"The funny thing about miracles... They happen every day"
— God to Mazikeen
in "Resting Devil Face"

God is a central character in Lucifer. He is one of the non-corporeal co-creators of the Universe along with His Goddess wife and the Father of all Angels. When He became obsessed with the creation of Humanity, His son Samael staged a rebellion in an effort to usurp the throne. Winning against his revolt, God banished him to Hell as its Sovereign to redeem the souls of the damned. God mainly remained unseen from Humanity, wanting His creations to make their own life choices without His interference. Religions base their beliefs on perceptions of God's wishes, routinely leading to wars.

However, God did interfere in some instances. He sent Amenadiel to curse Cain for killing his younger brother and sent the Goddess to Hell when She began interfering with Humanity. Further, he had a hand in the creation of Chloe Decker and orchestrated events so she and Lucifer could eventually be in each other's lives, setting Lucifer on a path towards returning to Hell as its healer even though apparently He sent Amenadiel to bring him back to the Underworld after he vacated it in 2011. After Lucifer made a deal with God to save Chloe's life, He sent His son on a mission to find Goddess, who had escaped from Hell.

After infighting between his angelic children escalated, God visited Earth for the first time in several millennia, creating a Human body for himself, to break up the fight. Having put on the façade that He'd been manipulated by Michael into thinking He was losing control of His powers, God announced His retirement, prompting a power struggle to replace Him as God. Though Michael's manipulation was eventually revealed by Amenadiel, God still decides to retire and later reconciles with Goddess, ultimately deciding to spend the rest of eternity with Her in Goddess' universe and leaving the management of Heaven and Earth to His children.

Biography[]

History[]

Creation of the Universe[]

At the dawn of time, God and the Goddess created the Universe via a literal "Big Bang", which resulted in not only all of Creation, but in the birth of the Angels, who sprung into existence fully formed.[1] [2] He created Angels to self-actualize, resulting in their physical appearance and powers to be affected based on how they subconsciously feel about themselves.[3] God chose not to tell his children about their true nature, believing that allowing them to discover it for themselves would empower them.[4]

When God started developing Earth, He created the Dinosaurs. He believed they would be fine, before they were wiped out by a meteor.[5] After their extinction, He started working on Humanity. When He began to obsess about Humans, His relationship with His Wife fell apart.[1]

Samael's Heavenly Rebellion[]

God's obsession with humanity eventually led him to turn away from his family. Samael changed his name to "Lucifer" and, with several other Angels, planned to rebel against their Father, believing that he could do better than God could.[1] After being reunited with his son, God mentions that found Lucifer's "temper-tantrum" adorable.[5]

After the rebellion failed, the Goddess begged God to send Lucifer to Hell, believing that God was angry enough to wipe their son from existence.[6] God banished Lucifer to Hell, a place where the souls of Humans who suffered from guilt spent their eternity[7]. God's banishment made it so Lucifer would be destroyed if he ever returned to Heaven.[8] It is later implied that God foresaw a future Lucifer would rehabilitate the souls of Hell[9] and that His eldest son, Amenadiel would eventually take his place as God.[10]

After sending Lucifer to Hell, God broke the Flaming Sword apart, though He led others to believe He destroyed it after Lucifer's rebellion.[11] God entrusted the Blade of Death to Azrael and the the Key to ignite the sword to Amenadiel.[12] The Medallion Of Life ended up on Earth.[13] The details of God breaking the Flaming Sword in three parts were eventually transcribed in a book written in Sumerian sometime around the Bronze Age. Within it, it read that God entrusted the Key to His favorite son.[12] After the rebellion, God kept his distance from many of his children.[14]

The First Humans[]

God's work on Humanity resulted in Adam, the first man. He and his wife, Lilith, lived in the Garden of Eden before she was banished by God from the Garden. After Lilith started having children of her own, Demons, and sending them to Hell to be Lucifer's army,[15] God had Hell made specifically that only an Angel can rule.[16]God then made Eve from Adam's rib, and the two lived in the Garden of Eden until Lucifer corrupted them by introducing them to the knowledge between good and evil, and God sent them from the garden to live out their lives as the first Humans.[2] While they were on Earth, God gave Adam the assignment to name all the animals.[17]

Marking Cain[]

When Adam and Eve's son, Cain, killed his brother, Abel, God cursed Cain to everlasting life, to wander the world alone, even methods able to kill Angels were unable to kill Cain.[18] He had Amenadiel brand Cain with an eternal mark, in order to forever remind Cain of what he did.[19] Sometime after Humanity started growing, God made His number one rule for His angelic children; they weren't allowed to kill Humans.[20]

Banishing Goddess[]

A few thousand years after Lucifer's banishment, Goddess started creating floods and plagues to destroy Humanity because God was paying more attention to them instead of Her.[6] As a result, God banished His Wife to Hell, having Amenadiel fly Her down.[21] However, as a "one-off", God did cause Noah's flood.[22]

Interpreted by Humanity[]

Throughout the centuries, different religions' views on what God wanted differed from each other. Some civilizations even went to war believing what they were doing was what He wanted. Through it all, however, God chose not to intervene and say what He truly wanted, free will was something He would not interfere in.[23] From time to time, He would send an emissary like Amenadiel to Earth to deal with it, or in some instances, a "burning bush."[13] God also granted some Humans psychic abilities.[14]

Redeeming the Wayward Son[]

Gift from God[]

Circa 1981, God ordered Amenadiel to go down to Earth and bless a couple who were not able to have a child. The couple was John and Penelope Decker, parents of Chloe Jane Decker. Nine months after Amenadiel's visit, Chloe Decker was born. That was the first and only time God asked Amenadiel to do anything like that.[24] It is implied that Chloe was meant to cross paths with Lucifer, so he could form a connection with a Human who was immune to his ability to reflect ones desires, and would see him as he truly was.[25]

Sending Lucifer Back to Hell[]

Throughout the years, Lucifer would spend time on Earth for recreation; God sent Amenadiel to get him back to Hell each time, as it wasn't time yet for him to be on Earth. In 2011, Lucifer had grown tired with ruling Hell, and moved to Los Angeles; however, because Amenadiel made a promise to leave Lucifer alone after Lucifer helped him recover his necklace, he could not force Lucifer back.[26] By 2016, Amenadiel claimed God sent him once more to ask Lucifer to return to Hell; however, this happened on the day Lucifer first met Chloe, and Lucifer refused.[7]

Crossing Paths with Father Frank[]

7024

In 2016, Lucifer crosses paths with Fr. Frank Lawrence, a Catholic priest, who he bonds with over a shared love of music. When Fr. Frank is mortally wounded, the priest comforts Lucifer by saying God meant for them to meet and whispers, "Your Father has a plan for you", implying that he knew Lucifer's true identity. That night, Lucifer, distraught over Frank's murder, angrily shouted at God at his penthouse's balcony to give him answers as to why He allowed a good man like Frank to die despite following His rules; God didn't answer.[27]

Deal with Lucifer[]

When Lucifer was mortally wounded by Malcolm Graham, Lucifer prayed to his Father, wanting to make a deal: he would be the son He wanted if He protected Chloe. Once Lucifer had died and entered Hell, God showed him Goddess's empty cell. He then resurrected His son using Lucifer's Pentecostal Coin.[28] Lucifer believed his Father wanted Lucifer to bring Goddess back to Hell. [28]

During Goddess' time on Earth with Lucifer and Amenadiel, Uriel became concerned that She would make it back to Heaven and destroy their Father. Believing he knew what God wanted, Uriel took Azrael's Blade and attempted to eradicate Goddess. He was unfortunately eradicated himself, which was the doing of Lucifer.[23] Heartbroken over the loss of their son, Goddess attempted to reach out to God so they could mourn together, but while aware of his death, He didn't respond to Her prayers.[29]

Lucifer and Goddess eventually reconciled with each before Lucifer used the Flaming Sword to send Her to Her own universe to start over.[30]

Figuring out God's Mysterious Ways[]

