Like a physical arrow, these short prayers are quick and powerful!

Arrow prayers are short prayers that only take a few seconds to pray—they are “shot” up to God in a moment. They help to penetrate darkness or fear and direct our thoughts quickly to God, especially when we feel particularly weak, vulnerable, or scared. The devil hates these kinds of prayers because they reveal the faith and hope of the one praying them.

Anything can become an arrow prayer, such as the words “Thy will be done,” which we know are the words Jesus Christ gave us to pray in the Our Father.
