, such prayers are read less frequently. Therefore, it is necessary to give the names of those for whom one should pray at the services. In some temples, instead of notes with names, special notebooks are used. There the church ministers themselves enter the names for the Magpies. Sometimes, when ordering such a prayer service, a kind of receipt is issued that the order has been accepted and the prayer service will be served.

This prayer can be ordered for relatives, and even for your enemies. But if everything is clear with relatives, and wishes for their health will never be superfluous, then many doubt the expediency of ordering for enemies.

But God taught that we must love our neighbors. Therefore, such a magpie for ill-wishers will be both a sign of the strength of your faith, and a good measure of humility, as well as hope in the Lord in the event that enemies demand their admonition and guidance on the true path.

The answer to the question of how to order a magpie for health is contained in the regulations of each individual parish. The rules for ordering a magpie in different churches may vary slightly.

Magpie varieties

In difficult cases, a prayer for health can be asked to be read in three churches or parishes. You only need to submit notes in temples on the same day. And it is better to do it in the morning. Such a magpie is considered an effective tool for those who need help in healing or in getting rid of troubles and misfortunes.

If there are not enough churches in the city where the person lives, then you can use excursions or plan a personal trip to different churches. And also to order this prayer service during the week, and not in one day.

Sometimes prayers for health are ordered for a year or half a year. This is done to help yourself and loved ones, to resolve difficult situations. Prayers for health are asked to be read not only for the physical health of a person, but also when a person is sick in soul. It can be both a mental illness and a strong experience of some kind of grief.

How is help manifested after magpie?

Many believers note that after ordering a prayer service, their situation improves in the most incredible ways. For example, one woman could not get the right medicine for her child. She ordered a prayer service, and soon this medicine was delivered to the nearest pharmacy. Then the woman purchased the drug, and the treatment of the baby was successful.

Or, for example, a sick person did not improve for a long time after treatment. When he was ordered to pray for health, he rapidly began to recover. Magpie also helps when doctors cannot make a correct diagnosis. And then, when everything in the family is bad with finances. Help from Magpie can be both instantaneous and prolonged in time.

When ordering a prayer service, you should not relax and give up. We must continue to solve problems in worldly ways. It's just that after magpie it will be easier to solve them. God's will is for everything, and the ways in which problems will be solved are inscrutable. Help can come from the most unexpected quarters. Here everything depends on the strength of faith, as well as on the degree of spirituality of each believer. After all, the Bible says that all will be rewarded precisely by faith. And many aspects of people's lives depend on faith.

Now you know how to order a magpie for health, how. Shrike must be ordered regularly and in case of urgent need, as well as simply to ask God for well-being and happiness. Prayers for health are indeed read every day for the prescribed period. Ordering such an action has its own cost. Money from Magpies goes to candles, flour for prosphora, and other needs of the church. In some situations, poor people can count on the help of the church without paying any fee for a prayer service.

Without a doubt, Magpie is one of the main prayer commemorations in the Orthodox Church.

What is its essence? Forty liturgies in a row (each service) at the proskomedia, a piece of prosphora is removed with the commemoration of the name of the living or deceased (from here you can order a magpie for health and repose), and at the end of the Liturgy with the prayer “Wash, Lord, the sins of those who were commemorated here by Your honest blood, prayers Thy saints," the priest lowers this particle into the Chalice with the Blood of Christ. This happens forty times during the same number of Divine Liturgies.

Where did the number forty come from? This figure is quite common in Holy Scripture: for forty years the holy prophet Moses led the Jews through the desert; the Savior fasted in the wilderness for forty days before His public service; Christ appeared to the apostles for forty days after the Resurrection. The holy apostles legitimized the custom of commemorating the dead for forty days. Hence the "sorokoust".

Professor of the Moscow Theological Academy Evgeny Evsigneevich Golubinsky puts forward a slightly different version. In his book The History of the Russian Church (vol. 2), he writes that in ancient Russia, in large cities, church parishes were divided into "magpies" - similar to modern deanery districts. In each "forty" there were forty temples. Usually, commemorations were ordered in the entire “forty”, hence the name “forty”.

