2 Corinthians 3:3 - 6 (NKJV)
Clearly you are an epistle of Christ, ministered by us, written not with ink but by the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of flesh, that is, of the heart. And we have such trust through Christ toward God. Not that we are sufficient of ourselves, but our sufficiency is from God, who also made us sufficient as ministers of the new covenant, not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.
Romans 8:11 (NKJV)
But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Jesus from the dead will give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.
John 14:16 (NKJV)
"And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever - the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you."

Psalm 145:14 - 18 (NKJV)
The LORD upholds all who fall, and raises up all who are bowed down. The eyes of all look expectantly to You, and You give them their food in due season. You open Your hand and satisfy the desire of every living thing. The LORD is righteous in all His ways, gracious in all His works. The LORD is near to all who call upon Him, to all who call upon Him in truth.
Isaiah 41:13 (NKJV)
"For I, the LORD your God, will hold your right hand, saying to you, 'Fear not, I will help you.' "
Jude 24 (NKJV)
Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, and to present you faultless before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy.
Abba Father how awesome it is that because we have confessed Your Son Jesus Christ to be our Lord and our Savior that You are both with us and in us forever guiding our lives, directing our paths, cleansing us from all unrighteousness, and presenting us holy and unblemished before Your Holy Presence; and all of this gives You exceedingly great joy. It is in the name of our Lord and our Savior Christ Jesus that we pray. Amen.
