Do you never ask your loved ones to pray for you? Of course, but I ask my living loved ones to pray for me to God the Father (Matthew 6:9, Ephesians 3:14) in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ (John 14: 13-14).
That is colossal difference. The Bible specifically warns about praying to anyone except God through His Son. That includes praying to dead people.

To the pagan, they are dead. To the Christian, they are alive in Christ.
And we ask them for their prayers, we do not pray to them.
