Ask God to Give You a Revelation and He will!

Going back to the beginning, in the garden of Eden, whose at fault for eating the forbidden fruit? Some people say it's the woman's fault, and some blame it solely on the man. Well they are both kinda wrong. In Genesis 2, God made Adam and placed him in the garden. God told Adam that he could eat from every tree except for the one in the middle of the garden, the tree of knowledge of good and evil. Adam had a revelation from God. It was his revelation. God spoke this to him. Then later on in the same chapter, God puts Adam to sleep and creates Eve. Now God walked and talked with both Adam and Eve in the garden, but no where does it say that God told Eve the same thing He told Adam. That was Adam's revelation from God, and while I'm sure Adam told Eve not to mess with that tree, it hadn't really taken root because it wasn't her revelation. That is why when she took a bite of the fruit nothing happened, but when Adam took a bite then they realized they were naked. The same is true today for us. When we hear someone speak, it can be a great message, but if we don't ask God to give us a revelation the message won't take root and soon will be forgotten. It's up to us to learn how to listen to God and hear the revelations that He gives us, and teach people how to hear God so when we tell them our revelations, they will become their revelations as well and keep going. So ask God to give you a revelation today. He will do it!!
