No. God is "the Alpha and the Omega...who is, and who was, and who is to come." (Rev. 1:8). Psalm 66:3 states that God's power is awesome, and that His power is so great, His enemies cringe before Him. Jesus also points out in Matthew 6:5-14 that no intermediary to God is necessary - He teaches us how to pray directly to God, between only you and him. In fact, the Lord's power is so awesome and unparalleled, He knows what you need before you ask Him (Matt. 6:8).

What does a intermediary do?
A Intermediary is the same thing as a mediator. I Timothy 2:5, "For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus". A mediator is a connecting link between two parties who want to come to an agreement. In the case of I Timothy 2:5 talking about Salvation Jesus Christ was the connecting link between God and men. Jesus was the perfect mediator as he possessed the nature and attributes of God (He was the Son of God and God Himself) and He (Jesus) was fully a Human Being. Jesus was the God/Man and so was the perfect Mediator. He mediates peace between God and any man who comes to God through Jesus Christ.
