Revelation 8:4

And the smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, ascended before God from the angel’s hand.

• ·        Prayer and incense are often associated in the Bible.  (DG)

• ·        The idea is that just as incense is precious, pleasant, and drifts to heaven, so do our prayers.  (DG)

Exodus 30:8  And when Aaron lights the lamps at twilight, he shall burn incense on it, a perpetual incense before the LORD throughout your generations.

Leviticus 16:12  Then he shall take a censer full of burning coals of fire from the altar before the LORD, with his hands full of sweet incense beaten fine, and bring it inside the veil.
