The author devoted this article to the issue of preparing a homily on the basis of euchological texts. He found the inspiration in the Homiletical Directorate published by the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments in 2015. This inspiration was provoked by the impression that they were given too little space in the above-mentioned directorate, especially the possible methods to be used in a view of the preparation of the homily. The directorium talks that to the spectrum inspiring homiletic creativity include, in addition to the readings from the Bible, typically liturgical texts, and above all, euchological formulas, nevertheless a more accurate reading of the document provokes an impression that the attention focused on biblical readings was definitely dominant in. The proposed method is developed from the patristic exegesis of the spiritual meanings of the Holy Scriptures lectio divina. In this method it is about biblical texts that belong to the canon of inspired books. Euchological formulas belong to an open catalog of texts. This is the reason of the thesis that the lectio divina method can be used as a model in the work on prayer formulas, still one should reach the methods typical of liturgical hermeneutics. The content of the study proposes making use of, while working on a homily on the basis of the euchological texts, the historical-critical and the linguistic methods. The combination of these methods allows a view of how the methodological steps correspond with each other, and thus confirm the rationality of the conducted argument, and the justification for the need to use adequate methods.
