Zac Poonen - For Children: The Holy Spirit Comes Inside us to Supply Our Every Need
Summary
The speaker contrasts God's work in the Old Testament, where help was external, with the New Testament, where God comes to live inside believers. This internal presence, powered by the Holy Spirit, provides the strength to overcome sin from within, unlike the external help of the past. This internal power is necessary because repeated confession of sin without internal change is insufficient.

The speaker contrasts God's work in the Old Testament, where help was external, with the New Testament, where God dwells internally through the Holy Spirit. He emphasizes that while external help can solve visible problems, only the Spirit residing within can solve internal struggles, such as sin and weakness of will. Therefore, believers must rely on the power of the Holy Spirit from within to live righteously, rather than merely confessing sins externally.
