About success in entrepreneurship

Only, of course, in an HONEST and PLEASING way, can one pray to St. Seraphim of Vyritsky the Wonderworker, who before becoming a monk was a very rich merchant who earned his entire huge fortune from scratch only through labor and God’s help.

Oh, God-blessed and most merciful Father Seraphim! Leading you even after death as a living being, we fall down with faith and cry out to you: do not forget your poor to the end, but mercifully look upon your spiritual flock and protect them, good shepherd, with your favorable prayers to God. Ask us from the Lord time for repentance and correction of sinful lives, for we weigh all the weaknesses of our soul: not imams of works of faith and salvation, not imams of zeal for true pleasing to God, we are captivated by the mind in destructive passions, corrupted by the heart in vile lusts. What are we slaughtering, and what are we hoping for, without having destroyed the temples of our souls? To her, holy father, stretch out your hand in prayer to the Lord and beg the Savior of the human race to touch our petrified hearts with grace, wash us with tears of repentance, restore us in faith, strengthen us in piety and bestow everything useful for salvation. Do not disgrace our hope, which according to God and the Mother of God we place in you, but be a quick helper to us, a comforter in sorrows and a patron in circumstances, so that through your prayers we may be worthy of being an heir to be the Kingdom of Heaven, where all the saints constantly glorify and sing the Most Honorable and Magnificent Name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen.

Prayer to Saint Nicholas the Wonderworker for good luck in trade and business

Among the huge host of saints, Nicholas the Wonderworker is especially revered by the people. Since the times of Rus', his name has not left the lips of Orthodox Christians, glorifying his greatness, intercession and first aid.

With his good deeds during his earthly life, Nicholas earned the mercy of the Almighty and received the miraculous power of miracles, which he used for the benefit of those in need.

The prayer books contain many texts intended for seeking help from the Pleasant, including a prayer for successful trading to St. Nicholas the Wonderworker and for help in business.

Whoever sincerely turns to the saint with a request, he will not leave him in trouble and will definitely help.

When to turn to the Holy One for help

A prayer for business to St. Nicholas the Wonderworker is read when an entrepreneur has opened his own business or has certain problems. The same applies to prayers for trade.

Nikolai will never allow a person to become impoverished, will help avoid poverty and bankruptcy. It was not for nothing that Russian merchants and traders erected churches and chapels as a sign of gratitude to the saint.

Oh, all-good Father Nicholas, shepherd and teacher of all who flow by faith to your intercession, and who call on you with warm prayer, quickly strive and deliver the flock of Christ from the wolves that destroy it, that is, from the invasion of the evil Latins who are rising against us.

Protect and preserve our country, and every country existing in Orthodoxy, with your holy prayers from worldly rebellion, the sword, the invasion of foreigners, from internecine and bloody warfare. 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 and delivered the Orthodox people of Great, Little and White Rus' from the destructive heresy of the Latin. For through your intercession and help, and through His mercy and grace, may Christ God look with His merciful eye on people who exist in ignorance, even though they have not known their right hand, especially young people, by whom the Latin seductions are spoken to turn away from the Orthodox faith, may he enlighten the minds of His people, may they not be tempted and fall away from the faith of their fathers, may their conscience, lulled by vain wisdom and ignorance, awaken and turn their will to the preservation of the holy Orthodox faith, may they remember the faith and humility of our fathers, may they live for the Orthodox faith who have laid down and accepted the warm prayers of His holy saints, who have shone in our land, keeping us from the delusion and heresy of the Latin, so that, having preserved us in holy Orthodoxy, He will grant us at His terrible Judgment to stand on the right hand with all the saints. Amen

Dedicated and selfless work, honest trade and business, prayer coming from the heart - this is the key to a generous reward that will be sent down from Heaven to the one asking for help.

The miraculous life of the saint

Nicholas, a Greek by birth, was born into a wealthy family, where his parents were known as God-fearing people. They had no children for a long time and in old age, having made a vow to devote the child to serving the Lord, the future mother Nonna became pregnant and soon gave birth to a son.

