Prayer invocation to the Most Holy Theotokos, St. John of Kronstadt

Oh, Lady! Yes, not in vain and in vain do we call You the Mistress: reveal and manifest over us Your holy, living, active dominion. Reveal, for you can do everything for good, as the Mother of the all-good of the all-good King; disperse the darkness of our hearts, reflect the arrows of crafty spirits, flatteringly moved at us. May the peace of Thy Son, Thy peace reign in our hearts, may we all joyfully exclaim: who is after the Lord, like our Lady, our all-good, all-merciful and most swift Intercessor?

Save us, O most pure, all-good, all-wise and all-merciful! You are the Mother of our Savior, Who of all names deigned to be called the Savior more than anyone else. It is natural for us, wandering in this life, to fall, for we are overlaid with many-passionate flesh, surrounded by spirits of malice in high places, seducing to sin, we live in an adulterous and sinful world, seducing to sin; and You are above all sin, You are the brightest Sun, You are the Most Pure, All-good and All-pleasing, You tend to cleanse us, defiled by sins, as a mother cleanses her children, if we call on You humbly for help, You tend to raise us, who are constantly falling, to intercede to protect and save us, who are slandered by the spirits of evil, and to instruct us to walk towards every path of salvation.

Prayer to the Mother of God

What to pray to You, what to ask of You? You see everything, you know Itself: look into my soul and give her what she needs. You, who have endured everything, overcome everything, you will understand everything. You, who raised the Child in a manger and accepted Him with Your hands from the Cross, You alone know the whole height of joy, all the oppression of grief. You, who received the whole human race as an adoption, look at me with maternal care. Lead me from the shadows of sin to Your Son. I see a tear that irrigated Your face. It's over me You spilled it and let it wash away the traces of my sins. Here I have come, I am standing, I am waiting for Your response, O Mother of God, O All-Singing, O Mistress! I don't ask for anything, I just stand before You. Only my heart, a poor human heart, exhausted in anguish for truth, I cast down to Your Most Pure Feet, Lady! May all who call upon You reach the eternal day with You and bow down before You face to face.

Rejoice Virgin Mary

Virgin Mother of God rejoice, the Mother of God helps through the prayers of the faithful. “Virgin Mother of God, rejoice, Blessed Mary, the Lord is with you; Blessed are you in women and blessed is the fruit of your womb, as if the Savior gave birth to our souls”

Mother of God (Virgin Mary) - who gave birth to God.

Rejoice is a common form of greeting common in the East.

Gracious - full of the grace of God; letters. blessed.

Blessed - blessed.

In wives - among women.

Like the Savior you gave birth - for you gave birth to the Savior.
Words rejoice, the Lord is with you, blessed are you among women taken from the greeting of the Archangel Gabriel, when he announced to the Blessed Virgin Mary about the birth of the Son of God from Her according to the flesh (Lk. 1, 28).

Words Blessed are you in women mean that the Theotokos, as the Mother of God, is glorified more than all other women (Luke 1:42; Ps. 44:18).

Words blessed is the fruit of thy womb taken from the greeting of the righteous Elizabeth, when the Holy Virgin Mary, after the annunciation, wished to visit her (Luke 1:42).

fruit of the womb Hers is the Son of God, Jesus Christ.

On Ecumenical Council once said the words: “Whoever reads with attention 150 times the prayer “Our Lady of the Virgin, rejoice ...”, he will gain a special Protection of the Mother of God over himself”.

IN difficult moments Orthodox read a prayer to the Mother of God, Virgin Mother of God, rejoice. People pray for the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary in any difficulties and for help in any endeavors.

Through the prayer of the Theotokos, virgin, rejoice, the Theotokos answers the faithful. You can read it at any time. Any prayer according to our faith can become miraculous. There are no prayers for special occasions”- for health, good luck, so that the Queen of Heaven helps in work or study. This is considered superstition. People pray in front of a certain icon of the Mother of God, as their soul tells them.

Virgin Mother of God rejoice in Greek

Rejoice Virgin Mother of God (Moldavian choir)

Hail to the Mother of God Virgin, choir of the Kovil Monastery from Serbia

Hail to the Mother of God Virgin of the Resurrection Monastery

Rejoice Virgin Mary, Valaam

If the prayer of the righteous can do much, then the prayer of the Most Holy Theotokos is all the more powerful.

