The following excerpt is taken from Taking Action Receiving and operating in the gifts and power of the Holy Spirit by Reinhard Bonnke:
The Inexplicable Miracle
Some miracles seem to bring more than one gift into play. For example, let me tell you about Mrs. Heidi Tufte of Norway. I gave a banquet in Oslo, and Mrs. Tufte attended. While I was speaking, the Lord said to me, “Rebuke paralysis.” I interrupted what I was saying and told the people that the Holy Spirit was telling me to rebuke paralysis. I did so in a few words and in the name of Jesus.
What I had not seen was that there was a woman at the back of that big hall in a wheelchair—Mrs. Tufte. The moment I had rebuked paralysis, something shot through her system, and she began “churning within her day and night.” About a week later she awoke one morning with strange sensations, which quite frightened her; life was flowing through her previously lifeless limbs.
She jumped out of bed and began to cry. Her husband wanted to support her, knowing her paralyzed state, but it was not necessary. “I am healed!” she exclaimed. Overcome with joy, they embraced and dropped down on their knees to give thanks and glory to God.
The news spread across Norway like wildfire, and Mrs. Tufte received flower bouquets from people rejoicing with her from across the land. To this day she leads a normal life, perfectly healed.
Unbelief can be ingenious in its arguments, but this type of miracle disposes of some of the so-called explanations invented to avoid giving glory to God. This healing was not by suggestion from me, since I was not present and had never spoken to her. Nor was it self-suggestion, for she was asleep when the healing life began to course through her body—it woke her up. It disposes of the idea that it was merely a natural recession; in fact, her paralysis was a genetic fault. It was not coincidence—for the healing to occur within a week of my prayer, after a lifetime of illness, is beyond the realms of the wildest coincidence. This was no case of wrong diagnosis or mind over matter.
In Africa, we in the Christ for All Nations team have seen sights that only the greatest power in heaven or earth could produce, perhaps greater than have ever been seen but not so great as will be seen. We have seen acres upon acres of people massed together—Muslim, animist, nominal Christian—touched by the Lord; surrendering to Him by thousands upon thousands; being healed; being baptized in the Spirit; giving up their fetishes, idols, stolen goods, and witchcraft emblems; and becoming vigorous witnesses to Christ. State presidents are converted, and Parliaments echo the cry, “Jesus saves!” The whole thing is a miracle—“the working of miracles,” not of one kind, but whatever miracle is needed to meet the crisis of man without God. It’s the miracle of souls redeemed by the preaching of the Word.
Compared to such tremendous scenes, what are such wonders as an axe head floating in water, fire from heaven, or walking on the water? God is not a sensationalist. He has one primary concern: people—their welfare and destiny. That interest has to be the measure of all greatness and power.

That same power that raised Jesus from the dead lives inside of us today
You are providing us with everything we need to fulfill the plan and purpose You have for us
Father, You are more than enough!
By faith, You are sending gifts from heaven today!
You are supplying every need according to Your riches in glory in Christ Jesus!
Increase, increase, increase!
Open up the windows of heaven, and pour out supernatural signs and wonders
Father, in Your Word, You said that You would provide every need and we call that forth!
Every supply will and shall be supplied in Jesus’ name!
There is more to be done, more souls to be won in these last days
You are the King of all Kings and the Lord of all Lords
We humble ourselves before You, Father
Thank You that we are children of the most high God!
Those gifts and supplies are waiting to be distributed
Many are lost, but they shall be found, many are sick, but they shall be healed
Many are poor, but they shall be made rich, wealthy and prosperous in Jesus’ name!
Lord, we lift up all those lost souls, and we ask You to set them free!
Thank You that You died for each and every one of them, Father
Break those chains of lies, false beliefs, and bondage
Show them Your love, Lord
We yield ourselves, and we ask for You to use us in any way that You can, Lord
Casting down all fear and torment!
Give us courage to walk out those plans You have set before us
Send laborers into that harvest field, Father
It is not Your will that any should perish, but that all would come to know You
You are the one and only true God!
Holy Spirit help us in our weakness, come in and pray through us, Lord
Let the light of Your love break through!
Pleading the blood of Jesus over the laborers
There go the laborers into the harvest field!
They will bring forth those lost souls and they will come to know You, Lord
Calling in the finances to further the kingdom of God!
Give the laborers boldness and courage to preach the Gospel of Christ Jesus!
We lift our voices before heaven today, and we know that there are greater days ahead!
Holy Spirit, thank You for residing on the inside of us, we open ourselves up for more of You in our lives
There are greater signs, wonders, and miraculous things to come
We expect to walk in it and be distributors of Your love to those in need