From that time on, she became barren, which meant that she could no longer have another son like Nicholas - the conqueror of nations. He was supposed to be the first and the last.

His chosenness of God was noticeable to those around him from birth. During the Sacrament of Baptism, the baby stood on his feet on his own without anyone's support for three hours. On fasting days - Wednesday and Friday - the baby refused to accept mother's milk. Having matured a little, the boy spent whole days in the temple of God.

After the death of his parents, Nikolai inherited a large inheritance, which he donated to charity. And the future saint himself decided to devote the rest of his life to desert solitude, prayer and communication with God. But the wish was not destined to come true: the Heavenly Voice directed Nicholas to return to the city, serve the people and bring the Word of God to the world.

Returning to his homeland, Nicholas began to help his uncle, the Bishop of Patara. He was respected and loved by his flock; people were amazed at the wisdom of the “young old man.” His sincere sermons pierced people's hearts with God's Light.

One day, while traveling to the Holy Land on a ship, a terrible disaster raged. It seemed that there was no chance of escape. But Nikolai Ugodnik prayed to the Almighty and the strong sea storm subsided, the ship was not damaged, and the crew and passengers were saved. A young man who fell from a high mast and fell to his death was revived by the young Wonderworker.

Before God's chosen one in Jerusalem, the doors of a locked church opened of their own accord.

Soon Bishop John of Myra of Lycia died. Nicholas was chosen as his successor, but this event was preceded by a miracle. The Council of Bishops could not decide on the candidacy of the future primate. But on the night before the Council, the Most Pure Virgin Mary appeared to the presiding officer in a dream and indicated the name of God’s chosen bishop. The Mother of God appeared to Nicholas himself along with her Son. They placed an omophorion on him and handed him the Holy Gospel - a symbol of episcopal authority.

A similar thing happened to the Wonderworker again. During the 1st Ecumenical Council, the saint exposed the teachings of the evil Arius and his heresy, for which he was defrocked and imprisoned. And again the Virgin Mary and her Son brought justice: They appeared in the cell and presented the prisoner with an omophorion and the Gospel. This phenomenon happened in a dream vision to several members of the Council, and the next morning they hurried to the arrested man. Seeing in reality what had been revealed to them in a dream, the accusers freed Nicholas from prison and reinstated him.

In old age, when the saint was more than 70 years old, he completed his earthly life. The transition to eternal life was accompanied by the reading of psalms and great joy. The saint departed to the Lord, accompanied by Angels, and was met in Heaven by many saints.

Many people attended the burial ceremony. The honest body was laid in the local cathedral. Miracles happened at the relics of Nicholas, those who asked received what they wanted, and the sick were healed from the fragrant healing world that exuded the mortal relics of the saint.

How to pray before the face of the Holy Saint for help in trading

Trading is about making a profit. When turning to the saint about good luck in trading, you should not think only about the income received.

You can pray in your own words or read standard texts from the prayer book.

The main thing is that the saint must feel the strong faith of the person praying and the request coming from the depths of his heart.

if things in business are not going the way you wanted, and problems arise, you should under no circumstances become discouraged;
You should always help those in need: give alms to the poor, donate to the temple, help shelters, do charity work, feed homeless animals;
the product sold must be of high quality, useful and durable;
after receiving the requested help, one must not forget about the words of gratitude to God, Nicholas the Wonderworker and the holy helpers.

These simple tips will help you achieve the desired heights in trade and business!

At the very beginning of starting your own business, it is recommended to order a prayer service for success in any good endeavor.
It is necessary to approach the priest with the palms of your hands folded crosswise (the right hand should lie on the left) and ask him for a blessing (permission, parting words). If the cleric blesses a good deed and places his hand on the palm of the person asking, then it should be kissed. If the priest blesses you with a cross, then you need to venerate the cross with your lips.
If an entrepreneur opens a new store, office, factory, warehouse, etc., then a priest should be invited to consecrate the premises. The small crosses that the priest will draw on the walls cannot be washed off.
There must be icons hanging in the room. For example, the faces of saints should hang, protecting the premises from fire, from theft, from evil people and sorcerers, for help in travel, trade and business. In a word, the chosen icon must correspond to the profile of the enterprise.
If a difficult situation arises in business, then you should rush to church and order a prayer service to St. Nicholas the Wonderworker. The water received from the prayer service should be taken in the morning on an empty stomach. You can also sprinkle the goods with it so that it sells quickly and does not spoil.
There have always been many envious people in business matters. If it seems to you that you are envied, jinxed or damaged, then urgently start reading the prayer “May God rise again.”
Do not forget to thank the Lord, the Mother of God and all the saints for their help, even if business and trade are not going as desired. Be grateful for what you have, and if you complain, you will lose everything.

