Holy Spirit Dwelling with Us

In John 14:17, Jesus told His disciples of the Holy Spirit “dwelling, remaining, abiding, continuing” with us, which speaks of (i) habitation (and not just visitation); and (ii) passion on our part to desire the Holy Spirit “remaining and continuing” with us.

The 2 Scriptural references from Isaiah provide a clue as to the “characteristics” of the Holy Spirit’s place of rest, i.e. one who is (a) poor, humble; (b) of a contrite spirit; and (c) trembles at His Word.
