Steemchurch, Bless cannot be bought on money.

Hey steemians welcome to today sermon, in the less of today, we could learn from the life of Simon.

When Simon saw that the people crowded around the three workers, Peter, John and Philip, he decided that he wanted this great power that they had.

Perhaps he thought if he could pay a few dollars to these preachers and receive what they had, he could go and earn a great deal of money by working miracle before the people. So Simon offered them some money.

But Peter said to Simon, "They money perish with thee, because thou hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money.....thy heart is not right in the sight of God. Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray God, if perhaps the thought of thine heart may be forgive thee."

Peter meant that if Simon did not repent of his sins, he would perish with his money. Perhaps Simon had great riches but his money could not buy for him these blessings from Heaven. Simon then asked Peter to pray for him. He did not want to suffer the terrible things that Peter had warned him of.

No one can buy God's blessing with money- God does not need our money He owns the whole world. We read in Psalm 50:10, "For every beast of the forest is mine, and the cattle upon a thousand hills." Jesus wants our heart. When we come to Jesus it matters not whether we are rich or poor -everyone must pay the same price.

We must give Him our heart and our love. We must have the Blood of Jesus upon our heart in order to enter Heaven. Sliver and gold cannot buy a moment of time in Heaven. Our hearts must be made white and clean through the Blood of Jesus Christ.