But be that as it may, it must be said that the magpie is the most important commemoration of the Orthodox Church, both the living and the dead. After all, our greatest shrine is the Body and Blood of Christ, which, by His inexpressible mercy to the human race, the Lord creates at every Liturgy from simple substances (wine, water and prosphora). Therefore, one contact with such a terrible and powerful shrine is saving for the human soul.
And as a result of this, the magpie, perhaps, can be called the main memory for a person - both living and dead. After all, it is not for nothing that the clergyman prays, pouring out the particles taken out of the prosphora, with the remembrance of the name, so that the Lord, for the sake of the Most Pure Body and Blood, would wash, that is, forgive the sins of the people commemorated here. And we, Orthodox Christians, believe that this is how it happens.

Therefore, of course, I would like to advise everyone from the bottom of my heart: order magpies for each other and thereby save the souls of loved ones with God's help. Indeed, in the Cup of the Lord there is a great mystery of Divine mercy, love and forgiveness. And there the human soul unites with Christ.

Sorokoust is ordered not necessarily for forty days. It is possible for a longer period of time: six months, a year. You cannot order for the dead if the person was not baptized, moved to another Christian or non-Christian religious organization, and also for suicides. For health, it is also forbidden to order for the unbaptized (they are not members of the Church), for detractors of the faith (militant atheists) who have transferred to another religious organization and thereby voluntarily excommunicate themselves from the Mother Church.
The question is often asked: “Is it possible to order a magpie for a person who is baptized, but does not lead a completely pious life: he goes to church a little and so on? ..” Answer: “Even necessary!” Maybe it is your magpie that will break into his heart and serve as a blessed discovery for the salvation of his soul.

Also, one should not treat the reading of prayers, including the magpie, as commodity-money relations or with a certain degree of magical perception. I paid a hundred rubles, put thirty-three candles in three churches, ordered seven magpies in seven churches - and that's all. Religious norm fulfilled. No. There is no mechanistic-formal approach in the Church. In faith, everything must be passed through the soul. The Lord requires us to change ourselves.

He says to each of us: “My son! give me your heart, and let your eyes watch my ways…” (Prov. 23:26).

In ancient times in Russia, believers sanctified every step of life with prayer. On holidays and Sundays, the whole family was at the church service. Weddings, the birth of children, funerals - everything was accompanied by a prayer in the temple. Before starting agricultural work, traveling and even digging a well, prayers were ordered in the church. With God's blessing, any work was argued.

Now good traditions are forgotten. Many people do not know why a prayer service is needed, what it is and how to pray correctly before important life events. One should not wait for insurmountable difficulties or serious illness in order to turn to God. How to order a prayer service and in what cases it should be performed, it is better to find out in advance.

The difference between a prayer service and home prayer

A prayer service is a short service that includes the prayers and petitions of a specific person or group of people for a specific undertaking. In the church, the prayer service is otherwise called “treba”, from the word “need”, “necessity”. Prayer services can only be performed for living people baptized in the Orthodox faith. Prayer for the dead is called Panikhida.

Prayer in the church.

Important! You can order a prayer service only on those days when the Church allows them to be performed. Petitions are not served on the days of Great Lent, except for Saturday and Sunday.

Why make treb in the temple, when God hears sincere prayer anywhere?

How to write notes

To be commemorated at a prayer service, it is necessary to submit a note with the names of health to the candle box (kiosk). On a special form or a neat sheet of paper, the heading “Prayer of supplication (or thanksgiving) for health” is written, then it is indicated to whom the treba is ordered: to the Lord, the Most Holy Theotokos, the saint (name). Below in a column, in legible handwriting, the names of living, baptized Christians are listed. The donation note is passed to the kiosk or directly to the table where the treba is sent.

Notes for a prayer service

Additional requests for prayers

Traditionally, churches serve one water-blessed prayer service for everyone, with the inclusion of individual petitions indicated in the notes. For different cases, you can order the following applications:

1. about the health of the sick
2. about going on a trip (trip, business trip)
3. thanks be to God
4. about the beginning of every good work

Prayers performed outside the temple

The priest can be invited home to perform the following requirements:

1. consecration of a house (served in a newly built house or apartment if necessary), office space, enterprise.
2. consecration of a field or garden
3. consecration of vehicles
4. laying the foundation, well (aquifer).

Special prayer services exist at the beginning of the construction of the church, the installation of the cross, the raising of the bells.

