The Wonderworker was born in Lycia. From childhood I was interested in religion. The Lord gave him a priceless gift - great power, with the help of which Nicholas pacified the elements, healed deadly diseases, and helped poor people.

The saint was considered the patron saint of poor people. On Christmas Eve he gave gifts to children from poor families. He did not ask for gratitude, he did it secretly, but over time people learned about his good deeds and nicknamed him Saint Nicholas.

After death, the Pleasant continues to help those in need.

You can ask for bright love, marriage, well-being, healing of mental and physical illnesses.

If the intentions are pure, the Saint will hear the prayer and help. Don't forget to thank the Miracle Worker when you receive what you ask for.

Prayer is a person’s communication with the Lord himself, which benefits both soul and body. Even among the so-called “non-believers” or “atheists” it is unlikely to be easy to find someone who has never asked the Higher Powers for help in their affairs.

A special case is when it’s hard for us, when we experience psychological, physical or moral discomfort. We ask God and His saints for help and assistance.

In the tradition of the Holy Church there are many prayers for any reason, and all of them, read sincerely, help in every need. If you cannot read prayers due to a serious illness, you can listen to them and silently ask for help.

St. Nicholas the Wonderworker has special power and grace to help.

Moreover, despite the fact that the saint lived in a distant warm country, his memory is especially honored in Russia. He is depicted on a triptych together with the Mother of God and the Lord Jesus - this is not by chance, for the great help and great deeds of the holy saint of God Nicholas, and he has enormous power.

The bishop became famous for many miracles, but more than anything else he is known for his great intercession for the undeservedly offended. He was not afraid to protect an innocent person from execution, snatching the sword from the hands of the executioner - this symbol is forever etched in the memory of mankind, therefore everyone who needs help resorts to the intercession of Nicholas the Pleasant.

How to ask for help?

Every person can ask Nicholas the Wonderworker for help in business; the main thing is to sincerely believe in the Lord and His Will, which accompanies us all the days of our lives.

In order for God to hear our prayer, we must forgive and ask for forgiveness from everyone with whom we are in a quarrel. This must be done sincerely, with all your heart. Only after this is it acceptable to begin the prayer itself. You should read the words of the prayer carefully, without being distracted for a second, feeling every word.

Do not forget, after receiving the requested help, to sincerely thank God and St. Nicholas for the help provided - God pleases prayers of thanks.

You can donate to the needs of the temple, light candles in front of the icon of St. Nicholas, order a prayer service to the holy saint of God. It is useful and correct to give generous alms in gratitude for the assistance provided in your affairs.

Prayer for help

A prayer to Nicholas the Wonderworker for help should not be fulfilled only in its form, only a sincere request can be fulfilled - the form must be filled with content.

Even if you are reading a ready-made text (for example, an akathist), your thoughts must be concentrated and free from any evil thoughts.

Prayer to Nicholas the Wonderworker “For help” “All-merciful Father Nicholas, shepherd and teacher, all who flow with faith to your intercession and call upon you with warm prayer! Strive quickly and deliver Christ’s flock from the wolves that destroy it; and protect every Christian country and save with your holy prayers from worldly rebellion, cowardice,

invasions of foreigners and internecine warfare, from famine, flood, fire, sword and sudden death. And just as you had mercy on three men imprisoned, and you delivered them from the king’s wrath and the beating of the sword, so have mercy on me, in mind, word and deed, in the darkness of sins, and deliver me from the wrath of God and eternal punishment, as through your intercession and help With His mercy and grace, Christ God will give me a quiet and sinless life to live in this world, and will deliver me from this place, and will make me worthy to be on the right hand with all the saints forever and ever. Amen." If you want to read a prayer that you found not in a special liturgical book, church brochure, or collection of prayers, but, for example, on the Internet (these days this is a popular source of a wide variety of information), or received on a piece of notebook paper from a grandmother you know, ask for advice a spiritually experienced comrade (friend, relative, parishioner of the same church as you).

