Grant me peace and faith in the successful outcome of my air travel. You alone are the Savior and Redeemer, I believe in your strength and hope for your blessings. I praise You and accept Your will. Amen".

Prayer for those traveling by car (car)

If you have a long journey by car, then you should take care of your own protection on a spiritual level. To do this, use a special prayer.

I turn to you, a servant of God (proper name) and ask the Most Holy Theotokos to pray for me, so that my road would be without obstacles and dangers. Save me, Lord, from accidental death on the road, protect me from all sorts of unpleasant surprises. I humbly accept Your will and believe in Your mercy.

Do not let me go through grief, do not let me bear the burden of responsibility for the dead and maimed people all my life because of my dishonesty and negligence on the road. Your Holy Name will be glorified for mercy in my prayers now and forever and ever. Amen!"

The text of the prayer in Russian

The following prayer appeal to St. Nicholas will become a reliable protection for a person traveling by car:

Prayer for Traveling Children

Before traveling, be sure to offer a protective prayer for traveling children. They are more vulnerable, so they face great dangers on the road. But thanks to strong prayer, the child will endure any move without problems.

Prayer might sound like this:

“I direct, the servant of God (proper name), my prayer to the Lord God. I ask for help and support on the road for my children. Let them easily endure the long road, and the time on the road will pass unnoticed for them. Lord, do not leave my children and do not punish them for my voluntary and involuntary sins, in which I sincerely repent. I praise you, O Lord, and I glorify your name. Amen".

The icon of the Mother of God "Hodegetria" became especially revered from the beginning of the 12th century. In translation, this name sounds like "Guide". Therefore, it is believed that this icon must be in the house of a person whose activities are related to travel. If you read a special prayer in front of this icon just before the road, then you can protect yourself from a variety of troubles while traveling. You also need to take a small icon with you on the road, it will become a protective amulet. Periodically, during stops along the way, one should pray to the Most Holy Theotokos for the grant of prosperity on the journey.

The prayer appeal sounds like this:

“Oh, the wonderful Queen of Heaven, the Most Holy Theotokos, the Mother of God, who gave our world a Savior. Hear my prayer, sinful and unworthy. With a sigh and tears in my eyes, I turn to you, the servant of God (proper name) with a heartfelt prayer. Deliver me from sorrow and sorrow in my journey, do not let the irreparable happen. Protect me on the road from all misfortunes and slander of enemies. Keep me safe on the road from evil and grant me the strength to safely end the journey. Ask the Lord to forgive my voluntary and involuntary sins, so that they do not become God's punishment for me. Beg your Son, the Most Holy Theotokos, to save us and give us hope for finding peace for the soul in the Kingdom of Heaven. Until the end of days I will exalt your holy name and glorify the deeds of God. Amen".

Prayer Book: prayers for wanderers and travelers

Prayers for help and protection while traveling are a very effective tool. They are a talisman and allow you to calm down and make the right decisions in extreme situations. Any prayer provides a channel of communication with our great Creator. Being in spiritual contact through prayer, a person gets the opportunity to strengthen his natural defenses.

How to read Orthodox prayers on the road

Prayers are usually read just before the trip. To do this, you need to retire and adjust accordingly. There should be no negativity in the soul, remember that you should go on any journey in a good mood. Each spoken phrase must be fully conscious. That is why it is better to pray before the road to the Lord God and other saints in Russian.

If spiritual prayer arises, then prayers can be offered for the traveler and on the way. As a rule, this is done during stops, for example, when traveling by car. You can pray for good luck and well-being on the road not only for yourself, but also for loved ones. But in any case, it is very important that the prayer appeal sound sincere.

What is the power and essence of prayer before setting off on a journey

Any prayer on the road, first of all, allows a person to calm down and remove unnecessary excitement from the soul. In the old days, before a long journey, a person came to his confessor and asked for blessings. After that, the Christian gained confidence that nothing would happen to him on the road, because prayers were offered for him.