After Lucifer gave Goddess her own universe and chose to come clean with Chloe about who he was, his wings returned and his Devil face disappeared. He came to believe this was God punishing him for letting Goddess off the hook[31], but later believed it was Him using Lucifer as a tool to prevent Cain from enacting his plan to get rid of his curse. In response to this manipulation, Lucifer and Cain formed an alliance to get back at God by finally freeing Cain of his curse.[32]

With Amenadiel, having his faith in his Father restored after learning He entrusted the Key to the Flaming Sword to him, believed God was testing him to redeem Lucifer in order to regain his divinity.[33] However, after many failed endeavors and interpretations of what God wanted, Amenadiel finally came to the realization that God was never responsible for anything that happened to either him or Lucifer, figuring out they self-actualize.[34] Once he conveyed this epiphany to Lucifer, the Fallen Angel realized he was right, and that both his Devil face and wings were his doing alone, and had nothing to do with God punishing him.[35]

Alternate Universe[]

God created an alternate universe where John Decker was not killed, causing Chloe to remain an actress rather than become a cop. This caused a butterfly affect, where everyone in Lucifer and Chloe's lives in the original universe were altered in this new one. However, in the end, Chloe and Lucifer still united to solve the murder of someone close to Chloe who happened to be killed at Lux. God too notes that some people manage to find one another, regardless of the circumstances.[36]

Manipulated by Michael[]

Sometime after Amenadiel became stranded on Earth, Michael became God's right-hand; Michael manipulated the situation so he was the only one allowed to talk with Him in the Silver City.[37] The Archangel started using his Fear Exhibition to manipulate his Father into believing He was losing control of His powers so Michael could usurp the throne. God, however, was aware of what His son was up too and chose to play along, as He knew that Michael would be defeated by Lucifer[38] and Amenadiel would take His place.[10]

Relieving Amenadiel[]

Eventually Lucifer returned to Hell to keep the Demons in line after they revolted.[16] When Amenadiel temporarily took over as Ruler of Hell so Lucifer could return to Earth to deal with Michael, God actually spoke to His son while he was wandering the Underworld's corridors and told him that Hell no longer required a warden. This allowed Amenadiel to return to Earth and relay the message to Lucifer.[25]

Returning to Earth[]

Family Squabble[]

God didn't return to Earth following His creation for thousands of years. Eventually, God realized He had to take direct action after Amenadiel unintentionally froze time and he, Lucifer, Michael, and Mazikeen started all fighting in the frozen Los Angeles precinct. He created a physical form for Himself and appeared before His three Archangel children, a bright light appearing behind Him, to halt their sibling squabble.[39]

Lucifer First minutes from Family Dinner

God appears to halt His children's fighting.

After commenting on how He doesn't like it when they fight, God's three sons retracted their wings. Each tried to give their own explanation of who started the conflict, but God ultimately didn't care, stating that He wants His sons to get along regardless of what's happened as they're family. While Amenadiel and Michael try to oblige to their Father's wishes, Lucifer refuses to forgive Michael for the chaos he wreaked and attempted to storm out. To stop His wayward son from leaving, God referred to him by his given name.

God cradles Charlie

God then stood back as His estranged son accused Him of not stopping Michael despite being omnipotent before storming out of the precinct. Noticing His grandson, Charlie, God smiled and headed over to the frozen Linda Martin to see him. He picked him up to cradle him before using His chronokinesis ability to unfreeze time. After time started again, God was asked who He was by Linda, only for Him and Amenadiel to just smile.[4]

Trying to Unite the Family[]

God gives his gratitude to Linda

God gives his gratitude to Linda Martin.

After introducing Himself to Linda, He and Amenadiel were taken back to her house, where He continued to cradle His grandson. He was poked by Linda in the shoulder, who was having a hard time accepting He was in her house. He, however, assured her that it was fine as He was "eternally grateful" for the grandchild she gave Him, cooing at how adorable he was.

While Linda went to get God a drink, Amenadiel approached his Father to tell Him Lucifer was telling the truth regarding Michael, but God wasn't concerned by it, deeming family as the most important thing. When Amenadiel tried to ask Him about Charlie's mortality, God cut him off before he could finish, by referring to him as adorable and deciding He knew just what his Celestial family needed to bring them together; a family dinner.

The following day, God went to invite Lucifer to the dinner while he was working on a murder case at The Kingdom, a mini-golf place. Approaching His son with a putter, He noticed him staring longingly at Chloe, and asked him what romantic thing he's going to say to her. After Lucifer kicked His golf ball away, he angrily asked why He was even bothering asking since He was omnipotent. Knowing Lucifer was going to kick His golf ball, God took out another one and simply said it was His father's intuition.

As He prepared to take a swing, Lucifer demanded to know why He was still on Earth, as wouldn't the Universe collapse with His presence on Earth. After making a hole-in-one in a church golf course, God assured Lucifer that it was fine. Just as Lucifer was about to walk off, God grabbed his shoulder and told him that He had come to ask him something.

Lucifer agreed to hear his Father out, but when God gave him his invitation to the family dinner, Lucifer swiftly declined. As he was about to head over to Chloe to assist with the case, God told His son that He didn't want to leave Earth until they all talked through their issues, but that did little to change Lucifer's mind and he stormed off. God, however, wasn't concerned, as He knew His son would eventually reconsider and come to the dinner.[4]

Talk with Mazikeen[]

God returned to Linda's house to prepare the dinner while she took Charlie for a walk. He sent Michael to Florence to get chocolate as part of dinner preparations, and had Amenadiel talk to Lucifer to persuade him to reconsider. Aware that Maze would be arriving to ask Him for a soul, He prepared what would become her favorite drink.

As God was chopping vegetables, Maze tried to sneak up behind Him, but God knew she was there, and greeted her with the drink He made for her. Despite Maze deeming the drink as okay, God knew she loved it, as she guzzled it down as He turn around. After He tells her where everyone was, He gave her permission to give Him her request. When she asked for a soul, God questioned why she wanted one. She answered as she felt alone.

Knowing Maze had already grown a soul by herself, He told her she was perfect just the way she was. When Maze exposed her Demon face, God remained calm and told her that He would never change who she was. Thinking, however, that God refused to believe He made a mistake in creating Demons, Maze stormed out, leaving God to sigh in disappointment that she didn't understand what He was trying to say.[4]

Family Dinner[]

With their family dinner about to begin, God sat at the head of the table. Though Michael apologized for Lucifer's absence, God wasn't surprised when His son arrived with soufflé. After Lucifer sat at the other end of the table, God thanked him for showing up. He then stopped Linda from leaving, saying she was a part of their family as she was His grandson's mother.

Family Dinner

Michael complimented God's cooking, but before he could start eating, Lucifer reminded him that they needed to say grace. God listened to Linda's grace, which was a directionless ramble of things she was grateful for to Him, before Lucifer cut her off and finished it for her. God, however, assured her that her grace was beautiful and gave everyone permission to start eating.

God started serving Himself before Amenadiel handed Him the chicken dish. Before He could start eating, Linda complimented the chicken, to which God responded that all it took was just the right amount of rosemary. God then listened to Lucifer attempts to disrupt the dinner. He listed all the villainous deeds Michael committed on Earth, but God wasn't fazed by His son's actions. When Michael and Lucifer started referring to each other by their birthnames, God remembered how He enjoyed how their names rhymed. Things only got awkward when Lucifer revealed that Amenadiel called God a "Real Ass," but He assured his eldest son that it was okay.

God affecting the weather

God causes a thunderstorm to stop the fighting.

Lucifer then started asking God all sorts of questions; Why He never told them that they self-actualize and that they were never being punished by Him, but God didn't answer them. However, when Lucifer questioned why Hell no longer needed a warden, all God said was that He had a good reason for it, which annoyed Lucifer. When Lucifer and Michael started arguing over who got the worse upbringing, God started to lose His temper and forced the candles on the table to go out. As the fight was about to escalate, God silenced them by starting a thunderstorm.

After He reignited the candles with His mind, and Lucifer and Michael returned to their seats, the former of the twins commented on His "Old Testament wrath." God became disappointed that it was too much to ask for a nice family dinner. Things became even more awkward when Linda starting to laugh ecstatically over figuring out that chicken was God's favorite.