Nicholas of Myra safely passed the path of life on mortal earth, joyfully passed into eternity, after death he was glorified as a saint and to this day helps people, saving their souls from destruction.

It has long been accepted that every saint is especially strong in a particular area. For example, Panteleimon the Healer helps with illnesses, the unmercenary saints Cosmas and Damian help with teaching, Saint Spyridon of Trimifuntsky willingly responds to the prayers of those who are experiencing financial difficulties, and the holy Great Martyr John the New with business prosperity.

The most common question in the church is: who should I light a candle in the hope of helping with one or another life problem? Now there is a specific answer to this question for entrepreneurs and businessmen. They had their own patron saint.
This happened the other day. With the blessing of Patriarch Kirill, St. Joseph, abbot of Volotsk, miracle worker, was declared the heavenly patron of Orthodox entrepreneurship and economics.
It is clear why the Patriarch’s choice fell on this saint. Joseph Volotsky was talented not only in church ministry and theology, but also in business.
He lived at the end of the 15th - beginning of the 16th centuries. He founded a monastery in Volokolamsk, which quickly became economically prosperous. This was the creed of St. Joseph. He believed that the Church should expand its economic and material capabilities in order to use them for good purposes.

At the same time, Joseph not only skillfully led the monks and organized the economy of the monastery, but he himself worked equally with everyone else. As his life says, “he was skilled in every human activity: he felled wood, carried logs, chopped and sawed.” And outwardly he was no different from the others - he wore simple rags and bast shoes made from bast trees. He came to church before everyone else, sang in the choir along with the rest of the choir members, preached, prayed, and was the last to leave the church.
The experience of Joseph Volotsky became a guide for many Russian monasteries. One could call him a leader in the monastic economy of Russia. And not only the monastic one.
Joseph's contemporary was another remarkable monk, Nil of Sorsky. His teaching was called non-covetousness. Many believed that the Nile called on the monks to renounce everything worldly, including housekeeping, and focus on prayer. And in this way the venerable Joseph and Nile were opposed to each other. And their followers were called “Josephites” and “non-possessors.”
But this opposition now seems artificial. Both of them - Joseph and Neil - are glorified by our Church as saints. Their teachings complement each other. Prayer is not a hindrance to a successful business. But “acquisitive” and “successful businessman” are not synonymous at all.
By the way, Joseph Volotsky himself highly valued the spiritual experience of Nil Sorsky, even sending his students to him to study the experience of inner prayer.
And yet, it is Joseph, with the patriarchal blessing, who will now take care of our business.

Troparion of St. Joseph

Like the fertilization of the fasters/ and the beauty of the fathers,/ the giver of mercy,/ the reasoning of the lamp,/ all the faithful, having come together, we will praise/ the meekness of the teacher/ and the shamer of heresies,/ the wise Joseph,/ the Russian star,/ praying to the Lord// to have mercy on our souls.
Prayer to St. Joseph of Volotsk
O blessed and ever-glorious Father Joseph! Leading your great boldness to God and resorting to your firm intercession, in contrition of heart we pray to you: illumine us with the light of the grace given to you and with your prayers help us to pass through the stormy sea of this life serenely and to reach the haven of salvation without blemish: enslave us to vain things, and love sin, and if weakness arises from the evils that have befallen us, to whom shall we resort if not to you, who showed the inexhaustible wealth of mercy in your earthly life? We believe that even after your departure you acquired the greatest gift of showing mercy to those in need. Therefore, as we now fall before your celibate icon, we tenderly ask you, holy saint of God: having been tempted yourself, help us who are tempted; by fasting and vigil, trample down the demonic power, and protect us from enemy attacks; nourished by the hunger of the perishing, and ask us from the Lord for an abundance of the fruits of the earth and all that is necessary for salvation; Having put to shame heretical wisdom, protect the Holy Church from heresies and schisms and confusion with your prayers: let us all think in the same way, with one heart glorifying the Holy, Consubstantial, Life-giving and Indivisible Trinity, the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, for all ages. Amen.

