Great Sunnah Dua for Love of God:

Sunnah Dua for the ULTIMATE Love of God:

اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْ حُبَّكَ أََحَبَّ الأَشْيَاءِ إِلِىْ ، وَاجْعَلْ خَشْيَتَكَ أَخْوَفَ الأَشْيَاءِ عِنْدِيْ وَاقْطعْ غَنِّي حَاجَاتِ الدُّنْيَا بِالشُّوْقِ إِلى لِقَائِكَ ، وَ إِذا أَقْرَرْتَ أَعْيُنَ أَهْلِ الدُّنْيَا مِنْ دُنْيَا هُمْ ، فَاقْرِرْ عَيْنِيْ مِنْ عِبَادَتِك


Allahummaj'al hubbaka a-habbal ashyaa'i illayya, waj'al khashyataka akhwafa ashyaa'i 'indi, waq-ta 'anni haajaatid-dunya bish shawqi illa liqaa'ika, wa idha aq-rarta 'a'yuna ahlid-dunya min dunnyahum, fa aqrir 'aynee min 'ibaadatika.

O Allah! Make my love for You the most beloved thing to me, and my fear for You the most fearful thing to me, and remove from me all worldly needs and wants by instilling a passion for meeting You, and when You have given the people of the world the pleasures of their world, make the coolness of my eyes (pleasure) in worshipping You.
(Reported in Kanzul ummal, on the authority of Abi Malik)

How to add value to our Good Deeds:

Dhikrullah makes good deeds better:

The most excellent good deed is the one that is performed with fervent Dhikrullah (remembrance of God). The best person among those who observe fast, give wealth in charity or go on pilgrimage is the one who does excessive Dhikr of Allah during the performance of these good deeds.

Ibn Abi Dunya related that the Holy Prophet ﷺ was asked, ‘which of the visitor to the mosque is the best’?
The prophet ﷺ replied, "The one who remembered God most".
"Which warrior is the best?"
"Who remembered God most".
"Which pilgrim is the best?"
"Who remembered God most".
"Which worshipper is the best?"
"Who remembered God most".
After that the narrator Abu Bakr (R.A.) said, "Those who remembered God have taken away all the good".
-From 'al Wabil as sayyib' by Ibn AlQayyim R.A.
