My 2002 honda civic RPM Wont stay at one level. It always Reving up and down when it's in idle mood..anyone have any idea what causing that to happen?

Air leaks can do that as well as idle air controller being clogged / failing.

Before tossing time and parts at it though, be sure to follow the sequence for idle relearn.

What you mean by sequence for idle relearn?

Stolen from another thread on here:

1. drive car til its warmed up.
2. turn car off, disconnect battery or pull FI ECU fuse out.
3. put fuse back, start car, close hood
4. make sure all accessories are off, do not press any gas or brake
5. just let the car idle for 10 mins by itself
6. turn car off, then back on, and go for a drive like you normally do. it will take usually one tank of gas to completely relearn the fuel trims.

Check for vacuum leak.
EGR valve/ports clogged with carbon?
Got a P0505 code?
Clean the throttle body.
Check for faulty IAC valve.