The everlasting psalter

The indefatigable Psalter is read not only about health, but also about peace. Since ancient times, ordering a commemoration on the Everlasting Psalter has been considered a great alms for a departed soul.

It is also good to order the Indestructible Psalter for yourself, you will clearly feel the support. And one more important point, but far from the least important,
There is eternal remembrance on the Indestructible Psalter. It seems expensive, but the result is more than millions of times more than the money spent. If this is still not possible, then you can order for a shorter period. It's also good to read for yourself.

Kontakion of St. Joseph

voice 8
Life of unrest, and worldly rebellion,/ and passionate leaping at nothing, imputing it to nothing,/ you appeared as a deserted citizen,/ having been a mentor to many, O Reverend Joseph,/ a colleague of monks and a faithful prayer book, a guardian of purity,// pray to Christ God for the salvation of our souls.

Holy Great Martyr John of Sochava

They pray to the saint for prosperity in trade

The birthplace of the Holy Great Martyr John the New was the famous city of Trebizond, located near the border with Assyria and Armenia. Located on the Black Sea coast, it served at that time as a convenient port and trade center. The main occupations of its inhabitants were navigation, fishing and trade. John was also engaged in trade.

One day he had to sail on a foreign ship whose captain was a fryag, a man of non-Orthodox faith. Seeing John’s virtuous and immaculate life, his prayer, fasting, and mercy towards those in need on the ship or those who were sick, the captain of the ship was indignant. He entered into fierce disputes with John about faith.

John, as a very wise and skilled man in the book business, always defeated the friag in these disputes, and he was very angry with John and in the end planned the following against him. When the ship landed on the shore near the city of Belgrade, the shipowner went to the mayor and said: “Chief! A husband came with me on the ship, who wants to renounce his faith and join yours. If you quickly lead him to another faith, there will be great glory for you, since this man is very skilled in speech and noble in Trebizond.”

The ruler of the city was delighted, ordered John to be brought to him and said: “I heard that you want to convert to our faith. Blaspheme the Christian faith publicly before the assembly. Stand with us and make a sacrifice to our sun god."

John replied: “You are lying, O chief! I did not say that I wanted to renounce my Christ. This is the intention of the enemy of truth, your father, Satan! I will not bow to the sun, I will not make a sacrifice to the heavenly body created by the Lord, I will not renounce Christ, my savior.”

Then the governor ordered the soldiers to tear off the martyr’s clothes and, placing many sticks in front of him, said: “Either renounce your faith, or I will give you over to the cruelest torment and death.”

John replied: “Beat with rods, burn with fire, drown in water or cut with a sword - I am ready to joyfully accept everything for the sake of love for Christ.

The torturer ordered to beat John, and the soldiers beat him with rods so much that everything around him was stained with blood, they tied him with chains and threw him into prison.

The next morning, the tormentor again urged John to renounce his faith and, without waiting for this, he ordered to torture him again. When the soldiers who were with him were exhausted, the mayor ordered John to be tied to the tail of a fierce horse. One of the soldiers mounted a horse and drove him through the streets, dragging the martyr along the ground. Crowds of Jews threw stones at him, and one of them overtook the martyr and cut off his head with a sword.

Thus Saint John ended his suffering feat. His body lay unburied, and at night a miracle happened: lamps burned brightly over the body, and three luminous men sang sacred chants, and a pillar of fire was visible over the holy relics of the martyr. One Jew thought that it was the Christian priests who came to give Saint John burial.