Custom prayer service

Annual prayers

• The New Year is a special worship that takes place in the church on the civil New Year, on the New Year according to the old style.
• Thanksgiving prayer service on Christmas Day - served in memory of the victory in the Patriotic War of 1812
• Great consecration of water - the feast of the Epiphany. The main of the water blessing prayers.
• Thanksgiving on the first Sunday of Great Lent (the Triumph of Orthodoxy) - in honor of the restoration of the veneration of icons in the 9th century. Christians owe this event many miraculous icons and the opportunity to pray in front of the images of the house.
• The consecration of honey (Honey Savior) is a prayer service that takes place on August 14, in memory of the "pronouncement of the Trees of the Cross of the Lord." During epidemics raging in the summer in the 7th-8th centuries in Byzantium, it was customary to go around cities with a shrine - particles of the Cross of the Lord, asking the Lord for deliverance from the disease. This event has nothing to do with honey, but since honey harvesting began in Russia by mid-August, the firstfruits of the harvest were brought for blessing and donation to the church. At the prayer service for water, which departs on this day, a prayer is read for the consecration of honey.
• Consecration of fruits

People come to the temple, because the Lord calls them, but then often for some reason there is a dead end ... What to do? Probably, something needs to be ordered... But how to pray? And what to say? Candle to buy and put? Or something else? And anxiety appears in some entering the temple, a heavy head without emotions in others, and hysterical fussiness in still others ... The feelings of many people are overwhelmed, but something gives them extraordinary calmness ...

Someone doesn’t go into the temple at all, thinking, they say, what are they doing there at all? They bow, they pray - of course, they atone for sins. It’s even somehow strange all this, let them pray, for me personally it’s so good! But he himself cannot solve elementary questions, because without God, but with a cigarette in his teeth, a drugged mind and clouded eyes, a person is not able to create, because in this way he loses the likeness of the Lord and acquires demonic features.

Understanding - that's what a person lacked all his life, oh, "if youth knew, if old age could" ... How much these words actually contain!

And it is the understanding of simple fundamental things - that's what I want to convey to the reader of this project.

The most important thing is to understand that in the temple, of course, you can pray, but not read a prayer or somehow perform it formally, it is important to turn to God as a father, to the Mother of God, as a mother, to the Saints, as to good reliable friends of the Lord. This is what is most important in prayer when it comes from a pure heart.

And in the temple they do not atone for sins, in the temple they ask God to forgive, give, thank him, and he forgives at the sacrament of Confession. Therefore, the concept of "atone for sins" is generally incorrect. Relationship with God is based on mutual trust, it should be like a relationship with a father. And the consumer opinion about the temple is fundamentally erroneous: I will go there to pray for something and leave with a sense of accomplishment.

We went to the Temple what's next

Of course, when there is no service, it is hard to pray on your own, there is no experience, there are a lot of icons around, much is incomprehensible and unclear. But it's okay, be patient a little, you'll get used to it soon.

We have free tours of the Temple

It would be nice if you contact us, in our temple you can arrange a free tour with the priest about the temple, where you can learn a lot of interesting things and which will be an excellent impetus for independent spiritual growth, because you will certainly get answers to your questions.

Take a closer look at the schedule of services of the temple you like, come to the temple 30 minutes before the start of the service. This is a very good and stable start, but it is important to come before the service, but it is better to make a rule for yourself - to go to church every Sunday. Come in, take a look. You can buy candles in a shop and put them in front of the icons of the Savior, Mother of God, Saints, All Saints.

At the same time, on the icon, if the image is not familiar to you, the name of the saint will be written in Church Slavonic, and you can pray in your own words or like this: “Father (Name of the saint), pray to God for us or for me.” Mother of God: "Most Holy Theotokos, save us, help us." Savior: "Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me." Before the image of all Saints: "All Saints, pray to God for us."

Then the service will begin. This is a great time for prayer. Something will not be clear, but your job is to try to hear. Of course, a lot will depend on the priest (loudness, diction), but you will hear many different petitions, listen to them, and pray.

So, how and what can be ordered in the temple:

You can read the description of various requirements in detail in the corresponding section of our website, but we will note something here.

