God Helps Those Who Help Themselves
Along with prayer comes effort. After all, what do we pray to God for? We pray for the success of our endeavours. In Vach. Gad. II-7, Shriji Maharaj highlights the significance of personal effort. He says that if one who is troubled by his own drawbacks and if he "intensely and selflessly serves a great sadhu... God will shower His mercy upon him ... and he will be instantly relieved of his drawbacks." This is a clear example of how one's efforts earns the grace of God and thus helps one to fulfil one's aim. So the necessity of effort alongside with prayer is easily understood.
