Where in the bible does it say that God need us?

One view:It is NOT found in The Bible.

Jehovah God, the Almighty is the Creator. He created us from the physical elements, which he also created.

God is self-sufficent; self-contained, if-you-will. God does NOT depend on the things humans depend on. God does not need to eat food, or drink water. He created food and water for 'life on earth' to exist. God does not need eyes to see; does not need feet, or wings, or fins, or scales, to move from place to place. God does not even need heat from the sun to exist; nor does he need gravity. God created all those things. They need HIM to exist, not the other way around.

God does not even need to to make him happy. He is called in 1 Timothy 'The Happy God'. That is his essence; he is self-contained.

At the same time, we can contribute to God's happiness by our loving obedience and respect of him and Who he is.

True, the Bible states that if mankind did not 'praise' God; God would make the stones speak his praises. But that does not mean that God needs 'stones' any more than God needs 'people' to speak his praises. God simply ALLOWS us to do things, and then he finds joy in observing our willing obedience.

Example: You may be a very happy person without children around. You may be able to do things much better than your children. --BUT-- having children CAN bring you much pleasure. Even though they may not do things as good as you can, yet watching them do their best, within their capacity; is a sheer delight to observe.

Same thing with God, and us, and our relationship alongside Him.
