Does devotion and humility to God in prayer contradict God's love for the strong believer?

Allah loves the strong believer, and strength here means determination in matters of the hereafter. This does not contradict submission and humility to Allah; rather, the strong believer is more submissive. For servitude (Ubudiyyah) is the perfection of humility and submission, coupled with the perfection of love and glorification. Allah described His Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, as "His servant" in various places to show the honor of this status. And he, peace be upon him, was the most perfect in faith and the strongest among people. Allah has praised the believers and mentioned among their characteristics their humility (khushū') in prayer.
