Live Help Prayer in Old Church Slavonic. Prayer "Living help" (90 psalm)

In this article you will find stories related to the 90th psalm “Alive in the help of the Most High”, as well as the text of the psalm itself, which was written by King David.

The ninetieth psalm is important in our spiritual life and is loved by many Orthodox Christians. The psalm is read when people need special protection: when they are scared, when they are in difficult situation and do not know how to cope with it without help from above. The 90th psalm contains great hope in God as the Defender and the understanding that God does not punish people for their misdeeds, but helps them. Some memorize the text of the psalm, someone carries a belt with the 90th psalm, someone writes the text in a notebook. It is important to understand that without firm faith, without an understanding of what King David's psalm says, none of this matters.

Alive in the help of the Most High, in the blood of the God of Heaven will settle, - this means that the one who lives, hoping in God, lives under the roof of Heaven, under the protection of the Lord. God spreads His Cover over the believer. God keeps man under a heavenly roof. How in home a believer feels himself in this world if he prays, reads the 90th psalm and turns to God as the Father and Protector.

The Lord says: Thou art my intercessor and my refuge, my God, and I trust in Him. As if Toy will deliver you from the catcher’s network, and from the rebellious word, His splash will overshadow you, and you hope under His wings - no matter what dangers lie in wait for a person, God can protect us from any of them. God covers us with His Hands, supports us, as parents support their baby under the arms. We are under the wing of the Lord, as a bird covers its chicks with its wings to protect them from danger.

Do not be afraid of the fear of the night, from the arrow flying in the days, from the things in the darkness of the transient, from the scum, and the demon of the afternoon. A thousand will fall from your country, and darkness at your right hand, but it will not come close to you, both look at your eyes, and see the reward of sinners. As you, Lord, my hope, the Most High have laid down your refuge, God turns with His mercy to each of us, if we turn to Him with sincere faith, tries to live according to the commandments of God. There are many sorrows and trials in a person's life, but for those who go through them with sincere hope in God, it is easier to endure them.

Evil will not come to you, and the wound will not approach your body, as if by His Angel a commandment about you, save you in all your ways. They will take you in their hands, but not when you stumble your foot on a stone, step on the asp and the basilisk, and cross the lion and the serpent. For I have trusted in Me, and I will deliver, and I will cover, and, as I know My name. He will call to Me, and I will hear him: I am with him in sorrow, I will destroy him, and I will glorify him, I will fulfill him with long days, and I will show him My salvation - confidence in God's help, that He will definitely hear us and come, helps us to cope with difficulties and sometimes shows real miracles. After all, everything that is not subject to man is subject to God. It is for this, in order to feel the support of the Lord, that the 90th psalm is usually read - Living in the help of the Most High.

Alive in the help of the Most High. How does prayer help people?

Alive in the help of the Most High

I have long been collecting and writing down stories related to the 90th psalm, the famous prayer “Alive in the help of the Most High ...” This prayer, written by the Israeli king David (XI-X centuries BC) on the occasion of the deliverance of his people from a three-day pestilence, some special fate exactly in Russia. Many of these stories are connected with the Great Patriotic War.

“In the fall of 1941, I was seven years old, my sister Sonechka was five. It so happened that we left for the evacuation to Aktyubinsk only in the spring of 1942, so we were in Moscow during the terrible autumn and winter of the first year of the war. My father Gushchin Andrei Fedotovich, despite his poor eyesight, volunteered for the militia. There he died. My mother Alexandra Filippovna, a doctor, spent all her time in the hospital, and Sonechka and I stayed with our grandmother, Natalya Timofeevna. Grandmother was from a peasant family, and moved to us in Moscow from the famine of the late thirties from the Bryansk region. My memories of the war are fragmentary. For some reason, I don’t remember how the war began, but I remember well the feeling of hunger, and how in the fall of 1941 I went with my grandmother to the fields to collect cabbage leaves. The fields were somewhere in the Sokol area. I remember very well the smell and taste of these leaves - we cleaned them of rot and ate them, frozen, and my grandmother cooked cabbage soup from them, very tasty.