The power of prayer is in a person's faith. A prayer appeal will be effective if you believe in that, then your words will be heard by the Higher powers, and they will definitely help you. You need to understand that the power of prayer before setting off on a journey lies in the fact that it creates energy protection and allows a person to push away dangers and troubles from himself, and therefore ensure safety on the road.

Prayers on the road charge a person with positive energy. And, as you know, a person with a positive attitude attracts all the best to himself and always repels the negative. On the road, this is very important, as you can reduce the risks of unpleasant situations.

Every believer begins his day with an appeal to the Almighty. Any work, any previous event is preceded by a request for help to God. They cry out to the Lord under any circumstances, including in grief. Life experience shows that without the will of the Lord there will be no luck, no happiness, no achievement, no prosperity on the road, including.

Leaving the house, you should find at least a few minutes to read the prayer on the road. To whom you should call for help in this situation, and what words to pronounce, we will talk in our article.

I deny you, Satan, your pride and service to you, and combine with you, Christ, in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen.

This prayer is read on the road Nicholas the Wonderworker. It is better if there is complete silence in the room in order to fully concentrate on the text. After the end of the prayer, kneel down and cross yourself three times.

Prayer to Nicholas the Wonderworker

“O St. Nicholas of Christ! Hear us, sinful servants of God (names), praying to you, and pray for us, unworthy, our Sovereign and Master, be merciful to us, create our God in this life and in the future, may he not repay us according to our deeds, but according to your own will give us goodness. Deliver us, saint of Christ, from the evils that are upon us, and tame the waves, passions and troubles that rise upon us, so that for the sake of your holy prayers we will not be attacked and we will not be mired in the abyss of sin and in the mud of our passions. Moth, Saint Nicholas, Christ our God, give us a peaceful life and the remission of sins, but salvation and great mercy to our souls, now and forever, and forever and ever.

If you are a driver and are going on a long journey, then the driver’s prayer will come in handy. Be sure to read these words to Nicholas the Wonderworker before each trip. It is to him that those who go on a trip most often turn for help.

Read these lines, pondering each word. In no case do not rush and do not say a prayer on the road in a hurry.

Short treatment

These words are also intended for Nicholas the Wonderworker. The prayer is short and concise. This will allow you to remember it faster and pronounce it at every opportunity.

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

In addition to prayers for the road, the driver should take with him the icon of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker. This will protect you from troubles, failures and accidents.

Petition to Jesus Christ before the trip

“Lord Jesus Christ our God, on the true and living path, travel your imaginary father Joseph and the Most Pure Virgin Mother to Egypt, and Luce and Cleopas traveled to Emmaus! And now we humbly pray to Thee, O Most Holy Master, and by Thy servant (name) travel by Thy grace. And, as if to Your servant Tobias, the guardian angel and mentor, send, preserving and delivering them from every evil situation of visible and invisible enemies, and instructing them to fulfill Your commandments, peacefully and safely, and soundly forwarding, and again whole and serenely returning; and give them all your good intention to your pleasing, safely fulfill it for your glory. Yours is more than to have mercy and save us, and we send glory to You with Your Father without beginning and with Your Most Holy and Good and Life-giving Spirit, now and ever and forever and ever. Amen"

These words are read thoughtfully and clearly. Just "drumming" the memorized text will not bring the desired result. It would be useful if the prayers on the road are manually copied by a close and beloved person (daughter, wife, son, mother). If it is quite difficult to memorize the text, then get yourself a prayer book in the temple. If this was not at hand, it’s not scary, you can turn to God in your own words. The main thing is that it be sincere.

The words of the proposed prayer help those traveling by train, plane, car, etc.

