Beloved believers!

All holidays in the Orthodox Church of Christ, established in honor of the saints, bring great things to Orthodox Christians. But no matter how great the praise that we give to the saints, it cannot be compared with that which we should give to God, who created the saints.

Today is not a holiday for saints or angels. Today, the Orthodox Church of God celebrates and honors the Queen of all angels and all saints. The honoring of slaves and kings cannot be equated. Today is a royal holiday, for the Queen of all creation is now being removed from us.

However, it will be good for you to know how everything happened during the Assumption of the Virgin, how the Mother of Life was transferred from us to heaven. And here's how.

Three days before the Dormition of the Theotokos, the Most Holy and Almighty God and Our Savior, Jesus Christ, sent the Archangel Gabriel from heaven to tell His Mother about Her transmigration into irrelevance. This divine archangel, who was once sent by God to proclaim Her that She will give birth to Christ, the Savior of the world, comes now and proclaims Her transfer from this earthly life into eternal rest and into the glory and honor unspeakable awaiting Her in heaven.

And having arrived, the archangel Gabriel brought the Blessed Virgin Mary as a sign a date branch, as he brought her a lily for the Annunciation. The Most Holy Mother of God, having learned from the Archangel Gabriel that it was necessary to leave the world and this land, returned home in great joy and covered Her house with candles and incense; and, praying, she left the house and went to where she often used to pray to His Sweetest Son Jesus Christ.

Every time She bowed, the trees bowed to the ground as a sign of great reverence and reverence.

So, when the Most Holy Mother of God went to the Mount of Olives and prayed, a great and glorious miracle happened: the olives and all the trees on that mountain and all the fruit trees there, when She bowed, also bowed with Her to the very earth. And every time She bowed, the trees bowed to the ground as a sign of great reverence and reverence, lifted up to the Most Holy Mother of God, Mother of Life.

Then She returned, and there was a strong earthquake, so that the place where Her house stood was shook. And She fell prostrate in prayer, and again kindled candles and incense, and called all the holy women who lived with Her, the holy myrrh-bearers and Her friends, and said to them:

Behold, the time has come for Me to leave you, to go to My Son and My God.

And the holy women and myrrh-bearers and all the holy widows and virgins who followed the Most Holy Theotokos and Her teachings wept greatly and bitterly.

And this miracle was followed by another miracle. Suddenly there was a great whirlwind and a strong wind, and he carried the twelve apostles in the clouds of heaven (from those parts of the earth where they were sent to preach), so that they too would become partakers of the celebration and burial of the Blessed Virgin Mary. God Himself carried the Apostles in the clouds to give even greater honor and glory to His Most Holy Mother.

And when they arrived, She said to them:

My holy disciples and my Son, apostles and disciples, this is the reason why the clouds brought you here to Gethsemane. I need to get out of here; There was a message to Me from the Archangel Gabriel that I must leave you, but not for good, but go to heaven and from there help you.

And all the divine apostles wept. And finally, the great Apostle Paul came and shedding tears, said:

O Mother of Life and God the Word! I have not seen my God Jesus Christ in the flesh, and when I saw You in the flesh, it seemed to me that He Himself is always with us and I see Him Himself. And it was a great consolation for us, the apostles, to have you with us. And now you are leaving too! This is a great joy for you, for you are leaving for eternal joy. And we both rejoice and grieve. We rejoice at Your joy, for You are leaving for these holy places and endless joy, but we also grieve, for we remain here on earth, without seeing You, and without Your meekness, and without Your sacred instructions and Your holy prayers.

The other apostles said the same thing. Then the Most Pure Mother of God spoke to them the last word, saying:

Behold, I will lie on My bed and lay My body as My will be done, and you leave it that way.

And, having said this, she asked for forgiveness from all those who were there, from the divine apostles and holy wives, and, having overshadowed Herself with the sign of the cross, lay down on the bed, closed her eyes, folded her hands on her chest and gave up her spirit.

O Thy miracles, Most Pure Mother of God! As soon as the Blessed Mother gave up Her most holy and most pure spirit into the hands of Her Son, all the blind and all the crippled, lame and sick, who came there from the city and all its surroundings, were made healthy! The dumb spoke, the deaf heard, the lepers were cleansed, the lame walked, for the Most Holy God and Savior Christ was so pleased to honor the Dormition of the Most Holy Mother with His glorious miracles, so that everyone would know that it was not an ordinary woman who died, but the Mother of the Word, the Mother of God, the God of miracles.

And as soon as the Mother of God gave up her most pure soul, the divine apostles heard thousands and millions of chants of angels in the air, praising and singing the procession of the Mother of the Most Holy God. And they themselves sang, like the angels in the air.

