In my mind that’s a real-world example of what you’re talking about, like selecting out the Grace of God for worship.
That’s never been a thing in Orthodoxy, to my awareness. Divine Grace has specific doctrinal significance because the Church teaches we’re “saved by Grace, through Faith”, and we understand what than means in accordance with the Tradition we’ve received. Such doctrinal specificity does not suggest to the Orthodox that we ought to single-it-out for worship, however.
