The basic question here is simply this:
Is god perfect by definition? If he was always perfect, then he did not do anything to deserve perfection. Strangely, that would paradoxically make him incapable of evil, making something god cannot do. If god is capable of evil, then he is not perfect...
So, if god is not perfect, then overcoming his flaws would make him worthy of praise. If there were a god, he/she would most likely very powerful, but not absolutely perfect, just so far above us that we couldn't tell the difference.
