Correlation only implies causation when you can show a direct link between the two things. The higher the temperature of something, the hotter it will be because we know that temperature is a measure of "hotness".
Correlating asking the universe for stuff with receiving stuff has no direct link. The correlation I would suspect is also non-existent. People get stuff all the time without asking the universe for it.
