We do have these verses, "That which is born of Spirit is spirit" and "He that is joined to the Lord is one Spirit with Him" and "Don’t you know that you yourselves are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit dwells in your midst?" (John 3:6 & 1 Cor 6:17 & 1 Cor 3:16)

(and how about John 14:20 - "On that day you will know that I am in My Father, and you are in Me, and I am in you." And then there's the whole discourse in John 17 where Jesus prays and mentions several times that He will be in us.)

So no, you may be right in that there is no verse which seems to say that He specifically is IN our spirit, but from these verses above, I think one can draw that conclusion pretty easily, don't you think?