God then listened to Lucifer berate Him as a bad father, even questioning if Amenadiel would raise Charlie the same way He did to them. God waited for His answer, only to be saddened that His eldest son hoped he wouldn't. When Lucifer continued to call God out on how much He "screwed [them] up," God apologized that he felt that way. He defended His actions as wanting to empower His children, to get them to make their own choices.

Lucifer then demanded to get "one simple answer" to "one simple question," causing Michael to assure their Father that He didn't have to buy into Lucifer's goading, but God raised His hand towards His second-in-command to silence him. He gave Lucifer permission to ask, but when his question was whether or not He loved them, God caused a strike of thunder due to feeling the question was uncalled for.

He looked around at everyone's eager faces to hear the answer, only to simply state that if He had to tell them that He loved them, rather than them already knowing, then He had truly failed in raising them. Believing he had his answer, Lucifer stated that God was incapable of love, resulting in God causing more thunder in response to the insult, before leaving. The remaining four sat in silence, before Linda awkwardly offered more wine.[4]

Staying a While Longer[]

The following day, God and Amenadiel cleaned up from the diner, and Amenadiel asked God again if Charlie was mortal. Rather than tell Amenadiel that he wasn't, He gave him a cryptic answer of that 'it appears to be the case.' When Amenadiel begged God to make him Human and Charlie an Angel to spare his son the trauma of being Human, God refused.

At that moment, Michael arrived and asked God if He was ready to for their return to Heaven. God asked if Michael was ready, and when the angel confirmed he was, God told his son to go home without Him, deciding to stay on Earth a little longer, much to Amenadiel's surprise. When Michael tried to stay with Him, God refused, stating that Michael was no longer welcome on Earth, effectively banishing him.

Michael questioned why he was the one being punished, but God assured His son that he wasn't. After the Archangel left in a huff, God stated to Amenadiel that what He had to do with Michael was an example of how fatherhood was never easy. He then asked if Amenadiel had a futon He could sleep on.[4]

Bloody Celestial Karaoke Jam[]

Making People Sing and Dance[]

God applauds Lucifer's performance

The next day, God went to see Lucifer in his penthouse, only to become mesmerized by Lucifer singing Wicked Game on the piano, remembering what a beautiful voice he had. After he finished, God applauded His son, but Lucifer ignored His praise and instead asked why He was still on Earth. God told him He was staying a while and revealed He sent Michael back to Heaven when Lucifer believed the duo would wreak more havoc together.

When Lucifer asked why God was choosing to stay on Earth longer, He simply questioned if He needed a reason to visit his children. Lucifer refused to give his Father attention, and, when He referred to Lucifer as Samael again, he refused to answer to it and pushed Him to the elevator, demanding He stay away from him. God then sadly left His son alone.

A few hours later, when Lucifer was at a crime scene at the Cathedral High School football field, Gold altered reality to make people sing and dance Another One Bites the Dust, including Lucifer. After the song, God was spotted by Lucifer and he stormed over to Him. When asked why He was here, God said He wanted to see what Lucifer does as a police assistant, only for Lucifer to correct Him as a consultant.

God questioned how he knew He was there, but Lucifer tells Him that everyone singing and dancing gave His presence away. God commented that it was fun though, which Lucifer couldn't disagree with, but insisted that it wasn't what happened at crime scenes. God assured him that He understood and that it wouldn't happen again, only for another musical number of teenagers to be happening in back of Him, God smiling at Lucifer.

God meets Chloe Decker

God meets Chloe Decker.

After Lucifer went to go talk to Chloe, God observed their conversation, before she went over to Him. She introduced herself before chastising Him for the way He neglected Lucifer for thousands of years just because he acted out. Unfazed, God said it was nice to finally meet her. He took note of how much she cared for His son, and thought Lucifer was lucky to have her. When Chloe was about to bring up being a gift, Lucifer escorted her away from the All Mighty before God could answer.

God later showed up in the observation room at the precinct after Lucifer and Chloe brought in a suspect and his mother and made Lucifer and the mother sing Every Breath You Take. Lucifer stood in front of the two-way mirror to the observation room, knowing God was watching them and sang with disdain, but God just continued to smile. After the song was over, He disappeared.[40]

Bonding with Lucifer[]

God and Lucifer decide to work on their relationship

God and Lucifer decide to work on their relationship.

God was then invited by Lucifer to stay at his penthouse, His son offering Him the bed while he took the sofa. God, knowing His son wouldn't change his mind about spending time with Him without ulterior motives, asked him what this was really about. When Lucifer told Him he wanted to repair their broken relationship so he could have a proper relationship with Chloe, God agreed to give it a try.

Lucifer took God to the precinct to show Him where he worked, even offering Him a sprinkled doughnut. God, however, declined, preferring a different kind of doughnut, but thanked His son nonetheless. With the tour apparently over, He asked where Lucifer's "throne" was, confusing it for his "seat of power," recalling that he said he was important at the precinct. Lucifer, however, told Him that he didn't have an office, as he preferred to be ready for action.

When God asked if he had at least a desk, Dan Espinoza arrived at his, causing Lucifer to request that Dan tell God how important he was. Though Dan was too preoccupied to pay attention, God took note of Dan's desk and believed that he was a man of great importance and that if Lucifer work hard enough, he might rise to Dan's level. When God started examining Dan's nameplate, the Detective took it back and questioned who He was, only to be in awe that it was God.

God vaguely threatens Dan

Dan embarrassingly introduced himself to God, even hugging Him, before God acknowledged Dan as the man who slept with His Ex-Wife while She was inhabiting Charlotte Richards's body. After vaguely threatening Dan as He adjusted his jacket, Lucifer led Him away to check out the vending machines. As they walked away, God altered reality again to make Maze sing Bad to the Bone and Ella Lopez sing No Scrubs.

When they got to the kitchen, much to Lucifer's exasperation, God spat the coffee he made for Him in the garbage. Chloe then arrived to see how the two were doing, only for Lucifer to insist she try his coffee to prove it was delicious. Seeing her reluctance, God assured her it was fine, but she refused to get in the middle of their issues and left. God believed Lucifer made Chloe uncomfortable, only for His son to take Him to Linda's office to get her advice.

God and Lucifer in therapy

God and Lucifer in therapy.

God and Lucifer sat at opposite ends of the therapy sofa and gazed away from each other before Linda tried starting their therapy session. The Father-Son duo began to snipe at each other before Linda silenced them and asked God if Lucifer has done anything to anger Him. God chuckled at that idea, saying He wasn't mad about anything. Lucifer, however, found that hard to believe since He banished him to Hell, and believed He did it because He was mad that Lucifer threatened his "superhero status".

God insisted it was impossible to make Lucifer happy as no matter what He did, gave His opinion or let him make his own decisions, he would always assume the worst possible intention. Lucifer said it was because nothing was ever good enough for Him, listing all the things He judged him about since He's been on Earth, though God argued that He was trying to take an interest in His son's life.

When Lucifer revealed that God turned the morning crime scene into a music video, God stated that he recalled Lucifer enjoying himself. Before the two could start an argument, Linda halted them and started calling the two out on how they were worse than Humanity since they've had thousands of years to work through their issues but haven't. When Linda insisted that a good father loves their son unconditionally, all be it in a very off way, God believed He understood what she meant. He moved toward Lucifer, placing His hands on top of His son's, and told him that He was going to be supportive from now on, which only freaked Lucifer out.

God was then taken to the Benedict Canyon High School locker room by Lucifer so they could interrogate their next suspect in the murder case. He took an interest in a jockstrap, but Lucifer took it away, deeming that it was a part of Humanity He didn't want to experience. He then started complementing Lucifer nonstop, even trying to play catch with him, only for it to bounce off Lucifer's chest. God simply complemented his "block."

When Coach Dale McVey arrived, God continued to be supportive of His son by bragging to the coach on how important of a consultant he was to the LAPD, much to Lucifer's embarrassment. God then listened to Chloe's conversation with McVey over Steve Rockwell's murder, and asked McVey not to bring Him into his feelings over Steve when he used His name to describe his attitude.

