I am doing a study for both self and also for a small group and I am trying to find a verse or verses in scripture that relate to the Completeness of God in Himself and does not require us because He needs us to fulfil something in Himself.
I may be mistaken, but I think what you are looking for is more often called the "Aseity" of God and if you search your books, you'll find lots of places where this is discussed and probably the relevant bible verses are given.
That would be a good search to start with, especially in Systematic Theology books.
MacArthur's Biblical Doctrine has a good section on it as well.
I do thank you for the information. I couldn't find the right words to do a search in scripture. I never heard the word Aseity before and a search on that sure did the trick. I am trying to put together a series of small group studies on the history of interactions between God and man from creation onwards. Needed that that to set a baseline.

I have Logos Desktop on my Mac and the mobile version on my iPhone. I'd like it to synch progress across devices so when I open either one of those it synchs to the latest read position between the two devices. (e.g. I am using my iPhone and I end in Leviticus 18, when I open Logos Desktop on my Mac it opens to Leviticus…
I keep hearing about the Book of 1st Enoch. I realize that there’s multiple authors when we get into 2nd & 3rd Enoch, so I’m specifically asking about 1st Enoch. I hasten to say that I realize that it has some historical value, but is there a work that solidly demonstrates (factually) why it isn’t canonical? This is NOT to…
Overnight I was charged for the updates to the Master Journal Library and Galaxie’s Theological Journal Library, vols. 1–28. The MJL downloaded the new resources, but nothing came down from Galaxie; it was supposed to be the list below. Did anyone get these, meaning my system needs a jolt to get the downloads going, or was…
