It is debatable whether God helps anyone.
I see God as perfection. You cry out to God to see to it to try to fix your life and make it more perfect. In many ways this is similar to the power of suggestion, like hypnotherapy. If you believe enough, God will give you a sign. If you choose to accept that sign, your life will improve.
While I don't believe in a personal God, like the Baha'is deeply do, I have cried out to God, and after I "received" his advice, I didn't fully understand it and ultimately rejected it. That was around the point my life went into a deep decline. I dropped out of college, moved back into my parents, and now instead of living the American Dream I am on the dole. If I had listened to God, which I now understand the advice given better in hindsight, I probably would have a normal life with responsibilities.
The largest piece of this puzzle was missing due to the fact that I decided to remove myself from depakote, a miracle drug for me, in college. I now believe God was trying to tell me to stay on it. Ultimately the advice I got was essentially to just be myself and good things will come to me naturally. I rejected it and forged my own path, which I regret to this day. I had friends, I was working towards an advanced degree and I was respected by many people at my University. Things were easy because I had my own dorm room.
You will get a message from God. I see this message to come from your natural instincts, rather than God. If you listen to yourself, or God, you should be able to have some foresight and understand what to do from there.
Good luck.
