Should Christians Pray for God to Remember Them for Good?

Scripture records four prayers from Nehemiah that essentially have the same basic idea—that God would remember him for good:

Neh 5:19 Think upon me, my God, for good, according to all that I have done for this people.

Neh 13:14 Remember me, O my God, concerning this, and wipe not out my good deeds that I have done for the house of my God, and for the offices thereof.

Neh 13:22 And I commanded the Levites that they should cleanse themselves, and that they should come and keep the gates, to sanctify the sabbath day. Remember me, O my God, concerning this also, and spare me according to the greatness of thy mercy.

Neh 13:31 And for the wood offering, at times appointed, and for the firstfruits. Remember me, O my God, for good.

Should Christians pray for God to remember them for good?
