The Living Triune God of the Bible is referred to twice in the New Testament as being Love (I John 4:8, 16). He is referred to over 100 times in the New Testament as being Holy. (I do not point this out to diminish the wonder of His love for us).
The passages that refer to the Holy Spirit are obvious. A few of the ones that do not refer to Him are not clear as to whether they are meant to refer to Jesus or God or the Holy Spirit. I submit all of these passages below for your meditation and so that you might know Him as the Holy God that He is. May He reveal Himself to you in ever greater measure!
