Well, in my church (and I would suppose it would be in any other as well), our pastors are the ones who verify it. Both have the gift of prophecy and one has the office of the prophet. Prophets are to judge other prophets, as I recall. Usually the man who prophecies the most in our church, asks the pastor if he can give a word.
How do you know the HS doesn’t reside in Quix. I don’t know him on a face to face basis but I do know him from FR and I’ve never doubted it. Other spirit-filled Christians can recognize the Holy Spirit, or should be able to,in others. He’s certainly given me much Godly wisdom.

Do you have, yourself, any evidence that such a thing is real? And do you know that this is by the power of the Holy Spirit rather than the great deceiver? The reason I ask is that satan’s most powerful weapon is his deceit. He will lay traps for all Christians and guide them in his ways. That is why I am so insistent that people really observe themselves and others when they claim that the Holy Spirit influences or guides them. That is also the aegis of the devil. Mere mortals may not know the difference.

I don’t. But I don’t know that He does. And I have no proofs that He does. The great deceiver may inhabit many and they may not know.
Bless you for your kind words. Alas, I measure up to your affirmations too little, imho.
Nevertheless, The Author and Finisher of my Faith and of me—is STILL ON THE JOB, Praise His Name. And He will present me before The Father blameless as He has promised to do.
Health and wholeness, Dear Sister . . . May God heal your kidneys or give you new ones via His Providence.
And may your son find deliverance and wholeness as well.
