There aren't any verses in the bible that teaches one can buy miracles and gifts from God. They're always mercifully, graciously, and freely given (James 1:17).
There was a time where I believed that you could, but by the grace of God, He saved me and brought me out of that garbage.
It's wrong to teach people that God's goodness can be bought and especially with perishable things, such as money. Remember what Peter said to Simon the Magician in Acts 8:14-23.
Salvation is a gift from God (John 4:10, Romans 3:24 & 6:23, Ephesians 2:8). The Holy Spirit is given as a gift to repentant forgiven believers from God (Acts 2:38 & 11:16-17). Healings and miracles are gifts from God (read the NT gospels of all the times He healed the blind, the sick, the lame and fed thousands of people with a couple fish and some bread).
And yet, there are false teachers and liars who fleece and prey upon people in telling them that if they give a special seed offering amount (usually, they specify the dollar amount based on the book and verse in the bible they're twisting to no end), God will do this and that for them and they'll have their harvest. These are the false teachers the book of Jude warns about. Watch out for them. Their god is their own appetite and they care nothing for the sheep. Why does one need to give to your, or anyone's, ministry in order to get God's blessings? This is a lie straight out of hell and all who teach this will answer to God for it. In that day, what will they say to Him? "Lord, Lord, did we not perform miracles in Your name and did we not cast out demons in Your name?" And the Lord will say to them "Depart from Me; I never knew you, you workers of lawlessness" (Matthew 7:21-23).
