Zachariah died and exploded. God was just wounded, and by his sister: The Darkness. He was surrounded by darkness, which attenuates light, whereas Zachariah was in an empty room with white walls.

When you think about it, everything he did makes sense. It's in-character, and in line with his abilities and the plot. He didn't interfere with free will and minimized his interference to keep his sister from attacking him before he was ready (which wasn't even his plan in the beginning, as he knew he couldn't win).
