This Possuk which is one of the seventeen Psukim of Ata HarAisa, is a Prayer that Shlomo said, implying that even in his time it was necessary to underscore the superiority of the Avos and to pray that Hashem should be with us as He’d been with them. The Ma’amar explains this by explaining the idea of Lama Yomeru Hagoyim Ayey Elohaihem, Goyim ask where is your God (now). The answer is that we replaced Spirituality with action and have not only not lost out (compared to the Avos) but gained. Now: 1) we can have Atzmus, 2) It can even be revealed!
