The one who keeps His commandments abides in Him, and He in him. We know by this that He abides in us, by the Spirit whom He has given us

 Indwelling:

        

            Know He abides in us:

 

1 John 3:24

24 The one who keeps His commandments abides in Him, and He in him. We know by this that He abides in us, by the Spirit whom He has given us.

 

1 John 4:13

13 By this we know that we abide in Him and He in us, because He has given us of His Spirit.

 

            When we came to Him, God gave us of His Spirit. Since we can know that the Holy Spirit dwells within us, we know that God Himself dwells within us. Some people have actually felt something within them after conversion, while some have never felt anything.

            In the first volume, Your Destiny, I mentioned that the evening after I asked Jesus to come into my heart I was at a basketball game. I felt something like a hollow rubber ball around my heart. The enemy was shooting arrows at my heart, but they bounced off the ball.

            You too may have felt something and perhaps more than once. Each person is different.

 

If you could hear God speak, I believe this is what He would say:

            "You can know that you are Mine. When you sense the presence of My Spirit, then you can know that I am in you and you are in Me. I have not left you alone. I have sent My Spirit to abide in you. He it is who will bring you into My Kingdom. Do not fear. I will never desert you. I will always be with you, and you can always sense My presence in you. Trust in My Spirit to guide you into the paths of righteousness. He will show you the way. You cannot survive without Him. He it is who will bring you into victory.”

 

            43. I know for certain that I have Jesus abiding in me and I in Him. I know this because of His Spirit living inside me which He gave me.
