Hi there

The scripture you are talking about is in Matthew, don't become confused, read it and pray about it, God is actually quite vivid and clear in His word, we don't even need to give our own interpretation, He clearly says if you ask, you will receive it.

Matthew 7:6-8

6"Do not give dogs what is sacred; do not throw your pearls to pigs. If you do, they may trample them under their feet, and then turn and tear you to pieces.

Ask, Seek, Knock

7"Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. 8For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.

To further think about this issue you could also consider this

2 Corinthians 9:6-7
6Remember this: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously. 7Each man should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.

I will somewhat agree with Tera, but bear in mind every prayer recorded in the new testament attempts to align itself with God's will. If you think that you are skilled at directing, and that you could truly do something that glorifies God by doing so, then I believe he would answer this prayer based on the verses tera presented.
