God or not?

I had a great talk today about revivals and other moves or so-called moves of God. Lots of people are getting worked up over what is happening down in Lakeland, FL. I amm personally connected to these types of services because I met Jesus in a real way for the first time at a revival service like the one in Lakeland. However, that does not speak to eveything that happened there. The great thing about God is that He IS and He can do whatever wherever. He will save those who call on Him. He will heal those who pray the prayer of faith. He answers the prayers of the righteous. But where there are people, there are bound to be fakes. We are emotional people who can let that get the best of us. There are still some weirdos among us. That's okay. We just have to walk in love, led by truth, understanding that God will not be mocked and we all will reap what we sow. I heard a preacher say that wherever there is a circus...the clowns are bound to show up eventually.
So test the spirits. Speak the truth in love. Know what the Bible says. Give God the glory for genuine healing and salvations. And let Him fight the battle with those who would abuse His name and their positions.
