Does he, or do we do it because we want to do it?
meaning?It's our need; God's want. Worship is sustenance.

Well, Jews are obligated, because prayer is one of the commandments. We have traditionally believed that God does not want even non-Jews to worship false Gods, but we have never had universal agreement about whether non-Jews are actively required to worship God, or only to refrain from worshipping false gods.
Either way, it's none of our business: we believe that non-Jewish peoples have their own ways of dealing with God, which are for them, and are not for Jews; just as our ways are for us, and do not concern others.

How could you know God and not worship him? That's impossible.
Assuming your concept of God.How could you know God and not worship him? That's impossible. Praising him and the gift he gave me for it ,which Iwill not reveal,was so good it passed all expectations, not that I wanted anything, it was a surprize.

Not really, Satanists for instance might believe in the Bible yet worship Satan, for instance.
But yes, generally if someone believes in God why wouldn't they worship Him

I think you are confusing Satanism and Devil Worshiping specifically, but that is for another time. I think that you, like most, fall into the dangerous assumption that when someone believes in God they believe in the same God you do. This is not possible, as no two minds are alike. Now, within certain religions, sure an idea of God is swallowed by an entire congregation, but this is simply a hive mind vs an individual mind (and you can look at the two under the same microscope).
Sri Krishna does not require worship, but it certainly helps!
"Fix your mind on Me alone; let your reason penetrate into Me; without doubt you will then abide in Me alone for ever more". - Bhagavad Gita 12.8
"Let your mind be engrossed in Me. Offer worship to Me. Be resigned to Me. Beloved as you are of me, I pledge in truth you shall come to Me alone." - Bhagavad Gita 18.65