Even during Her earthly life, She found grace from the Lord and turned to Him with intercession for those who asked for Her help and intercession.

The Most Holy Mother of God was honored with special grace and closeness to the Throne of God after Her Dormition. She moved to Heaven not only in order to abide in the radiance and majesty of the Divine Glory of Her Son, but also in order to intercede for us with Her prayers before Him. "Rejoice! I am with you all the days," She said, appearing to the holy apostles.

The Blessed Virgin, living on earth, herself experienced the same hardships, need, troubles and misfortunes that we also experience. She experienced the sorrow of the suffering on the cross and the death of her Son. She knows our infirmities, needs and sorrows. Each of our sins causes Her suffering, and at the same time, each of our troubles finds Her sympathy. What mother does not care for her children and is not heartbroken by their misfortunes? What mother leaves them without her help and attention? The Mother of God is always ready to give us timely help.

The Mother of God shines like the sun and warms us with the rays of Her love and enlivens our souls with the grace given to Her by God. By Her Spirit She always abides on earth. When Blessed Andrew the Fool-for-Christ, like the Apostle Paul, was caught up by the spirit into the heavenly abodes and saw the Lord there, he began to grieve, not seeing the Most Pure Theotokos. But the Angel told him that She had gone into the world to help people.

We are all burdened with sorrows, life's adversities, illnesses and misfortunes, for we all sin. The Word of God says that there is no person who has lived on earth and has not sinned. But God is the highest Love, and out of love for His Mother and for us, He accepts Her prayers. We believe in Her constant intercession and intercession for us sinners before the Merciful and Humanitarian God and in the power of Her prayers. Let us resort to Her as to a quiet and kind refuge and diligently call on Her all-holy and all-singing name. And She will not leave us with the unexpected joy of salvation.

Prayers for the intercession of the Virgin

Ideally, this prayer is better to say before the icon "Seven-shot" (Softening of evil hearts), but any other image of the Most Holy Theotokos will do.

“Soften our evil hearts, Mother of God,
and quench those who hate us
and all the narrowness of our souls, let go.
Looking at Your holy image,
We are touched by your suffering and mercy for us
and we kiss your wounds,
but our arrows, tormenting you, we are horrified.
Do not give us, Mother of Mercy,
perish in our hardness of heart and from the hardness of our neighbors.
You are truly evil hearts softening.


Prayers to the Most Holy Theotokos

“Under your mercy we resort, Virgin Mary:
do not look down on our prayers in sorrow, but deliver us from troubles,
One Pure and Blessed.
Holy Mother of God, save us!”

“O long-suffering Mother of God, Exalted all the daughters of the earth,
according to His purity and according to the multitude of sufferings,
You transferred to the lands,
accept our painful sighs
and keep us under the shelter of Your mercy.
For a different refuge and warm intercession, don’t you know,
but, as if having boldness to the One born from Thee,
help and save us with your prayers,
may we reach the Kingdom of Heaven without fail,
where with all the saints we will sing in the Trinity to the one God, now and forever, and forever and ever. Amen".

“O Most Holy and Blessed Lady Theotokos,
accept these prayers of the heart,
with great hope and faith in Your immeasurable mercy, ascended,
have mercy, intercede, save and protect me, the servant (slave) of God (his)
from all evil and give me Your help (indicate the request).
Zealous intercessor, deliver me through this prayers,
uplifted to Thee with all my heart and soul,
from all witchcraft harm, the temptations of the world,
from sinful lusts, from the wiles of the devil
and from the attack of enemies visible and invisible ..
And cover with Your Honest Prayer Veil from all evil. Amen"

« O Most Holy Lady Theotokos, Queen of Heaven,
save and have mercy on us, your sinful servants (name),
from vain slander and from all sorts of troubles, misfortunes and sudden deaths,
have mercy in the daytime hours, morning and evening,
and at all times preserve us - standing, sitting,
walking on every path, sleeping in the hours of the night,
supply, intercede and cover, protect.
Lady Mother of God, from all enemies visible and invisible,
from every evil situation,
in any place and at any time, be to us Mati, the blessed invincible wall,
and a strong intercession always,
and now, and forever, and forever and ever. Amen".

There is a short prayer to the Most Holy Theotokos, which we should say as often as possible.

