Study Lenses
The verse centers on "glory", "honour", "presence", "strength", "gladness", and "place". It is saying that the verse draws attention to "glory" and "honour", so its meaning should be read from those terms before moving to application.
The nearby context moves from verse 26's "For all the gods of the people..." into verse 28's "Give unto the LORD ye kindreds of...", so "glory" and "honour" belong inside that flow. In 1 Chronicles context, the local focus is covenant, worship, and faithfulness.
A plain takeaway is to answer the verse's own emphasis on "glory" and "honour" with trust shaped by these words, not by a vague optimism outside the passage.
