The most powerful prayer to the life-giving cross. When to read the prayer to the honorable cross of the Lord

Psalm to David, 34.

Judge, Lord, those who offend me, overcome those who fight me. Take the weapon and the shield, and rise to my aid. Take away your sword and imprison those who persecute me. The words of my soul: I am your salvation. Let those who seek my soul be ashamed and put to shame, let those who think evil of me turn back and be ashamed. Let them be like dust before the wind, and the Angel of the Lord insulting them. Let their way be dark and creeping, and the Angel of the Lord chasing them: as if I hid the destruction of my net in vain, I reproached my soul in vain. Let a net come to him, unknown to the south, and a catch, unknown to the south, embrace him, and let him fall into the net. My soul will rejoice in the Lord, it will rejoice in His salvation. All my bones cry: Lord, Lord, who is like You? Deliver the poor from the hand of those who strong him, and the poor and the wretched from those who plunder him. Having stood up as a witness to unrighteousness, even though I did not know, I questioned me. I have rewarded the evil one with a good cart, and the childlessness of my soul. But when I felt the cold, I put on sackcloth and humbled my soul with fasting, and my prayer returned to my bosom. As if we pleased our neighbor, as if we were our brother, as if weeping and lamenting, so we humbled ourselves. And she rejoiced at me and gathered herself together: she gathered at me for her wounds, and did not know, she was divided, and was not touched. Tempt me, imitate me with imitation, grind your teeth on me. Lord, when will you see? Protect my soul from their wickedness, from my only begotten lion. Let us confess to You in the church many, among the troubled people I will praise You. May those who are at enmity unrighteously, those who hate me and those who despise my eyes, not rejoice over me. For I have spoken peaceably and thought of flattery against anger. She widened her mouth at me, saying, “Good, good, what our eyes have seen.” You have seen it, Lord, but do not remain silent. Lord, don't leave me. Arise, O Lord, and bring my judgment, O my God and my Lord, upon my line. Judge me, O Lord, according to Thy righteousness, O Lord my God, and let them not rejoice over me. Let them not say in their hearts: better, better than our soul; let them not say less: his devouring. Let those who rejoice in my evil be ashamed and put to shame, and let those who speak against me be clothed with shame and shame. Let those who want my righteousness rejoice and be glad, and let them say: May the Lord be magnified who want peace for His servant. And my tongue will learn Your righteousness, Your praise all day long.

PSALM 90

Living in the help of the Most High, he will settle in the shelter of the Heavenly God. Says the Lord: Thou art my Protector and my Refuge, my God, and I trust in Him. Yako Toy will deliver you from the snare of the trap, and from rebellious words. His cloak will overshadow you, and you will trust under His wing. His truth will surround you with a weapon, you will not be afraid from the fear of the night, from the arrow that flies in the days, from the thing that passes in darkness, from the cloak and demon of the midday. Thousands will fall from your country, and darkness will fall at your right hand, but it will not come close to you. Look before your eyes, and you will see the reward of sinners. For You, O Lord, are my hope, You have made the Most High your refuge. Evil will not come to you, and wound will not come close to your body. As His Angel commanded you, keep you in all your ways. They will lift you up in their arms, but not when you dash your foot against a stone. Tread on the asp and the basilisk, and cross the lion and the serpent. For I have trusted in Me, and I will deliver; I will cover and because I have known My name. He will call to Me, and I will hear him; I am with him in sorrow, I will destroy him and glorify him; I will fill him with long days, and show him My salvation.

PRAYER TO THE HONORABLE CROSS

May God rise again, and may His enemies be scattered, and may those who hate Him flee from His presence. As smoke disappears, let them disappear, as wax melts from the face of fire, so demons perish from the face of those who love God and signify themselves with the sign of the cross, and in joy say: Rejoice, Most Honorable and Life-Giving Cross of the Lord, drive away the demons by the power of our drunken Lord Jesus Christ on you, who descended into hell and trampled upon the power of the devil, and who gave us His Honest Cross to drive away every adversary. Oh, most honorable and life-giving Cross of the Lord! Help me with the Holy Virgin Mary and with all the saints forever and ever. Amen.

