As a Christian, I would say nothing, but listen prayerfully with the scriptures in mind. Depending on the guidance and leading of the Holy Spirit in me and whether any scriptures were violated, I might ask the voice some key questions concerning Jesus Christ, like is he the son of God come in human flesh and did he raise bodily from the grave. The NT says any spirit that denies who Jesus is is of antichrist. If the answer is scriptural I would then likely worshipfully fall on my knees and listen for what God has come in such a manner for.
If in my mind I would determine that scripture was being violated and I decide that this is an evil spirit, I would then rebuke the spirit in the name of Jesus.
I would not necessarily ask for any miracle, for Satan's demons are powerful miracle workers also, and pose as "angels of light."

Re: Test the spirits before humping a cow
P.S. Apparently, satan can appear with angels of light, but if he goes against the scripture he is not who he says he is, hence "test the spirits".
Hi brother Mike. This's cool. As I was typing my post, you were evidently posting yours. We're on the same tract here.

As I remember the various Biblical accounts where humans encountered God or his angel, words like 'tremble, fear, awe, weakness, temporary blindness, falling down and worship' were prominent in the account. It's like if it's God you know it. Don't expect such an encounter. The way it works is you seek him and draw near to him and he responds by coming to you via his spirit and his word. He reveals himself to those who humbly seek. Jesus said, "I stand at the door and knock. Whoever opens the door, I will come in and sup with him and he with me." Revelation 3:20
