 Revelation is to be desired above all other Knowledge .
<p>
Why?
<p>
 Revelation is not obtainable by Personal effort. 
<p>
 Revelation is not the same as Understanding . A person may gain insight into a subject and discover more Information about that subject that was there all along. This is Understanding .
<p>
 Revelation comes from the Spirit Realm - Heaven . It comes from God .
<p>
The best Example of Revelation is the book of Genesis . Moses lived 2500 years after the events recorded in the first 3 chapters of Genesis . He did not record any of this Information as ~I heard that~ or ~it was passed down~ or ~legend has it~.
<p>
Moses stated what actually happened 2500 years before he was Born because God revealed it to him. That is Revelation .
<p>
Paul was given the Revelation of the Gospel of Jesus Christ . His writings were inspired by HolySpirit to Teach us things for which Jesus laid Only the Foundation . That is Revelation .
<p>
 Galations 1:11,12 <br><i>
11 But I certify You , brethren, that the Gospel which was preached of me is not after man. <br>
12 For I neither Received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the Revelation of Jesus Christ .</i>
<p>
 Understanding that Jesus meant what He said about Faith , Freedom , Life , Love , Healing Authority and Power is Revelation .
<p>
 Ephesians 1:15-23 <br><i>
15 Wherefore I also, after I heard of your Faith in the Lord Jesus , and Love unto all the saints, <br>
16 cease not to Give Thanks for You , making mention of You in my Prayers ; <br>
17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ , the Father of Glory , may Give unto You the Spirit of Wisdom and Revelation in the Knowledge of him: 
<p>
18 the Eyes of your Understanding being Enlightened ; that ye may Know what is the Hope of his Calling , and what the Riches of the Glory of his Inheritance in the saints, <br>
19 and what is the exceeding greatness of his Power to us-ward who Believe , according to the working of his Mighty Power , 
<p>
20 which he wrought in Christ , when he raised him from the Dead , and set him at his own Right hand in the Heavenly places, <br>
21 far above all Principality , and Power , and Might , and Dominion , and every Name that is named, not Only in this world, but also in that which is to come: 
<p>
22 and hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the Head over all things to the Church , 
23 which is his Body , the Fullness of him that filleth all in all.</i>
<p>
Without Revelation we do not Believe as we should; we do not Speak as we should; We do not experience what we should.
<p>
Without Revelation we simply do not Manifest as Sons of God .
<p>
 Jesus said it was given unto us to Know the mysteries of the Kingdom - a Spiritual Kingdom that operates on Spiritual Laws and has Power over the natural world.
<p>
 Jesus instructed us to Ask , Seek and Knock for what we Desire . He instructed us to Hunger and Thirst for Him . <br> <br>
For those who do they Will be Given , they Will Find , it Will be Opened and they Will be Filled . 
<p>
Be <i>Highly</i> Educated. Ask Christ Jesus to reveal His Love , His Gifts and His Mind to you.

<li> <b> Divine Revelation :</b>
<ul>
<li> Matthew 16:13-20 <br><i>
 13 When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men Say that I the Son of man am?
 <br>
 14 And they said, Some Say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets.
 <br>
 15 He saith unto them, But whom Say ye that I Am?
 <br>
 16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ , the Son of the Living God .
<p>
 17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for Flesh and Blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.
 <br>
 18 And I Say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I Will build my Church ; and the gates of Hell shall not prevail against it.
<p>
 19 And I Will Give unto thee the Keys of the Kingdom of Heaven : and whatsoever thou shalt Bind on Earth shall be Bound in Heaven : and whatsoever thou shalt Loose on Earth shall be loosed in Heaven .
 <br>
 20 Then charged he his Disciples that they should tell no man that he was Jesus the Christ .</i> 
<li> Romans 16:25 <br>
<i>Now to him that is of Power to stablish You according to my Gospel , and the preaching of Jesus Christ , according to the Revelation of the Mystery , which was kept secret since the world began,</i>
<li> Galatians 1:11-13 <br>
<i> 11 But I certify You , brethren, that the Gospel which was preached of me is not after man.
 <br>
 12 For I neither Received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the Revelation of Jesus Christ . </i>
<li> Ephesians 1:17 <br>
<i>That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ , the Father of Glory , may Give unto You the Spirit of Wisdom and Revelation in the Knowledge of him:</i>

<i>How that by Revelation he made known unto me the mystery; ( as I wrote afore in few words,</i>
<li> Revelation 1:1 <br><i>
The Revelation of Jesus Christ , which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his Angel unto his servant John:</i>

<li> <b>Effect of Revelation :</b>
<ul>
<li> Clarity 
<li> Advantage 
<li> Confidence 
<li> Power 
</ul>
<li> <b>How do You get Revelation ?</b>
<ul>
<li> Matthew 5:6 <br><i>
Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after Righteousness : for they shall be filled.</i>
<li> Matthew 13:11 <br><i>
He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto You to Know the mysteries of the Kingdom of Heaven , but to them it is not given.</i>
</ul>
<li> Jesus 
<ul>
<li> Jesus is the express Image of the Father ( God ). There Never has been nor ever Will be a Physical Manifestation of God other than in Jesus . God became Flesh and dwelt among us and we beheld His Glory as of the Only begotten of the Father - full of Grace and Glory .
<li> 
 Jesus is the Way , the Truth and the Life . No one can come to the Father except through Him ( Jesus ).
<li> 
 Jesus reveals the Character of God and Enables His followers to demonstrate that Character by empowering them through His Holy Spirit :
<ul>
<li> Love 
<li> Joy 
<li> Peace 
<li> Longsuffering 
<li> Gentleness 
<li> Goodness 
<li> Faith 
<li> Meekness 
<li> Temperance 
</ul>

<li> If Revelation is not based on the Word of God then it is from Satan ! 
<p>
Below are Quotes directly from Satan :

 Genesis 3:4,5 <br><i>

<p>
 Isaiah 14:13 <br><i>
For thou hast said in thine Heart , I Will ascend into Heaven , I Will exalt my Throne above the stars of God : I Will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the Sides of the north: </i>

But though we, or an Angel from Heaven , Preach any other Gospel unto You than that which we have preached unto You , let him be accursed. </i>
