Prayer for the journey so that nothing happens to you. Amulet from troubles and misfortunes

Separation from those people who are dear to you is always a cause for concern. Therefore, it is quite understandable to want to take care of loved ones who are now far away or are going on a long journey.

Seeking help from higher powers in this matter is quite natural. A prayer read from the bottom of your heart and sincerely will become a reliable amulet for the person you value and wish well.

The meaning of a talisman prayer

It has long been believed that a man who left his native home, becomes vulnerable. You can explain this from an everyday point of view (they say, a new environment makes you nervous and in such a state you can make a number of erroneous actions), or you can turn to esotericism (the connection with the Family is lost, the protection of the family hearth is weakened).

Be that as it may, a person who sets out on a long journey could use some support - for example, a protective prayer:

he can read such a prayer himself on that day, when you have to go on a long journey;
Maybe one of your close people can pray for the well-being of the wanderer.

There are several options for such a prayer-amulet. Some of them are so ancient that it becomes clear: they have come to us from the depths of centuries, since the time when Rus' professed paganism. In such protective conspiracies, the expression “keep me from daddy!” is used. (meaning “forbid, save me from the enemy, from the villain”).

IN Christian tradition The patron saint of travelers is Saint Nicholas the Wonderworker, among Catholics - St. Christopher.

In front of the icon of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker they pray for a safe journey, for a safe journey, for a peaceful return home.

It is also accepted in the Christian tradition give the traveler the image of a saint who patronizes him.

Prayer-amulet

If you are going on a long journey, then you can read the following prayer-amulet: “I step beyond the threshold of my house, I call my guardian angel with me. I have a long way to go, in which an angel will protect me, protect me from troubles with his wings. Amen".

This prayer is read before leaving the house and going on the road.

Another protective prayer sounds like this: “By the will of the Lord I begin my path. I, the servant of God (state your name), must keep the long journey, and sign myself with the sign of the cross along the way. Amen".

In our culture traditions of Christianity and paganism coexist. One such example is the custom of sitting on the path. The Slavs did this in ancient times to deceive evil spirits. They believed that evil spirits were lurking behind the threshold of a person’s house.

During the ritual "sit down on the path", you can pray, mentally wish yourself and your loved ones a calm, prosperous journey.

Prayer-amulet for a son

In the parent's heart there lives concern for the children, even if the children have already grown up and taken their first independent steps in this life. You can pray to the Most Holy Theotokos for the well-being of your son, who is setting off on a long journey. " Holy Virgin Maria, protect my child on a long journey. For me, the mother, to wait for him, for my son to follow the right path.”

The protective prayer can be read not only on the day of your son’s departure from his home, but also on the day of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker - December 19. It is believed that the prayer read on this day gives the traveler protection for long time , protects him from adversity and dangerous encounters.

When seeing off your son from his father’s house, you can read the following prayer after him: “I carried the child under my heart for nine months, then I taught him to walk. My son has grown up big, and he has a long journey ahead of him. This path was given to him to walk calmly, don't forget the way home. The guardian angel walks ahead of him and gives protection. Amen".

For my daughter

A prayer-amulet for a daughter can be used in different situations, but it has one purpose - to protect from troubles, evil people, and misfortunes.

Blood connection, blood ties– these are not just concepts that have come to us from time immemorial. These are the invisible threads that connect loved ones. It’s good if the prayer-amulet for the traveler is read by someone from the older generation on the female side - mother, aunt, grandmother. The prayer can be read directly on the day of departure or the day before.

“Lord Almighty, I ask You for help and protection. God's servant (name) must keep a long journey, protect her from evil enemies, bad words and deeds. Amen".

There is another prayer that a mother reads after her daughter sets off on a long journey:

« Guardian angel overshadows the path of my daughter, saves her from troubles. She must be on a long journey, walking along a smooth path, a smooth road is spreading under her feet. I should be in my house, praying for her well-being. Lord Almighty, hear my mother’s prayer, save and preserve my child by Your mercy.”

For a car

In our age of speed and high technology the car is a source of increased danger. Therefore, it is logical that people want to protect themselves from vehicle-related troubles through prayer.

There are several ways to protect your car:

read a prayer before the road;
keep a talisman in the car;
bless the car.

When setting out on a journey by car, you can read the following prayer: “Forty forty roads I will travel, without knowing grief and troubles. By the will of the Lord, I should follow the path. I am out of danger while driving, I am under the protection of the Lord. Amen".

And, of course, relying on protection higher powers, we must not forget about prudence. Our people have a wise proverb on this matter: “God protects the careful.”

Light a lamp, if you have the priest’s permission to do so, and, slowly, begin to pray, saying word by word, making the sign of the cross.