I remember how all autumn they were talking about some Guderian: “Guderian approached Tula, Guderian creeps up to Moscow ...” For me, a child, this word “Guderian” for some reason was associated with some kind of huge snake - an asp, a basilisk, I I saw these in a book. I remember how once my grandmother and I were on business in the center, and suddenly it began to snow, and the snow was black. And a woman passing by, in a voice breaking into a squeal, wailed: “Lord, the end of the world has come!”

I remember how my grandmother, angry, firmly grabbing my hand, said: “No one knows the day or the hour. And even if an angel from heaven begins to announce the end of the world, let him be anathema.” Now I understand that these were words from the Gospel. We quickly returned home. On that day, I learned the 90th psalm “Alive in the help of the Most High ...” Maybe from malnutrition, my memory was bad in childhood, even the multiplication table was difficult for me, but I remembered the prayer quickly. Grandmother made Sonya and I repeat it until we learned it. Since then, we have been praying every evening. And one more thing: my grandmother strictly punished us so that we would not tell anyone about this. We went for cabbage leaves almost all autumn, but I remember how one day a neighbor said that Guderian came very close, he was in the Sokol metro area, right by our cabbage fields. That evening we prayed for a long time, grandmother, I think, all night - as I see her now, kneeling in front of the icon. And the night was frosty. And Guderian's technique stood up.

I, a child, had the feeling that this happened, because we - me, Sonechka and grandmother, were praying. “They will take you in their hands, but not when you stumble your foot on a stone, step on the asp and basilisk, and cross the lion and the serpent.” And my grandmother was so enlightened, joyful in the morning, I saw her like that only once, when her eldest son Valerian returned from exile, after the war. She told us that on this day, when Guderian stood near Moscow, there was a big holiday - Entry into the Temple Holy Mother of God. Then the 90th psalm helped me more than once. My grandmother passed away in my sleep in 1956, when I had already graduated from the institute. Of the five grandmother's sons, only Nikanor returned from the war.

“I was drafted into the ranks of the Red Army in December 1941. When I was leaving for the front, my mother gave me a sheet with the prayer “Alive in the help of the Most High” and ordered me to sew it into my tunic. I know that many soldiers had this prayer sewn up. Some in a tunic, some in the lining of an overcoat. It was also popularly called "Living Help" or even "Living Help", sometimes "Soldier's Help". They knew that she worked miracles - usually mothers were given a sheet with a prayer written by hand. I think she saved me more than once. Once, he brought shells on horseback, and the bombing began. I decided to take cover with the horses - there was free space under the shed near the house, but one of the officers standing there started shouting at me: “Where are you going with the shells! Turn back, turn back!" And as soon as I drove back, on a bare, uncovered place, as if in a house, a shell fell with a direct hit. No one was left alive ... Until the 44th, prayer was always with me, and then it was lost. We were taken to the bathhouse, and from lice all the clothes were collected in a boiling tank. I managed to answer the prayer, but when we were steaming, an attack began, and I lost the sheet. But this prayer, I believe, was already in my heart. When he was wounded in 1944, while he was conscious, he prayed. The doctor later told me that I was born in a shirt. “Evil will not come to you, and the wound will not approach your body, as if by His Angel a commandment about you, save you in all your ways.” Finished the war in Germany, on the Elbe. Came through Battle of Stalingrad, battle on Kursk Bulge, was wounded, but returned home to his mother alive, and even with military awards - isn’t it a miracle?

“I was born on February 4, 1942, in Moscow. My mother, Anastasia Ivanovna, died when I was not even a year old, she had a heart defect, she was twenty-two. Dad was taken to the front in August 1941, he died in 1944, and my grandfather Pavel Stepanovich and his sister raised me, I called her Aunt Raya. I have only two things left from my mother.

