In your worldly business, just do what needs to be done and trust in G‑d to fill in the rest.
In your spiritual business, however, you’ll have to take the whole thing on your own shoulders. Don’t rely on G‑d to heal the sick, help the poor, educate the ignorant and teach you Torah.
He’s relying on you.
If we can't expect G-d to heal the sick, why do we spend so much time in prayer for "G-d's healing power"? Reply

A very sincere DD, it is us who are His agent.
G-d wants us to exercise our faith in Him, as miracles come by believing and trusting in Him TOTALLY.

sounds about right
I think that you hit the nail on the head. G-d only helps those who help themselves. You have to reach up so that He can reach down. That is why He relies on us.
I think that it is the triple actions of performing mitzvot, prayer and learning Torah that catches G-d's attention, and opens up the line of communication.

spiritual/ worldly life It seems to me they both require the same form me. To give as much as I can asking and knowing G-d will be there to (fill in, provide miracles or to support people through the tough times). If I do nothing I'm using G-d power as an excuse to do nothing but if I don't ask G-d than I'm not walking with G-d either. Reply

Making miracles happen This is true. However,if someone is praying for a miracle beyond human capacity,I hope they get it. Reply
Daily dose When prayer directly to GOD heal three life-threatening ailments that caused my wife to be hospitalized, and, all within a two week time period. I firmly believe thet prayers genuinely felt in the heart snd directly to GOD work. I have seen it work! Reply
Confused no longer G-d does heal the sick, but then again he also provides livelihood to the poor. However when I see the poor man I must help, and can't rely on G-d. Similarly if someone needs medical help and I can give it, it is my Mitzvah to do so. I cant just rely on G-d. G-d is relying on me to act as his agent. Reply
make it yor business i am confused. i thought g-d does heal the sick. don't we pray to g-d to heal us? Reply
For Richard We have to know what we can do and we cannot. Whatever we cannot do, we ask from Him. But if it's in our ability to take care of it, He's praying to us.
