Answer:
I heard it many times but I haven't really pondered on that. We can hear these following sentences in our daily lives:
May God bless you.
May God be pleased with you.
May God accept your prayers.
But why do we use "May" at the beginning of the sentence? Apparently, it doesn't make the sentence a question but more polite and respectful towards the God maybe? I cannot tell I heard this structure in any other sentence but religious ones. Which grammar rule does it belong to? And how do we use it in different forms?
