Faith makes a person look at life in a new way. Other priorities and goals appear. Prayer begins to provide tremendous support in life. But this raises the question of how pleasing to God is prayer made for money.
First, you need to understand what is meant by prayer for money. It is no secret that in churches you can order various services for money - for example, prayers for health, for repose, etc. Many believers are confused by this moment, God and money seem incompatible. This pushes others away from the church, makes them wonder whether such a prayer will be pleasing to God.
What they pay for in the church
Someone will answer this question very simply - “for everything”. It seems to be true, just look at the price tags hanging in churches. But there is one point that must be taken into account: all prices in churches are recommended. In other words, if you cannot pay the recommended amount for something, they will help you without money.
The issue of paying for church services is quite complicated, you just need to figure it out. The church is not funded by the state and must seek its own sources of funding. In fact, her income consists of donations and payments for various church services and goods - candles, icons, etc. Therefore, you just need to treat this moment with understanding - the priests with great pleasure would perform all the rituals and sacraments completely free of charge, but they and the church need to exist for something.
How God Accepts Prayer for Money
It is necessary to understand that money plays absolutely no role here. And the "purchased" prayer of a priest or monk will be received by God in the same way as any other prayer of theirs.
There is one more important point. When a person pays money for prayer and is inwardly distressed about it, feels irritated that he has to pay, he already makes a mistake. God knows all the feelings of a person, therefore, prayer in this case may remain unanswered - only because a person has demonstrated the dark side of his soul.
The same applies to a person's doubt that the prayer for which he paid will be read sincerely, with the due degree of faith. Here again the dark sides of the human soul are manifested - you cannot think badly of people, especially when you do not know anything about them.
Each person must answer for himself: a believer, having ordered a prayer, must pay for it from a pure heart, realizing that he does not pay for prayer as such, that it is simply his feasible help to the church, his gift. The minister of the church, for his part, should sincerely read the prayer, putting his whole soul into it.
It was already mentioned above that God knows all the feelings and thoughts of a person. Therefore, the prayer that you order with a pure heart and calm soul will be heard by God even before it is read. What matters is the very fact that you order it, that you remember someone, you want good for that person. Your intention is primary - if it is sincere, God will surely hear you.
