First heaven is outside of time of space, so if God wills it a saint can hear anything he wants them to at any time. That is what happens when you are in union with the one true God.

Second read Revelation. The bowls of sweet smelling incense are the prayers of the faithful. Why would they be presenting the prayers to God? Because the faithful asked the saints to pray to God for them.

Lastly just do an internet search on why Catholics ask saints in heaven to pray for them, and stop rehashing the old canards.

Post #12 says it all, unless you do not believe that all scripture is “God-breathed”.

“ That is what happens when you are in union with the one true God.

Chapter and verse?

“ Why would they be presenting the prayers to God? Because the faithful asked the saints to pray to God for them.”

No where does it say anyone prayed to a saint. That is an assumption you are making.

Best.

Better, show us in Scripture where believers on this planet are ever enjoined to pray TO created beings.