After Lucifer used his mojo on McVey to get him to cooperate, God complimented his use of his special talent and described it as a team effort since He made him self-actualize his abilities. When He tried to high five him, Lucifer denied it. He then listened in silence as they continued to question McVey, before giving Lucifer a noogie after he was able to get McVey to hand over his keys to his truck for processing.

God enjoying the musical number

God enjoying the musical number.

God and Lucifer returned to Lux, where the nightclub was in the middle of a music number, as God had manipulated reality to have Dan sing "Hell." Though God complimented the "lively place" Lucifer had created for himself, His son demanded He stop the "bloody celestial karaoke jam" immediately. God agreed to abide to His son's request just as soon as the current dance number was over. He then started dancing, joyfully commanding His "children" to dance.

The next morning, God made breakfast and coffee for Lucifer; going to Bolivia to get the latter, meeting a wonderful farmer named Jesús. He woke the naked Devil up by wishing him good morning, who was embarrassed by God's lack of boundaries. God, however, revealed He's seen him and many others naked in the penthouse and went off listing the locations, before Lucifer requested, He stop and took the tray.

God asked how the coffee tasted, but Lucifer played it off as bitter. He then started telling Lucifer about his adventure to Bolivia when asked where he got the coffee. This caused Lucifer to break and confess that it was incredible, and that God won again. God told His son that He wasn't trying to win, but only wanted what was best for him, which the Archangel acknowledged. God then excitedly asked when they would return to work, but Lucifer, instead, revealed he was going back to work and suggested God visit Amenadiel.[40]

Father-Son Duet[]

God questions His parenting skills

God questions His parenting skills.

God took Lucifer's advice and watched Amenadiel and Linda sing and dance Just the Two of Us while spending time with Charlie. After the song was over, God frowned to Himself regarding His own parenting compared to Amenadiel's. He then visited Chloe's apartment that night, where He had Trixie Espinoza sing Smile to Chloe in regard to her relationship with Lucifer. Deciding against a talk with Chloe, He went back to Lucifer's penthouse.

Once Lucifer returned, He questioned how his day went, only for Lucifer to give a sarcastic remark regarding the case. God informed Lucifer how He took his advice to see Amenadiel and proudly commented on what a great father he will be to Charlie. Seeing Lucifer was feeling low He nearly called him by his original name, but instead, finally addressed His son as Lucifer.

God was happy Lucifer was alright after he explained he had conflict with their suspect, but that only infuriated Lucifer more as he reminded Him that he was invulnerable. God picked up on this being Lucifer deflecting, forcing His son to let out his feeling of abandonment and how Him unable to admit His love for them has ruined the relationship he had with Chloe, as he believes he inherited God's lack of love.

Lucifer and God sing a duet

God and Lucifer sing a duet.

After that outburst of emotion from His son, God altered reality one last time to force Lucifer to sing I Dreamed a Dream. He then joined in halfway through, and the two performed a duet, which helped express their inner struggles with each other. At the conclusion, as Lucifer started crying, God comforted His son stating that Lucifer is so blind with self-loathing, he can't see the light within himself.

God confesses His lack of control

God confesses His lack of control.

He tells the distraught Lucifer that while He's sorry he's angry with Him, He can't fix him; only Lucifer can do that. This caused Lucifer to insist his Father stop trying to control him like He just did with the song. God then reveals to Lucifer that He believes He's "losing control" of his powers, much to Lucifer's surprise and dismay.[40]

Being Human for the Day[]

Making Himself Useful[]

The next day, God decided to make Himself useful and fix some loose water valves at Lux. While He was in the middle of his work behind the bar, Lucifer and Amenadiel arrived looking for Him. When His bewildered sons questioned what He was doing, He explained how He wanted to help, while also making an inside joke to Noah's Flood, which Amenadiel chuckled at, while Lucifer was less than amused.

Getting back on topic as to why the two wanted to talk with Him, Amenadiel brought up God revealing His powers acting up to Lucifer last night. He, however, assured His two sons that while it was taking a while for Him adjusting to life on Earth, everything was fine now. To reinforce His claims, He noted that He hasn't caused a "musical interlude" recently.

He then went back to work after having Amenadiel give Him the 3/8 socket wrench. Lucifer, however, wouldn't let God "glitching" go and questioned why He hasn't gone home yet. God repeated that He just wants to help Lucifer, but the latter angrily persisted that he doesn't want His Father's help with all the things He's done, which included having the soda dispenser at the precinct pumping Pinot Noir.

With Lucifer getting a reminder to go to work, he told God they would discuss the matter of Him staying on Earth later. God agreed and decided to tighten Lux's "wobbling dancing poll" while He waited for Lucifer to return. He grabbed His power drill and went back to work.[5]

The Whole Kit and Kaboodle[]

Despite agreeing to talk with Lucifer when he returned from work, God went to the precinct. When He arrived, He was intercepted by Dan. The Detective apologized for sleeping with His Ex-Wife, while also nervously shaking His hand, but the co-creator of the Universe assured the scared Detective that everything was "as it should be."

However, God soon dropped His joyful demeanor and started crushing Dan's hand using his super strength. As he pleaded for Him to let go, God caused him to explode as revenge for sleeping with Goddess. After Dan's remains splattered all over the precinct, the officers present, and Lucifer, God reversed time to just before Dan exploded. Having Dan remember the experience of being blown up, God watched with a small smile as the Detective backed away bewilderedly to his desk.

Lucifer, who remembered the whole thing, demanded to know if He intentionally exploded Dan. God, however, played it off as Him intentionally "putting him back together." He noted the Detective was fine when Lucifer started berating Him for His actions, but Lucifer wasn't convinced and continued to insist God go back to Heaven before He endangers his loved ones. Chloe then arrived to inform Lucifer of a murder, and while he was distracted, God vanished.

Taking Lucifer's fears and His desire to bond with His son seriously, God made Himself Human to experience Lucifer's life as a consultant firsthand. He placed His powers in Charlie's raddle for safekeeping. God then arrived at the crime scene Lucifer and Chloe were at and happily waved at His son behind the yellow tape.

As Lucifer angrily marched up to his Father, God joyfully told the officer guarding the scene that that was His son coming up to them. When Lucifer was about to start chastising God for putting Humanity in danger, He halted Lucifer by assuring him that His powers glitching won't be an issue anymore; He excitedly announced that He made Himself Human, much to Lucifer's dismay.

God admitted that Lucifer was right, which the Fallen Angel found amusing, and realized that before He can be supportive of him, He had to understand him. He believed to accomplish that, He should shadow Lucifer at his job, since He's noticed how His son has matured in his time with the LAPD and wanted to be a "party to that knowledge."

Then, as God winked at Lucifer in an attempt to be humorous, He became fascinated at the idea of it becoming dark when Humans closed their eyes. He closed both and asked if Lucifer was still there, despite their being nothing in front of Him. When Lucifer annoyingly confirmed his continued presence, God opened His eyes and gawked at the concept of it being dark when you close your eyes, only to have light return when you open them.

Chloe then joined their conversation and asked if God could use His omnipotent powers to lead them to the killer. God, however, excitedly told her that for the first time He had no knowledge of anything due to making Himself Human. He then went to talk with some of the bystanders before Chloe invited Him to the precinct, which He found "divine."[5]

Experiencing Human Urges[]

After getting God a slushy, they returned to the precinct and watched a video of their victim, Albert Walcott, getting tackled by security at a hospital in Ella's lab. God's slurping becomes evident, causing the three to turn away from the video and to Him. He apologizes for the noise but couldn't help how delicious the drink tasted.

God happily hugs Ella

God happily hugs Ella Lopez.

Once Lucifer properly introduced God as his Father to Ella, the forensic scientist excitedly rushed up to give Him a hug. God happily excepted her hug, pleased to finally meet her as she was to meet Him. After the two let go, He thanked Ella for the support she has given Him, assuring her that it hasn't gone unnoticed up in Heaven. This, however, confused Ella, only for Lucifer to get them to focus on the case.

God experiences a brain freeze for the first time

God has a brain freeze for the first time.

