While there is no biblical verse which explicitly states, “You shall not pray to angels,” it is abundantly clear that we are not to pray to angels. This certainly flies in the face of Catholic sensibilities as
praying to saints (dead people) and angels is a common practice.
Ultimately, prayer is an act of worship. And, just as angels reject our worship (Revelation 22:8-9), so they would also reject our prayers. Offering our worship or prayer to anyone but God is idolatry. There are also several practical and theological reasons why praying to angels is wrong. Christ Himself never prayed to anyone but the Father.
