Damage, like the evil eye, has frightened people since ancient times. In ancient times, people tried to protect themselves and loved ones, as well as their property from the evil eye and witchcraft with the help of various charms, whisperings, conspiracies and other divination. But with the advent of the Christian faith in Russia, prayer replaced many of the folk customs. Of course, protection from evil influences also became the Lord's concern.
How long ago did such prayers appear?
Probably, the first prayer of Jesus Christ for deliverance from corruption appeared at the same time as faith in the Lord itself. Corruption and the evil eye are those things that people have always believed in and in all countries. These superstitions explained many phenomena, the nature of which could not be understood in the old days.
For example, the sudden death of livestock or the illness of a child was incomprehensible, as was the sudden outward dizziness of formerly beautiful girls and much more. Majoritysimilar cases in the modern world are explained by doctors. Sudden diseases are caused by viruses, worms or other pathogenic microorganisms. The sudden death of livestock can be caused by an infection that the animals contracted at a watering hole.
There are many such examples, but nevertheless people continue to believe in the existence of the evil eye or damage. Of course, the best protection against these phenomena for most believers is the prayer of Jesus Christ for deliverance from corruption.
How effective are these prayers?
The effectiveness of such prayers, as well as other appeals to the Lord, directly depends on the person's faith. In the event that a person absolutely, completely and unconditionally believes both in the power of the Lord himself and in the existence of corruption, then, of course, prayer will protect and save him.
According to one of the early Christian legends, the prayer of Jesus Christ for deliverance from corruption, with which He turned to the Heavenly Creator, delivered the sufferer from epilepsy. There are quite a lot of similar legends relating to the early period of Christianity, to the times of its formation. Not all of them are connected with Jesus himself. Many legends tell about the conversion of the first Christians with prayers of this kind to the apostles and the Mother of God. There are stories telling about how the early Christian saints, miracle workers and martyrs were also delivered from the evil eye. But for centuries, believers have considered the prayer of Jesus Christ for deliverance from corruption to be the most effective way to deliver and protect from all kinds of witchcraft.
How to pray?
Often, people are convinced that in order to turn to God with a request for deliverance from witchcraft or simply the consequences of someone's unkind attitude, you need to read memorized texts, usually full of not entirely clear and outdated words.
Meanwhile, the prayer to Jesus for deliverance from corruption is no different from other requests with which the afflicted turn to the Lord. This means that the only requirements for the text of the prayer are the presence of a deep and sincere faith in the power of the Lord, unconditional hope in Jesus and, of course, sincerity and purity of thoughts.
It doesn't matter what words the prayer says. Prayer is not a spell, its power is not in a set of certain words or expressions, but in the faith of the speaker.
Are there any differences in such prayers?
Traditionally, such appeals to the Lord are of two types. But they are separated not in connection with a kind of negative magical influence, but in accordance with the needs of the one praying.
This means that, as they said in the old days, a prayer from the evil eye to Jesus Christ can be:
- about protection and preservation;
- about deliverance.
Of course, in the first case we are talking about preventing the induction of damage, and in the second about getting rid of the already imposed divination.
How to pray for protection?
The options for what a prayer to Jesus Christ from corruption and the evil eye, designed to protect and protect a believer and his loved ones, could be, is incrediblea lot of. Almost every village or other settlement has developed its own versions of such texts. Often such prayers were also family, tribal. That is, they were passed down in the same genus for generations. As a rule, in Russia this was typical for representatives of the merchant class.
Here is an example of such a prayer:
“O Lord, all-merciful, hear me, thy servant (name). Do not leave me and my family without protection from evil people whose souls are in the bosom of darkness. Do not allow, Lord, illnesses and sorrows, the loss of prosperity and well-being in my house. I trust in your strength, Lord, and I pray to protect my soul. Do not let us lose shelter and be deprived of food. Protect and save from human envy, bad rumor and slander, malice and cunning. Save from the wiles of the evil one, both now and henceforth. Amen.”
In the event that a believer is afraid of damage in something specific, for example, he is afraid that competitors will jinx their luck in trade or neighbors will envy the he alth of children or family relationships, then this is what should be mentioned in prayer.
How to pray for deliverance?
Prayer from corruption to the Lord Jesus Christ, like any other request to God, must come from a pure heart. This means that there should be nothing hidden or evil in the thoughts of the one who prays.
Here is an example of such a prayer:
“Lord Jesus, help me, your servant (name), get rid of nausea. Do not leave, Lord, in a difficult hour, deliver me from a dashing misfortune and remove the evil eye from me. Cleanse my body and soul from … (listing of existing problems inhe alth). Deliver my house from … (enumeration of household problems, various troubles and other everyday hardships). Guide me on the true path and do not let evil people interfere with your servant (name). Cleanse, Lord, the fate of my relatives from adversity (a list of troubles that have happened, service problems and other incomprehensible and inexplicable incidents). Do not give, Lord, the evil one and his servants power over my life. Amen.”
Before you pray to the Lord to get rid of the consequences of someone's divination, you should make sure that the evil eye or damage really takes place. That is, a series of problems and troubles, illnesses or other incidents should not have obvious causes or simple explanations. In addition to the prayer itself, you also need to put a candle in front of the image in the temple - this is traditionally done when you think about the presence of someone's bad influence.
