No bargaining

You can’t bargain

Acts 8:20

“Peter answered: “May your money perish with you, because you thought you could buy the gift of God with money!”

What would you give to get more?
What would you be to be blessed?
Simon still exists in the world today.
Africa is a continent which has many. People will give anything to get the anointing. Profit isn’t far from the prophet.
But in our own western culture Simon also exists.
We will chase our heroes, conference hop, download the latest etc for the reason of change, of becoming someone better than we are now. It costs, but we willingly pay for this.
And because we are not chasing after God but His gift then He is not pleased with this search and longing of our life.
You can’t buy. You can’t manipulate. You can’t bargain.
All you can do is surrender. Take your eyes off the things man wants and turn your eyes upon Jesus.
