How can I stop asking God for material things and let go of wanting more?

Nishkam bhakti: make God's happiness the goal

The principle of nishkam bhakti, devotion free of desire, is to ask God for neither material gratification nor liberation. Instead, we make his happiness the goal of our loving devotion.

This brings us to the principle of nishkam bhakti, where we seek neither bhukti nor mukti. We ask God neither for material gratification nor for liberation from material bondage.
