The Revelation to St. John, Capter 5, verse 8:
"The twenty four elders before the Lamb ...holding golden bowls of incense which are the prayers of the saints?
But I suppose those prayers could be only prayers of adoration, rather than intercession-- but from the beginning the Church has welcomed people praying for each other, including the invocation of the prayers of the departed.

Just pray to God yourself, in the powerful name of Jesus

There is only one way to be acceptable to God, and that is to humble oneself and commit one's life to Him in Christ. There are no easy routes that preserve human pride and self-will.

Of course not. Scripture is quite clear about this: ' ... for there is one God, and one mediator also between God and men, the man Christ Jesus (1Timothy 2:5).
