We get "the cart before the horse" ... we get our priorities out-of-order ... and we BLAME God for not answering our prayers!
Matthew 6:33 says that we're to "Seek 1st the kingdom of God and His righteousness, then all these things will be added unto you."
What is a God-kind-of-righteousness? Well, it's more than doing the "right thing"...it's more than having "right conduct"....it's 1st and foremost having a "right relationship" with our Lord.
Matthew 5:6 tells us that "Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness...". Blessed here means "highly favored."
We want things--more $$$, more riches, more fame, more sex! But God desires those who have a heart after Him!
SEEK Him 1st today and pray this way: Lord, I know you're watching over me today. And I am feeling truly blessed. For no matter what I pray for, YOU always know what is best.
