Prayers for family happiness
When family happiness hangs by a thread, some strong prayers, said in a special way, can restore harmony and understanding.

Therefore, prayers for the preservation and well-being of the family will be better received by a woman who lives with her heart.

You will need an icon, which is probably in everyone’s home Orthodox man. Read the sacred text every night, and even more if you feel the need.

What prayer will help to reason with your husband?
Prayer for the family is a means that is resorted to in extreme cases, although one should turn to the Lord more often and not for vain trifles. It reads like a conspiracy and each of its implementation returns happiness and love to your heart drop by drop. Family quarrels very often they have a simple reason - the husband began to look at other women. It doesn’t matter why this happened: due to the fact that the wife lost her former attractiveness after the birth of children, she was simply tired of the relationship, fatigue had accumulated, or they were “nagging” at home, her faith had weakened... None of these reasons should be the basis of family discord and divorce.
In addition, another may use a black conspiracy, a love spell on your spouse, to help. The loved one will return to the family, even though husbands now like to torment the missus and threaten to leave the family. Understanding of the mistake comes, but not soon, and the belief that you can return is often not justified. At first, the man is glad that he lives with a young woman, but then he realizes how seriously he made a mistake, including divorce.
Preserving the family often becomes the burden of the wife herself. In a situation where talking and tears no longer help, many begin to look for a conspiracy or prayer so that the husband does not leave for another. In any case, you will need an icon of the Savior to justify yourself in His eyes. Buy it from the church and start reading it that day. Keep the letter, that is, the text rewritten in your own hand, near the icon. Prayer against cheating husband:
After this cleansing prayer, strong faith should return to you. You can proceed to the main text:
“Lord, Heavenly King, Comforter, help me in a good cause, in the salvation of my family. Hear me, sinful and unworthy, praying to You at this hour. With tears in my eyes, I pray to You: bring some understanding to the servant of God (name), my husband. Gather the lost and guide them to the right path. Teach him to be a good and worthy husband to his wife.
Arouse in the heart of God’s servant (name) love for me, his wife, and show all the corruption of his deeds. Melt his coldness, resurrect his love. Don't let the family be destroyed, give us family good.
Lord, protect my husband from the devil’s temptation and sinful life. Especially autumn and protect the servant of God (name) from all misfortunes and crafty demons who want to sacrifice him and bring him to hell alive.
Instruct my husband to live according to Your covenants: to love his wife, take care of her and be responsible for her. Enlighten Your servant (name) to start all over again, to forget and forgive all offenses against me.
Lord, I pray to You with all my heart, do not let our family fall apart. Hold me and my husband together. Grant us love for each other, patience and strength to live together according to Your commandments. I trust in Your help, Lord. Amen."
It is necessary to rely on the will of the Lord and humbly ask for help to save the family. The loved one will return, because the power of the prayer word and the conspiracy makes any person come to his senses. And experienced believers also talk about what happens like this: prayer for one’s family enlightens the wife and she understands that there is really nothing to hold on to, love turned out to be a mistake, and the husband needs to be let go on all fours.
Prayer for a friendly family
Orthodox families should follow the example of the marriage of Peter and Fevronia. The holy princes of Murom are very revered among the people. They will carry through the trials and tribulations of life pure love, and at the end of her life she accepted monasticism.

