What is the strongest prayer for the health of a sick person?

None. / pii / S0002870305006496

When reading certain prayers, we always turn to the clergy. It happens that one prayer does not help, then another should be read or in addition to it, some should be read, perhaps an akathist should be read (some akathists are read several times). It all depends on the patient's condition and your faith. It is better to seek advice at the temple. Most of all, it helps us to raise the patient with the help of holy water obtained as a result of the holy prayer service, where we stand for the entire service. It should be ordered in advance, because it doesn't happen every day.

The most powerful prayer is the one that comes from a person who believes that God loves and hears him personally. Moreover, the conscience of this man tells him that he is not worthy of mercy because of his involuntary sins and weakness. And you cannot tell God what is best for the soul of the sick person: healing or continuation of the disease, or death. Then this audacious plea from spirit to Spirit will certainly be heard. However, God knows better how and what will be better and He does everything out of Love

Any prayer is "strong" and effective if we say it with faith and humility. The power of prayer is not in the words of prayers, but in firm hope and hope in the mercy and love of God, in the healing of illness and bodily strength. And I also want to say that a prerequisite for our prayers to be heard is repentance of sins and correction of our life, confession and life according to the Commandments of God. Because if we sin and do not repent, apart from our words of repentance and other prayers, the Lord “does not hear”, as it is written in the Scriptures: “God does not listen to sinners” (John 9:31)

There are no prayers strong and stronger or less. Each prayer is valuable if spoken from a sincere heart and with faith. Reading prayers to certain saints is good, but the Creator and Creator is God. If you do not ask Him, then prayers will not help the saints. First God, then the archangels, the Mother of God, and only then the host of saints. For example, you pray to Saint Panteleimon, well, but the Lord wants a person to be sick for a while. What do you think this prayer will be good for. And will the saint answer your prayers .if he put his life on the service of God? Many people read the answers that I read above and even put likes. But think?. A two-word prayer can be stronger than a thousand words. -Lord have mercy !!? If you pronounce them with faith, then by faith and God will give you. There are a lot of prayers about painful prayers, there is even some kind of separation. Some saints like John are responsible for the head and all diseases associated with it. There are prayers to St. Boniface from alcoholism, Joachim and Anna and pray for children as unborn so and babies to Seraphim Sarov someone with epilepsy and epilepsy, Miron about paralysis, Kos and Demyan about eye diseases. And so on. Of course, if faith is strong, any prayer can become salutary. In case of long and intractable diseases, they read the canon about the sick (her). You can order it and the church. -monastery, but you can read at home or in a hospital. Any prayer book has it. But again, I repeat a powerful prayer by faith, and not mindless reading of the text.

Any prayer can be strong only when the Creator Himself - the Holy Spirit acts in it.

And such it happens when the praying person is orthodox, humble, simple-minded, attentive, collected, sincere, diligent, unselfish, loving and confident in the result.

The texts prayers are secondary, for the essence of prayer is not so much in words as in the outflow of the energies of the spirit to the Creator, which are closer to feelings and contemplations than to complex speeches.

A simple sentence, filled with grace from a pure, sincere heart, is the most powerful force in the universe, for grace (CHARIS - uncreated Divine energies), according to St. Gregory Palamas, is in some way GOD HIMSELF.

There are several strong prayers to various saints for the recovery of a sick person.

Prayer to St. Matrona of Moscow:

O blessed mother Matrono, your soul is in heaven before the Throne of God, your body is on earth resting, and with the grace given from above, various miracles emanate. Consider now your merciful eye on us, sinful ones, in sorrows, diseases and sinful temptations, your days are dependent, console us, desperate, heal our fierce ailments, from God we are tolerated by our sin, save us from many troubles and circumstances, pray our Lord Jesus Christ, forgive us all our sins, iniquities and fall, we have sinned from our youth even to the present day and hour, and by your prayers we have received grace and great mercy, we will glorify in the Trinity the One God, the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit, now and ever and ever. Amen.

Prayer to the Healer Panteleimon:

Oh, the great servitor of Christ, the most merciful Panteleimone, a passion-bearer and doctor! Have mercy on me, the sinful servant of God (name), hear my groaning and cry, propitiate the Heavenly, Supreme Physician of our souls and bodies, Christ our God, and grant me healing from a cruel oppressive ailment. Accept the unworthy prayer of the most sinful man more than all others. Visit me with a gracious visit. Do not abhor my sinful sores, anoint them with the oil of your mercy and heal me; May it be healthy in soul and body, the rest of my days, with the help of the grace of God, I can spend in repentance and pleasing God, and I will be worthy of the perception of the good end of my life. She, the saint of God! Pray Christ God to grant me through your intercession the health of the body and the salvation of my soul. Amen.
