Dear friends, the Living God is the eternal source of life, breath, and being. He exists not only in the past or the future, but He is very much present and active in our lives today. Brother and sister, this God is not a silent observer but takes an active role in our daily existence, listening to our prayers and intervening for our betterment.
The beauty of the Living God is that while He is infinite and beyond our comprehension, He still desires to have a personal relationship with each of us. Unlike the idols or deities of old that neither see nor hear, our God is alive, responding, and actively involved in our well-being.
Remember the story of Elijah, who mocked the false prophets for their god’s silence? It was the Living God who answered with fire, proving His undeniable existence and supreme power. In the same way, our God continuously shows His presence through miracles, signs, and wonders in our lives. He’s not distant or uncaring. He knows our every thought, feels our every emotion, and understands our deepest desires.
When we look at the universe, the intricate details of nature, or the complexity of our bodies, it’s evident that the Living God is not just a passive force but an active designer. Every sunrise, every heartbeat, and every moment testifies to His living nature.