The photo where they are with their father is just on the day they met: young, cheerful, in love. It was April 1941. And another sheet with the prayer "Alive in the help of the Most High." The paper on which mother's hand a prayer was written, very unusual - thin, but strong, I have never seen anything like it. Similar to the paper money is printed on, but better. Where did mom get it from? A riddle… My aunt wrapped this sheet of prayer in a handkerchief and sewed it to my sleeveless jacket. When she washed it, she ripped off the handkerchief with a prayer, and then sewed it on again. When I grew up, my aunt made me learn the prayer by heart. I grew up in the yard, street, and my mother's prayer, I think, saved me more than once. Post-war children, we were very risky - we held grenades and cartridges, for example, I had a whole arsenal - it was considered chic, one kid from the yard died.

There were serious fights - with brass knuckles, knives, but nothing, God bless. Many guys, in fact not bad, were drawn into theft. And although I grew up without parents, I even graduated from the institute. Prayer kept me. “He who lives in the help of the Most High, will dwell in the blood of the God of heaven.” When I was already an adult, this half-decayed leaf hurt somewhere. I searched and searched and forgot about it. And one day, years later, he found himself - fell out of the book. And I put it in my pocket. On that day, I went on a business trip to Orel, the three of us were driving in a car, and an accident happened at night. My comrades died, but nothing to me.

I didn’t think before, but now, with age, when I myself have both children and five grandchildren, I often think about my mother at night. I think about what she felt then, in the autumn and winter in the first year of the war, in Moscow, what she thought when I was born. It turns out that she gave me life at the cost of her life” Leonid Petrovich Mozganov.

You will not be afraid of terrors in the night, of an arrow flying by day, of a plague that walks in darkness, of a pestilence that devastates at noon. A thousand will fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it will not come near you: you will only look with your eyes and see the retribution of the wicked. For you said, "The Lord is my hope"; You have chosen the Most High as your refuge; evil will not happen to you, and the plague will not come near your dwelling; for he will command his angels about you to guard you in all your ways: they will lift you up in their hands, lest you strike your foot against a stone; you step on an asp and a basilisk; you will trample on the lion and the dragon. “Because he loved Me, I will deliver him; I will protect him, because he knows my name. He will call to Me, and I will hear him; I am with him in sorrow; I will deliver him and glorify him; I will satisfy him with long life, and I will show him My salvation.”

More about the text of the prayer Living help or Psalm 90

The correct name of the sacred text is Psalm 90, which is spelled out in enough famous book Psalter. Often, prayer can be used by those who need God's strong help, who need to be shown the right path in a seemingly hopeless situation. Many call Psalm 90 a real talisman against all the troubles that can happen in life. If we compare Living Help with other prayers, then it can be put on a par with the well-known "Our Father" and "Our Lady, Virgin, rejoice."

In general, all prayers aimed at saving the soul are very important. And Psalm 90 is no exception. What is interesting about the text of the Living Help prayer, which is pronounced with an appeal to the Almighty?

It is said that Moses himself wrote the prayer. There is also a version that the author of the text is King David, who created the prayer around the 9th-10th century BC.
The uniqueness of this text is that it is used not only Orthodox people but also another religion - Judaism.
It is best to carry the text with a prayer with you, write it down somewhere and fold a sheet of paper several times so that you can read it at any convenient time, protecting yourself from any danger.
Many prefer to write the words "Living Aid" on a ribbon, tying it around their waist - this serves as a literal amulet.
Even in ancient times, doctors refused to treat some diseases that were difficult to cope with. Then, people resorted to prayer, which not only relieved pain, but also saved them from the most terrible diseases.
If everything goes awry, then prayer can attract good luck. True, you can not abuse the text. It is worth reading a prayer only if luck is really needed.
It will be good if the believer learns the text by heart. Psalm 90 is important to understand, to feel the whole meaning of strong prayer.
There is a certain time when reading a prayer is considered the right time to talk with the Lord God - 12 noon. In front of a person there should be 3 icons of the Savior Jesus Christ and the face of the Archangel Michael.
A translation of Psalm 90 has recently been made into modern Russian. The text is available to the believer now, although it was impossible to read it before.
For some, a prayer was literally sewn into the belt so that it was always next to the person.

