Jesus said, "Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours. And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive him, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins." Mark 11:24-25 (NIV)
When you pray and ask for something, you must believe that you have already received it. This was one of the lessons that Jesus taught His disciples during the week prior to His crucifixion.
When we ask for something that gives God glory, we will receive it if we believe it. But don't ask for anything while you are harboring ill will against your brother because of a wrong done to you.
