air with a passionate veil, which symbolized the deliverance of the byzantines from the invasion for nephews. but it would seem really a great manifestation of god's mercy through the queen of heaven. a sign of the deliverance of the byzantines from the terrible enemy. but surprisingly, there is no feast of the intercession of the most holy theotokos in greek churches . and the memory of this event is not there. and why is this event so reflected in the spiritual life of our people? yes, probably because our people are long-suffering. and he went through such tests, through which there are few. what european people passed. these were devastating raids from the east. and cruel

invasion of the west, the country constantly fought for itself for its faith, the people fought, including for preservation. the lives of people in our boundless expanses, and therefore, whenever an invasion of nephews took place, the need of our people to turn to the queen of heaven for help was especially aggravated, as it was in the time of troubles. the most difficult era in the history of the people, when both internal and external forces worked to destroy the country. and this destruction could turn into a betrayal of orthodoxy. and that's when we know.

what was the appearance of the kazan icon of the mother of god and prayers were performed before it? and showed, the queen of heaven mercy over the people of our country well, another terrible historical disaster napoleon's invasion for us, this is a long time past, well, we know from textbooks from works of art , but in fact it was a world war, the whole west took up arms against russia this is not just napoleon with a group of armed french soldiers. and this is europe united attacked russia to seize our fatherland to reformat tear us away from the sources of our faith. and turn us into a kind of colony of powerful

western powers. and what happens? then the marvelous image of the mother of god of smolensk appears, with which mikhail larionovich kutuzov came to the borodino field. and although, according to researchers, the forces advancing the french, and in fact the pan-european army, were superior to the forces of the russians, we know. that, without powers, as if a visible victory, having achieved a certain draw at this battle of borodino , in fact, the great victory was won because napoleon realized that there is a power capable of being at least equal to his power. and so

the expulsion of napoleon from moscow and then from russia had its root cause in that very battle. on the field of borodino appeared the wondrous image of the most holy mother of god of smolensk. and we know that at the moment of the most delicate revolutionary. upheavals in our country, when the very existence of historical russia really hung by a thread, another sovereign image of the most holy theotokos was revealed. the tsar was overthrown. the throne remained free for this the throne no longer ascended in russia no man. for he was not worthy. through this highest service

to govern the people. and the image of the sovereign icon of the mother of god appeared and people perceived it as the accession of the queen of heaven on the throne of all russia . of course, if you tell all this to outsiders who do not know our history and do not empathize with us, then, probably, people will not fully understand what is at stake, but we understand. the appearance of the mother of god at the most critical moments of our history and through this phenomenon giving us salvation that's today. rather difficult circumstances related to what is happening.

forces that dream of destroying and conquering russia are rising again on the outer borders of our fatherland, today all this is clothed in other verbal forms, but behind all this there is an inescapable dream. those who from the west attacked russia destroy our sovereignty solve us freedom and then and then use all the resources of the richest country in the world for their own purposes. and today, with a very special feeling, the prayer of the most holy theotokos is lifted up and with a special feeling it is remembered events related to the glorification of the queen

of heaven, sitting on the throne. we believe that the most pure protection under the blessed queen of heaven is over us over our country over our people. and so it will be as long as we keep the faith. and now my word is especially to those who, as it were, doubt the faith, who are marking time in their spiritual life, who do not deny, but do not accept, who say, well, yes, there is probably something there, but behind these words there are no changes in the real life of a person. here's to to all these doubters, my word is not the time to doubt today. today is the time to mobilize our spiritual strength to ask the lord, the most pure queen of heaven. so that over dan there was strength for our people to

stop the enemy and protect the borders of our fatherland. and that means to preserve the independence and freedom of russia for which she fought throughout her history and gaining this freedom and became a great power. we ask the queen of heaven. so that she stretches her sovereign veil over us, as it was over the previous generations of orthodox residents of russia and we believe that through prayers before the face of the most pure queen of heaven, through prayers that will flow from pure hearts and from sincere deep faith. victory will be granted to us even now and we will preserve our

freedom, our independence, our right to live according to the great traditions that the previous heroic generations have destined for us according to their faith. and hope what exactly is this life? including will contribute to the spiritual revival. of our people, we pray for all this and hope that the queen of heaven will bend her mercy over the russian land and over our people, strengthening us on the paths. of our historical movement in such a way that the

soul of the people, its faith and its opportunity to live in a free and independent country, which our previous generations gave us, remain intact. yes, the queen of heaven preserves our russian church and all those who, with faith and hope, ask that the most pure veil be stretched over them and i for the salvation of our souls and bodies. amen happy holidays to you congratulations.
