Prayer to the guardian angel of the child
The Orthodox faith permits the reading of a protective prayer to the angel guarding the child. The child himself can say it, but it is better for parents to do it, because by virtue of their age they feel the prayer more deeply and convey its essence more precisely. The proof of prayer is needed in order to overcome a serious illness or to ask for help in any other life situation related to difficulty. When making a prayer, the mother or father should be in the right mood, forget about anger and despair, and pronounce the words only with good thoughts.

“Guardian angel of the servant of God / servant of God (name of the child), I implore you and ask for protection. Do not leave my child on the road and do not lower your wings for him and my sins. Save my child from bad people and damn dangers. Block the path of malicious invasion and send down from heaven a solid defense against ailments. Guardian angel, lead my child to the Orthodox faith in Christ. May it be so. Amen".
After the prayer, thank the intercessor and say praise in his honor.
If an event with unpredictable consequences is expected in a child’s life, read the prayer as follows:
“Oh, winged protector, guardian angel of the child. Do not leave him on a difficult path and protect him from filth and malice. Do not allow fierce envy and black hatred. Save my child from corruption, evil eye and witchcraft. Have mercy on my child and do not be angry for his sinful deeds. May it be so. Amen!"
How to read the text of a prayer?
It is believed that you can pray to the spirit given at baptism at any time of the day. But there are certain rules. If you want to establish and make a strong bond with an angel, then the prayer is read in the morningbefore breakfast. So you turn to a higher power with a pure physical shell and a sober spirit. You can’t rush: reading the text quickly to catch the table, you show disrespect to the invisible assistant. But thanksgiving prayer is more appropriate to pronounce before going to bed.
Whatever the appeal says, the effect grows if you read the prayer before the icon of the invisible patron. The text of the prayer should be completed with words of appreciation. Do not treat the angel as a kind of utilitarian power: remember that the spirit entrusted to you at birth protects you and is responsible for your fate before God. But the way you build your life and what decisions you make remains only on your personal conscience.
If you ask for the help of someone else’s angel, do not forget to regularly insert in the text the name of the person you are praying for. Turn to the spirit with the same strong faith, as if you were crying out to help yourself. Remember that the appeal will work if the request was clean and did not carry selfish motives.
