Clueless: it seems your friend is well aware that God either can't or won't do anything that can't happen anyway. In other words, stuff is happening, and she is randomly labelling some of that stuff as "gods work" and retrofitting it to her prayers.
Maybe ask her to stop praying to God for a week, and instead start praying to a door knob. She can do exactly the prayers she would have done to God, ie. stuff that can happen anyway. Then she can see which prayers get "answered", thus proving the magical powers of the door knob.