Returning to His slushy, God's head felt like it was on fire, only for Ella to tell the "big guy" that it was a brain freeze He was experiencing but reassured Him that it would go away in a second. It soon did, only for God to experience yet another brain freeze when He returned to drinking His slushy. Lucifer took His slushy from Him and placed it on the table next to him.

God needs to use the restroom for the first time

God, however, took it back while they were all focused on figuring out their murder case. After they decided to head to the hospital to see what kind of drugs Albert was on, God stopped them from leaving with a small mutter. Though Lucifer thought it was another brain freeze, God revealed that He had to use the restroom for the first time, so Lucifer took his "billion-year-old Father" to the "little boy's room" before they left.

God enjoying being clueless for the first time

God enjoying being clueless for the first time.

When they arrived at the hospital, they spoke with Albert's doctor, Alice Porter, regarding the circumstances of his heart attack that led to his wrestling career collapsing. God was left stunned by her report, enjoying how exciting it was that He had no foreseen knowledge of what the Doctor would tell them. After Alice explained the details of giving Albert a triple bypass, God felt like He could relate to the disgraced wrestler; loosing said abilities that made you who you were.

The conversation then went into identifying the drug that was in Albert's system, and God listened closely as Lucifer tried to identify the pink coloring of said drug from his drug container. He joined in with Lucifer listing the different kinds of pink coloring, proud of Himself with the multitude of choices He made. Finally identifying the drug, God thanked the Doctor for her assistance before departing with His son and Chloe.

On their way out of the hospital, Lucifer identified the dealer of the drug as Colonel O'Brien, so Chloe decided they should do a sting to flesh her out. God became excited over being in a sting and asked what He should wear, and sound like for it, suggesting using Lucifer's "pip-pip-cheerio accent." Unfortunately, Lucifer denied God the opportunity to experience a sting and dropped Him off at the penthouse on the way back to the precinct.[5]

Near Death Experience[]

As He was eager to explore Humanity, God left the penthouse and arrived at Colonel O'Brien's airplane boneyard before Lucifer, and introduced Himself as one of Lucifer's associates, referring to Himself as "The Man Behind the Man. They talked in one of the cargo planes that she used as her headquarters before Lucifer arrived for the sting. When His son entered the plane, God excitedly waved at him, happy to be experiencing this with him.

Lucifer pulled God to the side and demanded to know why He was here. God pressed that if He was to fully understand him, He had to experience all of what Humans experience, including risk and danger. Lucifer, however, was worried God wasn't considering the danger He'd be in if He blew their cover. Their argument was interrupted when O'Brien offered God a drink, calling Him the nickname He previously gave her.

When Lucifer found that name absurd, God corrected His son, deeming Himself "The Man Behind All Men. And Women." This, unfortunately, revealed God as Lucifer Father to O'Brien, though God wasn't concerned by His slipup. He then chuckled at Lucifer wordplay of the Tree of Knowledge and giving him Hell, before His annoyed and distressed son gave O'Brien the money for the drugs they wanted.

While waiting for the drugs to arrive, God spoke to three of O'Brien's henchmen and recounted how adorable it was when Lucifer threw a temper tantrum of starting a rebellion against Him. After talking with them a little bit more, He went over to Lucifer and O'Brien and overheard Lucifer insults of how unsupportive God was to him. He tells His son that He's never had to support him and bragged about his accomplishments before accidently letting it slip that he was in the middle of a sting for the LAPD.

In response, O'Brien aimed her gun at the two, who raised their hands in surrender. While the Colonel and her henchmen packed up their product, God told Lucifer that He didn't have His powers with Him when he suggested He "God up," but believed it would be fine. Lucifer reminded Him that He thought the same thing about the dinosaurs before they went extinct, causing God to scold His son not to be disrespectful to Him.

God experiencing fear for the first time

O'Brien overheard their bickering and ordered them to be quiet. Having the guns aimed at Him, God's forehead started to sweat, His throat started to become dry, and He felt as if the floor was starting to spin. Unaware He was experiencing fear for the first time, He asked Lucifer if he was experiencing the same thing, He was but was soon pistol wiped in the lip by O'Brien when He refused to be quiet.

God experiencing pain for the first time

God experiences pain for the first time.

Never having experienced the sensation of pain before, God touched His now bloody lip before screaming in agony at the feeling O'Brien's assault gave Him. Due to this new experience, He started to become even more afraid of the situation He and His son were currently in. In response to his Father being harmed for the first time, Lucifer attacked O'Brien and her henchmen.

God witnesses Lucifer's Devil face

God witnesses Lucifer's Devil face.

God stood in horror as He saw Lucifer use his Devil face while attacking the thugs. After he lifted O'Brien by the throat, deeming no one harms his Father, God calmly refers to Lucifer as Samael to put her down, saying that violence wasn't necessary. Lucifer did as instructed, returning to normal, but reminded God that they were going to kill Him. God considered this fact and became deep in thought about his near-death experience.

Chloe and Dan then arrived to secure the scene, so God was taken out of the plane by Lucifer. He winced in pain when He tried to ask Lucifer where they were going. Lucifer demanded they retrieve His powers so He can return to normal and asked where they were. God was about to answer, only to realize He forgot where He left them.

Lucifer returned God to the penthouse, where he gave Him liquor to feel better. He downed His glass in one gulp and was in awe of the feeling it gave Him. Now having a drink, Lucifer questioned the whereabouts of His powers, but God had no memory of where He left them. He, however, was certain He left them in a safe place.

God questions Lucifer's Devil face

God questions Lucifer's Devil face.

With Lucifer's lack of confidence in their safety, God changed the subject to his Devil Face. He noted that up close it was "quite intense." When Lucifer started to become irritated by God critiquing his "resting Devil face," He questioned why he chose that face as a reflection of how he sees himself deep down. Their discussion was interrupted by the arrival of Trixie. But, before God could introduce Himself, He blacked out due to the liquor.[5]

Reflecting on His Parenting Skills[]

Leaving a note that He went to go search for His powers, God went for a walk with a small paper bag containing a large cereal bar, aware He would be crossing paths with Trixie; He ended up at a train station. He was aware Maze was following Him to kill Him but opted not say anything. Hearing the sound of Maze's daggers, He stopped and exhaled in preparation. He turned around, only to be pleasantly "surprised" to see Trixie behind Him. She asked Him if He was "running away" too.

The two sat together on a bench at the train station and He gave her the cereal bar after she gave Him half of her sandwich. When asked why God was running away, He told her that He wasn't feeling like Himself, and now, because of it, His children were mad at Him. However, He didn't blame them for their anger, believing He messed up.

After Trixie gives Him comfort in that everyone, including "grown-ups" mess up, God asked why she was so far away from home. When she revealed she was mad at Lucifer, God listened to her explanation; she was mad he disappeared for two months with no explanation and now her mom was upset due to whatever Lucifer was doing now.

God and Trixie talk about their issues

God and Trixie Espinoza talk about their issues.

God tells Trixie that the way Lucifer acts is most likely His fault. He explained that as a father, He attempted to raise His children with the right amount of free will, responsibility, and consequences, but looking back at how He raised Lucifer, He's realized that not everything He did was right. Trixie reassured Him that, while she's never been a parent, being one was a tough job, to which God responded with never being a child, but also believing that wasn't easy either.

The two laughed together as God sensed Maze leaving after observing the two speak. After the two finished laughing, Trixie mentioned it being time to go home. This caused God to finally remember that He put His powers in Charlie's raddle for safekeeping. He thanked Trixie for her assistance and the two finished their snack together.[5]

Regaining His Powers[]

Returning to Linda's house, awaiting Linda and Charlie's return, God overheard Lucifer and Amenadiel argue about losing Him, before He stopped their bickering. Though relieved to see Him safe, Lucifer furiously chastised their Father for putting them through this emotional turmoil. Though, God admitted that He was starting to understand what He has really been putting His children through this whole time.

