Can you show me this teaching in scripture?

We don't really need a quote from Scripture to support the obvious? You don't need the Scriptures to know that creation reveals the handiwork of the Creator The Bible tells us who that Creator is.

Paul tells us in Romans 1:20-21 that the invisible God is revealed through the medium of creation. This revelation is manifest; it is not obscured but clearly seen by all. The unbeliever may reject this but it is none the less how God has revealed himself. In Christian circles this is called the general revelation of God.

The special revelation of God is given to us in the Bible. Without this man would walk in darkness. Here God reveals himself through His Son and through His dealings with His people. The Bible itself teaches its divine origin and authority:

That "No prophecy of Scripture came about by the prophets’ own interpretation." 2 Peter 1:20

That all Scripture was written as "Men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit." 2 Peter 1:21

That "God Spoke . . . through the prophets . . . and by His Son." Hebrews 1:1-2

That "All Scripture is God-breathed." 2 Timothy 3:16

The Word of God, once given and written, is exact in all details down to each letter and stroke of the pen. Matthew 5:18

That "The Scripture cannot be broken." John 10:35

That "The Word of the Lord stands forever." 1 Peter 1:25

Link goes on to write:
The word 'revelation' is used in a pretty broad sense in scripture. Christ's identity as the Christ the Son of God was 'revealed' to Peter by the Father. Paul prayed for the Ephesians to have the Spirit of revelation.

Also, there are smaller revelations, things that are not necessarily doctrinal in nature. Agabus predicted a then future famine, for example.

Scripture teaches that prophecy is one of the gifts of the Spirit.

I'm not seeing your point in these statements. Are you trying to prove supernatural revelations are happening independent from Scripture today. What's the purpose?
