Yes, We Have Proof God Exists!

Believing in God Doesn’t Require “Blind Faith”…

Jun 17, 2025

Many people claim God doesn’t exist, and I often hear people say there’s no proof or evidence to believe in God’s existence. “You just have to accept it on faith,” they say. “There’s no evidence.” This statement is made as if it’s a fact. But is it? No way. Nothing could be further from the truth. People can prove God’s existence in numerous ways.

However, for me, one piece of evidence stands above all others. It’s inarguable. We can all see it. It’s a modern day miracle – proof of God’s existence in plain view of everyone living in the world today. What is this rock solid evidence?

It’s the modern day nation of Israel.

Evidence God Exists

Approximately 4,000 years ago, God promised Abraham:

“I will certainly bless you. I will multiply your descendants beyond number, like the stars in the sky and the sand on the seashore.” Genesis 22:17 (NLT)

and

“I will bless those who bless you and curse those who treat you with contempt. All the families on earth will be blessed through you.” Genesis 12:3 (NLT)

God kept these promises. We’re all witnesses. Despite centuries of persecution and national tragedy, both the Jewish people and the nation of Israel endure. How many other nations or peoples can make the same claim? How many other groups of people have been conquered, enslaved, and persecuted all over the world yet managed to not only survive, but retain their unique cultural, religious, and ethnic identity?

Only the Jewish people can make this claim.

And it’s proof the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is the one true God. Why do I say this? Because after all that’s happened over the centuries, the Jewish people continue to thrive and the nation of Israel still exists – just as God promised.

A Promise From God

Almost everyone knows the story of how God used Moses to deliver the Jewish people from Egyptian bondage. But thousands of years ago, God promised a day will come when the world will no longer refer to the God of Israel as the one who rescued His people from the land of Egypt. Instead, they will refer to Him as the one who brought His people back into the land of Israel from all the countries in the world where He had exiled them:

“But the time is coming,” says the Lord, “when people who are taking an oath will no longer say, ‘As surely as the Lord lives, who rescued the people of Israel from the land of Egypt.’ Instead, they will say, ‘As surely as the Lord lives, who brought the people of Israel back to their own land from the land of the north and from all the countries to which he had exiled them.’ For I will bring them back to this land that I gave their ancestors.” Jeremiah 16:14-15 (NLT)

This prophecy began its fulfillment nearly 2,000 years ago when Jesus told His disciples the Temple will be destroyed and the people of Israel will be scattered among the nations to serve as slaves. That happened in A.D. 70. Titus and the Roman legions attacked Jerusalem, destroyed the Temple, and took the surviving Israelites to every corner of the Roman Empire to serve as slaves. Any other nation would have been broken. Any other people would have assimilated into the surrounding nations over the course of the next 2,000 years.

History tells us this is true. After all, have you ever met a Carthaginian? How about a Babylonian?

Me neither.

Yet the Jewish people miraculously survived as a distinct people for nearly 2,000 years without a homeland of their own. And that’s not just in the face of Roman conquerors. They survived the Spanish Inquisition, Hitler’s Holocaust, and numerous other atrocities. How is this possible? There’s only one explanation – God said they would. The survival and success of the Jewish people proves God’s existence. But for those who need further convincing, God provided another miracle in our day and time – the miracle of the restored nation state of Israel itself.

The Rebirth of Israel

Again, how many conquered nations have reappeared? How many nations have been destroyed, their people taken to other lands to serve as slaves, and then nineteen centuries later, they reappear again as a nation state? As far as I can tell, only one – the nation of Israel. Not only is this a historical first, it was foretold more than 2,000 years in advance.