It is not only possible, but even necessary in difficult cases to resort to the help of a priest - he will tell you exactly what prayer to read or listen to.

Help can be received not only from God and His holy saints - when a person is surrounded by problems on all sides, he can turn in a completely different direction.

These days, the Internet is full of promises to solve all sorts of problems quickly and easily. These can be simple swindlers (harming your wallet), or magicians and esotericists of all stripes, causing serious damage to the soul. If you are asked to pray with a certain number of candles, or to prepare for prayer in a strange, confusing way, do not do this under any circumstances. The only worthy and necessary preparation for prayer is humility and sincere repentance for one’s sins.

Akathist to St. Nicholas the Wonderworker, video

How to pray to St. Nicholas the Wonderworker correctly. Miracles Performed by the Saint

To understand how to correctly pronounce a prayer to St. Nicholas the Wonderworker, you need to clearly formulate what the request is and understand the meaning of what was said. Every word should radiate faith in Jesus Christ and the Wonderworker himself.

First of all, you need to know who Nicholas the Wonderworker, Archbishop of Myra in Lycia, is. His parents were Theophanes and Nonna, descendants of noble and wealthy Christians from the city of Patar, located in the Lycia region. For a long time the couple had no children. Turning to the Lord, pious Nonna begged for a son. He was named after his uncle, the bishop of the city of Patar.

Even as a child, Nikolai showed a commitment to Christianity. Starting from the moment when baby Nicholas stood in the font for 3 hours on his feet without outside help during baptism, out of respect for the Holy Trinity, every day he showed humility, meekness and love for the Lord. The parents tried to instill in their son spiritual values, a love of prayer, and reading sacred books. Nicholas the Wonderworker spent all his childhood years praying in church during the day and reading Holy Scripture at night. And while still very young, he showed a lot of spiritual maturity.

When the time came to choose what to do in life, on the advice of his uncle, the bishop, Nicholas the Wonderworker was ordained a presbyter. During the ceremony, the bishop solemnly declared that a new sun was rising to console all the sad and help all those in need. Ordination to the priesthood doubled my strength in accomplishing spiritual feats. Nicholas humbly served the Lord. Having replaced his uncle in the rank of bishop of Patar, he protected and cared for his parishioners. When his parents died, Nikolai became the heir great fortune and spent all the money on helping the poor and needy. And since one needs to help not for glory, but to help those in need, Saint Nicholas tried to help secretly, so that people would not know their benefactor.

The most powerful prayer to Cyprian against witchcraft and damage

Upon his uncle’s return from the pilgrimage, Nicholas the Wonderworker, having asked for the bishop’s blessing, sails by ship to Palestine. Even during landing, it warns of an approaching storm. With incessant prayers he pacifies the elements, and then resurrects a sailor who crashed on the ship’s deck. In all the settlements where travelers stopped, his ability to heal illnesses and comfort the desperate was manifested.

Upon arrival in the Holy Land, Nicholas the Wonderworker lived in the Orthodox village of Beit Jala. One night, the saint intended to pray in the temple. The locked doors opened by themselves, and Nikolai was able to pray. He intended to remain in the Holy Land, completely withdraw from people and devote himself to serving the Lord, but, by supreme command, he returned to his homeland, where he continued his asceticism in a monastery called Holy Zion. Trembling seized Nicholas the Wonderworker when he heard a voice proclaiming the need to serve the people. The new vision of the Son of God foreshadowed bringing spiritual enlightenment to people, leading the church council of all Lycia. The saint allegedly received the Gospel as a gift from the Lord, and from Holy Mother of God received an omophorion.

Having moved to the city of Myra, Nicholas the Wonderworker led an ascetic lifestyle, slept wherever he had to, could eat absolutely nothing, but was sure to attend all services in the temple. After the death of the Archbishop of the city of Myra, John, a council is held at which the election of a new head of the Lycian Church takes place. The senior bishop had a vision that he needed to choose a person who would be the first to come to prayer in the temple in the morning, and his name would be Nikolai. The elder was waiting for the first person to pray when he arrived at the temple in the evening. Just after midnight, Nikolai entered the church and quietly and humbly answered the question about his name.

