Revelation 8:3-4
Another angel with a golden censer came and stood at the altar; he was given a great quantity of incense to offer with the prayers of all the saints on the golden altar that is before the throne.

And the smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, rose before God from the hand of the angel.

LOL First of all the “saints” are all those who have accepted Christ as savior so ALL prayers are before the Father when prayed in Jesus name since the rending of the veil. Secondly you will notice that it’s the “from the hand of the angel” that the prayers rose not from the “saints” themselves. The Catholic meme that “saints” in heaven some how have better access is a man made concept not true to scripture.
