Well I got it from the Christian theologian R.C. Sproul, who argues that God needs nothing to sustain him, because he has within himself the power of being. He therefore was not created.

If he needs nothing to sustain him why is he so desperate for our worship and adulteration?

Ah, now that's a good question and objection!
