Despite the fact that we have been living in the twenty-first century for the fifteenth year, the remnants of the distant past are still quite relevant. A modern person who goes to work with a laptop and joyfully welcomes all computer technologies, still shies away from a black cat and a woman with empty buckets, rejoices when he sees a cute white spider and, of course, believes that there is some mysterious and sinister force, causing harm, which in everyday life is called damage.
Increasingly, ads come across on the Internet and newspapers that say that a "hereditary sorceress" will easily save the sufferer from damage and the evil eye … But the church is not idle either, and, fortunately, after many years of stagnation, its doors open to everyone. It remains only to figure out if there are Orthodox prayers from the evil eye and corruption?
What is the evil eye and corruption?
The name of Father German Chesnokov is widely known in the Orthodox world. This gray-bearded old man with a straight posture and a strict piercing gaze is called the last exorcist, an implacable opponent of the enemy of the family.human. Father Herman has a lot of saved souls on his account, and he believes that most of those who turn to him for help suffer precisely because they used the services of "grandmothers". Unfortunately, those who call themselves hereditary magicians and psychics are often ordinary charlatans, but there are also those who, having icons at home, and sincerely believing that for energy "treatment" they use exclusively Orthodox prayers from the evil eye and damage, they do not turn to God for help at all …
Miracles of Hieromartyr Cyprian
Many people are sure that St. Cyprian is the only one to whom Orthodox prayers are dedicated from the evil eye and corruption. What kind of saint was that?
"We often believe what the newspapers say, but we don't believe what the Bible says," a wise man once said. You can understand what repels skeptics. The miracles of the saints, Christ himself, the apostles are presented to us in the form of epic epics, legends, but the most important thing in them is not the fact of miraculous healing or resurrection, but something else.
Saint Cyprian was, as they would say now, an intelligent man. Brought up in a noble family, having received a good education, having no need for anything, he went to comprehend the basics of sorcery on Mount Olympus, and succeeded a lot in this. Tradition claims that he was on "you" with the devil himself and brought a lot of trouble to people. But, as they say, the ways of the Lord are inscrutable. After a while, through the prayers of the maiden Justina, Cyprian receivedChristianity, and even merited a martyr's end. And during those years that he had left to live on earth, he performed many miracles, and converted many pagans and sorcerers to the holy faith. Now many texts of Orthodox prayers are addressed specifically to him.
The power of prayer
"Your faith has saved you" - such words the Lord said more than once to people who came to Him for help. In fact, if you dig a little deeper, there is no such thing as "Orthodox prayers from the evil eye and corruption". Many people, even those who are churched, for some reason treat prayers, as our ancestors once treated pagan spells - requests addressed to the gods. In order to understand the power of prayer, you need to … just believe that God hears us always and everywhere, and even a simple "Lord, have mercy!", spoken from the bottom of my heart, is worth thousands of all sorts of "grandmother's" amulets and talismans. In a word, you should not fall for such an attractive bait as Orthodox prayers for corruption. Because people involved in "treatment with prayers" are infinitely far from both Orthodoxy and extrasensory abilities. Every person can protect himself from the evil eye and damage, and for this it is not at all necessary to look for a suitable "grandmother". Father Herman sincerely believes that a person who has completely trusted himself to God is protected from the devil's machinations, even despite the fact that, as Seraphim of Sarov claimed, "the smallest demon can turn the globe over with one movement of its claw."