And taking a bed with the most pure and most holy body of the Mother of God, they began their journey to the Garden of Gethsemane, carrying it there to put it in the grave. And they were accompanied by angelic chants from the air, and the apostles with many Christians and all the disciples of Jesus Christ sang on earth. And there was a common singing of the verbal flock of Jesus Christ on earth and the clever flock in heaven, that is, angels. And so they saw off both heaven and earth - that is, both people and angels - the Mother of God to Her Most Holy Sepulcher.

And when they walked in this way, and songs were heard, and a fragrance emanated from the holy body, filling the places through which they passed, the envy of the Jews aroused, and some of them rushed with great audacity to throw that holy bed from the shoulders of the apostles to the ground. And one even dared to come up and raise his hands on the holy bed. But - about Your miracles, Mother of God! - everyone who wanted to throw off the stretcher from the shoulders of the apostles became blind and could no longer see where they came from or where they were going!

And those who impiously dared to touch the stretcher with the body of the Mother of God, were immediately cut off by an angel's hands

And the one who dared - that was a Jew called Anthony - to touch the most pure stretcher on which the holy body of the Mother of God rested, both hands were immediately cut off by the invisible angelic right hand, and they hung, clinging to the stretcher, and he himself collapsed without feeling and half-dead.

And they began to ask for forgiveness from the Mother of God and the blind, and the one whose hands were cut off. And then the divine Apostle Peter, taking from the breast of the Mother of God, from the stretcher, a palm branch brought to Her by the archangel Gabriel, put it to the eyes of the blind, and immediately they became healthy, and when he touched the hands cut off by an invisible angel, then his hands grew together again!

And so the glorious miracles of the Mother of God took place. That is why they all exclaimed with one voice:

Great is God Jesus Christ and great is His Most Pure Mother, Blessed Virgin Mary!

And everyone went on together. Those who were jealous earlier also walked, singing and confessing their sins to Christ God, and, repenting for their previous sin, sang the Mother of mercy, the Mother of the Lord, who did not withhold their sin, but forgave everyone and gave them healing.

And, having come to the Garden of Gethsemane, they put the most pure body of the Mother of God in a stone coffin, new, hewn in advance, and putting a stone to the door of the coffin, for three days and three nights they heard the singing of angels around the tomb of the Most Holy Theotokos.

Then another wonderful thing happened. The Apostle Thomas, who was not even at the Resurrection of the Lord and therefore did not believe that the Risen Savior appeared to ten disciples, was late even now, by the Providence of God. And he was not brought in the clouds of heaven along with the rest, but the cloud brought him after the burial of the Mother of God. Therefore, he was sad and very mournful, thinking: “For what sins did I not deserve to see the Mother of God in the flesh one day? For what sin did I delay in faith with the Resurrection, and now I was late - for the Dormition of the Mother of God? "

And then God inspired the apostles to open the tomb of the Most Holy Theotokos, from a general council, so that Thomas would kiss the feet of the Most Holy Mother of God in the tomb and receive comfort and firm hope that his preaching of the Gospel of Jesus Christ would also be accepted.

And when they opened the grave and the grave of the Mother of God - about Your miracles, Most Holy Theotokos! - they did not find the body of the Blessed Virgin Mary there, but only one shroud, as it remained in the tomb of the Savior Christ after the Resurrection, for our Most Holy God and Savior Jesus Christ took His Most Holy Mother to heaven with the body and put it in the place that He Himself knows.

This is a genuine event, brethren, and this truth about what happened during the Assumption of the Mother of God has been transmitted to this day.

But pay attention to the fact that great miracles also happened during the terrible suffering of our Savior Jesus Christ, during His crucifixion and death. There was darkness from the sixth to the ninth hour all over the earth. There the earth shook and the stones split in two in Jerusalem. There the coffins were opened and the dead were raised.

And so, just as at the end of our Savior Jesus Christ, glorious and great miracles were performed, so Her Most Holy God and Son, our Savior Jesus Christ, was pleased to honor the Dormition of His Most Holy Mother with glorious miracles. These were: the coming of the Archangel Gabriel, the bowing of the trees that bowed to Her on the Mount of Olives, the arrival of the divine apostles on the clouds, the blinding and cutting off of the hands of the impudent and their healing after repentance, angelic chants, heard from all sides in an invisible way, accompanying the Mother of God to the grave, and then Her ascension with flesh to heaven and leaving the most holy shroud in the tomb, as a consolation for those who remain on earth.

Why did God crown the Assumption of His Most Pure Mother with so many miracles?

But why did so many miracles happen? Why, when the Mother of God gave up Her spirit, were so many deaf, lepers, lame, one-armed, dry-handed and all other sick people healed? Why did the Most Holy God crown the Assumption of His Most Pure Mother with so many glorious miracles? That is why: for us and for our faith, so that we know until the very end of the world who the Mother of God was on earth, who then moved to heaven.

