Marshall,

David has given an impressive list.. :-)

Do you have a concordance?  If you search 'Holy Spirit' the scriptures will come up for you.

Here's an online concordance which you may find helpful:

Marshall,

I second Carla's thoughts. Kudos to David V. for sharing such a comprehensive list of scriptures that mention the Holy Spirit.  Here are a few more. 

• Jude 1:20 | But you, beloved, building yourselves up in your most
  holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit.
• Acts 19:2 | He said to them, "Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you
  believed?" And they said to him, "No, we have not even heard whether
  there is a Holy Spirit."
• Acts 11:16 | Then I remembered what the Lord had said: 'John baptized
  with water, but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.'
• John 7:39 | By this he meant the Spirit, whom those who believed in him
  were later to receive. Up to that time the Spirit had not been given, since
  Jesus had not yet been glorified.

 

In addition, you may find R.A. Torrey's  commentary, The Person and Work of the Holy Spirit, which is full of scriptural references, to be interesting and informative.  CARM has a short article worth reading, which summarizes the Holy Spirit's nature and attributes in two tables, each with supporting verses: http://carm.org/holy-spirit.

Marshall, I think you would also do well to search out every time the term spirit (as in The Spirit of the Lord) is mentioned in the Old Testament. I would suggest including in that searching out each time the term Breath of God (as in when God breathed and parted the Red Sea). In my opinion, the Holy Spirit is mentioned throughout the Old Testament as well as the New. You find him mentioned in the very first book of the Bible at least once that I know. 

If you are doing a study, for sure you want to purchase a Strong's Concordance. I have owned one for 23 years and it was a great tool for opening my eyes.