Parable “About Silent Prayer”

Prayer has enormous power, but only when it is sincere, when at the moment of prayer a person is completely immersed in the world of God, forgetting about worldly affairs. To confirm this, I would like to tell you a small legend about silent prayer:

One elder thought about why so many people go to church, pray, but their lives remain the same. One day, in such thoughts, he fell asleep and dreamed of an Angel who lifted him high above the ground. And only quiet gentle sounds were heard there.

“These are Orthodox prayers, the prayers of people who, forgetting about worldly affairs, selflessly pray to God. The rest of the prayers are not heard here” -

Peter and Fevronia

If you have any questions or need help with the current life situation, you can consult our experts.

Every time I go on the road I read a prayer. Quietly so that no one hears. And God protects me. My wife also put a prayer in my wallet, so I believe that everything will definitely be fine. Everything will go smoothly and I will get there quietly and calmly!

Thank you for these prayers! I rewrote it for my husband. I’ll put the documents in his wallet, I’m sure they will save him from trouble. I am always very worried about him driving. Especially when he goes somewhere far away. At such moments, I really don’t find a place for myself; I can’t calm down until I return home. Now I will be much calmer, knowing that my loved one is protected by prayers.

Conspiracy for a successful journey and safe return
Oh, how the falcon flies out of the nest, a long journey awaits him: he will fly over flowing waters, he will fly over dense forests, he will fly over sharp cliffs.

Let my amulet protect him on the way, so as not to drink bitter water, so as not to get lost in a strange forest, so as not to break on sharp cliffs.

Let the red sun help him, so that the path is clear, let the gentle moon help him and be kind to him like a mother, let the violent winds help him, let them not rage, just whistle, so that his wings are fast, so that the long journey is shortened and they turned towards their native nest.
So that the nest does not stand empty, so that the orphaned family does not suffer.

Spells and amulets for the road
Crossing and blessing,
I'll go out of the house and out the gate
In the direction where the hunt is.
I won’t go astray from the path,
And I won’t face trouble.
I will avoid evil
And I will find goodness everywhere.
I won’t stumble, I won’t hurt myself,
I will return to the house with luck.

This charm charm especially clearly characterizes the strategy, tactics and operational management for safe movement.

“Where to hunt” is the purpose of the trip.
“I won’t go astray” - knowing the route.
“And I won’t face trouble” - understand the collision in the literal sense.
“I will avoid evil” - respect for yourself and others on the road.

All these prayers for drivers have been around for several centuries. If they were passed down from generation to generation, it means they helped our ancestors. Let's hope that they will help us and our children!

Previously, almost every person had his own confessor. Before leaving, the believer went to him and talked about his intention to set off. The confessor blessed him on the road, and the Christian knew that now he would have someone to pray for his soul while he was on his way.

Of course it's hard to imagine modern man who has a confessor (although, of course, there are such), and even more so, who thinks about someone’s blessing on his path. In the old days, people didn’t really travel or travel around the world, but in our time, transport systems are so well developed that we don’t even think about the difficulties of getting to the other hemisphere.

But, nevertheless, no matter how modern we are, it is necessary to prepare by reading on the road, and also not to forget to ask God for help and protection all the time while we are on the road.

Now we will look at what prayers should be read on good road, and also take a look at measures that will provide us with additional protection.

Prayers on the way

Usually, reading prayers on the road also gives you strength, because when you read a prayer, you remember that God is protecting you. The best prayer for a long journey is a prayer to Nicholas the Wonderworker, because he is the patron saint of wanderers.

Text of the prayer:

“Oh Saint Nicholas of Christ! Hear us, sinful servants of God (names), praying to you, and pray for us, unworthy, our Creator and Master, make our God merciful to us in this life and in the future, so that he does not reward us according to our deeds, but according to his own He will reward us with goodness. Deliver us, saints of Christ, from the evils that come upon us, and tame the waves, passions and troubles that rise against us, so that for the sake of your holy prayers the attack will not overwhelm us and we will not wallow in the abyss of sin and in the mud of our passions. Pray to Saint Nicholas, Christ our God, that he may grant us a peaceful life and remission of sins, and salvation and great mercy for our souls, now and ever, and unto ages of ages.”

However, not everyone will find it easy to remember full text this prayer on the way. There's a little trick here. There is one short prayer, which can be used to address any saint, the main thing is to substitute his name:

“Pray to God for me, holy servant of God (Nicholas in our case), as I diligently resort to you, your quick helper and prayer book for my soul.”

Driver's Prayer

If you are a driver, or your work involves constant travel or long roads, you should definitely acquire some kind of driver’s prayer for the road.

