A few days ago, I posted about the efficacy of Holy Water.
Here is a great article showing that indeed, there is a change of molecular structure in water after it is blessed.

“The true nature of water has its destiny in the salvation of man and the world. The blessing of waters doesn’t “make bad water good”. It restores the water to its original state. The prayer at the blessing of water causes the revelation of the true ‘nature’ and ‘destiny’ of water, and thus of the world. By being restored through the blessing to its proper function water becomes again a means of communion with God. Christ in His baptism purified the nature of the waters. He came to redeem not only human beings but, through them, the entire material created world.
Here’s water from different sources usually used by people. Take a close look at the water structure.
During the blessing of Holy Water a great miracle is performed. The Holy Spirit, coming down upon the water, changes its natural properties. It again becomes incorrupt, not spoiling, remaining transparent and fresh for a long time. This Holy Water receives the grace to heal illnesses, to drive away demons and every evil power, to preserve people and their dwellings from danger, to sanctify various objects whether for church or home use. Therefore, Orthodox Christians with reverence drink Holy Water — a great Agiasma (holy thing), as the Greeks call it.
The presence of Holy Spirit invoked through reading of special prayers totally changes the water structure itself. Here’s crystals of water from the same sources (as shown above) after it was blessed.
