Grant my request from You to keep away all the evil

"Grant my request from You to keep away all the evil"

Because of my request from You, keep this away from me and stop this from coming to me. Stop what? Keep away all the evil of this world and the Hereafter. Why do we ask God so extensively and continuously? Well, because it’s free to try! So, we ask God for all of these. Whatever is according to divine expediency and is not against our own interest in these things, the Almighty God will give us.
