God is what God does, and what God does is what is done in the name of God, which is the birth of God in the world. The death of God means that God's call goes unheard, is stillborn. The birth of God means the prayers and tears of God gain a hearing in the world and God comes to life in the world, in the people of God, in deeds, in the way the world “worlds,” as Heidegger would say.
