Bible Question:
Is there anything in the bible that supports the statement I had heard many times: "God helps those that help themselves"? This may have been asked before, but I could find it. thanks, retxar |
Bible Answer: I cannot give you actual chapter and verse but I do know that Jesus had said "You have not because you ask not" which, to me, means if your asking God for help...you are, in essence, trying to help yourself and, therefore, will be helped...If we are sitting around feeling sorry for ourselves and lose hope in finding solutions to our problems then we must have lost faith in God...so, logically the statement is true...and it may actually be in the Bible, I'm not sure...I can only verify that there are many Bible verses to support it! |