God promised the Jewish people they would survive and thrive despite the hardships they faced:

“But now, O Jacob, listen to the Lord who created you. O Israel, the one who formed you says, ‘Do not be afraid, for I have ransomed you. I have called you by name; you are mine. When you go through deep waters, I will be with you. When you go through rivers of difficulty, you will not drown. When you walk through the fire of oppression, you will not be burned up; the flames will not consume you. For I am the Lord, your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior. I gave Egypt as a ransom for your freedom; I gave Ethiopia and Seba in your place. Others were given in exchange for you. I traded their lives for yours because you are precious to me. You are honored, and I love you.’”
“Do not be afraid, for I am with you. I will gather you and your children from east and west. I will say to the north and south, ‘Bring my sons and daughters back to Israel from the distant corners of the earth. Bring all who claim me as their God, for I have made them for my glory. It was I who created them.’”
“Bring out the people who have eyes but are blind, who have ears but are deaf. Gather the nations together! Assemble the peoples of the world! Which of their idols has ever foretold such things? Which can predict what will happen tomorrow? Where are the witnesses of such predictions? Who can verify that they spoke the truth?”
“But you are my witnesses, O Israel!” says the Lord. “You are my servant. You have been chosen to know me, believe in me, and understand that I alone am God. There is no other God — there never has been, and there never will be. I, yes I, am the Lord, and there is no other Savior. First I predicted your rescue, then I saved you and proclaimed it to the world. No foreign god has ever done this. You are witnesses that I am the only God,” says the Lord. “From eternity to eternity I am God. No one can snatch anyone out of my hand. No one can undo what I have done.” Isaiah 43:1-13 (NLT)

He promised to call them from “among the nations”:

“Then my people will know that I am the Lord their God, because I sent them away to exile and brought them home again. I will leave none of my people behind.” Ezekiel 39:28 (NLT)

He promised to call them from “the farthest corners of the earth”:

“He will raise a flag among the nations and assemble the exiles of Israel. He will gather the scattered people of Judah from the ends of the earth.” Isaiah 11:12 (NLT)

As well as from “north, south, east, and west”:

“For he has gathered the exiles from many lands, from east and west, from north and south.” Psalm 107:3 (NLT)

He promised to bring the Israelites home and display His holiness to the nations:

“When I bring you home from exile, you will be like a pleasing sacrifice to me. And I will display my holiness through you as all the nations watch. Then when I have brought you home to the land I promised with a solemn oath to give to your ancestors, you will know that I am the Lord.” Ezekiel 20:41-42 (NLT)

He promised to welcome them home from the lands where they were scattered:

“And in anger I will reach out with my strong hand and powerful arm, and I will bring you back from the lands where you are scattered.” Ezekiel 20:34 (NLT)

He said He would restore them to the land of Israel from distant lands:

“This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: Write down for the record everything I have said to you, Jeremiah. For the time is coming when I will restore the fortunes of my people of Israel and Judah. I will bring them home to this land that I gave to their ancestors, and they will possess it again. I, the Lord, have spoken!” Jeremiah 30:2-3 (NLT)

and

“So do not be afraid, Jacob, my servant; do not be dismayed, Israel,” says the Lord. “For I will bring you home again from distant lands, and your children will return from their exile. Israel will return to a life of peace and quiet, and no one will terrorize them.” Jeremiah 30:10 (NLT)

And God promised, though scattered among the nations, His people would never forget Him, and He would bring them back into the land of Israel:

“Though I have scattered them like seeds among the nations, they will still remember me in distant lands. They and their children will survive and return again to Israel.” Zechariah 10:9 (NLT)

As early as the days of Moses, God made this promise:

“Even though you are banished to the ends of the earth, the Lord your God will gather you from there and bring you back again. The Lord your God will return you to the land that belonged to your ancestors, and you will possess that land again.” Deuteronomy 30:4-5 (NLT)

God kept His promise. Modern day Israel is the proof.

So What Happens Next?

The existence of the Jewish people in the reborn nation of Israel should convince anyone the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is real. His fulfilled promises are on full display in our own day and time. But God made additional promises as well. He said when He brings His people back into the land of Israel, the desert will bloom:

“Even the wilderness and desert will be glad in those days. The wasteland will rejoice and blossom with spring crocuses.” Isaiah 35:1 (NLT)

And the Lord will return to destroy Israel’s enemies:

“Yes, there will be an abundance of flowers and singing and joy! The deserts will become as green as the mountains of Lebanon, as lovely as Mount Carmel or the plain of Sharon. There the Lord will display his glory, the splendor of our God. With this news, strengthen those who have tired hands, and encourage those who have weak knees. Say to those with fearful hearts, ‘Be strong, and do not fear, for your God is coming to destroy your enemies. He is coming to save you.’” Isaiah 35:2-4 (NLT)

