In the book of Genesis 3:8-11
And they heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God amongst the trees of the garden. And the LORD God called unto Adam, and said unto him, Where art thou? And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself. And he said, Who told thee that thou wast naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat?
God knew where Adam was so He was not asking Adam that question for His own personal knowledge and understanding, no, God was asking Adam the question so that Adam could recognize and know where he was. Adam was lost, he was in a place spiritually that he had never been in before, he didn’t know where he was because he had never seen this kind of darkness before. He didn’t know where he was and certainly he did not know where he was going.
Adam where art thou……………I believe God was speaking to Adam of a spiritual condition rather than a physical place. Adam was no longer on the Godly road of success. He had chosen a different course, another road, the selfish way. He choose to do his own thing and now he would have to reap the consequences.
The bible tells us in Galatians 6:7
Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
Choices have consequences for good and for evil.
Because of Adams choice He no longer had position and dominion. He was stripped of his divine location and now we find him on a different destination, a hard and dangerous course, one that was not ordained by God. This was not the course nor was it the journey that God prepared for Adam and Eve. God wanted them to enjoy the good life that he had already prepared and made ready for them to live. God loved them and He had a far more superior life picked out for them. They lost their way because they didn’t want to obey.
God has a path and a course prepared for you.
Ephesians 2:10 declares,
For we are God's [own] handiwork (His workmanship), [a]recreated in Christ Jesus, [born anew] that we may do those good works which God predestined (planned beforehand) for us [taking paths which He prepared ahead of time], that we should walk in them [living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us to live].

Wow that’s worth seeking God for!
But you know many times people miss out on the plans and purposes that God has for their lives because of wrong information and words spoken to them or around them that destroy and abort divine destinations. So we want to help you get rid of all those poisonous death darts so that you can receive the right information through impartation of the Word of God. Jesus said in John 15:3 Now ye are clean through the words I have spoken unto you.
It’s time to clean house so that God can build and plant new things that will help your life flourish and grow, so that you can be in step and on time with your God given destiny.
Amen, do we know where we are today. Better yet, is it where God wants you?*
