Do You Live that "Our God, He Is Alive"?
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.