“Virgin Mother of God, rejoice, Blessed Mary, the Lord is with you;
Blessed are You in women, and blessed is the fruit of Your womb,
like the Savior gave birth to our souls"

These words are taken from the greeting of the Archangel Gabriel, when he announced to the Blessed Virgin Mary about the birth of the Son of God from Her according to the flesh (Luke 1:28).

“I cordially congratulate you, dear brothers and sisters, on the Feast of the Assumption of the Most Holy Theotokos! By the prayerful intercession of the Queen of Heaven, may the All-Merciful Lord keep you all in good health and in all prosperity in this temporary life and eternal life with the saints! .

28.08.2016 The labors of the brethren of the monastery 11 693

The twelfth Feast of the Assumption of Our Most Holy Lady Theotokos and Ever-Virgin Mary in the Valaam Monastery began with a festive all-night vigil, which was led by the abbot of the monastery, His Grace Pankraty, Bishop of Trinity. His Eminence was co-served by the brethren of the monastery in holy orders.

And just as the apostles stood at the deathbed of the Most Holy Theotokos, so the monks of the monastery with lit candles prayed near the Holy Shroud. "That's how I graduated earthly life Your Blessed Virgin Mary! With lit lamps and the singing of psalms, the apostles carried the body of the Mother of God to Gethsemane, where Her parents and Joseph were buried,” wrote St. Theophan the Recluse.

“Most Pure Risen! “Truly Risen!” – these are the words used today by the inhabitants of the monastery. Since ancient times, the feast of the Assumption of the Mother of God has been called the Mother of God Pascha, therefore Orthodox Christians on the day of this great celebration can greet each other with a mutual greeting: “The Most Pure One is Risen! “Truly Risen!”

The Dormition of the Most Holy Theotokos symbolizes another victory over death and hell, won no longer by the God-man, but by the earthly Virgin - “the purest and most perfect” of all people, and yet one of us, earthly. And it is not for nothing that, in commemoration of this event, the clergy perform a festive divine service on this day in sky-blue vestments. At the all-night vigil in the main church of the monastery, the brethren and guests venerated the Shroud of the Most Holy Theotokos, and the abbot of the Valaam Monastery, Bishop Pankraty of Trinity, anointed all those praying with consecrated oil.

In the “Eulogy…” St. John of Damascus, singing the Mother of God, also says that Her Assumption is not just a beautiful legend, of which there were many in apocryphal literature. It is filled with deep spiritual and theological meaning. For She, through whom the Light of Christ has shone forth to the world, is worthy of such a death: “... it was necessary that this godly dwelling place, an unexplored source of water of forgiveness, an unplowed field of heavenly bread, an unirrigated vine of immortality vines, an evergreen and beautifully fruitful olive tree of the Father’s mercy, should not be enclosed in the voids of the earth . But just as the holy and immaculate body of the Lord, which from her became hypostatic to the Word, rose from the tomb on the third day, so the Mother had to be taken away from the tomb and move to the Son. And just as He Himself descended to Her, so She also had to ascend to the heavenly tabernacle. It is thanks to the labors of St. John of Damascus that the feast of the Assumption of the Most Holy Theotokos is introduced into the liturgical circle. It was this great saint who truly sang and tried to theologically comprehend the personality of the Queen of Heaven.

Dormition, completing the annual cycle of the great twelfth Orthodox church holidays, is not dedicated to death, as it might seem at first glance. The Slavic word "assumption" means sleep, and, according to church tradition, the meaning of this holiday is akin to the meaning of Easter - there is no longer that death that awaited everyone before the Resurrection of Christ. And since it is not there, then there is no sorrow for death, no fear of it.

In Rus', the Assumption has long been one of the most beloved holidays: since the time of St. Prince Vladimir, Assumption churches have been built everywhere - the first cathedral church in Kiev, the Tithe Church, was dedicated to the Assumption of the Virgin, and the first stone church of the Valaam Monastery was erected in honor of the Assumption in 1785.

“I cordially congratulate you, dear brothers and sisters, on the Feast of the Assumption of the Most Holy Theotokos! By the prayerful intercession of the Queen of Heaven, may the All-Merciful Lord keep you all in good health and in all prosperity in this temporary life and eternal life with the saints! In prayers, the Unsleeping One, and in intercession, May our immutable hope not leave us sinners with His intercession and help all the days of our life! Holy Mother of God, save us!” - this is how the hegumen of the Valaam Monastery congratulated all Orthodox Christians, Bishop Pankraty of Trinity.
