“Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all the filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.” And there’s no power for the believer today if he’s going to live in the dirt of the present hour. You can’t wallow in this today, my friends, and expect to have power in your life. I’m getting a little weary now of these people that say, “Well, we must keep up with this day in which we live.” Why do you have to keep up with this day? Let’s get rid of the dirt and the filth and come to Him and say, “Create in me a clean heart, O God…. Make me the kind of a man or the kind of a woman I should be.”
