I would say that the God-Emperor of Mankind is quite a mysterious figure. I wouldn't know how his antics work such as assumed reincarnation or having abilities to fight the Warp that eventually gave existence to the Daemons of Chaos. But I would believe his worshippers gives the Emperor their prayers, faith, and hope as means of fighting back against forces of Chaos and the not-so-friendly warmongering Xenos (unless the Tau are actually or assumingly a friendly species and faction) that continues to threaten humanity as of today. But the biggest threats is the four Gods of Chaos and the Emperor and his guidance is pretty much the only way to protect humankind, and without the Emperor who represents pretty much the God of Order is only thing keeping the Gods of Chaos in check would spell doom on not just humans but all the races in the Warhammer 40k universe
