How do we know the Holy Spirit is always with us?

Answered in 2 sources

The Holy Spirit is promised to dwell in believers permanently, ensuring His presence in our lives (John 14:16-17).

Scripturally, the promise of the Holy Spirit's abiding presence is clearly articulated in passages like John 14:16-17, where Jesus assures His followers that He will send another Comforter who will remain with them forever. This assurance underlines the unbreakable bond between the Spirit and the believer.

Additionally, historic Reformed theology emphasizes that God has never revoked this gift of the Holy Spirit from the Church. His continuous presence is vital for the believer's growth, sanctification, and understanding of Scripture. Although external factors like prayerlessness or worldliness can cause a believer to experience a lack of spiritual vitality, the reality of the Holy Spirit's indwelling presence remains, serving as a source of strength and guidance throughout our Christian journey.
