During his lifetime, Saint Nicholas  he tamed storms, healed the sick, predicted the future, and more than once appeared hundreds of kilometers away to those in need of his help. He tirelessly cared for the spiritual education of the flock entrusted to him by God in the province of Lycia, prayerfully supporting, helping, saving, while performing great deeds of mercy. He could stop the executioner's hand during an execution, throw gold to a poor father for his daughters' wedding, and heal a dying person with prayer.

The “Rule” explains that the Mother of God and other saints carry the prayer addressed to them first to God and from God they send mercy to man. But to Nikola “mercy was given in advance,” that is, all his requests were fulfilled by God in advance, so he answers them immediately, for which he is called an “ambulance.”
  
On the back of the icon is a prayer from the service to the appearance of the Velikoretsk Icon of St. Nicholas: “Being before the Throne of God, pray diligently, wisely, unceasingly for all of us, wonderful Nicholas.”
