... golden bowls filled with incense.....that are the prayers of the saints...... Revelation 5,8

your prayer is called a fragrance:

whereever..... however.... loud.... quietly... desperately.... happily.... consciously.... just as a feeling.... well thought of.... stammeringly....
it lands in a golden bowl beeing brought to the altar where incense is burnt!
WOW!


bowl filled with incense, 2006, all rights by: Deborah

Did you know that God especially ordained an angel to prepare the prayers? So, no matter how it feels, your prayer never just goes to the top of the ceiling!

An other angel, who had a golden censer, came and stood at the altar. He was given much incense to offer, with the prayers of all the saints, on the golden altar befor the throne. The smoke of the incense, together with the prayers of the saints, went up before God from the angel's hand. Revelation 8,3-4 (NIV)
