Answer 2

What you require is not in the bible, humans worship God because they love him, not because he requires it. He requires certain behaviors, because he is holy [clean] and wants us to be clean. He created man to care for the earth and the animals, if you were a serious bible student you would k now this.

Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created

I would also say that Matthew 6 has jesus describing the types of worship.

Worship is an act of faith- praying being one of the most obvious. I see it as talking to someone you cannot see, and thinking that you are being heard, even though there is no one for the eyes to focus on. Hence; an act of faith and worship.

I think that some of your article might take some time, as many of the references that can be used are implied, though not blatantly stated.

I hope that your article is a joy to write. ( :
