Tefillah for Yiras Shomayim and Parnassah:

On this topic, we can add the words of Rav Bunim of Peshischa zy”a (cited in Sefer Medrash Simcha). He says that if someone only davens for yiras shomayim, and not for parnassah, it is a sign that even his prayers for yiras shomayim were not uttered with devotion and pure intentions.

This is because it is impossible to have one and not the other. In order to have yiras shomayim, one needs to have sufficient parnassah.