God has His powers restored

As Linda and Charlie returned, God assured His two worried sons that He'd remembered where His powers were. He thanked His grandson for keeping His powers safe within his raddle before grabbing it. God then had His powers returned to Him as a bright light shined around Him. The lights then faded; His powers restored. He handed the raddle to Linda, her questioning what had just happened.

God then went to Lux to speak with Maze. He thanked her for not killing Him and sat a drink on the table before her. He took a seat next to her and, when she tried to justify her actions as not wanting Trixie to see the violence, revealed that He was aware of her following Him long before Trixie showed up at the train station.

God criptically tells Maze she has a soul

God cryptically tells Maze she has a soul.

Maze became annoyed she couldn't even do the one thing He created her for. So, to ease her mind, He explained how miracles happened every day and gave the instances Amenadiel and Lucifer's situations as examples. Getting back to His feet, Maze still deemed it impossible for a Demon to grow a soul, only for God to smile and knowingly ask if that truly was the case. As He walked away, He knew Maze finally understood His earlier comment when she first asked for a soul; she already had one.

On His way to the penthouse, God bumped into Dan, the latter spilling his two drinks on His sweater. God then amusingly listened to Dan stand up for himself regarding sleeping with His Ex-Wife and told Him to just get his punishment over with, as he didn't regret the time he spent with Her.

God makes peace with Dan

He, however, admitted to Dan that He wasn't a good Husband to Goddess, and was in fact grateful to Dan for giving Her the love She deserved. God held out His hand to make peace with him, but the Detective declined the handshake, remembering his earlier explosion. God chuckled at Dan's hesitance before clapping him on the shoulder and heading to Lucifer's penthouse.[5]

Announcing His Retirement[]

After arriving at the penthouse, God, Lucifer and Amenadiel took a drink, the former commenting that He will miss the buzz alcohol gave Him. Chuckling at Lucifer's suggestion to buzz Himself with His restored powers, He sits down His sons and admitted that Lucifer was right in regard to His powers glitching. He tells them that He's been having these glitches for a while but was in denial.

He asked His two children to keep this revelation between the three of them for the time being. Lucifer and Amenadiel question what he means, only for God to reveal it was time for Him to retire as ruler of the Universe. Before the two could digest this news, God vanished from the penthouse.[5] After disappearing from Lucifer's penthouse, neither Lucifer nor his siblings were aware of His whereabouts.[41]

Retirement[]

Family Barbeque[]

God finally returned and announced His retirement to the rest of His children. He brought them all, minus Michael, down to Earth for a family barbeque as a retirement party at a Los Angeles park. God manned the grill and served His children burgers and hotdogs. After handing Hanjobadiel a hotdog, He noticed Lucifer and Amenadiel finally arrive and waved to them. He then returned to serving His children.

When Lucifer and Amenadiel approached Him, He welcomed them to His retirement party. When Amenadiel questioned if God was planning His retirement after He vanished from the penthouse, God realized He still needed to do that. They were then interrupted by Gabriel, who questioned their Father who was replacing Him as God. The other Angels then started gathering around to discuss God's replacement, with Remiel believing it would be Amenadiel.

However, much to their dismay, Lucifer announced he was taking God's place. God remained quiet as His children argued over this idea, Zadkiel evening deeming God choose His replacement. When the bickering started getting out of hand, God silenced His children, assuring them that He would choose His successor after He planned His retirement. He then asks if anyone wanted another hotdog and they returned to the retirement party.[38]

Double Decker Date[]

God set up on a date with Penelope

God is set up on a date with Penelope Decker.

God was later invited that night by Lucifer to join him and Chloe at Jeremy's Fine Food while they conducted a sting to catch their killer. Although, due to His omnipotence, He knew this was Lucifer attempt to set Him up on a "doble Decker date" with Chloe's mother, Penelope. He arrived at the restaurant and happily greeted the couple as they were sharing a kiss, before being joined by Penelope. Lucifer then revealed he set up a double date, only for God to stare at His son, unamused at his word play with the women's last name.

The four took their seats, and God commented on how He and Penelope were both blindsided by His son. When Lucifer addressed Him as his Father, He was formally introduced by Penelope, only for God to reveal He was already aware of who she was. He then introduced Himself as God, before Chloe quickly referred to him "Godfrey" to cover up His true identity.

Lucifer then changed the subject to what the two had in common, including loosing their respect spouses. When offered Penelope's condolences, God clarified that His ex-wife was "in Her own universe," though Penelope thought He was just talking about how they weren't in sink as a couple. When the conversation switched to Chloe's unresolved issues regarding her mother halting her father's career of becoming a detective, God related to Penelope's relation with her daughter with Him and Lucifer as being blamed for everything, much to His son's annoyance.

He, along with Lucifer and Chloe, then laughed off Penelope's analogy to children blaming their parents for everything they do for them to them creating the world. He was then asked by Penelope how long He's been the handsome man she was looking at. God only chuckled at her attempts to flirt with Him. As the night continued, God and Penelope relived their children's rebellious years, the former telling the story of how his "little Rebel" made a "mess" in the Garden of Eden.

God recounts how His marriage failed

God recounts how His marriage failed.

Chloe switched subjects and asked God how He managed His work-life balance. Taking a moment, God regretfully said that He didn't have a life at all, putting all His attention into His work. He revealed that in doing so, it caused His issues with His wife, as She came to believe that He didn't make enough time for their relationship. God then turned to Lucifer and admitted that She may have been right, as a way to make Lucifer see how this was conflicting Chloe.

When a server arrived to show them their entrees, God denied the food, as retelling the story of why His marriage fell apart took a lot out of Him. He then sat in silence while Lucifer tried to get the owner, Jeremy Morgan, to approach their table to admit he was serving endangered animals. When he eventually did, he presented them Ailuropoda melanoleuca tartare, which God knew was Panda. After exposing the truth to Penelope before she ate it, Jeremy is arrested, and the date came to an end.

God ponders how to help Ella

God ponders how to help Ella.

After Lucifer and Chloe got their suspect and brought him to the precinct, God traveled there as well, though the two were unaware of this. God stood on top of the elevated walkway, ignoring Lucifer's calls, and stares at a sadden Ella in her lab. He was aware of her internal debate of whether she was a good person or not due to her affections for the wrong people, most recently her devastating relationship with Pete Daily, who turned out to be a serial killer, and was questioning on how to help her get through it.

God denies anyone but Goddess as His soulmate

God denies anyone but Goddess as His soulmate.

Lucifer found Him, in the midst of calling Him, so God turned His attention from Ella to His son. When asked if He was prepared to "ride off into the sunset" with Penelope, God shot down Lucifer's offer to set them up. He acknowledged that Chloe's mother was a lovely woman, but felt she was a "few millennia too young" for Him. When Lucifer took this as a challenge to find another woman for his Father, God made it clear, in His own vague way, that Goddess was the only woman He'd ever love.

Lucifer decided to then focus on another element of His retirement, but God stated that He didn't need his aide with His retirement plans. Lucifer insisted that he was just trying to get everything ready so He can name His successor as quickly as possible, namely him. God placed His hand on Lucifer's shoulder and assured him that everything happens at its appropriate time. He then made abundantly clear that He doesn't want Lucifer to speak of His retirement with Him again.

Taking God's cues, Lucifer obliged with his Father's demands and walked off, typing something into his phone. Now with the idea to bring His Ex-Wife back for His retirement to Her universe planted into Lucifer's head, God returned His attention to the distressed Ella and how He was to help her get through this crisis of self she was in.[38]

Manipulations Revealed[]

God was approached by Amenadiel for some quality father-son time. Though agreeing to it, God knew that Lucifer had asked Amenadiel to talk about His retirement since He didn't want Lucifer to anymore. They headed to a golf course, where God made several holes in one. After commenting on the fun time He was having with His eldest, God revealed He knew about Lucifer's ulterior motives, though Amenadiel defended it as an example of how Lucifer was delegating much like how He did

God, in a vague attempt to get Amenadiel to realize He wanted Him to take His place, then questioned if He was at peace over Lucifer taking over as Sovereign over him. Though Amenadiel didn't seem to get what God was really saying, He did warmly smile at him praising Lucifer's growth in these last years. He and Amenadiel grabbed their gear, and God smugly asked how many games he wanted Him to win before they checked out the retirement homes Lucifer wanted him to stay at.

