Good -Life Devotional: THE GRACE OF GOD CANNOT BE OBTAINED BY MONEY

By Michael Benson Ajayi 

    Grace is the free gift of God, not a commodity to be bought, sold, or exchanged for money. In Acts 8:9–25,    Simon the sorcerer believed the gospel and was baptized, yet his thinking was still shaped by his old life. When he saw the Holy Spirit given through the laying on of the apostles’ hands, he offered money, saying, “Give me this authority and power too” (Acts 8:19). Peter answered sharply: “May your money perish with you, because you thought you could buy the gift of God with money!” (Acts 8:20).    This shows clearly that grace cannot be purchased.

Simon had loved public admiration before conversion. The people called him “the great power of God” (Acts 8:10–11).     That same desire for personal glory still controlled him. In the same way, many modern preachers seek celebration, titles, and applause instead of pointing men to Christ.   But a true preacher proclaims Jesus Christ crucified, not himself (1 Corinthians 2:2; 2 Corinthians 4:5). Grace does not flow through financial manipulation; it is freely given by God. Jesus said, “Freely you have received, freely give” (Matthew 10:8).

    Scripture warns against men of corrupt minds who think godliness is a means of material gain (1 Timothy 6:5–6). Such teaching is evil. Grace is not proven by wealth, but by Christ Himself working in us. Salvation is “not of works” and comes by grace through faith (Ephesians 2:8–9). The Spirit is given by God, not purchased by men. Therefore, avoid ministers who commercialize spiritual things. Honor those who make Christ central, walk in humility, and show that the gift of God is free, holy, and beyond the price of silver or gold.

PRAYER; Heavenly Father forgive me of my sins against you I believe Jesus Christ died and was raised again for my salvation I receive him as Lord and saviour and receive the Holy Spirit and power to work miracles.
