Michael the Archangel is well known in Rus'. He often appeared to soldiers before important battles; this happened during the apparitions of the Mother of God; the heavenly military leader himself accompanied the Queen of Heaven. It is quite difficult to read prayers every day, but this is a strong protection against temptations and spiritual growth. So it's worth trying.
In general, Archangel Michael belongs to the middle rank in the upper hierarchy of heavenly powers, according to the teachings of the holy fathers. His duty is to transmit instructions to lower ranks. They, in turn, pass them on to people. Sometimes the Archangels appear themselves, but only to those who are so spiritually developed that they can withstand their appearance. We know from Scripture that the sight of angels frightens most people.
You should pray every day of the week in order to better perceive the subtle energy of the spiritual world, which is simply inaccessible to sinners. They themselves reject grace. However, the situation can be improved. Even short but regular exercises in communicating with God will bring a lot of benefits.
Prayers to the archangels have a very accessible content; they are brief, but express everything that is necessary. They were made up of spiritually gifted people. We must understand that verbosity is not always a sign of good prayer. In some cases, brevity is preferable.
Other Archangels are also mentioned in the Holy Scriptures:
- Gabriel - appeared to the Virgin Mary and other heroes of the Bible;
- Raphael - known for healing people;
- Uriel - enlightens the peoples, the name means “light”;
- Salaphiel - encourages prayer work;
- Jehudiel is the one who glorifies the Lord, he helps everyone who works for Christ, and not for profit;
- Barachiel - distributes God's blessings to everyone who plans a good undertaking.
All angels turn to the One Master so that he would have mercy on people, note their merits, and be lenient with their shortcomings. Since these are beings of a different order, they do not care about anything earthly. Therefore, they can provide protection for every day. You just need to avoid bad words and actions - this makes the angels move away from the person. By the way, many righteous people were honored to see them with their own eyes, for example, Seraphim of Sarov. It is believed that sinful people cannot see God’s servants.
A prayer to Michael the Archangel asks him to crush his enemies, and also to beg the Lord for protection. In the next appeal, believers ask to be delivered from temptations, because angels are able to penetrate people’s thoughts; there have been cases when they warned them against rash actions. Every day you should, at least briefly, pray to your Angel.

- Tuesday is the day of turning to Gabriel, who brought the joyful news of the coming birth of the Son of God. You can ask him for protection from diseases.
- On Wednesday they pray to Raphael, who can heal spiritual and physical ailments.
- On Thursday there is an appeal to Uriel, who is known for his fiery love for God, which is lacking in many modern people.
- Friday is the day of Selafiel, which can give contrition and concentration during prayer.
- Saturday - you need to ask Archangel Jehudiel to save you from laziness. Many would like to praise God, but habit gets in the way. The prayer of the heavenly patron can give zeal.