Prayer to the Holy and Life-Giving Cross of the Lord

Before the wondrous miraculous power, the Four-pointed and Tripartite Cross of Christ, spread out in the dust at your foot, I bow to you, the Honest Tree, which drives away all demonic shooting from me and frees me from all troubles, sorrows and misfortunes. You are the Tree of Life. You are the purification of the air, the illumination of the holy temple, the fencing of my home, the guarding of my bed, the enlightenment of my mind, heart and all my feelings. Your holy sign has protected me from the day of my birth, enlightened me from the day of my baptism; it is with me and on me all the days of my life: both on dry land and on the waters. It will accompany me to the grave, and will overshadow my ashes. It, the holy sign of the miraculous Cross of the Lord, will announce to the whole universe about the hour of the general resurrection of the dead and the last Terrible and Righteous Judgment of God. About the All-Honorable Cross! With your overshadowing, enlighten, teach and bless me, unworthy, always undoubtedly believing in Your invincible Power, protect me from every adversary and heal all my mental and physical ailments. Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, by the power of Your Honest and Life-giving Cross, have mercy and save me, a sinner, from now and forever. Amen.

God is our Refuge and Strength, our Helper in the sorrows that have come upon us greatly. For this reason let us not be afraid, for the earth is always troubled and the mountains are given into the hearts of the sea. They made noise and trembled their waters, they trembled the mountains with His strength. The river's aspirations rejoice the city of God: the Most High has sanctified His village. God is in his midst, and does not move: God will help him in the morning. The pagans are in turmoil, and you will stray from the kingdom: let your voice from the Most High be heard, and the earth will move. The Lord of hosts is with us, our Advocate is God Jacob. Come and see the works of God, even He placed miracles on the earth: taking away the battle to the end of the earth, the bow will crush and break the weapons, and the shields will burn with fire. Be abolished and understand that I am God: I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted to the earth. The Lord of hosts is with us, our Advocate is God Jacob.

The prayer to the Life-giving Cross of the Lord is incredibly powerful and provides the Lord with powerful protection even in the most hopeless cases. For many centuries, Orthodox people all over the world have resorted to it to protect themselves and their loved ones from all kinds of misfortunes, and most importantly, to communicate with God, to see His light, purity and righteousness, in order to receive spiritual harmony and eternal grace.

Prayer to the Life-Giving Cross (May God rise again...)
This prayer also has a second name - “May God rise again...”. Her story is complex, scary and tragic, but it contains the true calling and power of God’s Word that has passed through the centuries to proclaim the righteous Orthodox faith that saves everyone who comprehends its gifts.

The Life-Giving Cross, which is spoken of in the prayer, is the wooden pillar on which Jesus Christ was crucified. Christian people have been offering prayers to him for many centuries in order to protect themselves from various negative influences:

• *diseases;
• *evil;
• *evil eye and damage;
• *dangers;
• * troubles and sorrows.

There are many well-known facts that reveal the miraculous power of the Cross. Back in 326, Tsar Constantine, who faithfully fought for the revival of Christianity, wished to erect temples on the land where Jesus was born, lived and died.

He also wanted to find the structure on which the Great One was crucified. His mother, Queen Elena, helped him in this noble cause. After an overwhelming search, she met with the weak Jew Judas, who told about the place where the Cross was located.

So in a deep cave on which a pagan temple stood, three crosses were discovered. But no one knew which of them caused the terrible torment of the Son of God. And suddenly the Savior himself gave the answer to this question, pointing to the healing effect of the structure. In order to find out the real Cross, the following was done:

• it was brought to a seriously ill woman - and the disease instantly left her forever;
• placed on the deceased - and after touching him, the deceased came to life.

After this, Queen Helena brought one part of the Cross to her son, and left the other in Jerusalem. Since then, by uttering sincere, sincere words in prayer: “May God rise again, and be wasted against Him...”, a person receives powerful heavenly protection from any misfortunes. After all, the great divine power of Jesus remained on the Cross forever, that He accepted suffering and death on it for the entire human race.

