Because you did not believe.
"The bishop does not know what is inside my heart."
Yes, I do. It is a wellspring of feelings, overflowing with emotions. Including faith, however it is emotional faith. 
This kind of faith is responsible for causing doubt in about 90% of believers and making them spiritually ill.
When you believe and use your reason, there is nothing that can stop you from receiving the Spirit of God.
Do you know why?
Because no one is more interested in sealing you with the Holy Spirit than the Son of God. He has already given Him to those who believe.
You must offer, surrender and submit your body, soul and spirit into seeking Him.
You have to really want it and you have to prove it!
Maybe you have considered it, but have not truly believed.
Considering is like dating. Having a one night stand or dating does not require any real commitment. Many find themselves in this situation. They are enamored of the Spirit.
On the other hand, believing involves serious commitment. It’s a marriage, an unconditional surrender. It’s a belief that takes on decisive commitment, even if that means sacrificing the good old single life.
This kind of belief touches the heart of God and brings immediate answers. The believer is committed and determined to abandon sin for Him.
Isn’t that what marriage requires?
The newlyweds give up the freedom of single life to start a new life of obligations, responsibilities and sacrifices.
If this does not exist, how will they be able to stay together?
A marriage and the receiving of the Spirit of God depends on the person willingly giving up their freedom to serve Him.
The unwillingness to give up the things that are in their heart, such as: children, parents, family, boyfriend, house, career, profession, material possessions, religion, everything to receive the Holy Spirit, proves they do not believe.
Those who do not have a bold faith like Abraham cannot expect more from God than what they give Him.
