4:11

“You are worthy, our Lord and God,

to receive glory and honor and power,

for you created all things,

by your will they were created
and have their being.”

“You are worthy, our Lord and God,

by your will they were created
and have their being.”

The whole universe exists because OUR LORD willed it to be so. Likewise, we were given souls, so He and we could have common fellowship. This is confirmed in John 1:3, Hebrews 1:10-12, and Colossians 1:15-18.
