Let us never forget how majestic, mighty, powerful, glorious, and worthy our God is to be praised. Sometimes we ask for so many things and get stressed out and worried and pray for Him to deal with our problems continuously, but never stop to praise Him. He WANTS us to depend on Him and to ask for needs and desires; however, He DESERVES our endless praises.
[Psalms 9:1] I will praise thee, O LORD, with my whole heart; I will shew forth all thy marvellous works.[2] I will be glad and rejoice in thee: I will sing praise to thy name, O thou most High.[3] When mine enemies are turned back, they shall fall and perish at thy presence.
Rather than begging for prayers to be answered, praise Him for the answer you KNOW He is going to bring. Rejoice in trials. Praise Him in the storms. Be glad in the Lord because His joy is our strength.
[Psalms 16:8] I have set the LORD always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.[9] Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth: my flesh also shall rest in hope.[10] For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.[11] Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.
No matter what problems you are facing, no matter how many defeats you seem to be having in this present world, you have victory in Jesus. If you never win another battle or if it seems God never answers another prayer request, He is STILL worthy to be praised because He has given us the ultimate victory- salvation. Remember Job, when all of life fails around you and everything falls apart, don't curse God. He is still your all in all.
