It's happened to me twice this week. Once regarding a ministry decision that I got the answer before I could sit down to pray about it. Another time, God gave me a computer I didn't need. Before I could pray about what to do with it, a soldiers family came to me needing one to video-chat with him while he's deployed. Any other believers ever experience this? Serious answers only, please.

You don't have to have your head bowed, your hands folded, your eyes closed, and be speaking to pray. You could do so just by pondering such a thing, God is omniscient. He answered your prayers.
Matthew 6
And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. 8Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.

I have... I suffered from a very painful shoulder for several months... I was in a group of men who were praying for another man who was seriously ill... within less than an hour I had absolutly no pain in the shoulder and it has not returned... I did not pray for it at that time any had not made it a personal prayer... I was a new Christian of only a few months and it was my first experience with such an action by God... I had been asked just that day to assist with a building project in the church. I had declined because I knew I could not do it because of my shoulder... the day after the prayer time I was on a ladder tearing out the celing of the sactuary and not haveing a bit of pain...
on two occasions since I have had people come up to me and aske me if I needed prayer for a specific problem, which they named, but could not have posably known I had as they were total strangers... both time those prayers were answered. Both times they told me they had felt a strong call to aproch me and they felt a crtainty that it was the right thing to do

Oh yeah. It's awesome when God does that! I was wondering about whether or not I should volunteer to teach Sunday School once, and before I even gave it much thought, my pastor's wife asked me if I wanted to teach! That was so cool! There have been other things, too, where God has just opened doors for me. (His such a good Father that way.)

Yes. God is able to do abundantly above all we could ask or think.
Also, in the future, God will answer always before we ask. God knows our hearts & our needs and knows what we need before we ask.

God's actions are not administered according to your prayers.

That's what I think every time a church I've never been to or seen burns to the ground.