First of all, say the following prayer to your car:

“There is an island on the sea, on the ocean. There is a damp oak tree on the island. In that iron oak there is an iron man. You can’t give that iron man something to drink, you can’t feed him anything, you can’t break him in two, You can't cut it into three. He doesn’t beat, doesn’t crumple, doesn’t prick, the Mother of God prays for him, grieves for him, suffers, and reads the security certificate for him. Honor, Mother of God, about me too, God's servant(Name). In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Now, forever and forever. Amen".

And along the way, read a prayer against accidents on the road:

“Lord, God, help! Protect me and protect me: from bruises, mutilation, broken bones, from deformity, muscle rupture, from terrible wounds and scarlet blood. Protect my body from the burns of fire. Save, save, protect me. Be my words strong and sculpted. In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen".

In principle, a Christian should behave on the road in the same way as in life. After all, life for a believer is a continuous road. On the way, you cannot impose your point of view on your fellow travelers, you cannot chat in vain, and it is advisable to have an image of St. Nicholas with you.

There are events in our lives that break out of the usual and seem something new and, at times, a little dangerous. This category of events often includes various trips, travel and long journeys. For some people, such an event will be ordinary, for others it will be stressful, for some it will be an exciting adventure. But there is something that won't stop any of them. This - additional protection. Prayer for the road can be used in the most different situations and a variety of people.

A distinctive feature of magical spells and prayers for the road is that they can be performed not only for yourself. You can also read a prayer for the journey for a loved one or your relative.

We will talk more about who can perform such rituals below:

Prayer for yourself
If you want to protect yourself from various kinds of problems on the road, you can read a special prayer aimed at protecting yourself. It will be great solution for those who are not used to relying on luck, but like to do everything for sure.

Prayer for a loved one
In this case, you can read magic words on a person who goes on a journey. This should usually be done by the mother, aunt, godmother, wife or daughter of a loved one.

Both the first and second options are considered very effective. They help a person pass all the tests on the road with dignity and complete the journey safely.

If you have a short-term trip, a long journey or a move, then a prayer read every day while you are on the road will do.

This prayer is usually read on the road or journey early in the morning. By early morning we mean before eight in the morning.

Please note that the words are read by the traveler himself.

“Lord Almighty, Our God, I turn to you for support!
I ask You for help, I pray for Your condescension!
My journey is difficult, there are many obstacles on my way:
People are bad, thoughts are crappy, problems are urgent!
Save me, save me, guide me on the right path
And help me not to leave it. Make it so that my dear
It was smooth and even, problems and misfortunes were bypassed.
So that this is how I set out on the road, and this is how I returned!
I trust in Your help, I call for your support!
I glorify Your name!
Amen!".

The words of the travel prayer are repeated three times. You need to read it in a half-whisper, with your eyes closed, having learned it by heart. And, of course, you need to believe in magical help and in its effectiveness.

When someone in the family has a long journey ahead of them, you can perform a ritual for this person for his well-being.

It is done the night before the journey. The loved one to whom the prayer is directed should already be asleep.

You need, while in the room with him, to read the magic words:

“I direct my prayer to the Lord God!
I ask for help and support for my loved one!
He has a long road ahead, I ask for his peace and well-being.
Lord, do not leave him in trouble, take people with unclean thoughts away from him,
Worry about his health and peace of mind,
So that the road is easy, so that time passes unnoticed!
I’m not asking for myself, but for God’s servant (name),
Don't leave him, don't turn away, support him!
Amen!".

This prayer is only suitable for baptized people. You need to read it seven times, after which the ritual is considered completed and you can go to bed. Believe in the help of magic - and your loved one will be under its protection.

Among all the helpers, there is one who always helps travelers and wanderers - Nicholas the Wonderworker.

By directing your prayers to him, you will find in him a reliable patron and helper.

“Oh, Saint Nicholas, hear us (names of travelers),
And pray to the Lord God for us, that He may be merciful to us,
He did not repay our deeds, but was lenient.
Deliver us from misfortunes and sorrows along the way,
Let me not get bogged down in the abyss of sin.
Pray for us, Nicholas, for a peaceful life, for salvation, for our souls!
Amen!".

The magic words are repeated only once, but you need to read the prayer from time to time if you are on the road for quite a long time.

Also an excellent option would be the image of Nicholas, which should always be kept with you. You need to take out the icon when the prayer is being read. In addition, it must be treated carefully and respectfully. After all, this attitude may determine whether he will help you or not.

In any case, on the road, in order for everything to be fine, you should behave the same way as in ordinary life. Our whole life is a road, so try to walk it with dignity, and God will help you with this.
