Someone will say nonsense, describe it with their favorite word “obscurity”, “a relic of the past”, explain it with a lack of oxygen. In short, a simple physiological reason, but even under it lies a spiritual explanation, informs Ukr.Media.
There are several reasons for yawning during prayer, and no matter what good intention we strive for, there are obstacles everywhere, and if a good deed is done, expect temptations, so to speak, “retribution” for the desire to become like Christ.
Even while reading a prayer, one may feel sleepy, urgent or unfinished business suddenly appears, children become naughty. The body begins to ache, the legs hum, a cold sweat appears, the knees begin to tremble, everyone has a different way. And all because the Spirit of God touches us in prayer, and we have a completely different, different spirit. And this is the reaction. It all depends on who we are, on ourselves. We are far from the grace of God…
What to do? The main thing is not to abandon the prayer rule, but rather to increase it. Against all odds, “through thorns to the stars.” So it gradually recedes, and then stops altogether.
Some priests advise to cross the mouth when yawning during prayer, saying: “In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.” Other clergy recommend reciting the “Our Father” at the moment of yawning.
This is how the unclean ones torment people, distract them, and hinder their salvation.
It is like comparing a person to a raw log, which, when exposed to fire, cracks, smokes, and fumes. So here too, the person himself is not pure, but the Divine energy burns everything.
Some people in church faint. The explanation is simple. The spirit that is in the church and the spirit that is in us, if they are different, leads to such a reaction. After all, in the Church there is the Spirit of God, but in a person sometimes there is a spirit of offense, evil, a spirit of hatred…
If this continues, you must first correct yourself, go to confession, and experience sincere repentance. Christ himself said this: “Repent, and the Kingdom of Heaven will come near.” Only in this way can you become closer to God.
In order not to yawn, to be cheerful and strong in the temple, you need to start changing yourself, taking care of yourself.
It's not depression, lack of oxygen, suffocation, or a sick heart that's to blame, but ourselves.
Modern man is spiritually weak, and the unclean one, knowing this, sends sneezing, yawning, scabies, etc. upon him. Everyone tries to discourage him from the habit of going to services and reading the Gospel.
To get rid of bad influence, to get rid of demonic attacks, you should read: “Psalm 90”, the Jesus Prayer, or “Lord have mercy” many times.
Then no matter how hard they try to mislead you, confuse you, distract you, they will not succeed.
