Неделя двадцать четвертая по Пятидесятнице

(Eph. 2, 14–22; Luke 8, 41–56) Jairus publicly, falling at the feet of the Savior in front of everyone, prayed to the Lord for the healing of his daughter, and was heard. The Lord, without saying anything, immediately stood up and went to him. On the way to Jairus, the bleeding wife was healed, of course, also not without prayer on her part, although she did not cry out in words and did not fall prostrate at the feet of the Lord: she had a heartfelt prayer of faith. The Lord heard her and gave her healing. Here everything was done in secret. The bleeding heart turned to the Lord; The Lord heard this cry of the heart and granted the request. This wife and Jairus have essentially the same prayer, although some degrees can be distinguished in them. Such prayers, full of faith, hope and devotion, never go unheard. Sometimes they say: “I pray and pray, but my prayer is still not heard.” But try to rise to the level of prayer that cannot be refused, and you will see why it is not heard. If you are in a position of prayer, like Jairus, or in a simple, ordinary position, like everyone around you, like the bleeding woman, when real prayer stirs in your heart, it will undoubtedly come to the Lord and bend Him to mercy. The whole point is how to get to such prayer. Work hard and you will get there. All orders of prayer have the goal of raising prayer books to such a measure of prayer, and everyone who intelligently follows this prayer course achieves their goal. You might be interested in:
