Does God really exist? I have been praying to God for one particular issue but am not getting answer, instead the situation gets messy. I am even tired and I am beginning to lose hope that pray truly works. I am beginning to lose trust that God exists and all that. Please correct if am wrong.
May I suggest another approach@ OP. Rather than continue to do the same old thing that has not worked for you. Why not decide now to do what God has said from the beginning that you do first? Begin obeying His every commandment.

Jesus Christ brought with Him the new, simpler New Covenant, with only 46 commandments or what you might also call life principles for His followers to live by, and What did He command that we do with them? Obey them!
When? Every moment of our every day.
How? Begin with the ones that He stipulated are necessary to becoming born again(becoming His follower), and then apply the rest where your neighbor(enemies included are concerned).
Where are these commandments/Life principles found? In the Gospels. I particularly love the record in the book of Matthew. Beginning from Chapter 4, Jesus Christ gives the first clue into knowing what we need, while He was being tempted by Satan. Jesus responded by saying, "Man shall not live by bread alone but by every word that comes out of the mouth of God". Why is this important? It is because it is only by ingesting and obeying the Word of God as it is written in the Bible, not the vomit digested and then regurgitated by your pastors/preachers/prophets/GOs, etc. , will the power of God be revealed.
Another clue that comes later is revealed when Jesus proclaims, "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father, except through me". By telling us this, I believe what Jesus meant was that the only way to get anything from God is by obeying Him, the New Covenant. Jesus stated that those who love Him do so by obeying His every commandment. So, without obedience, it is impossible to get at what the Father has to give... Without obedience, it is impossible to please God (Faith being a collection of all the works done in obedience to the commandments of God and Trust in Him)... none of those blessings will come to us until we obedience becomes second nature, through passionate (serving God with all your heart, mind, body and soul) worship/service of Him, the Father.

In subsequent chapters, Jesus Christ goes on to express the details of the blessings, commandments, curses, eligibility requirements, and the seal of the New Covenant. As you begin spending time reading and obeying what you read, you will begin to see God Himself show up in your situations. That is what the gospel is about. The power is in the very words of the WORD OF GOD Himself.

So as to your question on whether God exists? I can tell you that He does. He is not what pastors/preachers/prophets/GOs yap about from their many pulpits. That is why you need to become like a child (as Jesus commanded) and seek God out for yourself and you will find that He has always been there waiting for you to begin trusting, and obeying Him and not the words of preachers/pastors e.t.c.

Bro. First of all God knows what u want or need already. Just that he might not do it the way u want it.
But he will do it. Just have to trust him and be patient.

Sometimes the things we struggle to get are not meant for us

While that may seem the case, that is not true as far as God is concerned.
Did Jesus Christ lie when He said," ask anything in my name, and I will do it for you, that the Father may be glorified through the son"? undecided
