The ministries that I listen too never ask for money in the way being suggested.
They often show the work they are doing and ask people to join with them and support it, that is very different.
Everything costs money and it isnt wrong to ask brethren to help support the work of God.
It also is 'scriptural' to sow expecting a harvest, the whole Bible is full of exactly those principles, what farmer would throw his seed into the ground and not expect a crop?
God wants us to do that, but He wants us to do into the things that He leads, and not into what we think.
