It's not surprising that the enemy spends a lot of time and effort

counterfeiting

THAT OF GOD WHICH IS MOST POSTENT AND EFFICACIOIUS.

Certainly the enemy works hard to pollute, distract, pervert, sideline, make askew that true I Cor 12-14 Operations of Holy Spirit in our era.

But Holy Spirit will win in the end.

The masses of Islamic conversions via DREAMS, VISIONS, VISITATIONS OF THE RISEN LORD are all Holy Spirit operations. Denial of them doesn't change or tarnish the fact of them a microgram's worth.

God loves to confound the wise with HIS FOOLISHNESS.

I've always thought that the Pentecostal sides and flavors of authentic Christianity were His prime examples of that.

And, in my experience, it's been the unknown, no-name sorts of "insignificant," truly humble prayer warriors, prophetesses etc. who've had the most powerful Holy Spirit impacts on my life and ministry.

The naysayers can rant, pontificate, excoriate, rationalize away, deny, play rubber Bible day in year out and Holy Spirit will just keep on doing all the powerful things He does so well.

And, eternity will reveal it all in good time. Then, the mockery etc. will be met with thunderous silence as the humiliated submit to God's ways, God's priorities and God's Spirit.

There is, however, a very serious hazard to ascribing to satan, or the enemy, things that are truly Holy Spirit birthed.