The Life-Giving Cross has become the main symbol of Christianity, for with prayer on the lips its power increases, because through it the Almighty grants His protection to everyone, and it is unquestioning.

Prayer to the Life-Giving Cross from corruption

The power of a prayer directly depends on the person who says it. After all, it must be read sincerely and with a pure soul. That is why they often resort to it in order to expel damage from a person, and it, as is known, is the result of the envy and soullessness of those people in whose souls evil has settled and, not knowing any other way out, causes pain and suffering to others.

In such cases, when coming to the temple, you need to light a candle to the icon of Jesus Christ, read the prayer and Psalm 90 three times. Such a prayer cleanses and fills with spiritual harmony, and the Cross becomes a talisman against all evil throughout the rest of your life. After all, if love for God lives in a person’s heart, then faith will forever settle in his soul.

The prayer to the Life-giving Cross of the Lord is not just eternal recognition to the Lord for his deeds, it sets out the whole essence of the world and the true purpose of man. It heals the physical and pacifies the spiritual. Her strength is in herself! For the Word of God, embedded in the soul, revives faith, which is the greatest grace given to humanity.

Prayer to the Honest Cross:

May God rise again, and may His enemies be scattered, and may those who hate Him flee from His presence. As smoke disappears, let them disappear; just as wax melts in the face of fire, so let demons perish from the face of those who love God and signify themselves with the sign of the cross, and who say in joy: Rejoice, Most Honorable and Life-Giving Cross of the Lord, drive away the demons by force on you of our Lord Jesus Christ, who descended into hell and straightened the power the devil, and who gave us His Honest Cross to drive away every adversary. O Most Honest and Life-Giving Cross of the Lord! Help me with the Holy Virgin Mary and with all the saints forever. Amen.

When reading the Prayer to the Honest and Life-Giving Cross, they mark themselves with a cross.

“May God rise again, and His enemies will be scattered, and those who hate Him will flee from His presence.

Protect me, Lord, by the power of Your Honest and Life-giving Cross, and save me from all evil.
Weaken, forsake, forgive, O God, our sins, voluntary and involuntary, even in word and in deed, even in knowledge and in ignorance, even in days and nights, even in mind and in thought: forgive us everything, for it is Good and Lover of Humanity.
Forgive those who hate and offend us, Lord Lover of Humanity. Do good to those who do good. Grant to our brothers and relatives the same petitions for salvation and eternal life. Visit those who are out of power and grant healing. Manage the sea as well. For travelers, travel. Grant forgiveness of sins to those who serve and forgive us. Have mercy on those who have commanded us unworthy to pray for them according to Your great mercy. Remember, Lord, our father and brethren who have fallen before us, and give them rest, where the light of Thy face shines. Remember, Lord, our captive brethren and deliver me from every situation. Remember, Lord, those who bear fruit and do good in Your holy churches, and give them petitions for salvation and eternal life. Remember, Lord, us, humble and sinful and unworthy Thy servants, and enlighten our minds with the light of Thy mind, and guide us on the path of Thy commandments, through the prayers of our Most Pure Lady Theotokos and Ever-Virgin Mary and all Thy saints: for blessed art thou unto the ages centuries. Amen".

Prayer to the Honest and Life-Giving Cross briefly:
“Protect me, Lord, by the power of Your Honest and Life-giving Cross, and save me from all “evil.”

The Cross of Christ is called Honest because it is honored as a great shrine, an instrument of our salvation (they pray before it, they honor it with bows, the use of the sign of the cross in prayers and sacred rites, etc.)

The Cross of Christ is called life-giving because it gives life to those who through baptism have partaken of the fruits of the Sacrifice of the Cross, and because by the death of the cross Christ defeated bodily death, laying the foundation for the general resurrection: Christ rose from the dead, the firstborn of the dead(1 Cor. 15:20).

In difficult life circumstances, prayer to the Life-giving Cross of the Lord helps people. Prayer to the Cross of Christ helped me in the most difficult and sad matter. The husband suffered from alcoholism: a bad habit at some point quietly developed into a disease. A lot changed in our family then: aggression began on his part, his strange behavior frightened me. In good moments, when he was sober, he himself complained that the situation was getting out of control.

