In this brief sermon, the speaker emphatically declares that the anointing of the Holy Spirit cannot be bought or earned through human effort, money, or programs. He references Acts 8:22, citing Simon the Sorcerer’s failed attempt to purchase the Holy Spirit out of jealousy, to illustrate that spiritual authority is a divine gift, not a commodity. The speaker warns against the notion that conference registrations, e‑courses, or personal ambition can secure a calling, emphasizing that true anointing comes solely from the Holy Spirit.

You cannot buy the anointing. Just ask Simon the Sorcerer in Acts 8:22. He attempted to purchase the anointing because he was filled with jealousy over the admiration that the people had for the apostles. And so he wanted the anointing for himself. You cannot buy the anointing. You cannot purchase your call. You cannot pay for a conference registration and then come back called. You cannot put yourself through an e-course and receive the anointing. It's by the Holy Spirit.
