Private revelation

Private revelation is when someone has a special message or vision given to them by God or other spiritual beings. It's private because it's only meant for that person, or possibly a small group of people they share it with.

Think of it like a secret message from someone really important that only you and a few of your closest friends can understand. It's special, but it's not meant for everyone to hear.

People who experience private revelation might see an angel, have a dream or vision, or just feel a strong sense of communication from God or a saint. They might be given guidance on how to live their life, or be shown something important that will happen in the future.

It's important to remember that private revelation is not the same as public revelation, like what we read about in the Bible or other holy books. Private revelation is not required for anyone to believe or follow, but it can be a source of comfort and guidance for those who receive it.