Elected Archbishop of Myra of the Lycian Church, Nicholas the Wonderworker himself instructs himself to serve people, and not himself. His position made it possible to do good deeds no longer secretly, but to glorify Christianity and Jesus Christ. For himself, Saint Nicholas did not demand any blessings in life. Meekness and humility, a kind heart and lack of arrogance remained his main foundations. The simplest clothes and a single meal of lean food in the evening, which he sometimes did not have time to take. Very often petitioners came to the shepherd’s home, begging for help. Nicholas the Wonderworker protected the offended, fed the hungry, and strengthened the spirit of the unfortunate.

This is a difficult time for Christianity. With the arrival of Diocletian, temples were destroyed, divine literature was burned, and clergy were tortured. For glorifying the name of the Lord, Archbishop Nicholas, along with many believers, ends up in prison, where he continues to raise his spirit and strengthen his faith in Jesus Christ in order to be ready for tests for his faith. Having endured all the severe torments, he was returned to the flock by Equal-to-the-Apostles Constantine.

The next test in the life of Nicholas the Wonderworker was the fight against the false teachings of Arius. For slapping him in the face, in the heat of righteous anger, Saint Nicholas was deprived of his dignity, and his Gospel and omophorion were taken away. The correctness of the Wonderworker triumphed, and he was returned to his rank.

In his peaceful life, Nicholas performed many miracles to save the health and lives of parishioners. During the famine, he redirected grain traders to the shores of Lycia. He reconciled the two warring parties during the rebellion in the city of Plakomat, then freed three innocent citizens of the city sentenced to death by the city governor Eustathius. Appearing at the moment of execution, Nicholas the Wonderworker takes the sword from the executioner and frees those sentenced to death. The royal commanders who observed the execution are sent to prison according to a conspiracy. Having seen with their own eyes how prayer works, they begin to call on St. Nicholas the Wonderworker for help. The prayer was heard, and that same night, Equal-to-the-Apostles Constantine had a dream in which the voice of Archbishop Nicholas demanded the release of the governor, threatening deprivation of power. The case of the convicted was reviewed and the innocent were released.

Glory and people's rumors about wonderful help and the intercession of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker expanded further and further. Ordinary sailors, caught in a storm, lost all ability to fight for their lives. All that remained was prayer, and then they called on the Wonderworker for help. At the same moment, Saint Nicholas appeared at the helm of their broken ship and led them to the house. Performing good deeds for people during his lifetime, after his repose the Wonderworker hears all the prayers addressed to him.

The life of the man of God ended with a brief illness on December 6 (December 19 Gregorian calendar) 342 years. His relics did not succumb to decay and rested in the city of Peace.

On May 9 (May 22, Gregorian style), 1097, the relics of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker arrived in the city of Bari, in southern Italy, where they are still kept.

Nicholas the Wonderworker in Catholicism

Nicholas the Wonderworker was recognized as a saint long before the Roman Catholic Church began regulating canonization procedures in the late 10th century (at that time local bishops canonized saints; in the late 1100s, canonization in the Roman catholic church became the responsibility of the Pope). In fact, the holiness of Nicholas the Wonderworker significantly predates the schism of 1054 between the Eastern and Western churches.

Before formal canonization procedures, people venerated those who were exemplars of the faith in their areas. As the saint's reputation grew beyond the local area, the saint became increasingly popular.

The sailors who had a special relationship with Nicholas carried news of this Saint along the shores of the seas and rivers throughout known world. Thus, many seaports and large river stops can boast of a church or chapel dedicated to St. Nicholas the Wonderworker.