Appeal to the Holy Mother of God

“O my Most Holy Lady, the Virgin Mother of God, Hodegetria, patroness and hope of my salvation! Behold, on the path that is set before me, now I want to leave and for this time I entrust to You, my most merciful Mother, my soul and body, all my clever and material forces, entrusting everything to Your strong looking and Your all-powerful help. O good Companion and Protector of mine! I earnestly pray to Thee, that this path will not crawl, guide me on it, and direct it, All-Holy Hodegetria, as if You yourself weigh, to the glory of Your Son, my Lord Jesus Christ, be my helper in everything, especially in this far and on a difficult journey, keep me under Your sovereign protection from all troubles and sorrows that find, from enemies visible and invisible, and pray for me, my Lady, Your Son Christ our God, may His Angel be sent to help me, His peaceful, faithful mentor and guardian, yes as if of old he gave food to his servant Tobias Raphael, in every place and at all times keeping him on the way from all evil: so my way, having safely managed and preserved me by heavenly power, may it return me healthy, peaceful and whole to my dwelling to the glory of the name His Holy One, glorifying and blessing Him all the days of my life and magnifying You now and ever, and forever and ever. Amen"

This prayer for the road is pronounced slowly and clearly three times. The text of the petition can be placed in a conspicuous place in the car. It would be useful to place in front of you the icon of the Mother of God, Nicholas the Wonderworker and Jesus Christ and each time turn to them for help.

Request before sailing

“Vladyka Lord Jesus Christ, our God, who, together with His holy disciples and apostles, swam, calmed the stormy wind and calmed the waves on the sea with His command! Himself, Lord, and accompany us in navigation, calm down every stormy wind and be a Helper and Intercessor, for You are a Good God and loving people and we bring You praise, the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, now and forever and forever and ever. Amen"

A prayer for those traveling on a long voyage is read just before departure. Before entering the ship, you should cross yourself three times and ask the Lord for blessings (“God bless me”), and then proceed to the text itself. It should be read three times. After each utterance, it is necessary to repeatedly baptize and worship.

Request before departure

“Lord Jesus Christ, our God, command the elements and contain the whole handful, His deeps tremble and His stars are present. All creation serves You, all will listen, all will obey You. You can do everything: for this sake, you are all merciful, O Good Lord. So even now, O Master, accepting warm prayers of Your servants (name), bless their path and air procession, forbidding storms and nasty winds, and keeping the air lodia safe and sound. Saving and calm in the air, giving them a good intention and a good intention to those who made them merrily in health and in peace, if you please, return. You are the Savior and Redeemer and all the good heavenly and earthly Giver, and we send glory to You with Your Father without beginning and Your Most Holy and Good and Life-giving Spirit, now and ever and forever and ever. Amen"

Before you go on a flight, you should say a prayer three times on the road, cross yourself many times and bow after reading it. This will not only avoid accidents, but also calm down during the journey.

Prayer on the road in front of the icon of Jesus Christ

“God, the All-Good and All-Merciful, protect everyone with Your mercy and philanthropy, I humbly pray to Thee, through the intercession of the Theotokos and all the saints, save me, a sinner, and the people entrusted to me from sudden death and any misfortune, and help the unharmed to deliver each according to his need.

God Merciful! Deliver me from the evil spirit of recklessness, the unclean power of drunkenness, causing misfortunes and sudden death without repentance.

Vouchsafe me, Lord, with a clear conscience to live to a ripe old age without the burden of people killed and maimed by my negligence, and may Your Holy name be glorified, now and forever, and forever and ever. Amen"

This prayer for the road can be said during the entire trip at every opportunity. It would be useful to visit the temple the day before the trip and light a candle for the health of the traveler.

It's no secret that road traffic accidents are the number one cause of death. So that misfortune does not occur on the road, the driver's prayer is read. Good luck to you!

Believers must turn to God constantly: after waking up, before going to bed, before starting any business. There are also special prayers for travelers. This is a high-risk situation where people need God's special protection.

Who to pray for travelers

There are a number of saints in Orthodoxy whom it is customary to ask for protection before a trip.