How to read a prayer correctly

The main thing is the correct pronunciation of each word, there is no need to rush here. The intonation should be calm, and the voice should not be irritated and even. You can sit on your knees if the text is read in the presence of a sick person. In this case, it will be good if the reading person puts his hands on the place that hurts while reading.

To make the effect of prayer as powerful and strong as possible, you can pick up the Holy image of Jesus Christ. Another important rule is to say a prayer three times. After reading the Live Help for the first time, you need to pause a little, cross yourself three times and proceed to the second repetition.

If you follow this rule, then the effect of prayer to the Lord God will not keep you waiting. Also, when reading a sacred text, you should definitely wear pectoral cross- this maximally attracts the attention of the Lord to the believer. The priests say that it is worth believing in what a person says, since nothing will happen without faith in prayer. On the other hand, relying only on prayer is not worth it, it is just a text, the meaning of which cannot be touched. After reading Psalm 90, you need to think about how to cope with a hopeless situation, scroll through all the solutions in your head.

What should not be done when reading Psalm 90?

There are some principles that are still worth following, even though prayer is miraculous.

Prayers of Living Help are a real miracle that you can see with your own eyes. This is a text, after reading which there is grace in the soul. The text can be pronounced both at home in front of the icons, and in church with a candle. Do not forget that God helps everyone and everyone, you just need to turn to him.

You will not be afraid of terrors in the night, of an arrow flying by day, of a plague that walks in darkness, of a pestilence that devastates at noon. A thousand will fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but won't come close to you. Only you will look with your eyes and see the retribution of the wicked.

For you said, “The Lord is my hope; You have chosen the Most High as your refuge. Evil will not happen to you, and the plague will not come near your dwelling. For he will command his angels concerning you, to guard you in your ways. They will carry you in their hands, lest you strike your foot against a stone.

You will step on an asp and a basilisk; you will trample on the lion and the dragon. “Because he loved Me, I will deliver him; I will protect him, because he knows my name. He will call to Me, and I will hear him; I am with him in sorrow; I will deliver him, and I will glorify him; I will satisfy him with length of days, and I will show him my salvation.”

as if by His Angel I commanded about you, keep you in all your ways.

However, there is a lite version translated into Russian modern language, according to Orthodox church canons. The meaning of the translated text is perceived more clearly than the original source, which is why it is much easier to remember. It sounds like this:

He who lives under the shelter of the Most High under the shadow of the Almighty rests, says to the Lord: “My refuge and my protection, my God, in whom I trust!” He will deliver you from the snare of the catcher, from the deadly sore, with his feathers he will overshadow you, and under his wings you will be safe; a shield and a fence are His truth. You will not be afraid of terrors in the night, of an arrow flying by day, of a plague that walks in darkness, of a pestilence that devastates at noon. A thousand will fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it will not come near you: you will only look with your eyes and see the retribution of the wicked. For you said, "The Lord is my hope"; You have chosen the Most High as your refuge; evil will not happen to you, and the plague will not come near your dwelling; for he will command his angels about you to guard you in all your ways: they will lift you up in their hands, lest you strike your foot against a stone; you step on an asp and a basilisk; you will trample on the lion and the dragon. “Because he loved Me, I will deliver him; I will protect him, because he knows my name. He will call to Me, and I will hear him; I am with him in sorrow; I will deliver him and glorify him; I will satisfy him with long life, and I will show him My salvation.”

Gift of the king

The origin of the prayer from the Most High is not simple. Invented and written down by King David of Israel in the 11th-10th centuries. BC e. on the occasion of the deliverance of the country from pestilence.

The psalm has proven itself especially well against the manifestation of negative forces, their consequences, as well as influences on environment, disasters and misfortunes - enemies and intractable diseases. Because of this, the text of the prayer was embroidered on the belt, which the person then girded. In a modern church shop, you can now buy a similar product called an icon fold.

Practical skills of ancestors

Once upon a time, Christians used the old Slavonic methods of embroidery, transferring them to the Orthodox attributes of their own faith. Well, the experience is useful, and most importantly - correct, and the tradition has been going on for more than 1000 years. Why invent something new when something that has already proven itself works great?