The strongest and most significant custom prayer is “a special mass with taking out particles”, which means that at a certain point in the service, when the priest commemorates the living and the dead, particles for each name will be taken out of the prosphora, with the addition of a special petition. At the special litany (immediately after the reading of the Gospel), the names will again be commemorated at the liturgy, already for all to hear, then at the end of the liturgy, after the communion of people, the removed particles are poured into the Cup with the Body and Blood of Christ with the words: “Wash away, Lord, the sins of those who are remembered by Your Honor By the blood and prayers of your saints." It can be applied both about health and about repose. If you order a mass with the removal of particles once, the names indicated in the note will be commemorated at one service.

"Lunch"

It differs from the special mass in that the special prayer is not read at the commemoration and the name is not proclaimed aloud at the litany.

"Sorokoust"

- this is the same mass, only when ordering a magpie, the names indicated in the note will be remembered for 40 days.

Note - "Proskomedia"

It is called so because the commemoration takes place at the very first part of the liturgy called "proskomedia" and the names are commemorated on it.

But there are services that are served only for the living or only for the dead. For example: “prayer services” are served only for the living.

Prayers (prayer singing)

there are different, but the most demanded of them - thanksgiving, about travelers, about the sick, for every good petition, the blessing of water, the reading of the canon, the akathist can be attached to the prayers.

"Requiem litiya", "requiem" - is served only for the dead.

Here we can only add that the lithium is a short service for the dead, and the memorial service is served with the reading of the canon, i.e. is a longer funeral service.

During Great Lent, the Liturgy of the Presanctified Gifts is served on weekdays; it differs from the usual Liturgy. Commemorations at such services are called "Lenten Note".

Thus, in fact, there is nothing difficult in understanding the above, but it is important to understand that, having ordered a prayer in the temple, you should not omit prayer at home, because prayer for relatives, friends, loved ones is unusually pleasing to God.

It often happens in life that a person cannot cope with an unfavorable situation, suffers from problems that have piled up, and simply drowns in the routine of everyday worries. Of course, most adversities and minor troubles go away on their own, but there are also such ups and downs that a person cannot find a way out of the current situation. What to do in such a situation? Many find comfort in coming to church when they commune with God through prayer.

One of the most effective and efficient prayers this is Sorokoust for health. But nevertheless, a person who wants to order a magpie for health is faced with many questions: is it possible to submit a request for prayer to oneself, is it worth ordering a prayer service in three churches or do one, is it possible to submit notes asking for the health of one’s enemies, and many other.

What is Sorokoust about health

First, let's figure out what Sorokoust is. Sorokoust is such a special church prayer that acts as an appeal to God about the health of a person or asking for the repose of the soul of the deceased. You need to know that Sorokoust for health can only be ordered for a baptized person.

How is worship performed?

Sorokoust for health is performed by a clergyman during forty divine services. Each time during the service of the liturgy, the clergyman takes out a particle from the prosphora for each person, the requirement for whom was transferred to Sorokoust for health. Further, a special prayer is read with a request to wash away the sins of each person whom was mentioned and all the removed particles fall into the Chalice with the Blood of Christ.

Then, when the service ends, the chalice with particles is taken out and the parishioners partake of the Body and Blood of Christ. In the event that you applied to a church where the liturgy is not held every day, the reading of the magpie can last several months.

How to apply for a magpie for health

Order Sorokoust o health you can order a prayer with any frequency and an unlimited number of times, you can also order a prayer not only for a period of forty days, but also more, for example, for half a year or a year, there is even an eternal commemoration To correctly order Sorokoust, you need to go to any church whose doors are open to visitors and contact the church shop and place an order - write on a piece of paper who you are asking for - the full name of the person given to him at baptism, for whom prayers and his needs will be read (“sick”, “suffering”) or help in a difficult life situation . Such a note should be written in legible handwriting, next to the names write clarifications:

1. about children under seven years old: "baby"
2. about children after seven years: "lad"
3. .about a soldier: "warrior"
4. about the patient: "sick" or "suffering"

When going to church, remember that your clothes should be modest and not defiant, while women also need to cover their heads with a scarf.

For what reasons do they order a magpie about health

Sorokoust about health is ordered with different goals and wishes:

Although I consider myself a believer, I didn’t go to church much, but then everything somehow piled up - problems with work, discord with my husband after twenty years of living together - so a friend advised me to go to church and order a magpie about my health, well, I also ordered about the health of my husband. Somehow I didn’t even hope that it would help, over time I forgot about it, when suddenly everything gradually began to improve in life - I reconciled with my husband, offered another position with a higher salary, and most importantly, my husband and I will have a child soon, But I have been diagnosed with infertility of the first degree for ten years. Thank you Lord for everything!

