The point of prayer is not for God to give you what you want. Prayer is for worshiping and praising the Creator. When you ask for something, the point is to A) name your request, but also to B) ask for the strength to handle the situation if God says, "No". He doesn't say "No" because he doesn't like or love us, but because he wants us to rely on Him and not on ourselves or earthly things.
