💥 By the Holy Spirit, Jesus lives in us today.

 

Acts 1  (Jesus with the 11 apostles after the resurrection and before HIS ascension into heaven)

4 And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith HE, ye have heard of ME.

5 For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.

8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto ME both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

9 And when HE had spoken these things, while they beheld, HE was taken up; and a cloud received HIM out of their sight.

10 And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as HE went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel;

11 Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen HIM go into heaven.

12 Then returned they unto Jerusalem from the mount called Olivet, which is from Jerusalem a sabbath day's journey.

And the eleven apostles waited with the other disciples at Jerusalem for the coming of the power of God through the Holy Spirit.  For they would receive power after the Holy Spirit came to them and then they would be witnesses to Jesus to the uttermost parts of the earth, as Jesus had told them.

Even before the crucifixion, Jesus had instructed them concerning the work of the Holy Spirit when HE came to them:

John 14:26  Jesus said:  But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in MY name, HE shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

John 16:13  Howbeit when HE, the Spirit of truth, is come, HE will guide you into all truth: for HE shall not speak of Himself; but whatsoever HE shall hear (from God), that shall HE speak: and HE will shew you things to come.

14 HE shall glorify ME: for HE shall receive of MINE, and shall shew it unto you.

Hebrews 1

1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,

2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by HIS Son, whom HE hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also HE made the worlds;

In the Old Testament only a few people were given the Holy Spirit and the people had to go to those people, the prophets, to inquire concerning the will of God.

In the New Testament all who belong to God are given the Holy Spirit so they hear directly from God by the Holy Spirit of God who lives in them.

I Corinthians 3:16  Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?

I Corinthians 6:19  What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?

20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.

God is with us whithersoever we go ... because God's Holy Spirit is in us and teaches us the way of God so we always have God with us.

The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Truth and is the Comforter.

The Holy Spirit does the following in us:

💥  The Holy Spirit teaches us all things, secular and spiritual:  The Holy Spirit of God searches the heart of God to reveal the will of God to us concerning the issues of this life so we know what to do.  (I Cor. 2)

💥  The Holy Spirit reminds us of all that Jesus has said to us in both scriptures and dreams and words directly from God from heaven:  This is a great advantage for we are given the "heart of God" and the very Spirit of God to live inside us.  (Eze. 36)

💥  The Holy Spirit guides us into all truth:  One step at a time, one step at a time, it is enough.  The Holy Spirit brings to our mind something to do.  Then we will be reminded of something else.  (This is like road signs on a highway.  We know the way for we follow the WORD brought to our mind by God though the Spirit of God WHO lives in us.)

💥  The Holy Spirit shows us things to come:  When I fell at my house in Texas on December 6, 2018, the ambulance workers were rolling me past my front door when I heard these words from the Holy Spirit of God bringing this information directly to my mind:  "You'll never see this house again."  Therefore I had faith to put my house up for sale and to enter into the way God had prepared for me.  I've often been shown things to come as I have lived on this earth and by the information given me by the Holy Spirit I can go forward in times of change in faith and full assurance, resting in that Word given by God by HIS Spirit.
