There are a few passages that support wealth in the Gospels:

Psalm 12:1, 3Blessed is the man that feareth the Lord .... Wealth and riches shall be in his house.
Proverbs 15:6
In the house of the righteous is much treasure.

I do think LOA and scripture are very much not compatible. The whole crux of LOA is conscious self creation.
You could take a figurative reading of scripture and say when God says "no" to a request that really means you have a negative energy blocking your creation process. That type of interpretation seems to go against most Christian doctrine though.

The spirit of creation is intact in both schools of thought but ultimately are radically different. I think you explained that well in the article, pointing out that God can choose not to answer a request/manifestation.

Deism is compatible with LOA, but Christianity isn't compatible with Deism is it?
