Three I can think of off the top of my head that come close:
"Lord willing and the creek don't rise"
"Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition"
"Trust in God, but check your wallet"

I don't believe there's a saying such as this, but english is the most expressive language ever to exist, so I'm sure there's a way to convey the meaning of the saying from Spanish. What is the idea that the saying is trying to convey?
Actually, I like the Roosevelt quote above.
