Think of the last thing you prayed about — were you devoted to your desire or to God? Was your determination to get some gift of the Spirit for yourself or to get to God? 'For your Father knows the things you have need of before you ask Him' (Matthew 6:8). The reason for asking is so you may get to know God better. 'Delight yourself also in the Lord, and He shall give you the desires of your heart' (Psalm 37:4). We should keep praying to get a perfect understanding of God Himself.
