Because it acts like He is dead or never existed, the world tells us that everything we see exists by accident or macro-evolution. But, no matter how smart or advanced man thinks he has become, he cannot explain how something came from nothing, complexity evolved from chaos, how life arose from non-life, or how morality developed from instinct. Claiming to be wise, they became fools (Romans 1:19-22).
Rather, because “Our God, He Is Alive,” God is able to help us in many ways here and in eternity.
I. John 1:1-3. In the first and second stanzas of the song, God is able to help us as our Creator (Isaiah 40:28-31) and Communicator (2 Timothy 3:16-17):
There is, beyond the azure blue, A God, concealed from human sight, He tinted skies with heav’nly hue And framed the worlds with His great might.
There was, a long, long time ago, A God the prophets heard, He is the God that we should know, Who speaks from His inspired Word.
II. Colossians 1:15-20. The third stanza shows God as Omnipotent (1 Corinthians 1:21-25) and Omniscient (Isaiah 55:8-9, Matthew 7:7-8):
Secure, is life from mortal mind, God holds the germ within His hand, Tho’ men may search, they cannot find, For God alone does understand.
III. John 8:34-36. The fourth stanza explains that because Jesus was our Sacrifice, He can also be our Savior (Romans 3:21-26):
Our God, whose Son upon a tree, A life was willing there to give, That He from sin might set man free, And evermore with Him could live.
Because we know that we serve a risen Savior, we see how He continues to help us in our daily walk with Him and prepares us for eternity, so we can declare to an unbelieving world that …
There is a God, He is alive, in Him we live, and we survive; From dust our God created man, He is our God, the great I AM.
