Mosiah 2:37

"I say unto you, that the man that doeth this, the same cometh out in open rebellion against God; therefore he listeth to obey the evil spirit, and becometh an enemy to all righteousness; therefore, the Lord has no place in him, for he dwelleth not in unholy temples."

When we let pride take over our hearts and do things that are contrary to the Spirit, we let Satan take over. We shut out the Lord. I like how this verse clarifies why the Lord does not dwell in unholy places. It's not that the Lord goes away, it's that we have no place for him. We choose not to allow his influence in our lives, rather than him abandoning us.