Many young people dream of starting a family and spending their entire lives with their loved ones. But when a couple gets married, difficulties begin. Having encountered the first difficulties, the couple, due to inexperience, decide to separate. But just recently we dreamed of spending our entire lives together. A prayer for the family will help to bring the newlyweds to their senses - it helps return the relationship to normal.
The meaning of marital union
For Orthodox Christians, marriage is more than just a stamp in a passport. The Holy Fathers say that the family is a small Church. in his Messages he emphasized how important it is to live peacefully and raise children.
The Christian Union is under God's special blessing and cannot do without prayer. At the wedding, the priest asks for a special grace that unites two souls forever. Everyone wants to have reliable support, a faithful spouse who will not betray, will always listen and support. But all this comes with great difficulty. Here we need help from above.
Miracle-working Prayer for the whole family
You need to ask for your family in different situations:
- when husband and wife are in a quarrel;
- when there is a threat of separation;
- if you need help from one of your loved ones (illness, failures in life, difficulties at work);
- it is necessary to establish a peaceful environment in the house.
For any of these cases the following text is read:
Most Blessed Lady,
take my family under Your protection, instill in the hearts of my husband (my wife) and our children peace, love and unquestioning everything good, do not allow anyone from my family to be separated and difficult parting, to incurable illnesses and premature and sudden death.
And save our house and all of us living in it from fiery ignition, thieves’ attacks, all evil conditions,
and insurance, and the devil's obsession.
Yes, and we are collectively and separately, openly and secretly
Let us glorify Your Holy Name always, now and ever,
and forever and ever.
Amen
It is believed that it takes 40 days to say a miraculous prayer for a family, but in fact this is superstition. Strength is not about the number of repetitions. What is important here is faith and the thoughts with which a person approaches the sacrament. If your soul truly cares about your loved ones, then the Lord will take care of them.
Powerful prayer for family
Wedding is one of the seven Sacraments of the church; it shows how valuable the union of two people is in the eyes of the Creator. proved this by performing a miracle at Cana during wedding feast. It was there that he turned water into wine, at the request of his Mother. Therefore, today prayers for the family are read not only to God, but to the Most Holy Theotokos.
The Virgin Mary knew perfectly well how much a woman needs a reliable intercessor, capable of taking decisions upon herself. everyday issues, provide support, protect from ill-wishers. Exactly like this good husband Joseph became the Betrothed for her.
Even though Saint Joseph was only the guardian of the Virgin and Child, he fulfilled the assignment given by God with all zeal - after all, he managed to keep the divine child safe when Herod ordered the destruction of all infants.
There is an icon where Mary and Joseph are depicted together with Christ. In front of this image, you can pray to the Mother of God, reading petitions to strengthen the family.
Prayer before the icon of the Holy Family
“To the Most Blessed Lady,
take my family under Your protection, instill in the hearts of my husband (my wife) and our children peace, love and unquestioning everything good, do not allow anyone from my family to be separated and difficult parting, to incurable illnesses and premature and sudden death.
And save our house and all of us living in it from fiery ignition, thieves’ attacks, all evil conditions,
and insurance, and the devil's obsession.
Yes, and we are collectively and separately, openly and secretly
Let us glorify Your Holy Name always, now and ever,
and forever and ever.

What does the prayer say?
Not everyone understands Church Slavonic. Although the petition is short, it does not hurt to explain what it is about.
“Most Blessed Lady,” these words begin the appeal in which a Christian asks for protection and mercy for loved ones. Here deep reverence is expressed for her as the patroness family well-being. She has such holiness that she has received every blessing from the Lord. That is why Christians call her their Lady, as she is in many ways superior in the spiritual sense.
- Believers ask the Mother of God to take the entire family - spouse and children - under her protection. The protection of higher powers is necessary for everyone, because in essence a person is weak, unable to resist fate. There is a request to protect the house from thieves, fires, evil spirits and other troubles.
- The family should always stay together, because this is the meaning of its creation. Therefore, here a prayer is made so that loved ones do not suffer separation. As a rule, it is caused by unfavorable circumstances.
- Another terrible punishment for Christians is death, which can occur before a person has time to repent of his sins. Coming before God with a guilty conscience - what could be worse? No one would wish this on themselves or their loved ones.

Honor me to be an instrument of Your peace,
so that I bring love where there is hate;
so that I forgive where they offend;
for me to connect. where is the quarrel?
so that I tell the truth where there is error;
so that I build faith where doubt crushes;
so that I arouse hope where there is despair;
that I may bring light where there is darkness;
so that I can stir up joy where grief lives.
Lord, my God! Honor,
not that I should be consoled, but that I should be consoled;
not so that they understand me, but so that I understand;
not to be loved, but to be loved.
For whoever gives, receives;
he who forgets himself finds;
whoever forgives will be forgiven,
He who dies wakes up to eternal life."