200 years after his death, Nicholas the Pleasant was already recognized and revered in very significant ways. Back in the 6th century, Justinian I built a church in honor of St. Nicholas in Constantinople. The name of Nicholas the Wonderworker is included in the liturgy of the late 6th century, attributed to St. Chrysostom.

Nicholas was a Confessor—one who publicly confessed Christ during times of persecution, remaining faithful despite imprisonment, torture, or exile. In the Middle Ages, St. Nicholas was glorified as a true saint of the people for the way he lived. Nicholas the Pleasant was undoubtedly an early example of a saint who was honored for the testimony of his life. Nicholas was a saint whose life testified to God's work through social life, he lived fulfilling the will of God. Nicholas the Wonderworker lived to old age and died peacefully. This may be one of the reasons why he was so popular: he was an example of how to live and not how to die in times of persecution.

Therefore, St. Nicholas the Pleasant does not have a date for formal canonization in the Catholic Church. Rather, the record shows a gradual spread of reverence and veneration for the Saint. It was included in the calendars of diocesan saints and eventually included in the normative calendars of the entire Church, both Eastern and Western.

In 1968, the Roman Catholic calendar was revised. The celebration of ninety Saints, including Nicholas, became optional. This means that celebrating their feast days is not mandatory for faithful Catholics. However, Nicholas the Wonderworker, with all the Saints in this group, is still considered a real saint in the Roman Catholic Church.

Calendar reform with fewer universal holidays allows more local customs, holidays, and saints to receive special attention, as it relieves the entire Roman Rite church from having to observe saints who have no local, cultural, or ethnic connection. This calendar reform did not exclude St. Nicholas from the list of saints, but only his feast day from the universal Roman liturgical calendar. This makes the feast day of St. Nicholas, December 6, optional under Roman Catholic law.

Nevertheless, Nicholas the Wonderworker is rightfully called a saint, and all Christians in the world revere him.

How St. Nicholas the Wonderworker is revered in the Roman Catholic Church

For almost 1,700 years, St. Nicholas the Wonderworker was one of the most popular saints of the Church - in the East and in the West. The number of churches, chapels, religious institutions and altars dedicated to him throughout Christendom is incalculable. According to the new edition of Butler's Lives of the Saints, In England alone, about 400 churches are dedicated to him. He is the patron saint of Russia, Greece, Germany and countless cities and regions throughout Christendom. Nicholas the Wonderworker is also the patron saint of children.

He was born into a Christian family in Patara, which is now Turkey. Nicholas became a priest and was eventually consecrated Bishop of Myra. Although his name does not appear on the oldest lists of bishops present at the Council of Nicaea, there is a strong tradition among the Greeks that he was there and even slapped Arius in the face when the archbishop was bold enough to claim that Jesus Christ was not the Second Person Holy Trinity, a kind of supernatural superman created by God the Father.

The most popular story about St. Nicholas, which is still known today, tells of his compassion for three poor young women. Their father lost his fortune and with it all hope of providing a dowry for his daughters. To save them from poverty and the threat that they would have to support themselves as prostitutes, St. Nicholas threw bags of gold coins into open window Houses poor family so that each daughter has enough to make a good marriage.

In the 11th century, the Seljuk Turks began to invade the territory of Byzantium. By 1084, Mira, site of the tomb of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker, was in Muslim hands. Although the Turks did not desecrate the shrine, many Christians in the West considered it scandalous that the relics of St. Nicholas should be in the hands of the enemy. The Venetians planned to save the relics of the Saint, but in 1087 merchants from Bari in southern Italy arrived there first. Today, the relics of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker lie in the crypt of the great Romanesque basilica that the people of Bari built for the Saint, and pilgrims - Catholic and Orthodox - continue to visit the temple.

On December 6, the day of remembrance of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker, the patron saint of children, it is customary among Austrians, Germans, Swiss, Belgians and Dutch to give sweets and perhaps a small gift to children. Thus, in Catholic world St. Nicholas Day is a holiday that has become a sweet prelude before Christmas.
