Miracles, healing, tongues, and the interpretation of tongues were temporary sign gifts limited to the apostolic age and have, therefore, ceased.

Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the Lord delivereth him out of them all. - Psalm 34:19

Hmmm.... Did I hear the word all? And again in...

Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. - Romans 8:37
Wouldn't you agree that the Scriptures are often paradoxical and filled with tension?

Incorrect-it's not God's "business" to performed what you have prayed.
I will cry unto God most high; unto God that performeth all things for me. - Psalm 57:2

PSALMS—NOTE ON 57:2 God Most High. God is transcendent, elevated far above
his creation and all powerful. fulfills his purpose for me. God’s transcendence
(v. 2a) never removes him from intimate involvement in his peoples’ lives.

If E = mc2 then we can divide and conclude that...

Mass (m) = Energy (E/c2) --- Making this eternal stuff

And there are three varieties...

Natural E/c2 - All mass is basically cooled plasma --- And bang! Back to plasma!
Mental E/c2 - Mentally, A mathematical formula, and a mind to study these things
Spiritual E/c2 - E (motivation, warmth, love) / c2 (faith, hope, charity, joy)

I believe God has the mindset to perform all things I am willing to believe him for. Naturally, mentally, and spiritually. There are those who have never experienced the wonders of energy and light to their wonderful extents. The opposite of E/c2 would be z (absolute zero)/ d (darkness)...

Natural z/d - Nothing, empty space.
Mental z/d - Again nothing but empty space. The terrible mind.
Spiritual z/d - z (laziness, coldness, hatred) / d (fear, despair, greed, sorrow)

What can we do with those who walk in darkness (z/d) and have no light (E/c2)?

Who is among you that feareth the Lord, that obeyeth the voice of his servant, that walketh in darkness, and hath no light? let him trust in the name of the Lord, and stay upon his God. - Isaiah 50:10

So I will choose to stay in faith regardless whether my prayers are immediately answered or no.

Ag moeder! Oh my--yes and so will I choose to remain in the faith whether my prayers are answered or not.
Can two walk together lest they agree? I think not.

Of course you know better.
That's right. Because The Word is God. The Word became flesh,Yeshua-Jesus,and dwelt among us.

Therefore,when someone claims The Word says miracles and other acts of God are done away,ceased,after the Apostolic age they're wrong.

Because they don't know what they're talking about.

Because they don't know The Word and Apostles are still here.

Miracles do not require your approval for them to exist.

In response to the OP:

Gifts in the Holy Spirit's Day (following the Lord's) will be meaning (impossible to know but by God), insight (impossible to follow but by the Lord) and trust (as does not depart from Wisdom).
