When deciding on an operation, anyone will worry about the result and worry about the professionalism of the surgeon. It is possible to have a beneficial effect on the doctor, a positive outcome and a successful process of any intervention can be a suitable prayer. About what prayers should be read, to whom, how and when, more in this article.
The power of prayer before surgery
Prayer before surgery is not just a pledge of confidence in a successful outcome.
In addition to ensuring a safe outcome, it helps in the following:
- Calms and gives hope.
- Provides confidence and skill of the surgeon.
- Allows you to avoid unexpected situations and unnecessary reactions.
- Does not allow a large load on the body.
- Eliminates unwanted effects.
Similar prayers are read, usually by the whole family and relatives. This is done in order to strengthen the petition and increase the chances of its execution.
The patient himself must go through three stages for a successful outcome:
- Prayer the day before surgery.
- Petition before the process itself.
- Gratitude after.
The main prayer is read before surgery. And it must be read during the week.
Who to pray before and after surgery, how to do it correctly?
When deciding who and what prayer should be lifted up, there is no need to worry about the correctness of the choice. Remember that you are asking the Holy One to convey your prayer to the Lord and pray with you.
Therefore, you can appeal to several forces at once in turn:
- to the Mother of God;
- Nicholas the Wonderworker;
- Matrona of Moscow;
- Luka Crimean.
Prayer before the operation itself should not be based on fear, but on faith in the Lord and hope for the best. Fearful prayers will not have the desired effect. You should also pray for the health of the doctor who will operate on you.
The selected prayer is repeated daily during the week. If possible, it is preferable to visit the church several times, confess to the priest and take communion. You should take a small cross or a copy of the icon into the operating room and keep it with you even at the end of the procedure.
God for a successful outcome
To beg the Lord about the successful outcome of the operation, you should contact him with two prayers:
- the first is read in the days before the surgery;
- the second is directly at the beginning of the process.
The most popular prayer that can be read before the procedure is “Our Father”. This prayer is used under any circumstances, it calms and pacifies, and also helps to concentrate God's power and will on what is happening. She repeated three times a day: in the morning, after lunch, in the evening.
Once a day you can say another prayer:
"Our Lord Almighty, your holy name, forever your kingdom! Submissive (submissive) to the will of your servant of God (God's servant) (your name) prays for blessing and miracle in order to save from the fate of the unkind and give a good outcome in the upcoming event. Do not leave direct me the hand of the doctor (name of the surgeon). Make your will with his acts. Amen. "
After each reading, it is necessary to cross three times and bow three times. Both prayers can be read daily, but it is undesirable; the Lord will hear the words and listen to them anyway. Immediately before the operation, after entering anesthesia, should be repeated:"Bless and save!".
Luka Krymsky's prayer before the operation is several times stronger if it is repeated by close relatives. It is not necessary to memorize the text, the main thing is to put in it the hope of healing and a successful outcome. Download the full version of the prayer at this link.
The Blessed Virgin Mary on a successful operation
The Most Holy Theotokos separately on the icon reads the prayer before the operation, so that it goes well. You should also light an odd number of candles, kneel down and say:
"Holy Mother of God, Protector of the family and intercessor! Do not offend the Slave of God (the Slave of God) (your name or the patient's name) but contribute to healing! Take away the pain, heal the wounds, like a mother shrouded in benefits, love and your protection. Amen".
Cross yourself, touch the bottom of the icon with your lips, repeat the act three times. If the prayer is read by a relative, then it is recommended to appeal to the Mother of God with the prayer "Virgin Mary, rejoice ...". It is possible to pronounce the sacred text before the operation and in its process in order to focus the attention of the heavenly forces on what is happening.
Nicholas the Wonderworker
Do not forget about the great Saints, who in their lifetime worked wonders, healed people and bestowed deliverance from misfortune and torment. One of the most popular Saints is Nicholas the Wonderworker. You can address him with a prayer before the operation every night, kneeling by the bed and repeating:
"About all-holy pleaser Nicholas, intercessor of the bereaved, help the Slave of God (Slave of God) (name) in real life, pray the Lord God, give relief and tranquility, do the work of good and save from an unkind outcome. this prayer for the glory of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, and I trust in Thee, now and ever, and unto the ages of ages. Amen".
Appeal to the Wonderworker, including with a prayer before the operation of a loved one:
"Wonderworker Nicholas, the patron of the suffering and the healer of all sorts of diseases, we pray for a close and dear person. Save the evil and save the pain of God's Slave (God's Slave) (name), intercede for him (her) before God and give his blessing. Will. yours so be it! Amen".
Matrone Moskovskaya
It is better to appeal with a request to Matron immediately on the day of the operation itself in the morning, after reading other prayers. It is necessary to cross and read the words:
"Blessed Matrona, through the sorrows of gratuitously conducting, hear my call and patronage grant! O prayers for your doctor (name of surgeon) I pray, for a strong hand and sound one already! I ask the Lord for your beneficence, but please God for my help and healing. Amen. Amen. Amen. "
This prayer is considered to be accompanying to those that were read all week. It helps to focus the divine energy and direct it to the right path.
Recovery after surgery with prayer
After the operation and the reading of many different prayers, an equally important matter remains - reading a prayer of thanks. It is imperative to bring gratitude to heaven for help, in order to consolidate the resulting effect, to avoid possible relapses and recover faster. Thanksgiving is read only by the patient himself in solitude and by candlelight:
"Thank you, Lord God, Almighty Father! Thank you for your help (to cross), for your goodness (repeat the sign of the cross), for your favor (to repeat the action). Thank you for your finger, to the act of pointing (cross yourself) for the wisdom of the physician, the healing is wonderful and the future life is happy and cloudless (to cross over again). I will glorify Thy and Your Saints now and then. Amen. "
You can also give thanks in your own words after the evening prayer rule. At the same time, it is important not to overdo it, but to thank briefly and to the point. Do not forget to regularly (once every three days) wash your face with holy water and attend church on Sundays for at least two months after the operation.
