Brenda's peanut-sized root balls on prayer plant are root-knot nematode galls (Meloidogyne incognita), a serious pest.
Seal plant AND soil in ziplock bag; trash immediately. Do not compost. Nematodes spread to other plants and survive in soil.
This nematode infects dozens of ornamentals (African violet, azalea, begonia, etc.) and vegetables. Indoor warmth allows year-round reproduction. One infected plant can contaminate your entire collection.