Jesus Christ - the Savior should always be addressed first.
Saint Nicholas - at first sailors began to revere him, today all travelers pray to him for the preservation of their lives.
Guardian angel - each baptized person has a personal one.

You can also pray for travelers to the Mother of God, the patron saint (whose name was given at baptism).

When going on a trip, you should find time and pray in the temple for those who are going to travel. You can order a prayer service not only for yourself, but you can name as many names as you need. Such a special prayer is performed by a priest, it does not last long and ends with the sprinkling of holy water, and all participants also approach the holy crucifix. The church blessing ends with a parting word from the confessor. You can agree on any rite through the church shop.

How Nicholas the Wonderworker helps travelers

Nicholas the Wonderworker is well known to any believer. During his life, he managed to help many people and he himself more than once set off on a journey to restore justice and protect the offended. But in those days, travel was very long and very dangerous - wild animals, robbers, military enemies, bad weather - everything was against a person. Therefore, prayer has always been necessary for travelers.

Saint Nicholas never flew by plane, today before taking off you can briefly address him: “Saint Nicholas, pray to God for us!” - cross yourself, protect your child with the sign of the cross, and you can safely surrender into the hands of God. It is impossible to predict one's fate, but one can prepare for a meeting with the Creator. It is in our hands, if we work on ourselves daily, then fear will gradually disappear and only the joy of communion with God will remain.

A special prayer has already been compiled for those traveling by air, it can be found at the end of the material. Read it before takeoff. After a safe landing, be sure to express gratitude, at least briefly (“Glory to You, Lord!” - and cross yourself).

Indeed, the plane seems to be a very dangerous mode of transport, but all this is just an illusion. In fact, the usual minibus is many times more dangerous. According to statistics, much more often people die in car accidents, alas. Therefore, every time parting with someone, you need to pray for a person, wish him well and peace. Prayer for those traveling by car should be especially intensified.

Prayer for Travelers to Nicholas the Wonderworker - text

Oh, all-holy Nicholas, the servant of the most beautiful Lord, our warm intercessor, and everywhere in sorrow a quick helper! Help me a sinner and despondent in this present life, beg the Lord God to grant me the remission of all my sins, having sinned from my youth, in all my life, deed, word, thought and all my feelings; and at the end of my soul, help me the accursed, implore the Lord God, all creatures of the Sodetel, to deliver me air 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. Amen.

Prayer for Air Travelers

Lord Jesus Christ, our God, command the elements and contain the whole handful, His deeps tremble and His stars are present. All creation serves You, all will listen, all will obey You. You can do everything: for this sake, you are all merciful, O Good Lord.
So even now, Master, accepting warm prayers of Your servants (their names), bless their path and air procession, forbidding storms and contrary winds, and keeping the air lodia safe and sound. Saving and calm in the air, giving them the good intention and good intention to those who made them cheerfully in health and in peace, please return.
You are the Savior and Redeemer and all the good heavenly and earthly Giver, and we send glory to You with Your Father without beginning and Your Most Holy and Good and Life-giving Spirit, now and ever and forever and ever. Amen.

Who to pray before the road

Many are accustomed to driving every day, do not perceive the road as something dangerous. But it is always better to have the icon of the Savior before your eyes. She will remind you that before you start the engine, you should ask the blessing of the Lord. Then the usual business will succeed much easier.

If you have a long way to go, you should order a prayer service for those who want to travel by car. If the vehicle has not yet been consecrated, now is the time to do so. Prayer will help to overcome even a long distance without unwanted events.

Special prayers should be made for traveling children. They are more vulnerable than adults, they require increased attention on the road. Thanks to the prayer of loved ones, even a very small child can endure a long journey without problems. Be sure to tie a cross around the baby’s neck, take some holy water, prosphora with you.

Praying for those who are on the road is the sacred duty of every Christian.
