Day 216: The Hope of Purity
Daily Devotional
By Derek Prince
People will tell you, “But the Holy Spirit wouldn’t dwell in an unclean vessel.” That’s wrong The Holy Spirit does dwell in unclean vessels. If He didn’t, we’d have no hope. Without Him we cannot be purified, so we need Him. It’s like if a professor at the university would say to his class, “Now when you’ve passed your exams, I’ll teach you.” And they’d say, “But, professor, we need you teach us to pass our exam.” After all, David committed adultery and murder and prayed “Take not Thy Holy Spirit from me.” And God didn’t. Aren’t you glad the Holy Spirit doesn’t leave you every time you do something wrong?
