There are two extremes, none of which you should be in. One person says God is in control and locks his hands between his thighs. He is lazy and irresponsible, because he thinks all responsibility is God's. He spends his time on some religious activities thinking they will cover up for his irresponsibility. This is a bad extreme. The other person thinks her destiny is in her own hands. She is her own god and everything depends on her. She believes in pragmatism and does not really believe in what the people of faith say. Her faith is in working hard, making money, networking and all that must be done for success or victory. The ball is in her court. She wakes up and quickly gets to work without praying. She knows that work is how she will win. This sister is also in error.

Proverbs 21:31 says that the Horses and Chariots are prepared for battle but victory comes from God. In this episode, PDS explains the balance between preparing and believing. We are brought to the middle, where we know the place of proper preparation without losing sight of the God without whom all our earnest efforts can be in vain.