As they walked, the two relished in the time they were spending together, before Amenadiel questioned how God didn't appear to be "losing it" with how good He was using His powers playing golf. God continued the façade that He was unaware of Michael's manipulations to usurp Him, and agreed that it was strange that He didn't feel like there was anything wrong with Him now.

God pretends to discover Michael's scheme

When asked when He first started to realize there was a problem with His powers, He told Amenadiel that it was actually Michael who noticed His powers were starting to misbehave a few months ago. He then revealed that after discussing it more with His treacherous son was when He "realized" He was starting to lose control. When Amenadiel offered the idea that Michael manipulating God into self-actualizing loosing control, God pretended to consider it. They then finished their game, God deciding not to visit Lucifer's rest homes.[38]

Bringing Light to the Darkness[]

God returned to the precinct to speak to Ella regarding her self-doubt. He entered her lab, where she joyfully hugged Him. When jokingly asking if He was God since He was Lucifer's Dad, He didn't deny it, while also not giving confirmation. He took note of her struggles and asked if there was anything He could do to assist her.

Ella, however, didn't believe He could help get rid of the darkness within her, but God assured her that everyone had darkness within them. He explained that the key wasn't getting rid of it but accepting it. When Ella said that her darkness was different, attracting her to bad people, making her believe she was a bad person, God comforted her with the notion that the darker something was, the brighter the light they gave.

He then coped Ella's cheek and said that she shinned "so, very, very brightly," seeing her light shine all the way from Heaven. This seemed to give Ella a newfound confidence in herself, before her computer beeped with information on their case. While Ella was busy examining the results, God disappeared from the lab, having succeeded in giving Ella confidence boost she needed.[38]

Long-Overdue Reunion[]

To be added

Retiring with Goddess[]

Amenadiel eventually realized that Michael was actually manipulating his father in order to take power. Lucifer had Gabriel contact Goddess, who returned from Her new universe. God and Goddess were happily reunited and decided to retire together to Goddess's universe. Dropping his mysterious attitude, God tearfully admitted that Lucifer was right in that he was not a good father. God finally told Lucifer that he loved him and was proud of the man that his son had become. God and Goddess left together with God telling his sons that it was up to them now to figure out who would replace him.[38]

Plan Fulfilled[]

God's grand plan finally was fulfilled when both Lucifer and Amenadiel realized their callings. After Lucifer chose not to become the new God, Amenadiel figured out it was his calling to become God and that was what their Father meant when He said they'd "figure it out."[10] Lucifer, after helping Dan deal with his guilt that got him into Heaven and stopping his future daughter, Aurora Morningstar, from being consumed by self-loathing, as he had been, he realized his true calling; helping the souls of Hell overcome their guilt and reach Heaven. This realization made Lucifer figure out what God meant when he told Lucifer that Hell no longer needs a keeper. God had meant that Hell needs a healer which is Lucifer's true calling.[9]

Personality[]

God's reaction to the "devil face" of his son, Lucifer.

Nobody bloody knows what "He" wants, because the selfish bastard won't just tell us!
— Lucifer about God
in "Weaponizer"

God seems to care more for Humans than His Angel children, as after he created Humans, he spent more time on them than he did with his celestial family. His care for Humans even surpass his love for his wife, as he banished her to Hell after she repeatedly tried to destroy Humanity.

Amenadiel admits God can be "an ass"; with his "mysterious ways". Though it seems millennia of ruling existence mellowed God out. Goddess claimed God wished to obliterate Lucifer Morningstar after the Rebellion before being convinced to send him to Hell; contradicted when God laughs at the memory. Even cursing Cain with Immortality ended up being short-sighted on God's part as Abel wanted to kill too and Humans ended up killing each other anyway.

God set up the Universe so that he didn't have control of the fates of mortals and immortals; instead, their own self-judgment decides where they go when they die.

After his blunder with allowing the extinction the Dinosaurs, God attempted to do better with humanity by cresting the Garden of Eden to protect them. After they expanded beyond that, God sent his angels down to rectify problems.

To the embarrassment and frustration of Lucifer, God is clueless about Human interaction; even for the seriousness of crime solving. God has a fondness for musicals, using his powers to compel Humans to sing songs related to their current situations; while it's unknown if he actually chooses the songs or those he directs pick them.

During his therapy session with Linda Martin, God explained that He tried to give His children space to make their own choices, as when He tried parenting, He was deemed controlling. However, He soon received clarity that He needed to show Lucifer support in order to help mend their relationship. Though on the flip-side, God was very proud of Lucifer for not needing his Father's support to build his own life (granted he did nudge things with Chloe Decker and Amenadiel); something none of His other children did before Lucifer.

During His brief time as a mortal (as a precaution against his haywire powers), God enjoyed the excitment of NOT knowing everything. It was also the first time He felt fear for his life and to truly feel shock at seeing Lucifer's devil face; even questioning his son as to why he saw himself as that monster.

After spending time on Earth seeing the lives of Lucifer, Amenadiel and those close to them, God realized that He had truly not understood His children and that they had grown since living with mortals. Further more, when Goddess returned, God admitted that She was better at running a universe than Him as She found it easy. Upon His retirement, God admitted Lucifer had been right to be angry with Him and that despite His lackluster parenting, Lucifer had grown into someone He could be proud of.

Powers and Abilities[]

Powers[]

  • Nigh-Omnipotence: God is all but omnipotent; and unrivalled, even to His wife, Goddess, who He cast to Hell and stripped of Her power, He is also now stronger as Her prolonged imprisonment has weakened Her. With Goddess, He created the Universe and Angels. God's power made Him able to create an entire, albeit weaker, species on His own, as He created Humanity. He is also capable of placing extremely powerful curses on an individual, as He cursed Cain to always be resurrected should he die, with even Demon daggers being unable to kill him despite the knives being able to kill Angels. He can effortlessly kill other species, even those who stand on top of the hierarchy, such as Lucifer Morningstar, as Goddess said that God can destroy Lucifer and wanted to do so after his rebellion until Goddess convinced Him to spare him. God's power is also great enough to be capable of temporarily altering the Timeline for a "butterfly effect" experiment, or creating an alternate, temporary reality with the scenario He wants to test.
    • Resurrection: God resurrected Lucifer after he was killed by Malcolm Graham so he could find Goddess. He also resurrected Dan Espinoza after exploding him.
    • Healing: When God resurrected Lucifer, He also healed his gunshot wound. After exploding Dan, God put him back together and removed all trace of injury.
    • Immortality: God can live for eternity. He's immune to aging and illnesses. He has lived longer then even His Celestial children, having existed since the Dawn of Time.
    • Invulnerability:God, like His Angelic children, is virtually indestructible, has a highly durable body, and cannot be harmed by conventional means. Only things that could kill Him is Flaming Sword and potentially Goddess.
    • Dimensional Travel: Gods can traverse interdimensional barriers, such as the ones between Heaven, Hell, and Earth. He traveled from Heaven to Earth to stop Lucifer, Amenadiel and Michael's fight and would quickly vanish enough that someone could just turn around for a second and He'd be gone.
    • Corporeal Manifestation: During His time on Earth, God was able to create a Human body for Himself to interact with His sons and their Human friends.
    • Chronokinesis: God was able to unfreeze time upon His arrival on Earth. After Lucifer and other people finished their musical dance number on football field, He reversed time and returned all of them to the positions they were in before they started dancing. God reversed time to put Dan back together after killing him.
      • Chronokinesis Resistance: As a Celestial Being, God is immune to the ability of slowing, reversing, and stopping time.
    • Pyrokinesis: God was able to relight the candles during the family dinner after he put them out in His anger over Lucifer and Michael arguing.
    • Weather Manipulation: God can affect the weather based on His emotions. When Lucifer and Michael were arguing during the family dinner, God created a thunderstorm in His displeasure to stop them. Also, whenever Lucifer said something to Him that God felt was uncalled for or insulting to His feelings toward His family, thunder would be heard immediately after, representing His dissatisfaction at His son's claims.
    • Reality Manipulation: God is able to control reality, as He was able to make music play, and shine colorful lights out of nowhere. He was also able to make Himself win by hitting each hole on the first try while playing golf. He was able to explode Dan and then instantly put him back together.
    • Mental Manipulation: God made people, and Human corpses, participate in impromptu musical dance numbers, without them being disturbed by that, and then removed all their memories. Angels seem to have a slight immunity to this, as Lucifer expressed confusion when it occurred and remembered it happening, with him later stating that he just got caught up in the music. However, Amenadiel seems as susceptible to this as the Humans around him. After exploding Dan, He made it so that all Humans in the surroundings forgot it happened, although made Dan have trace memories of the experience.
    • Super Strength: God's strength exceeds that of a normal Human, or even of Angels and Demons. He was able to grip Dan's hand with enormous strength that caused him great pain.
    • Superhuman Speed: Like His Celestial family, God is extraordinarily fast. He is much faster than Humans, Demons, animals, and His Angel children. He can appear and disappear with a blink of an eye.
    • Molecular Combustion: God can manipulate the cells within an individual using His mind to make them combust. He was able to manipulated Dan's body to explode into a million pieces.
    • Power Stripping: God is able to strip Himself of His powers, while retaining enough energy to return them when He wants. After listening to Lucifer's advice, God decided to become Human and put His power into Charlie's toy. After finishing His day as Human, He took back His power, and became God once again.
    • Accelerated Metabolism: God is able to consume vast quantities of alcohol and drugs without negative effects
    • Desire Exhibition Resistance: As a Celestial Being, God is immune to Lucifer's Desire Exhibition.
    • Fear Exhibition Resistance: God is the only known Celestial Being immune to Michael's Fear Exhibition
    • Spirit Communication: Like all Celestial Beings, God can communicate with Ghosts.
    • Sound Manipulation: When God came down to earth to stop his sons from fighting, he spoke in a sharp commanding Divine voice.
  • Nigh-Omnipresence: Was Implied to be Omnipresent by Lucifer when Telling Chloe what powers he would get when he became God.
  • Nigh-Omniscience: As a primordial entity, God possesses a nearly unrivaled amount of knowledge. However, contrary to popular belief, He isn't aware of everything that happens, and He apparently doesn't understand certain things and concepts, such as sarcasm.
  • Fourth Wall Awareness: he's shown to be aware of the viewers of the show as he narrated the story of the alternate universe.

