The help of God is one of the greatest assets of man.
We will agree that we can not sail through this life alone. No matter how educated or gifted we are, we will always need the help of others and this help does not come if God does not orchestrate it.
This world is a battle field, without divine help you will suffer defeat, humiliation and shame. Without divine help people will forget you and men will abandon you.
Psalms 121:1
I will lift up my eyes unto the hill from whence cometh my help. My help will come from the Lord which made heavens and the earth. He will not suffer thy foot to be moved. He who keepeth thee will not slumber.
WHAT IS HELP?
To help means to make it easier or possible for someone to do something by offering one's service or resources.
WAYS GOD CAN HELP A MAN
1). Exposing them to the ministry of men; It is the help of God that powers the help of men. When you need the help of men the first thing you seek for is the help of God. (Cause what you call the help of men is the help of God.)
2). Administering his Mercy; (Romans 9:16, “So then is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth but of God that sheweth mercy.)
