The Jesus prayer means a lot to me, because at night I am regularly plagued with lots of thoughts and temptations right before I sleep. It is very hard to fall asleep when you begin to stress about thoughts of the day. Also, I find, at least for me, that this is a time when my mind wishes to recount the things of the day, and perhaps even fantasize about how I wish things would and could have gone. All of this is foolishness and to be avoided, and nothing is better than the Jesus prayer and the Psalms to cast such things away. I forget which saint said it, but it has proven true again and again, if you will busy yourself with the Jesus prayer, you will not be lost

@@orthodoxinquirer1239 Dear brother, even if at the moment you don't have the Holy Orthodox Baptism or you don't have a church where you can go and pray, you can still pray at any time and in any place. Prayer is not conditioned by place and time, and it helps us connect with God, gives us the great honor to thank God and to ask for His mercy. You can also make the Holy Cross sign over your body. When making the Holy Cross use your right hand, joining its fingers as follows: the thumb, forefinger and middle finger are joined at one point, while the ring and the little finger are held in the palm. The three fingers thus put together are placed on the forehead - to sanctify the mind - then go down to the navel - to sanctify the senses - from there the hand goes to the right shoulder, and then it goes horizontally to the left shoulder - to sanctify the power of the body. While the sign of the Holy Cross is made, we say: "in the name of the Father" (when the hand is on the forehead), "and of the Son" (when the hand goes down to the navel), "and of the Holy Spirit" (when the hand goes from one shoulder to the other), "Amen" (when we withdraw our hand from the left shoulder). The three fingers together symbolize the unity of the Holy and inseparable Trinity. The other two fingers, close together and both in the palm of the hand imagine the two natures, human and divine, united in the person of our Lord Jesus Christ. You can write us your first name so we can ask God to help you in our prayers. But it is most important that you pray yorself, at first with simple prayers towards Lord Christ. Try always to be honest and kind towards people. Pray each day and God will certainly help you. God bless!

I was desperate and in a very bad state when I first heard about the Jesus prayer, near 2 years ago. I had just begun to pray regularly and was wracked by remorse, in anguish over my sins and failures. One day I was awake in the early morning, maybe 3 to 4 AM, and again suffering emotionally from the consequences of my sins; so I prayed the Jesus prayer fervently, intensely, for what must have been 5 minutes straight. When I opened my eyes Jesus's face appeared right in front of me, filling my whole vision. He look at me for a moment with a measuring gaze. Then He smiled kindly. I believe He wanted to encourage me. His appearance gave me the strength and faith to keep going. The Jesus prayer saved my life, and it may have saved my soul Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner. 🙏

I am a Catholic but I feel the Catholic church is corrupted and encourages it's people to rely and to worship the church instead of God. I have not attended any form of worship now for a very long time. I feel the truth in this father's sermons, I struggle to pray as my thoughts and prayers become distracted with conversations and arguments past present and future and it normally brings my prayer to a halt. It's like my own mind ambushes me. I'm going to look up the Jesus prayer and start saying it and see if God responds to me in a way I can discern is empowering and I message of direction to me. It's been so long since I've felt his direct guidance in my life. In these times I've committed willfully and negligently so much sin that it's hard for me not to feel that there is anyway back but, I know in my heart Jesus will stand by me in my journey back into God's grace. If I can just reject everything I know is sin! It's terrifying, the thought of causing so much rejection by those who say they care about me when I take such a radical life shift. I know on a human level I will have to walk alone once more to walk on a spiritual level again with God. Pray for me and for my conviction in the holy spirit.

For every hour of this day, instruct and support me in all things. Whatsoever tidings I may receive during the day, do Thou teach me to accept tranquilly, in the firm conviction that all eventualities fulfill Thy Holy Will. Govern Thou my thoughts and feelings in all I do and say. When things unforeseen occur , let me not forget that all cometh down from Thee. Teach me to behave sincerely and rationally toward every member of my family, that I may bring confusion and sorrow to none. Bestow upon me, my Lord, strength to endure the fatigue of the day, and to bear my part in all its passing events. Guide Thou my will and teach me to pray, to believe, to hope, to suffer, to forgive, and to love.

Our Faith can move beyond where we believe to where we know. As a young man I believed and thought about God 20 minutes once per week. After a lot of suffering I have come to the point where His comfort from the Holy Spirit has become like oxygen to me. I cant survive with out Him and have surrendered every thing in my life to Him. There is nothing in this universe that can compare with the companionship and love of the Holy Spirit. We don't need to worry about being mystical. A lot of Americans say they believe in Jesus but when you mention the Holy Spirit they kind of shut down and get scared. The Bible says that "Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom." The Holy Spirit is the lord. Nothing to fear and every thing to gain.

I could never "pray without ceasing" until I discovered the Jesus Prayer. Now, I pray the Jesus Prayer when I am walking or driving or even just sitting in my kitchen at home. I watched another of your videos in which you said to pray the Jesus Prayer on my fingers. I do this regularly now and I have discovered that this prayer helps me to shut out everything that is on my mind and focus completely on Jesus in a way that nothing else does. I usually repeat the Jesus Prayer 10 times, one for each finger, and conclude with "Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Ghost, as it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, world without end". Instead of praying quickly and being distracted all the time, praying the Jeaus Prayer brings me very close to God and I can pray for any length of time. I feel that this prayer is the key to a close relationship with our Heavenly Father, through His Son in the power of His Spirit. Thank you Father Spyridon for your wisdom and good advice. God bless you and your work.

Sleep paralysis, as this experience showed you, is a spiritual affliction not a mental one. I’m so, so glad that God delivered you. Praise be to Him

@@davidarmy9001an affliction? It is the spirit beginning to seperate from the body- it is preparation for death-but to your point, it is not without its dangers.