In the most difficult moments, I began to read the prayer “May God rise again,” and after a while a miracle happened: my husband calmed down, fell asleep, his aggression went away on its own. After that, he most often asked for forgiveness and repented. The most important thing is that while reading the prayer, I immediately had a feeling of security and protection from the Higher Powers. After some time, my husband agreed to undergo treatment, and now everything is fine with us!

There are a large number of stories when turning to the honorable cross saved people in difficult situations - in case of serious illness, in danger, when attacked by aggressive people or in other troubles.

Once upon a time, my grandmother taught me this prayer: she said that the text of the prayer “May God rise again” should be said when it becomes scary. One day I got lost in the forest and couldn’t find my way home. Out of fear, I even forgot the text of the prayer, but gradually I remembered. I read the prayer several times and calmed down, the confidence came that now I would go out onto the road and everything would work out. And indeed, after some time a path was found and led me to a neighboring village.

My friends told me that prayer helped them in a more difficult case - when their son was in danger due to his inexperience getting involved with a criminal group. Through the prayer of his parents, their son was released and was never persecuted again.

Prayer helps with panic attacks and anxiety

In the modern world, such an unpleasant problem as panic attacks is common. It is difficult to say what is causing them, perhaps damage or the evil eye. But the main thing is that you can get rid of this illness with the help of prayer to the Holy Cross.

When a panic attack begins and you become scared for unknown reasons, reading a prayer is the best support. It helps you calm down, trust in the Higher Powers, believe in the best, and let go of negativity.

It also helps a lot if you are haunted by inexplicable anxiety: for example, you are afraid for your children, husband, relatives, although there is no reason for anxiety. In this case, it is best not to worry unnecessarily. But in order to relieve anxiety, read the prayer “May God rise again,” this will help you cleanse yourself of black thoughts.

Support of the Higher Powers during damage and the evil eye

Most often it is recommended to read a prayer to the Life-Giving Cross against damage and curses. If strange things happen in the house, if you are haunted by a series of troubles that are difficult to explain logically, then read this prayer and rely on God’s help.

Perhaps you have unfriendly neighbors, and you assume that they could well spoil you. Light a candle and read the prayer until you feel peace and tranquility. If you have serious concerns that you have been jinxed, then it is better to read the text regularly, at the slightest deterioration in your condition or the appearance of melancholy.

By the way, this method can also be effective for depression. Of course, do not forget to turn to the saints and the Lord God himself for help, but in case you feel unwell, you should always have the text of this prayer at hand.

A Brief History of Prayer

In Orthodoxy there are many prayers addressed to saints, the Lord God or the Mother of God. For those just beginning to become interested in the world of Orthodoxy, it may be surprising that such a powerful prayer is dedicated to the cross. But the cross in Christianity is a symbol of life and deliverance from spiritual death, which is why the text has such great power.

It is believed that the emperor, three centuries after the life of the Savior, decided to find the very cross on which Christ was crucified. He could not find it for a long time, until he finally discovered three identical crosses in the cave, which had once served as an instrument of execution. To determine whether there was a cross among them, which has special power, they were brought one by one to the terminally ill woman. And at some point she completely recovered. The legend also says that at that moment the dead man was being carried past for burial - and he also rose again, such was the power of the cross of the Lord. This is how one of the main relics of Christianity was found - the cross of Christ - and a prayer addressed to the cross of the Lord appeared.

It is better for everyone to know the prayer to the Life-Giving Cross in Russian. Who knows what situations we might find ourselves in? If the text is difficult to learn, you can carry a piece of paper with the printed text of the prayer with you or buy it at a church store.

It is best if you have a crucifix at home: then the text should be read while looking at the crucifix (or holding your pectoral cross with your hand). It is also important not to forget to illuminate yourself with the sign of the cross. In case of a serious illness, it is better to read the prayer at night, before going to bed, in order to calm the mind and tune in to the best, to help from above. You should not read the text with the TV on; nothing should distract you from the main thing - a conversation with God.