Abilities[]

  • Master Tactician: As a Celestial Being with the power of Nigh-Omnipotence, God has significant insight and foresight, with a demonstrated ability to foresee the long-term consequences of certain actions, discern the intentions of those around Him, and act accordingly. This is also demonstrated during many of His interactions with His children. God was able to foresee Lucifer Morningstar's eventual return to Hell and manipulate events in order to achieve that end. When orchestrating creating a Human that would be immune to Lucifer's Desire Exhibition, God was able to pinpoint the exact couple having issues to conceive and foresee if He intervened with just this one act they would have a girl who would then cross paths with Lucifer after he vacated Hell at the time He wanted him to without any further manipulations on His part. He was also able to deduce Michael's claims of Lucifer Morningstar's and Amenadiel attacking him were false; Michael was simply attempting to win God's favor. God's ability to plan the long came can work out even with a slight alteration. Wanting to see what would happen had Chloe's father never been killed, thereby preventing Chloe from being motivated into becoming a cop and meeting Lucifer in 2016, she and His son still fulfilled his desire to being in each other's lives, albeit a couple years than originally planned. God is a even far more superior tactician than Michael, who had manipulated the events that led to Lucifer's downfall by just whispering the right words in the right people's ears, into believing he succeeded in manipulating Him into retiring so he could take His place. When in reality, He put on the façade that he succeeded as it was all part of his greater plan. He also used cryptic sentences so He could get people to come to the conclusion He had in their own way, such as refusing to give Mazikeen a soul due to her already having one, but simply saying she was already perfect, or manipulating Lucifer into bringing Goddess back so He could retire with Her to Her universe by just recounting His undying love for Her when he tried to set Him up with Penelope Decker.

Weaknesses[]

  • Goddess: She had similar powers to God before She was severely weakened. According to Uriel, if Goddess regained Her former powers, She would be the only being able to kill God.
  • Flaming Sword: If He was stabbed with the Flaming Sword while in Human vessel, His essence would be completely eradicated from existence.

Physical Appearance[]

God-2

God's physical appearance.

Unlike His Angelic children, God had no physical appearance to call His own, only appearing as a disembodied voice since the Dawn of Time. After millennia, God was able to create a physical form for Himself when He traveled to Earth to stop His children's sibling squabble. He took the form of a tall black man, taking inspiration from His eldest son, Amenadiel. He had short black hair and a white beard that went down to His lower chin, with black coloring over His mustache and underneath His mouth. God's choice of clothing was cloth sweaters and pants, and wore socks with sandals.

Trivia[]

  • In the comics, God is known as the Presence, who is the creator of the DC Multiverse and is truly omnipotent, omniscient, and omnipresent.
  • In "Favorite Son", Linda Martin claims that Lucifer Morningstar is God's favorite child after doing research on the devil. However, in "Sympathy for the Goddess", an ancient Sumerian text claims that the key for the Flaming Sword was given to God's favorite son. The key is revealed to be Amenadiel's necklace strongly implying that he is God's favorite.
  • In "Quid Pro Ho", Lucifer implies Nietzsche is his father's killer. This is a reference to the famous quote "God is dead".
  • Lucifer once jokingly referred to his Father as Morgan Freeman. This is a reference to Freeman's role as God in Bruce Almighty and Evan Almighty.
  • In "Once Upon a Time", God is narrated by Neil Gaiman. Gaiman created the version of Lucifer in The Sandman comic, that would go on to appear in the solo Lucifer comics on which the TV series is loosely based on.
    • Gaiman is British, giving God a British accent.
  • As revealed in Crisis on Infinite Earths, God's inaction takes extreme levels. Rather than recreate his universe Himself, He leaves it to The Spectre and the Paragons to reboot the multiverse, not bothering to lend a hand against the Anti-Monitor, although this is likely because He knew the multiverse would eventually be recreated, as part of His plan.
  • God purposely chose to have "el" at the end of his children's names; he liked the rhyming. Though he does respect if they have chosen a name for themselves; after seeing it set off his son, God accepted calling him "Lucifer" instead of Samael.
    • The suffix "el" or "iel" in angelic names is Hebrew for "God".
  • When He manifests a corporeal form, God takes combined traits of the three sons He was stopping from fighting.
    • He's black like Amenadiel.
    • He dresses comfortably, sharply like Michael.
    • His clothes are bright and almost pure white, invoking light; for how Lucifer Morningstar is the Lightbringer.
  • God likes soufflés "perfectly risen."
  • Chicken is God's favorite food, which is why there is the saying "Taste's like chicken."
  • God's favorite donut was the one with the ones with the "little cereal bits" on top.
  • God doing plumbing work behind the bar in Lux could be a reference to "Everything's Coming Up Lucifer", when Chloe Decker suggested that Lucifer could be "Larry Morningstar, the son of a plumber in Connecticut."
    • Lucifer mentions God accidentally made the water turn into "unnecessary but delicious" wine.
  • God tends to create things for inexplicable reasons. These included Marsupials, Pomegranates, and the Gall Bladder.
  • Ironically, the remaining Human main characters met God in order of who found out about divinity first to last; Linda, Chloe, Dan Espinoza, Ella Lopez.
  • God's favorite color is pink.
  • God always thought Lucifer's choice of a British accent was over the top. However, He finds it delightful.
  • God enjoyed NCIS, similar to how Lucifer enjoys Bones.[42]
  • Ella believes God is the best hugger since He invented hugs.[43]
  • God is the only member of His family to not have a favorite alcohol.
    • Lucifer likes whiskey.
    • Amenadiel likes cosmos.
    • Goddess and Michael like vodka.
    • Zadkiel enjoys top shelf quality.
    • Aurora likes rum.
