🌿 Mister, Adam — Why?

A Blog by iPublishub-Books

✨ Introduction — “Mister, Adam”

Mister, Adam… why?

Why would you listen to the voice of the woman when God gave you the instruction concerning the tree of the knowledge of good and evil?

Now hear me: I’m not judging Adam.

Because if we’re honest, every one of us has failed to obey God at some point.

We have all ignored His warnings, rejected His nudges, overlooked His commandments, and chosen our own path.

Adam’s story is not simply a historical moment —

it is a reflection of the choices we make today.

The Lord formed Adam from the dust of the ground and breathed life into him.

He became a living soul — created in the image and likeness of God.

God’s masterpiece.

God’s reflection.

God’s first son on earth.

But God didn’t make Adam a robot.

He gave him a will.

He gave him freedom.

He gave him responsibility.

And Adam made a choice.

A costly one.

He listened to the voice of his wife — who had listened to the voice of the serpent — instead of the voice of the God who created him.

Our own choices carry consequences, too — good or bad.

Just like Adam, we are responsible for choosing truth over emotion, obedience over desire, and God’s instruction over human influence.

So today, let’s sit across from Mister Adam — not to condemn him, but to understand him.

To learn from him.

To look at our own lives and examine the voices we follow.

If we could ask Adam three honest, soul-searching questions… what might his answers reveal?

Let’s dive in.

✨ Three Strong Questions for Mister, Adam — Expanded

1️⃣ Mister Adam… why did you choose your wife’s voice over God’s voice?

You heard God’s command directly from His mouth.

You walked with Him before Eve was ever formed.

You knew His tone, His authority, and His instruction.

So what changed?

Why did the voice of someone you loved become louder than the voice of the One who created you?

Why did affection override obedience?

Why did relationship outweigh revelation?

✨ Explanation

Adam was not deceived — Scripture says that Eve was deceived, but Adam chose.

His fall was not confusion; it was concession.

The serpent didn’t need to deceive Adam personally —

he only needed Adam to trust someone already deceived.

This is why every relationship must be submitted to God.

✨ How Adam Could Have Fought Back

• Remembered God’s exact command

• Tested what was given to him

• Asked God for clarity before acting

✨ Application for Us

Many believers fall for the same reason:

we allow familiar voices to override divine truth.

Every voice — even loving ones — must bow to the Word of God.

2️⃣ Mister Adam… why didn’t you remind your wife of what God said, instead of silently agreeing with deception?

You held the truth.

You carried the command.

You knew the boundaries God set in place.

So why didn’t you speak up?

Why didn’t you lead?

Why didn’t you correct?

Why didn’t you protect the garden entrusted to you?

Silence can be just as dangerous as rebellion.

✨ Explanation

Adam wasn’t absent — he was standing right there.

He watched.

He listened.

He observed the moment of deception.

But he said nothing.

Sometimes the enemy doesn’t need your participation —

he just needs your silence.

✨ How Adam Could Have Fought Back

• Repeat God’s Word

• Protect the woman God gave him

• Challenge deception with truth

✨ Application for Us

The enemy loves silent believers.

Silent leaders.

Silent Christians.

Your silence can empower the darkness you are called to confront.

Speak truth.

Correct in love.

Lead boldly.

3️⃣ Mister Adam… why did you trade divine covering for human approval?

One moment of pleasing Eve cost you the garden God entrusted to you.

One decision shifted your entire assignment.

Why didn’t you run back to God?

Why didn’t you question the fruit?

Why didn’t you pause and remember God’s voice?

Approval feels good — but costs too much when it costs you obedience.

✨ Explanation

Adam chose harmony with Eve over holiness before God.

He valued her acceptance more than God’s instruction.

He allowed emotional comfort to outweigh spiritual conviction.

✨ How Adam Could Have Fought Back

• Seek God before acting

• Evaluate before agreeing

• Remember obedience > approval

✨ Application for Us

People-pleasing will always rob you of your garden.

Your peace.

Your calling.

Your protection.

When your desire to please others outweighs your desire to honor God,

you will always fall out of position.

Obedience protects your assignment.

Approval can destroy it.

✨ Restoration — Mister, Adam

Before we close Adam’s story, remember this:

God did not abandon Adam in his failure.

Even after Adam disobeyed…

God came walking through the garden.

God called his name.

God pursued him.

God covered him.

“Adam, where are you?”

It wasn’t about geography — it was about relationship.

Where Adam fell, God introduced grace.

Where Adam failed, God offered redemption.

Where Adam lost Eden, God promised Christ.

Adam’s mistake did not cancel God’s plan for his life.

And your mistake cannot cancel God’s plan for yours.

The same God who came looking for Adam

is the same God who comes looking for you.

Restoration is not the absence of failure —

it is the Presence of God showing up after the fall.

✨ Final Conclusion

Mister Adam teaches us one thing clearly:

The voice you follow determines the life you live.

Adam fell because he elevated the wrong voice.

He surrendered leadership.

He silenced truth.

He traded obedience for approval.

But his story didn’t end in failure —

and neither will yours.

God still calls your name.

God still covers your shame.

God still restores what was lost.

God still redeems what was broken.

Choose God’s voice above every other voice.

Protect the garden He entrusted to you.

And walk boldly in the grace He freely gives.

✨ Closing Prayer

Father,

Thank You for the lessons hidden within the life of Adam.

Help us to recognize Your voice above all others.

Give us courage to speak when silence is dangerous,

and wisdom to obey even when obedience is costly.

Forgive us for the moments we traded Your truth for approval.

Restore us, realign us, and lead us back into the garden of Your will.

Thank You for Your grace that never stops pursuing us.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.
