The statement 'heaven helps those who help themselves' cannot be found anywhere in the bible but I do think the principle behind the statement is correct and biblical. For example, Jacob helped himself by trying to appease his brother(Esau) with gifts. Also, David helped himself by asking God weather he should chase those who plundered his properties including wives and we know the rest of the story. Paul admonishes the Christians to work with their own hands. Also, on the issue of salvation, Paul said we should work out our salvation... Though the statement is not in the bible, is the statement a godly or biblical principle?

It a Proverb... An Adage...

God
helps the helpless! Isaiah 25:4 declares, "For
You have been a defense for the helpless, a
defense for the needy in his distress, a refuge
from the storm, a shade from the heat..."
Romans 5:6 tells us, "For while we were still
helpless, at the right time Christ died for the
ungodly."

Jacob tried to bribe Easau but showed him that the work of his hands cannot get him anything. Easau refused his gifts

Indeed, God helps the helpless or the incapacitated but the ungodly have to help himself by claiming the redemptive power and diligently obey the commandments. Also, God helps a student who study to pass an examination
