Yes, the holy spirit is a helper. God's holy spirit is a powerful force for good, enabling those under its influence to display godly qualities. "The fruitage of the spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering, kindness, goodness, faith, mildness, self-control," says The Bible.
By relying on God's spirit, we can also receive "power beyond what is normal" to deal with any trouble or distress. (2 Corinthians 4:7) While the holy spirit may not remove trials or temptations, it can surely help us to endure them. (1 Corinthians 10:13) "For all things I have the strength by virtue of him who imparts power to me," wrote the Apostle Paul. (Philippians 4:13) God imparts such power by means of his holy spirit. How grateful we can be for the holy spirit! It is promised to those who 'love Jesus and keep his commandments.' (John 14:15)

So, although the Bible talks about The Holy Spirit, it does not tell us when we receive or why.

All disciples of Jesus Christ are indwelt by the Holy Spirit. The first disciples on the Day of Pentecost received the Holy Spirit at that time.

There are many things the disciples of Christ could not do without the Holy Spirit.

"A comparrison of bible texts that refer to the Holy Spirit shows that it is spoken of as 'filling people'; and they can be baptized with in it;(Luke 1:41; Matt 3:11 Acts 10:38) none of these expressions would be appropriate if the holy spirit were a person. Jesus also referred to the Holy Spirit as a "helper", and he said that this helper would "teach","bear witness","speak", and 'hear.'(John 14:16, 17, 26:15, 16:13) With this viewpoint, it is logical to conclude that the Holy Spirit is the active force of god.
