Wordpress Placing of the_content() function in custom page - wordpress

I have made a custom page in my wordpress theme. The page is working fine. But I am facing trouble using the_content(); function. I am using a few custom fields to display some content on the page and I want the content of the page, that is entered in the Editor, to be displayed on a specific place on the page. But Whatever I enter in the Editor, gets placed at the top of the page above all other content.
EDIT:
Here is the full code:
<?php get_header(); ?>
<div id="main-content">
<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<?php the_content(); ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<div class="mobile-top">
<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>">
<p><?php the_title(); ?> price</p>
</a>
</div>
<?php comments_template(); ?>
</div>
</div> <!--main-content Ends-->

How to show posts in custom page template in wordpress?

I am trying to make my custom page template,in which i display post with custom styles, i don't know how to show posts in this custom page template,here i am attaching my simple code for custom page template.
<?php
/*
Template Name: Custom Template
*/

//custom code for post is here
get_footer();

You can use WP_Query() to add a custom loop to your page template. You can find a few examples in the WordPress Codex
You can always use page template similar to this and make full use of the codes over here writing with our own classes and style you are referring to :
<?php
/*
Template Name: Custom Template
*/
get_header(); ?>
<div id="primary" class="site-content">
<div id="content" role="main">
<?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
<header class="entry-header">
<?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?>
<h1 class="entry-title"><?php the_title(); ?></h1>
</header>
<div class="entry-content">
<?php the_content(); ?>
</div><!-- .entry-content -->
<?php comments_template( '', true ); ?>
<?php endwhile; // end of the loop. ?>
</div><!-- #content -->
</div><!-- #primary -->
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>

How to print text from db in special template for specific page in wordpress

I have five pages and I have created a different layout for last two pages, that layout has a div with class infoDiv and that div has a text which I just put manually in the source code, so I can't change it through wordpress. How can I have it available in my dashboard so client no need to change in code?
<?php
/*
Template Name: Special Layout
*/
get_header();
if (have_posts()) {
while (have_posts()) {
the_post();
?>
<article class="borderClass">
<h2> <?php the_title(); ?> </h2>
<div class="infoDiv">
<h4>This is info div</h4>
<p>this is the text I want to edit or add
using dashboard.</p>
</div>
<?php the_content(); ?>
</article>
<?php
}
} else {
echo "<p>No content found</p>";
}
get_footer();
Just move <?php the_content(); ?> like below
<article class="borderClass">
<?php the_title( '<h2>', '</h2>' ); ?>
<div class="infoDiv">
<?php the_content(); ?> <!-- Entered content -->
</div>
</article>

Wordpress theme: Custom page template displays all the website's pages

I'm developping a wordpress theme. I'm making a custom theme for a specific page.
I created a "Home" page with the identifier "home". I created a page-home.php file, with this loop:
<?php get_header();
get_topmenu(); ?>
<div class="catch"></div>
<div id="primary" class="content-area page-home">
<div id="content" class="site-content" role="main">
<?php /* The loop */ ?>
<?php if(have_posts()) : ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<article id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>" <?php post_class(); ?>>
<h1 class="entry-title"><?php the_title(); ?></h1>
<div class="entry-content">
<?php the_content(); ?>
</div><!-- .entry-content -->
</article><!-- #post -->
<?php comments_template(); ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
</div><!-- #content -->
</div><!-- #primary -->
PAGE HOME.PHP
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
But doing this, when I call ?q=home, I've got ALL my pages displayed in the loop, and not just the "home" page... What is the cleanest way to get just the "Home" page ?