However, the church has always had a different attitude to such things. On the one hand, pagan amulets, amulets, except for the pectoral cross, were banned. They were condemned by the official church authorities, but a mitigating circumstance - the essence of which, a talisman - is a prayer that allows it to exist in this form, bring invaluable benefit and relief to a believer.

Acts of the Most High

The people believed so much in the power of prayer to the Vyshnyam that they use it in almost all practical methods, including when removing damage, guided by the basic canonical material approved by the church.

A case from one's life

An interesting fact, told by eyewitnesses of the events that occurred during the Second World War: women - workers in a weaving factory - sewed psalm 90 into the waist part of the military uniform, and then sent the clothes to the front. Of course, this happened on the personal initiative of the weavers, because in the country of the Soviets Orthodox Church was banned.

Perhaps the actions of compassionate women saved many lives from death., since, for sure, a piece of paper sewn into an overcoat or tunic with the text of a prayer to the altar kept the owner from a stray bullet, because it is psalm 90 that is the most powerful defense in such cases.

Reading Rules

It is fair to say that the reading of certain psalms is suitable for certain occasions, creating a kind of prayer rule for the daily prayer service:

Grateful, providing support in any business;
Appeal for help to the almighty;
Blessing: before eating, dear, exam, sleep;
etc.

Designed, approved christian religion prayer rules are read in a certain sequence. However, the question arises: if for some reason (ignorance, for example) the order of reading established by the church is violated, will the Lord not hear us? Of course he will!

More about the text of the prayer Living help or Psalm 90

The correct name of the sacred text is Psalm 90, which is written in the fairly well-known book of the Psalter. Often, prayer can be used by those who need God's strong help, who need to be shown the right path in a seemingly hopeless situation. Many call Psalm 90 a real talisman against all the troubles that can happen in life. If we compare Living Help with other prayers, then it can be put on a par with the well-known "Our Father" and "Our Lady, Virgin, rejoice."

It is said that Moses himself wrote the prayer. There is also a version that the author of the text is King David, who created the prayer around the 9th-10th century BC.
The uniqueness of this text is that it is used not only by Orthodox people, but also by another religion - Judaism.
It is best to carry the text with a prayer with you, write it down somewhere and fold a sheet of paper several times so that you can read it at any convenient time, protecting yourself from any danger.
Many prefer to write the words "Living Aid" on a ribbon, tying it around their waist - this serves as a literal amulet.
Even in ancient times, doctors refused to treat some diseases that were difficult to cope with. Then, people resorted to prayer, which not only relieved pain, but also saved them from the most terrible diseases.
If everything goes awry, then prayer can attract good luck. True, you can not abuse the text. It is worth reading a prayer only if luck is really needed.
It will be good if the believer learns the text by heart. Psalm 90 is important to understand, to feel the whole meaning of strong prayer.
There is a certain time when reading a prayer is considered the right time to talk with the Lord God - 12 noon. In front of a person there should be 3 icons of the Savior Jesus Christ and the face of the Archangel Michael.
A translation of Psalm 90 has recently been made into modern Russian. The text is available to the believer now, although it was impossible to read it before.
For some, a prayer was literally sewn into the belt so that it was always next to the person.

How to read a prayer correctly

To make the effect of prayer as powerful and strong as possible, you can pick up the Holy image of Jesus Christ. Another important rule is to say the prayer three times. After reading the Live Help for the first time, you need to pause a little, cross yourself three times and proceed to the second repetition.

If you follow this rule, then the effect of prayer to the Lord God will not keep you waiting. Also, when reading a sacred text, you should definitely put on a pectoral cross - this maximally attracts the attention of the Lord to the believer. The priests say that it is worth believing in what a person says, since nothing will happen without faith in prayer. On the other hand, relying only on prayer is not worth it, it is just a text, the meaning of which cannot be touched. After reading Psalm 90, you need to think about how to cope with a hopeless situation, scroll through all the solutions in your head.
