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.
Most frequently asked question in church: 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 successful business no problem. 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 fasters/ and the beauty of the fathers,/ the giver of mercy,/ the wisdom of the lamp,/ all the faithful, having come together, let us praise/ the meekness of the teacher/ and the shamer of heresies,/ the wise Joseph,/ 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 feel the support. And one more the most important moment, 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 heavenly body created by the Lord, I will not deny 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 honest 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.
Various miracles began to be performed from the relics. Rumors of this reached the great governor of Moldova, Alexander. On the advice of Archbishop Joseph, he transferred the relics of the martyr to the capital of the Moldovan state of Sochav.
One of the surprisingly powerful prayers to the patron of trade - John of Sochavsky, rare prayer“trading man” and - a prayer to Spyridon of Trimifuntsky for help in solving material problems.
Prayer of a Trader
God, rich in mercy and bounty, in whose right hand are all the treasures of the world! By the arrangement of Your all-good Providence, I am destined to buy and sell earthly goods to those who need and need them. O All-Bountiful, Most Merciful God! Overshadow my labors and occupations with your blessing, make me rich in living faith in You, make me rich in every kind of generosity consistent with Your will, and grant me that profit that on earth consists of contentment with one’s condition, and in future life opens the doors of Your mercy! Yes, having been pardoned by your compassion, I glorify you, the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, forever and ever. Amen.
In matters of trade we often have to rely, as it seems to us, on luck and Lucky case, but in fact - to the will of the Lord. Prayerfully starting any new business, we ask the Lord to show us the right path and protect us from mistakes, we ask to send us meetings with honest people and protect us from devilish temptations and temptations, and often from envy and black witchcraft - after all, nothing irritates some people more than someone else's success.
As with any prayers for help, it should be remembered that the grace of the Lord will only abide in the deeds of those people who conduct them honestly, and caring for the good of their neighbors.

One of the Jewish shooters, who shot an arrow at the figures, was petrified and could only move after he told people in the morning about the miracle that had happened that night.

Not only John of Sochavsky is able to help traders, but an appeal to Seraphim of Sarov will also have a beneficial effect on trade. It is recommended to pray to Seraphim daily, also keeping a corresponding image at the point of sale. When addressing Seraphim of Sarov, you should first begin to say the main prayer, after which you need to read the addition.
Prayer to Seraphim of Sarov
“Oh, wonderful Father Seraphim, great miracle worker of Sarov, quick and obedient helper to all who come running to you! During the days of your earthly life, no one was tired of you and was inconsolable from your departure, but everyone was blessed by the vision of your face and the benevolent voice of your words. In addition, the gift of healings, the gift insights, the gift of healing for weak souls is abundant in you. When God called you from earthly labors to heavenly rest, your love ceased from us, and it is impossible to count your miracles, multiplying like the stars of heaven: for throughout the entire end of our earth you appeared to the people of God and granted them healing. In the same way, we cry out to you: Oh, most quiet and meek servant of God, daring prayer book to Him, reject no one who calls you! Offer up your powerful prayer for us to the Lord of hosts, may He grant us all that is beneficial in this life and all that is useful for spiritual salvation, may He protect us from the falls of sin and may He teach us true repentance, so that we can enter without stumbling into the Eternal Kingdom of Heaven, where you now you shine in everlasting glory, and there you sing with all the saints Life-giving Trinity forever and ever. Amen."
Great Martyr John of Sochava also listens to simple requests for help in trade, when a person turns to the Saint in his own words.
A very strong prayer for good luck in financial matters is said to St. Nicholas the Wonderworker. It is worth saying that Nicholas the Wonderworker is addressed much less often than other Saints, but it is he who can attract unprecedented luck to a person and his occupation.
Prayer to Nicholas the Wonderworker
“Oh, all-holy Nicholas, exceedingly pleasing servant of the Lord, our warm intercessor and quick helper everywhere in sorrows! Help me, a sinner and a sad person, in this life, beg the Lord God to grant me forgiveness of all my sins, Greatly sinned from my youth, in all my life, in deed, word, thought and with all my feelings; And at the end of my soul, help me, the accursed one, beg the Lord God, Creator of all creation, to deliver me from airy ordeals and eternal torment; May I always glorify the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, and your merciful intercession, now and ever, and forever and ever.

Video: Prayer for trading
Since ancient times, Orthodox Christians have known that the Lord, through His saints, helps in various everyday matters. By the providence of God, Saints Seraphim of Sarov and Saint John of Sochava help with their prayers in trade.
It should be realized that prayer for good trading is not an end in itself for a Christian. If a person sins and does not repent of his own sins, then no prayers will help. Prayer is not magic or a conspiracy. It is realized only through the spiritual Orthodox way of life. The key to a successful prayer request to the saints is our pious life.
It is traditionally accepted that all Orthodox prayers are performed in front of icons of saints. We recommend purchasing icons of St. Seraphim of Sarov and St. John of Sochava and placing them in your store or retail outlet. IN free time it is necessary to turn to the holy saints of God with repentance and faith.

Offer up your merciful prayer to the Lord of strength for us, May He grant us all that is beneficial in this life and all that is useful for spiritual salvation, May He protect us from the falls of sin and may He teach us true repentance, May we also enter without stumbling into the eternal Kingdom of Heaven, the Idea You are now in everlasting glory, And there you sing with all the saints the Life-Giving Trinity forever and ever. Amen.

Prayer 1
Holy Great Martyr John! Look down from the heavenly palace on those who require your help and do not reject our petitions, but, as our constant benefactor and intercessor, pray to Christ God, that He who loves mankind and is abundantly merciful will save us from every cruel situation: from cowardice, flood, fire, sword, invasions of foreigners and internecine warfare.

How to attract trade?
Many people who live in trading are looking for wonderful methods on how to increase profits. It is wonderful if in such cases we turn to Orthodoxy. It is very sad when people, for the sake of material enrichment, are ready to sell their own souls and lose eternal salvation.
The Lord Jesus Christ said that first of all it is necessary to think about the Kingdom of God, and everything else will follow.
And indeed it is. Believers, successful Orthodox businessmen are always present at services and make donations to the church, orphanages and low-income people. And the Lord returns them a hundredfold.
May love be in your hearts and may God bless your families and your worldly good deeds. Strong orthodox prayer trading is only possible for pious Christians.
