                            messagesList.add(messages);
                            adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();

Answer

I answer my question to help anyone if he get an error like

com.google.firebase.database.DatabaseException: Failed to convert a value of type java.lang.String to long

when using FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().setPersistenceEnabled(true); the error occurred because I retrieve data like

Messages messages = snapshot.getValue(Messages.class);

it is not right to do that when using firebase offline ,the right way to retrieve every child like

String text = snapshot.child("message").getValue().toString;

and then create instance of your class and pass it to adapter
