Most glorified art Thou, O Christ our God, Who hast established our Martyrs* as luminous stars upon the earth, and through them didst guide us all to the true Faith. O Most Merciful One, glory be to Thee.

Apolytikion #Hymn #Christianity #ChristianPrayer

O Christ our God, who at all times and at every hour is worshipped and glorified both in heaven and on earth, Who is long suffering, Who is all-merciful, Who is ever-compassionate, Who loves the just, and Who shows mercy to the sinners, Who calls all to salvation through the promise of good things to come. The same Lord, receive at this time our supplications and direct our lives according to Your commandments. Sanctify our souls; purify our bodies; set our thoughts straight; cleanse our thoughts; and deliver us from all distress, evil, and grief. Surround us with Your holy Angels, so that guided and guarded by them we may attain to the unity of the faith, and to the comprehension of Your ineffable glory; for You are blessed, to the ages of ages. Amen.

Lord, have mercy. (3)

Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, now and ever, and to the ages of ages. Amen.

More honorable than the Cherubim, and more glorious beyond compare than the Seraphim; without defilement you gave birth to God the Word, you who are truly the Theotokos, we magnify you.

Through the prayers of our holy fathers, Lord Jesus Christ our God have mercy on us and save us. Amen.

Behold, the Bridegroom comes at midnight; and blessed is that servant whom He shall find watching, but unworthy is he whom He shall find heedless. Beware, therefore, O my soul, lest you be weighed down with sleep, lest you be given up to death, and be shut out from the kingdom. But rouse yourself and cry: "Holy, Holy, Holy are You O God; through the Theotokos have mercy on us.

Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.

Meditating on that fearful day, O my soul, watch, keep your lamp alight and filled with oil; for you do not know when the voice shall come to you saying: "Behold the Bridegroom."Beware, therefore, O my soul, lest You fall into slumber and be left outside, knocking, as were the five virgins; but wakefully watch, that You may come to meet Christ with good oil, and He shall bestow upon you the divine chamber of His glory.

Now and ever, and to the ages of ages. Amen.

O Virgin Theotokos, the unassailable wall and confirmation of salvation, we supplicate you: destroy the counsels of the enemies, change the sorrows of your people into joy, protect your city, be the ally of rulers, encourage all who are yours, strengthen your faithful ones, and pray for the peace of the world; for you, O Theotokos, are our hope.

Lord, have mercy. (Say 40 times can be in many diff languages instead of 40 the same )

“O consuming Fire, Spirit of Love, ‘come upon me,’ and create in my soul a kind of incarnation of the Word . . .” ”

Excerpt From
Elizabeth of the Trinity Complete Works
Élisabeth (Catez) de la Trinité, Soeur
#SaintElizabethOfTheTrinity #CarmeliteNuns #ChristianPrayer

God, Lord of hosts and Maker of all creation, who in Your great compassion and mercy sent down Your Only-Begotten Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, for the redemption of mankind and by His precious Cross destroyed the record of our sins, triumphing over the source and power of darkness: O Lord and Lover of mankind, accept also the thanksgiving and fervent prayers of us sinners. Deliver us from every dark and harmful transgression and from all the visible and invisible enemies that seek to destroy us. Nail our flesh to the fear of You, and do not incline our hearts to deceitful words or thoughts, but wound our souls with love for You, that always looking to You, guided by Your light, and seeing You, the eternal and ineffable Light, we may give You unceasing praise and thanksgiving: to the Father without beginning, with Your Only-Begotten Son and Your all-holy, good and life-giving Spirit, now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen. #StBasiltheGreat #ChristianPrayer #Prayer #AfternoonPrayer #MiddayPrayer

O You Who on the sixth day and hour
Nailed to the cross the sin which rebellious Adam committed in Paradise,
Tear asunder also the bond of our iniquities,
O Christ our God, and save us.
Amen.

Under the protection of your wings I shall be covered and fall asleep, for in you only, Lord, does my hope lie. Into your hands, O Lord, I commend my soul and my body. Do bless me, do have mercy on me, and grant me eternal life. Amen. #Goodnight #Prayer #ChristianPrayer

O Lady graced by God, you reward me by letting gush forth, beyond reason, the ever-flowing waters of your grace from your perpetual Spring. I entreat you, who bore the Logos, in a manner beyond comprehension, to refresh me in your grace that I may cry out, "Hail redemptive waters."

O Theotokos, your church is like the Garden of Paradise, since it pours out healings and cures like ever-living rivers. We come to it with faith, and we draw strength and eternal life from its water, through you who are the Spring that received Life himself. For you intercede with Christ our Savior, who was born from you, and you entreat Him to save our souls.

O eterne Deus,
nunc tibi placeat ut in amore illo ardeas,
ut membra illa simus, que fecisti in eodem amore,
cum Filium tuum genuisti in prima aurora
ante omnem creaturam,
et inspice necessitatem hanc que super nos cadit,
et abstrahe eam a nobis propter Filium tuum,
et perduc nos in leticiam salutis.
Amen.

Morning Offerings:

O MY GOD! I offer Thee all my actions of this day for the intentions and for the glory of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. I desire to sanctify every beat of my heart, my every thought, my simplest works, by uniting them to Its Infinite merits; and I wish to make reparation for my sins by casting them into the furnace of Its Merciful Love.

O MY GOD! I ask of Thee for myself and for those whom I hold dear, the grace to fulfill perfectly Thy Holy Will, to accept for love of Thee the joys and sorrows of this passing life, so that we may one day be united together in Heaven for all Eternity.

O MY GOD, Most Holy Trinity, I desire to love Thee and to make Thee loved—to labor for the glory of Holy Church by saving souls here upon earth and by delivering those suffering in Purgatory. I desire to fulfill perfectly Thy Holy Will, and to reach the degree of glory Thou hast prepared for me in Thy Kingdom. In a word, I wish to be holy, but knowing how helpless I am, I beseech Thee, my God, to be Thyself my holiness. I offer Thee the infinite merits of my Saviour, begging Thee to behold me only through the Eyes of Jesus. I offer Thee all the merits of the Saints, together with all their acts of love, as well as those of the Angels. Lastly I offer Thee the love and the merits of the Blessed Virgin, my dearest Mother. To Her I commit this Oblation, praying Her to present it to Thee.
Amen.

Excerpt From
The Little Flower Prayerbook
#SaintThereseOfLisieux #SaintThereseOfTheChildJesus #SaintThereseTheLittleWildflower

As I rise from sleep, I thank you, Holy Trinity, for because of your great goodness and patience, you were not angry with me, an idler and sinner, nor have you destroyed me in my sins, but have shown your usual love for me. And when I was prostrate in despair, you raised me to glorify with your power. Enlighten now my mind's eye, open my mouth to study your words and understand your commandments, to do your will and sing to you in heartfelt adoration, and praise your most holy name, of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, now and forever and to the ages of ages. Amen.

We ever thank you, O all-holy Theotokos, * and magnify you the all-pure one; and we worship * and extol your divine Son, Maiden highly favored. * All-merciful Virgin, therefore we cry aloud * unceasingly praying, Save us, since you are good. * Snatch me out from the frightening * examination of accounts * by demons in the hour of trial. * May we your servants not be ashamed. Amen.

(Say while making the sign of the Cross)

“May your light be fair to me!
May your course be smooth to me!
If good to me is your beginning,
Seven times better be your end,
Fair moon of the seasons,
Great lamp of grace!
God who created you
Created me likewise;
God who gave you weight and light
Gave to me life and death.”

Amen.
