This is a long (202 words), complex, and glorious sentence (one sentence in Greek) that oozes with God-centered worship. This is relevant for a variety of reason. Here’s one reason it is important: you were made for praise. And we must have the right object of worship.Humanity has never had a problem praising something or someone. In regard to functional idols (money, sex, work, etc), we like to take good things in creation (food, work, relationships, sex) and substitute them for Creator, turning those good things into god things, thereby committing idolatry.This is no small matter. Romans 1 says that this failure to worship God is at the heart of sin. Your sin problem is fundamentally a worship problem, and our hearts will only be satisfied when we begin praising Triune God. Since God the Father has chosen us, God the Son has redeemed us, God the Spirit has assured us. Let’s worship the Triune God. We were made for praise.
