The icon "Unexpected joy" gives precisely joy, and then, when a person is desperate to expect a change for the better, when he no longer has any hope in his soul, and he does not expect help, he hopes only for a miracle. And a miracle descends upon him, from this icon, and is given to the prayer a joy that he did not expect.
From what and how the icon can protect
The main thing is that “Unexpected joy” is able to hear and accept a prayer asking for help from someone's deafness, however, it is not necessary at all that this deafness is a physical disability. Spiritual or spiritual deafness is much more common, and it is she who is much worse than an ailment. The prayer, which is addressed to the Mother of God, and in front of the icon of "Unexpected joy", is able to protect against a large number of misfortunes.
In order for prayer to reach the ears of the Lord, one must also pray correctly. If you read just a prayer, empty, you need to wholeheartedly surrender to the request and reject at this moment everything so that the sound of the prayer goes up, clear and clear.
If there are many sorrows in life, spouses are separated, or relatives are lost somewhere, if they are persecuted by deprivation and slander, all these situations can be destroyed by prayer for the icon "Unexpected joy." You just need to ask about her and her protection. And then they will bypass the danger side, far gone, or who left will be guaranteed a safe return to their native land.
