## Resource

In this sermon, we focus on the importance of our motives when we pray. I pointed out that God doesn't answer prayers that are made with a sense of entitlement or with wrong motives. Instead, we should approach God humbly, asking according to His will rather than demanding our wants. I also touched on the issue of selfish consumption, where people ask for things out of selfish motives. We are urged to examine our motives when we pray and to ensure that we are not asking for things out of selfish desires.