In carnal warfare:
O Mother of the Lord my Creator, You are the root of virginity and the unfading color of purity. O Mother of God! Help me, the one who is weak with carnal passion and painful, for one is Thine and with Thee is the intercession of Thy Son and God. Amen.
Be the food and drink of my soul.
Be the source of my thirsting soul.
Be the light of my darkened soul.
Be a consolation in my sorrow.
Bring joy to my sorrow.
Be a deliverance against my captivity.
May there be peace and tranquility against my evil conscience.
Be wisdom against my madness.
Be an Intercessor against my slanderers.
Be an excuse against my sins.
Be sanctified against my uncleanness.
Be victorious against my enemies.
Be a shield against my persecutors.
Be my intercessor against the wrath of God.
Be a sacrifice for my sins.
Be a strength in my weakness.
Be strong against my death.
Give advice against my bewilderment.
Be strength against my weakness.
Be to me, sir, Eternal Father.
Be the Judge against those who insult me.
Be the King against the kingdom of the devil.
Be the Leader on my journey.
Be the Intercessor at the hour of my death.
Be the Patron after my death.
May you have eternal life after my resurrection.
Jesus, Son of God, have mercy on me.
God! Take away from me the idleness of spirit that destroys time; vanity of thoughts that interferes with Your presence and distracts my attention in prayer; If, while praying, I deviate from You with my thoughts, then help me, so that this entertainment is not arbitrary, and by turning my mind away, let me not turn my heart away from You. I confess to You, my Lord God, all the sins of my iniquity, now and before, committed before You: forgive me them, for the sake of Your Holy Name, and save my soul, which You have redeemed with Your precious Blood. I surrender myself to Your mercy, I surrender myself to Your will, do with me in Your goodness, and not according to my malice and lawlessness. Teach me, Lord, to arrange my affairs so that they contribute to the glorification of Your Holy Name. Have mercy, Lord, on all Christians; Hear the desire of all those crying to You, deliver from all evil, save Your servants (names), send them joy, consolation in sorrows and Your holy mercy. Lord, I pray to You especially for those who have offended and saddened me in some way or have done any evil: do not punish them for the sake of a sinner, but pour out Your goodness on them.
Lord, I pray to You for all those whom I, a sinner, have saddened, offended or tempted, in word, deed, thought, knowledge or ignorance. Lord God! Forgive us our sins and mutual insults; remove from our hearts, Lord, all indignation, suspicion, anger, bitterness, quarrels and everything that can hinder love and reduce brotherly love. Have mercy, Lord, on those who entrusted me, a sinner, unworthy, to pray for them! Have mercy, Lord, on everyone who asks for Your help. God! Make this day a day of Thy mercy, give to everyone according to his request; be the Shepherd of the lost, the leader and light of the ignorant, the mentor of the unwise, the father of the orphans, the helper of the oppressed, the doctor of the sick, the comforter of the dying, and lead us all to the desired end to You, our refuge and blessed rest. Amen.
I humbly fall down and pray for Your will to be fulfilled in my destiny.
You Yourself, Master, know how much I want to be worthy of the great joy of motherhood that You have bequeathed to the human race.
Look down from Heavenly heights on my unworthiness. Grant me this happiness: to become pregnant and bear a child. And give birth to a baby for the joy of You and people.
I promise, Lord, that I will raise the child given by You as a witness of Your will, as a servant of Your Truth, as a true Christian.
Please, Gracious Master, I beg you, overcome the weakness of my nature. You Yourself created the laws of nature and You Yourself can correct them, command them...
Perform, O Almighty of the Universe and my tender Father, a miracle. Please let me get pregnant and carry the baby to term. There are not enough words to express what is in my heart, how my soul suffers from despair... But You know this better than me.
Please, do not reject me, unworthy, give me the joy of motherhood!
How ashamed I am, Lord, for my lack of faith. Because I cannot trust You absolutely and without reasoning. I remember the Gethsemane prayer of my Savior: “Father! Oh, that You would deign to carry this cup past Me! however, not My will, but Yours be done.” This means that I too can exclaim: Merciful God, oh, if only You would carry past me the cup of losing a child... But in any case, I humbly add: however, not My will, but Yours, be done.
You yourself know how much I am expecting a child. You know how scared I am to lose him. Judge, I ask, not according to the severity that I deserve, but according to Your love. Boundless love that has mercy even on demons.
Please, I beg you, give me a child. Call to existence and light the baby, whom I will try to raise in faith and piety, as You please.
What words to express your feelings. How to convey the light and joy that fills me, my dear Lord. Alleluia - I praise the Lord! And again the river: Alleluia!
No, Vladyka, I will not forget the promises I made in the days of childlessness and the days of the hardships of pregnancy. And I myself will be a messenger of Your mercy and I will teach my children the same.
It was not the eyes of another, but my own that saw the miracle. Not the hands of a stranger, but my own, caress and embrace the baby You gave.
What a happiness it is to feed him, swaddle him, teach him the first words, bring him into the temple, bring him to the Chalice... Thank you for this happiness.
And I understand perfectly well that I have been honored not only with Your generous gift, but also with the gift of responsibility. Because it depends on me whether my child will become sinful, greedy, lazy, vile, or grow up to be kind, hardworking, honest, and morally good. Amen.
