Why pray?

God owes us nothing. We owe him everything

What’s the point of praying and asking him for anything if he’s not obligated to give us anything we ask for and he doesnt owe us anything?

If I pray for idk, a future wife, a car, a better job, why would or why should God listen to my requests in the first place? He doesnt owe me anything

God isn’t my genie or spiritual ATM, and there’s no guarantee of he would say yes. He might say no.