He wanted to shoot an arrow at one of them, but it stuck to his fingers and the Jew could not shoot the arrow and stayed like that until dawn. In the morning he told the people who came here what he had seen. And then his arms straightened and he freed himself from the bow. Having learned about what happened at night, the mayor was frightened and ordered the Christians to bury the body of the martyr at their church.

After some time, the fryag who betrayed John to torture. repented of his action and decided to steal the body of the saint. He and his comrades came at night to the tomb of the martyr. But at this time Saint John appeared in a dream to the presbyter of the church where he was buried, and said: “Get up and quickly go to the church, for they want to steal me.”

The presbyter immediately got up and went to the burial place, where he found the coffin unearthed and open, and the body of the saint was about to be taken away.

Having called the pious people, he told them about what had happened, and everyone glorified God, who glorifies His Saints. Taking the relics of the holy martyr, they brought them into the church and placed them on the altar near the Holy Throne. They stayed there for more than 70 years.

Trading conspiracies to profitably sell a house, apartment or car

We've all had situations where we experienced difficulties related to trading. It often happens that a bad period comes and our business suffers from the lack of clients.

Buyers simply do not come to us, and stubbornly buy similar products from competitors, bypassing our store or outlet.

Or it happens that you urgently need to sell a property or a car, but there are no buyers, and the matter does not move for a long time. All this happens because your business could be jinxed by envious people and ill-wishers.

To prevent this from happening, you can attract success in business and collect good revenue with the help of ancient conspiracies.

CONSPIRACY for the quick sale of an apartment or car

For this ritual, you need to take a few grains of wheat and place them early in the morning near the threshold of the house you are selling or near the car that you want to sell soon.

I will scatter a few grains and say goodbye to my property. Buyers will be found sooner, I will become happy faster. I call you, my merchant, come and buy my goods. Key, lock, tongue. Amen.

After this, you need to collect the grains and bury them next to the object of sale, and in a few days the transaction will take place.

Another conspiracy to sell and protect real estate

This ritual must be used at least ten days before the upcoming transaction. He suggests turning for help to the ancient patron of the house - the brownie. To perform the ceremony, you need to stand in the middle of the room in the house you want to sell and quietly whisper to yourself:

Old house-elf, you are mighty and great, help me sell my house, find rich and good clients and buyers! True.

Then you need to spit over your left shoulder three times, quietly leave and close the doors.

How to do it right read prayers for sale

It is important to remember that the words of prayers to the Patron Saints must be pronounced with sincere faith and hope for their help. You should not start prayer while in a bad mood, or after a quarrel with others.

Before the ceremony begins, you need to light a candle and put your thoughts in order.

The text of the prayer itself must be read clearly and distinctly, and one must not think about extraneous things that are not related to the matter at hand. Only in this case will your requests be heard by the Holy Saints and the Lord, and only then will you receive quick help from them, and your business will flourish and multiply.

Each of us puts our own meaning and meaning into the concept of wealth and poverty. Each of us has our own money problems. But none of us wants to find ourselves below the poverty line, to experience all the horror of the question “What will my children eat tomorrow?”

Read these prayers so that you will overcome any financial problems and so that you always have the necessary financial minimum, which would allow you to live without fear for tomorrow.
The prayers given in this article will help Orthodox entrepreneurs (as well as those involved in trade) to improve their trading affairs.

Pray diligently, holy martyr, may Christ God bless the power, may He establish in His holy Orthodox Church the living spirit of right faith and piety, so that all its members, clean from wisdom and superstition, worship Him in spirit and truth and diligently care about keeping His commandments, May we all live in peace and piety in this present world and achieve blessed eternal life in heaven, by the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, to Him belongs all glory, honor and power, together with the Father and the Holy Spirit, now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen.

We pray to Thee, Thy servants, who worship today in Thy Divine temple and the race of holy relics; Be merciful as we are, those who are far away and call upon Thy help and Thy martyr's suffering with praises. Ask us all from the Most Merciful Lord God and our Savior Jesus Christ for forgiveness and remission of the sins we have committed to this day and hour. Keep us unharmed from all the wiles of the evil one and protect our life from all evils of soul and body; always, now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen.
