God Answers Prayer to Glorify Himself

God knows your need before you ask.
Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him. (Matthew 6:8 ESV)

God answers prayers that are asked according to His will.
And this is the confidence that we have toward him, that if we ask anything according to his will he hears us. (1 John 5:14 ESV)

God answers our prayers to glorify Himself.
And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. (John 14:13 KJV)

Therefore, God answers prayer that are prayed according to His will which is to glorify His Name. When God is glorified, we benefited.
