Do we submit ourselves to the ministry of the Holy Spirit?

In the gospel of John 14:16, Jesus says, "And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that he may abide with you forever-".  This chapter takes place shortly before Jesus Christ was crucified.  The Lord Jesus was sharing some of his final thoughts with his disciples before he left his physical body on earth.  He was assuring them that he would send the person of the Holy Spirit to be with them and to lead them and to guide them.  The ministry of the Holy Spirit was to continue the earthly ministry that the Lord Jesus had begun.  This Holy Spirit would lead the Church corporately but also could inhabit each persons' spirit individually.  When we submit ourselves to the Holy Spirit, it is as if we are submitting ourselves to the Lord Jesus himself.  Because the Father, Son and Holy Spirit are one.
