Charma, do you believe that Jesus is the Son of God? Is that the God you are praying to? Because Jesus said, "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life; no man comes to the Father except through Me." So if you expect answers to your prayers, it's gotta be in Jesus' Name, not "God" in general. Also, is what you're asking for according to the Bible which is the Word of God, or is it a selfish prayer? If it's in the Word of God, you can count on the fact that He wants to give you your request. If it's not in your best interest, He will give you something better.
