When God created Adam, Adam was in a place of total communion with God. And as a result, God brought all the animals to Adam for them to be named, and whatever name Adam gave, it became that. This was because Adam was so much in 'oneness' with God that whatever decision Adam made, if God was in Adam's place, He would have made the same decision. This relationship was lost when Adam disobeyed God, and he was no longer in total communion with God.
Worship is the place where we can be able to come into that place again. In Zachariah 12:8, the Bible says "In that day shall the Lord defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that is feeble among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David shall be as God, as the angel of the Lord before them" (italics added). In other words the house of David, which is known for worship, shall become like God. Meaning that when we worship God wholly and passionately, we are bringing ourselves into that place where we are one with God, where we are as God. And as a result, whatever decisions we make, if God would have been in our shoes, He would have made the same decision. Worship will bring us to a point of oneness with our God, making the impossible seem possible, where decisions made without even thinking much, are in sync with God. Even the seemingly unimportant decisions, like which route to take to go to work, or school, or what clothes to wear, they become like God is making those decisions. All this when we give ourselves to passionate worship.