Yeah people should start praying God while they has the time. The book of revelation happenings are going on atm. Also, how that revelations book says, we have existed in the chapter 13 already. Such a funny thing, how this world has truly gone into better direction due to many prayers and help we've received from God. Also how ironic it is that people still think Jesus Christ is just some random man that once existed who seemed truly pure and nothing else. Well, he is the son of God, he proved a lot of things relating God, and proved how God loves us all, but of course amd obviously (i guess) hates sin. Well, how can people explain at all these things, if they have not even given themselves any chane to understand anything about these= How can they explain what is holy spirit if they have not understood or felt them at ALL? God cares about his children. Jesus Christ knows all of our pain we still go through. When folks has gone baptized, God gives them the gift of the holy spirit, and then afterwards, all of us can see how those evil spirits and demons etc even satan itself goes around you, tries to convert you to come to their side, to the dark forces side. Well, they cannot come into you, UNLESS you give them a chance. Do NOT give them at all ANY chance to come inside you, because then you are screwed, and it will be hard for Jesus Christ, the son of God, to help you. Even if you feel like pissed off, do not let that overwhelm you. Times are gonna be rough, the new world order (great babylon) will be real tough one for all of us. remain strong, and pray for Jesus Christ to help you go through it. He has anyways won this whole battle with the evil forces. You got no idea, you who thinks Jesus Christ as just a typical religious stuff. No idea. Just go for example listen to tila tequila, who was once controlled by the devil, through the intelligence service that follows that evil on,e CIA, with their "voice of god" (mk ultra. Seriously, they named that mk ultra "the voice of god"). For it said in the bible, God gave once the greatest angel of all time, the gift of music. But that angle, lusifer, became greedy, and wanted to have more, wanted ALL the powers, God has. But God already knew, what lusifer had in mind, and expelled it from the paradise. And lusifer felt vengeange, and used the gift of God for it's own advantage. For two thousand years, the satan tried to grow it's powers. But for nothing. It thinks it has won. But is just depleting it's strength. It thinks by doing evil things, sucking everyones souls, etc, makes it stronger. But wrong, by the holy spirits come, when the peoples who follows, or even once followed Christ, who were helped by Christ, will be the ones who with Gods holy light, drive away ALL the evil forces from the world, and everyone will cheer for Jesus Christ, our Lord, and saviour. We'll see him sitting in the middle of the clouds, and there is no chance for any evil spirits to bully anyone on this world anyone anymore. Everyone will become free from dark forces grips, by the light in the world WILL burn ALL the demons, dark ones, and the king of lies, satan. Because of God, the worlds been going to better direction. He is the one we all should be thankful for. remember, the dark ones does NOTHING but lies to you! They uses your inner bad feelings for their own advantage. Remember to care about yourselves too. And remember to pray, even if it may seem like it has no force, like it is useless. Do not let those thoughts distract you, prayers are REALLY powerful! No lying! From experience i can say this! Praying makes all the bad things and spirits flee from terror, you can really feel it! Do not think too much of the satans image, because that will just try to manipulate you, it tries to use you and convert basically eevn your thoughts like the opposite of how you otherwise feel for example holy things or just Jesus Christ. That dark evil thing even tries to put itself as an image of the true son of God, who died for all of our sins in a cross, pretending to be the saviour, and lies about there being nothing else than the antichrist. Basically everything about something that sounds bad, is actually it's lies, satan is the king of lies, it wants you to trust it, but you shouldn't really trust nothing it tries to tell to you, otherwise, like i wrote, it'll be more difficult for you to concentrate to Jesus Christ, who is trying to help us understand. Just leep your flag high and think about the actual Jesus, son of God, even that holy cross in your mind and heart. Thus you'll see that it is just that satan that tries to lie to you, and convert you to bad forces, or give some information about Jesus Christ etc. Think about Gods ten commands. They aren't even much effort needing things. They are; 1- I am Lord, your God. You must not have other gods. (should be obvious. If you have other gods while having that one god, your efforts of remaining clear with the mind is difficult to upkeep. Besides, pretty much other "gods" of this world aren't really gods, they are those demon things pretending to be gods, mostly, or aren't really true gods like the Father in Heavens. Seriously, this is true.) 2 - Do not use your Lord, Gods, name falsely. (For example do not ask for random stuff for nothing, or use his name like you don't need to do anything, for you also need to do something) 3 - Respect your mother and father. 4 - Remember to holify your resting day (For example, pray for Jesus Christ, son of God to help you make your rest holy. It purifies the mind, seriously. The holy spirit fills up on you and it will help keep out all the evil forces.) 5 - Do not kill. 6 - Do not do marriage crimes. 7 - Do not steal. 8 - Do not obtain your closes ones possession. 9 - Do not speak false truths about your closest ones. 10 - Do not obtain your closest ones wife, property, cattle, farm, or anything, that belongs to them. Does not really require much. How much gratefulness we people should give for God, for giving us this much things to keep in mind? Really, after all kinds of things, we have done, so much sins that shouldn't basically be forgiven because they were really bad, like not anyhone with basic sense would forgive someone of their actions. Jesus Christ is truly fair, he loves us all (from experience, this also is very true.). All who follows those commands, will be saved. God is truly fair, and merciful, even to those who did real bad stuff in their "previous" lives. Thankyou Lord Jesus Christ, son of God, for these things you gave us, freed us from the sins, freed us from evils grips. For everything, literally. Amen.

Please also pray for me. I'm also researching Orthodoxy and all I want is to obey, listen, and do what is asked. I want to trust completely. I long for salvation. Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on me, a sinner.