WordPress Query Posts To Show All & Style Each One

I am trying to include every post onto my index page on WordPress and have each one of them be styled with the included CSS. I am able to query all of the posts and have them show up, but only the first post is actually styled. The rest inherit the base h1, h2, p and other generic styles, but they aren't inheriting the "box" class for each one. All of the information is being thrown into one 'box' class instead of starting a new 'box' class for each post like I would like it to do. Any help on this would be appreciated.
Here is my code I am using
<?php get_header(); ?>
<div id="index-float-left">
<div class="box">
<?php query_posts( 'showposts=-1' ); ?>
<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<div <?php post_class() ?> id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
<h1><?php the_title(); ?></h1>
<p><?php the_content(); ?></p>
<p class="post-date"><?php echo $post_date = get_the_date(); ?></p>
</div>
</div> <!-- END BOX -->
</div> <!-- FLOAT BOX BOX -->
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php else : ?>
<h2>Not Found</h2>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
There is a problem with "End Box" and "Fload Box Box". Can you try like this:
<?php get_header(); ?>
<div id="index-float-left">
<?php query_posts( 'showposts=-1' ); ?>
<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<div class="box">
<div <?php post_class() ?> id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
<h1><?php the_title(); ?></h1>
<p><?php the_content(); ?></p>
<p class="post-date"><?php echo $post_date = get_the_date(); ?></p>
</div>
</div> <!-- END BOX -->
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php else : ?>
<h2>Not Found</h2>
<?php endif; ?>
</div> <!-- FLOAT BOX BOX -->
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>

How can I have multiple loops on one page in Wordpress?

I am using a nice jquery slideshow plugin I found and trying to get it to work into my Wordpress template. I have tried the code below in various formats but I can't seem to get it the way I want.
The first part is where the title and content of the post reads into the slider, using a specific category. I have 3 of these sections:
<div class="details_wrapper">
<div class="details">
<div class="detail">
<?php query_posts('cat_ID=7&showposts=1');
if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post();?>
<h2 class="Lexia-Bold"><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>">
<?php the_title() ?></a><?php the_excerpt(); ?></h2>
<?php endwhile; endif;
?>
</div><!-- /detail -->
<div class="detail">
<?php query_posts('cat_ID=8&showposts=1');
if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post();?>
<h2 class="Lexia-Bold"><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>">
<?php the_title() ?></a><?php the_excerpt(); ?></h2>
<?php endwhile; endif;
?>
</div><!-- /detail -->
<div class="detail">
<?php query_posts('cat_ID=9&showposts=1');
if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post();?>
<h2 class="Lexia-Bold"><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>">
<?php the_title() ?></a><?php the_excerpt(); ?></h2>
<?php endwhile; endif;
?>
</div><!-- /detail -->
</div><!-- /details -->
</div>
Now this actually works, but I just need it to post the title and excerpt from one of the posts from the category noted. I was reading that I may need to add the wp_reset_query(); line somewhere to destroy the previous loop's query, but I'm not sure.
Here's the second part of the code where the post's featured image is retrieved:
<div class="item item_1">
<?php query_posts('cat_ID=7&posts_per_page=1'); ?>
<?php the_post_thumbnail( 'single-post-thumbnail' ); ?>
</div><!-- /item -->
<div class="item item_2">
<?php query_posts('cat_ID=8&posts_per_page=1'); ?>
<?php the_post_thumbnail( 'single-post-thumbnail' ); ?>
</div><!-- /item -->
<div class="item item_3">
<?php query_posts('cat_ID=9&posts_per_page=1'); ?>
<?php the_post_thumbnail( 'single-post-thumbnail' ); ?>
</div>
Any help would be greatly appreciated :) Here's an example.
Have you tried using...
query_posts('cat_ID=9&posts_per_page=1');
Or I have used get_post before as while to get certain amount of post like so...
<?php
global $post;
$myposts = get_posts('posts_per_page=1&numberposts=-1&category=1');
foreach($myposts as $post) :
?>
<h6><?php the_title(); ?></h6>
<?php setup_postdata($post);?>
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</div>
If its just one post you want you wouldn't really need the foreach or while loop.
I used the method Tianbo84 suggested above both to query the posts AND the featured images from that post to finish the job :) Thanks Tianbo84! To my understanding, the get_posts and <?php endforeach; ?> lines were key... like opening a query and then closing it once the data was retrieved.
