How do we know the Holy Spirit indwells believers?

Answered in 2 sources

We know the Holy Spirit indwells believers through the transformative work He performs in their lives, giving them spiritual life and faith.

The Holy Spirit's indwelling is evidenced by the change in a believer's nature and desires. When a sinner is born again, the Holy Spirit provides spiritual life, enabling them to understand God’s Word and flee from sin. The Spirit convicts of sin and righteousness and instills a longing for obedience to God. As confirmed in Ephesians 2:10, believers are created in Christ Jesus for good works, illustrating the active presence of the Holy Spirit in their lives, guiding them away from fleshly desires and towards godly living.