The one who then settled into heaven is the Daughter of God, for do you hear what the Holy Spirit says? “Hear, O children, and see, and incline Thy ear, and forget Thy people,” and so on. And at the same time She is the Mother of the Word in the flesh. Again, the Holy Spirit tells us this: that then the Most Immaculate Bride, the Royal Palace of the Most Holy Spirit, the most holy and most pure chamber of the Spirit was transformed into heaven.

And if we ask the holy prophets and each of them individually, we will hear from everyone: now the spiritual and verbal Dove has settled into heaven, bringing into the world the sign of the end of the flood of sin - the olive branch carried by Noah's dove, the sign of God's propitiation for the salvation of the human race ... The divine prophets would have told us this: now the clever ladder has settled into heaven, the spiritual ladder, along which human nature rose from earth to heaven and sat down at the right hand of God the Father by means of about the woman's body of Jesus Christ.

Let us ask David, Her blessed ancestor and parent, the Father of God in the flesh, and he will also tell us: now the Queen, standing at the right hand of the Holy Trinity in golden robes, has settled into heaven, and is adorned with garments.

Ezekiel the prophet will tell us: now the closed door of God has passed into heaven, through which no one passed, only the Lord God, and left Her as a prisoner, without breaking the seals of Her virginity.

If we ask the prophet Isaiah, he will also tell us: now the Virgin, who gave birth to Immanuel, that is, Christ God, who is and will always be with us, has settled into heaven.

If we ask Gideon, he will tell us too: now the fleece, full of the dew of the Holy Spirit, has moved to heaven.

If we ask the prophet Habakkuk, he will tell us in turn: now the mountain of God, overshadowed by a thick shadow, has settled into heaven.

And David will tell us again: now the mountain in which God was pleased to live has settled into heaven.

If we ask the prophets, everyone will say that now the Mother of God the Word, the Mother of Life, the Mother of mercy and mercy has passed from us to heaven.

Yes, brethren, how much more they would say about the Mother of God, but it is impossible to retell this at one Liturgy, for the time is too short and no one can praise Her at her worth. Let us know that today our Mother, Mother of mercy and mercy has settled into heaven. For all of us to whom God is the Father, the Spiritual Mother is the Mother of the Lord, Who always prays and always intercedes for us and for the salvation of the human race.

God would have ruined the world long ago, as the divine fathers say, for the many sins with which people anger God; but the Mother of the Lord, just as she bound Jesus Christ in her life and swaddled Him in a manger, also now binds the wrath of God and stops Him so that He does not destroy the human race. For the Mother does not want mercy and mercy for God to destroy the souls of people, for she knows that if God's anger were kindled, then he would destroy the whole world, which has become the abode of so many sins and evils.

The Most Holy Virgin Theotokos, who served the Father as a Daughter, Christ as a Mother and as a holy Servant - the Holy Spirit, always remains the Servant and Servant of the Lord, as stated in the Gospel, now always serving the Most Holy Trinity in heaven together with all the saints and angels after ceaselessly served Him on earth until her last breath, now she always intercedes and always prays for us and our salvation.

We have there, in heaven, a kind and merciful Mother. Do not think that if today the Mother of the Lord settled in heaven, then She left the world. Not! Once going there, She has b aboutmore power and with b abouthelps us with the greatest strength. She is now closer to the Throne of the Divine, She went there to always look to the needs of the poor, the prayers of widows, to the poor, prisoners, persecuted, suffering, sick. There She became a Mother, helping everyone in trouble, everyone oppressed and everyone who loves Her and calls for help with all her heart. We have a Mother in heaven, a Mother of mercy and mercy, Who always prays for the whole Church of Christ and each child of the Church of Christ separately.

Blessed and thrice blessed are the Christians who keep the icon of the Most Holy Theotokos in their home

Blessed and thrice blessed are the Christians who keep the icon of the Most Holy Theotokos in their home and read other prayers of the Mother of God every day. There is no person in heaven and on earth more powerful, after the Holy Trinity, than the Mother of God, who can help us.

If the memory of the righteous is with praises, then how much praise should we bring to the Mother of God - the Queen of all the righteous, all the saints and all the angels of God? And if She is the Queen, then from the Most Holy God she also has great power to help us, to patronize the world, to come to the aid of both small and large, and rich and poor, and wise and simple, and sick and healthy, and to all believers, being at the same time as our Heavenly Mother.

Blessed are those Christians who, after the Holy Trinity, revere the Mother of God with all their hearts and, wherever they go, say this: "Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, with the prayers of Thy Most Pure Mother and all Thy saints, have mercy on me, a sinner (sinner)."

I will tell you one story so that you can see how the ambulance Mother of God

I will tell you one story so that you can see how an ambulance Mother of God is to those for whom she is the Mother and who reveres Her as the Mother of God the Word, and how close She is to those who believe in Her and always call on Her for help.

