Those who help themselves in achieving the good things that God calls the faithful to do are indeed helped by God but those who seek their own advantage may not depend on God's help in their endeavours.

If we could do anything to actually help ourselves, then God is unnecessary. His love is such that He reaches in to save us and to lift us up out of the mire of sin and degradation and troublesome consequences because we are harassed and helpless!
Matthew 9:36
When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd.
