I think there may be another aspect to this. Yes, you have to have faith. You also have to be serving the will of God and not your own. So it's actually God's power and will that is performing the action. Jesus said many times that he was doing the will of his Father and not his own.

We have the power to become as powerful as our body will possibly allow.

And ask yourself what you would use that power for? If you are using it for self interest then you run the risk of pride and getting trapped in delusion. At a certain stage you let go of all the spiritual experiences and abilities for this reason alone. Many saints have actually prayed to God for him to take away all their spiritual gifts and experiences so that the may know him more fully through self dinial.

I'm working through it anyway. Slowly healing.
