References the second coming of Christ (Matthew 24:43, Acts 1:9-11, 1 Corinthians 11:26, 1 Thessalonians 5:2-4, 2 Peter 3:10, and Revelation 16:15). There’s a hint of an explanation later in the song as to why He did that. That is, there’s a reason why Christ’s blood was spilled. References Genesis 3:22-24, where Adam and Eve were exiled from the Garden of Eden because they ate the forbidden fruit (Genesis 3:6). The idiom “putting on the ritz” means to behave in an arrogant, self-important, extravagant way. This is the first of many reasons Mullins offers to show that God is awesome. God’s displays of signs and wonders point us to Himself (Exodus 4:1-9, Psalm 19:1-4, Acts 4:30, and Romans 15:19). It is not for the sake of glitz and glamor that there’s lighting and peals of thunder (Exodus 19:16, Exodus 20:18, Ezekiel 1:13, Psalm 18:13-14, Revelation 4:5, Revelation 8:5, Revelation 11:19, and Revelation 16:17-18). Our God’s displays of signs and wonders are not without purpose. How much of the lyrics line up with Scripture? Side Note: To those who are sensitive to massive repetition, the line “Our God is an awesome God”, repeats 27 times in the song.
He rules wisely, with strength, and through love.
He died for our sins, making forgiveness possible.
He ejected Adam and Eve from Eden and destroyed Sodom, to show that He will judge people for sinning. He demonstrates His power through signs and wonders. The single point is “Our God is an awesome God”. This song follows a similar format to Psalm 136, where a single point repeats and the rest of the lines support it.
