(The apostle Paul is praying for the Ephesians) that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, 18 the eyes of your understanding[c] being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, 19 and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power
Bruce Wilkinson is in Montgomery this week for the "You Were Born for This" conference at Frazer. His book by the same name is centered around the concept of everyday miracles. While that may seem really "out there" to some of us, if we really believe that God has created each of us and given us a purpose, a reason for being here on this earth, then it's vital that we realize what that purpose is - and I do think it involves being used of the Lord to deliver answers to prayer, even answers that cannot be explained by any other means except by the supernatural hand of God.
God wants us to think supernaturally - that's the spiritual wavelength on which He operates. If we're walking int he spirit, then we can be more sensitized to how He desires to work - as Ephesians 1 says, that the eyes of our understanding may be enlightened. If we see with spiritual eyes, we will be equipped to be used of the Lord to be a human delivery system for heavenly blessings. But we have to know how and when the Spirit is working in and around us! If we desire it, then we can trust the Lord to show it to us.