Sorokoust is a request to the Almighty for help in solving their problems, both spiritual and physical properties.

Sorokoust about the health of enemies

The trouble came from where they did not expect - the son, clever, excellent student, home boy, began to use drugs. How many tears she cried out, words cannot simply describe, and asked, and begged, and stood on her knees and turned to the best doctors - all to no avail.

Then the demon confused me - out of desperation, I already started running around fortune-tellers and fortune tellers, but everything only got worse, and my mother’s heart hurts and there is no gap ahead, but thank God, one elderly woman advised me to order a magpie about the health of my son. And, you know, even if not immediately, very gradually, everything began to improve - he, of his own free will, went to a good clinic, was treated, now we have a stable remission. Every day I pray for the health of the woman who advised me to order a prayer service, and I thank God for hearing my prayers.

Valentine

Not everyone is aware that you can pray not only for relatives and friends, but also for yourself. but also about enemies. However, it should be remembered that you can submit notes only when you have completely forgiven the person and only with good intentions. There is a widespread misconception that such a church prayer, ordered to the enemy, will return to him with a boomerang all the evil that he committed against the person who ordered the prayer. This is fundamentally wrong and wrong, you should not order a magpie for health with such thoughts, since church prayer in this case is considered as a kind of instrument of revenge.

The impact of committing magpie on a person's life

Changes in the life of the person on whom the prayer is read occur after the first two or three services. Many Orthodox scriptures and books say that when someone orders a prayer service for themselves and others, they practically declare an open war on evil spirits. Therefore, at first you should prepare for minor troubles, quarrels with others and misunderstandings with loved ones. But, as a rule, all this passes when seven full days of worship expire.

Sorokoust about health in 3 churches

There is an opinion that in order to strengthen the strength and effectiveness of Sorokoust about health, it must be ordered in 3 churches. Sorokoust about health in 3 churches usually ordered for a seriously ill person or for those who want to get rid of magical effects: remove an eye or damage. Such magpies should be ordered before sunset. A prayer read in three temples has a more pronounced effect, since the positive influence of Magpie on a person will be stronger, because more people will pray for him. However, it should be remembered that Christianity is primarily an internal meaning rather than an external form. Church prayer by no means cancels the need to attend church, personal repentance and striving for God.

Applying for your health

You can submit a note asking for prayer about yourself. Sorokoust about health can be read only for a baptized person - this is the main condition for prayer. If you find yourself in a difficult life situation, feel that you are confused and don’t know what to do next, go to church and file a note about magpie for health about yourself. But remember that worship is by no means an esoteric rite. If you want prayers to really help: constantly attend church, confess and take communion. The grace of God descends upon us exclusively through love for God.

Amount of donation for magpie about health

Amount of donation for holding a prayer service depends on the needs and requirements of a particular temple. It is impossible to say exactly how much it will cost you to order a prayer service. In some churches, the price may be a little more, in some less, but, in any case, there is no universal, fixed price, and the amount of this donation is at your discretion. In the vast majority of cases, the minimum donation costs approximately 250-300 rubles.

Do you suffer from illness, do you suffer difficulties in matters of the heart, do you experience material difficulties, do you feel that a prayer for health in these and many other cases will help you overcome your troubles.

I put a magpie for my health, as the time was approaching childbirth, and the pregnancy was difficult, and my son was sitting in his stomach with his legs forward. The doctors predicted a caesarean section, but I really wanted to give birth myself. And now, at the appointed hour, it was my time to give birth and everything went just like clockwork, as the doctors later told me: no one expected such an easy birth with my preeclampsia of pregnant women and a narrow pelvis. I thank God every day for hearing my prayers.

Sorokoust for health is a special kind of prayer and that is why it has such a powerful positive impact on human life and health. There are a lot of good reviews about magpie among the people..

A huge number of people, both young and old, with completely different problems and hardships, with different social and financial status, with completely different views on life - someone was lucky in work, someone figured out himself, someone found personal happiness. But the most important thing is the support of the Almighty, the indulgence of the Grace of God, the Lord's help and God's love.
