Then tell me this: What is the bolded, if not the most humble prayer possible? It is for worship and praise, and it is superior to all possible prayers that one may think of, since your opinion is inferior to God's. God knows what is best for you, and one may not interrupt His 'mysterious ways'.

The bolded is not a humble request, it's a demand. It's saying "if I deserve it, give it to me". Much different than "if I deserve it, then may you give it to me?" One is a question. One is a statement.

 

Yes, it is completely humble as it suggests that God's opinion is flawless. And on top of that, it wouldn't make any sense to ask God to act against His own opinion, or for God to act against it...