There was a widow woman whose husband died when she was still young, and she was left with two small children. And the poor woman also had a household. But she honored God and the Most Holy Theotokos, kept Her icon in her house with the Divine Child in her arms. And she taught children from an early age to bow before the icon, read Our Father, read Believe and, for a start, at least the shortest prayers to the Mother of God. And children, like babies, which they were, asked:

Mom, who is this on the icon?

And she told them:

This is your Mama, your true Mama.

Are you not our mother?

She said:

No, your true Mother is in heaven, and Her name is the Mother of God.

And Who Is This Child That She Holds In Her Arms? they asked.

This is our Lord Jesus Christ, who created us and was carried in the womb of the Mother of God. She gave birth to Him from the Holy Spirit, and He was God and perfect Man.

This is how the poor mother taught her children who the Mother of God is, and taught them with all her heart that the Mother of God is their real Mother. That is why the children, waking up in the morning, before speaking to their mother, resorted to the Mother of God, made several prostrations to the ground, read Our Father and then prayers to the Mother of God, honoring Her according to the power of their children's understanding.

And then one day a poor woman had to go to the harvest in the field, and there was no one to leave her children to. And it was her custom, leaving the children, to lock them in the house. And so she called the children, left them to eat and said:

You are left at home alone; I will go to work, because I have to reap a lot.

And the children asked:

Who will we stay with?

So, you stay with your Mother, and showed them the icon of the Mother of God, in front of which the lamp was burning.

And she also said:

Your Mother stays with you and will protect you, and you be smart and pray if you find yourself in trouble. Call to Her, for She will protect you!

The children believed their mother that they were not alone, but with their Heavenly Mother. And the poor woman went hastily to her work, into the field. And the children prayed, and their mind kept moving from one to the other, not stopping at one thought.

So, they forgot about mom's advice. We prayed for a while, then took up games and began to play with fire. Mom, I said, locked them in the house so that they would not go out into the street and get lost, knowing that she would hardly return home in half a day.

And when the children began to play with the fire, the house caught fire. And they, seeing that household things, carpets and what else they had had flared up, and when they saw that the whole house was on fire, and there was no one to come to extinguish it, because it was summer time and everyone was at work, they ran to the icon of the Mother of God, grabbed her hands and shouted:

Mom, don't leave us!

The house burned down, but the fire did not touch the wall where the icon of the Most Holy Theotokos hung, which the children clung to!

And - about Your miracles, Mother of God! - the whole house burned down, but the fire did not touch the wall, on which the icon of the Most Holy Theotokos hung with the children clutching it!

The woman heard in the field, for someone brought this message to her:

Oh, woman, your house burned down!

And she, poor thing, says:

Oh woe to me, I left the children at home!

But the one who said did not know about the miracle that happened to the children, but only told her that: "Run, for I heard that this is your home!"

But she, hearing, poor, and knowing that she had locked her children in the house, started running at a run, and her heart was ready to jump out of her chest from this run and fright. And when she ran to the outskirts, she asked:

Did my house burn down?

Yes, - they answered her, - your house burned down. We saw you have a big fire, and people ran to put it out, but the house was already burnt down.

And she cried out:

Mother of God, how did you leave my children, I left them on you!

And, sobbing and wailing, she ran like a madman. And, having come running, she saw that the people were standing and looking at the glorious miracle: the whole house had burned down, and the wall with the icon of the Virgin was intact, and the kids were holding onto the icon with their little hands and shouting: "Mom, Mom!"

And, seeing this, the poor woman threw herself through the fire to the icon of the Mother of God and with great gratitude thanked the Mother of God that these babies, whom she had entrusted to Her, had kept alive and healthy.

Whatever sorrow befalls you and whatever misfortune, call on the Mother of God!

I told you this in order to show: whoever honors the Theotokos as his Mother and Patroness, She will protect him: him and his children, and cattle, and all acquisitions. Have this faith always, so that an akathist and an honest prayer of the Mother of God do not descend in your house, and no matter what sorrow befalls you and what misfortune, call on the Mother of God with all your heart, and She will certainly come with Her first aid, with holy and unrelenting prayers Your own.

Know that there is no soul under heaven that would put its trust in the Mother of God and remain ashamed to the end. Through her prayers, she will have peace, consolation, cover and refuge in this age, and at the moment of death the grace of the Mother of God will not leave her. And on the day of Judgment, the Most Holy Mother will kneel before Her Most Holy and Sweetest Son and our God Jesus Christ and say: “Lord God and My Son, this tortured soul even if it sinned, but always asked Me to pray to You. Forgive her, have mercy and do mercy on her. "

And so, through the prayers of the Most Holy Theotokos, we will gain mercy in this age, at the time of death, and on the day of Judgment.
