James 4:3 New International Version (NIV)
3 When you ask, you do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasures.
What this verse is stating is that, when you ask, you do not receive because you ask with wrong motives, so that you may be satisfied for the wrong motives.
Mark 11:24 English Standard Version (ESV)
24 Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.
To summarize, this verse is saying that whatever you inquire the Lord in prayer, have faith in Him and be patient then it shall be yours. Otherwise, you won't receive what you get in prayer. Praying means to give thanks to the Lord for what He gave and done in your life and to make requests for yourself and others.
Praying means to ask requests from God either for to make for people who seek a prayer from you or pray for requests for yourself. You can also give thanks to God for what He done in your life.
