Historically, the prayer rope would typically have 100 knots, although prayer ropes with 50 or 33 knots can also be found in use today. Hermits in their cells may have prayer ropes with as many as 300 or 500 knots in them. The prayer rope is symbolizing the flock of Christ though in modern times other materials are used also. The traditional color of the rope is black (symbolizing mourning for one's sins), with either black or colored beads. When praying, the user normally holds the prayer rope in the left hand, leaving the right hand free to make the Sign of the Cross. When not in use, the prayer rope is traditionally wrapped around the left wrist so that it continues to remind one to pray without ceasing. If this is impractical, it may be placed in the (left) pocket, but should not be hung around the neck or suspended from the belt. The reason for this is humility: one should not be ostentatious or conspicuous in displaying the prayer rope for others to see. Lord in your soul, your thoughts, and your heart, saying always: "Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me a sinner." Orthodoxy regards the prayer rope as the sword of the Spirit, because prayer which is heartfelt and inspired by the grace of the Holy Spirit is a weapon that defeats the Devil.

Still AMAZING but… don’t think about wearing it on your wrist. Key chain 100%. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ perfect *by K***E on August 23, 2025* beautiful!! yes it is small but it can squeeze onto your wrist. i see men trying, definitely wont work for you guys! read reviews before buying! i love this! fits me perfect and i barely feel it on! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Looks small but stretched to fit perfectly *by L***A on August 5, 2022* Love them! At first glance it does look extremely tiny but after watching the videos in the product description of how it stretches and eventually will shrink back down, I was able to fit it over mine and my husband’s (who is a typical guy with large hands and wrists). As far as the durability, there has been no wear and tear to either of ours after a month and he works doing manual labor daily. We will definitely be buying some for the rest of the family ## Frequently Bought Together - Blessed Greek Christian Orthodox Handmade Prayer Rope from Mt.