Through Jeremiah, God said once He brings His people back into the land, He will raise up a righteous king who will rule the land with wisdom – the long-awaited Messiah:

“But I will gather together the remnant of my flock from the countries where I have driven them. I will bring them back to their own sheepfold, and they will be fruitful and increase in number. Then I will appoint responsible shepherds who will care for them, and they will never be afraid again. Not a single one will be lost or missing. I, the Lord, have spoken!”
“For the time is coming,” says the Lord, “when I will raise up a righteous descendant from King David’s line. He will be a King who rules with wisdom. He will do what is just and right throughout the land. And this will be his name: ‘The Lord Is Our Righteousness.’ In that day Judah will be saved, and Israel will live in safety.” Jeremiah 23:3-6 (NLT)

Through the prophet Micah, God promised to gather His exiles and form them into a strong nation. Then, He promised to rule from Jerusalem as their king forever:

“In that coming day,” says the Lord, “I will gather together those who are lame, those who have been exiles, and those whom I have filled with grief. Those who are weak will survive as a remnant; those who were exiles will become a strong nation. Then I, the Lord, will rule from Jerusalem as their king forever.” Micah 4:6-7 (NLT)

Over and over again, the prophet Isaiah relayed God’s promise to bring back the exiled people of Israel and form a new nation.

Through Isaiah, God promised to restore the nation of Israel and raise its flag among the nations:

“He will raise a flag among the nations and assemble the exiles of Israel. He will gather the scattered people of Judah from the ends of the earth.” Isaiah 11:12 (NLT)

And then? Then He promised the wolf and the lamb will lie together. Leopards will lie down with goats. Even a baby will play with a cobra and not be bitten:

“In that day the wolf and the lamb will live together; the leopard will lie down with the baby goat. The calf and the yearling will be safe with the lion, and a little child will lead them all. The cow will graze near the bear. The cub and the calf will lie down together. The lion will eat hay like a cow. The baby will play safely near the hole of a cobra. Yes, a little child will put its hand in a nest of deadly snakes without harm. Nothing will hurt or destroy in all my holy mountain, for as the waters fill the sea, so the earth will be filled with people who know the Lord.” Isaiah 11:6-9 (NLT)

How is this? Because the heir to David’s throne (Jesus Christ) will rule over the nations, transforming the world into a place of peace and tranquility:

“In that day the heir to David’s throne will be a banner of salvation to all the world. The nations will rally to him, and the land where he lives will be a glorious place.” Isaiah 11:10 (NLT)

And when does God say this will happen? After His people are re-gathered from distant lands and the ends of the earth:

“In that day the Lord will reach out his hand a second time to bring back the remnant of his people — those who remain in Assyria and northern Egypt; in southern Egypt, Ethiopia, and Elam; in Babylonia, Hamath, and all the distant coastlands. He will raise a flag among the nations and assemble the exiles of Israel. He will gather the scattered people of Judah from the ends of the earth.” Isaiah 11:11-12 (NLT)

He would do this after Israel is reborn as a single, unified nation:

“Then at last the jealousy between Israel and Judah will end. They will not be rivals anymore.” Isaiah 11:13 (NLT)

In other words, in our day and time. Because the Bible says shortly after Israel is restored, Jesus will return to earth and rule from Jerusalem!

God didn’t promise to restore Israel and then send the Messiah a thousand years later. The prophets intimately linked these two events – the restoration of Israel as a nation state and the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. And they’re not the only ones. Jesus Himself did. He said:

“And Jerusalem will be trampled by the Gentiles until the period of the Gentiles comes to an end.” Luke 21:24 (NLT)

Today, the Jewish people control Jerusalem. It’s the capital of Israel. And Jesus also said:

“So when all these things begin to happen, stand and look up, for your salvation is near!” Luke 21:28 (NLT)

The things Jesus and the prophets said to look for are here. Israel is a nation again. The Gentiles no longer control Jerusalem. So look up. Jesus is coming!
