God to support the likes of you and me, it's said (7)
I believe the answer is:
bacchus
'god' is the definition.
(I know that Bacchus is a Graeco-Roman deity)
I don't understand the rest of the clue.
(Other definitions for bacchus that I've seen before include "Greek god of wine, also called Dionysus" , "Greek god of booze" , "Greek god of drink, also called Dionysus" , "Roman god of wine and revelry" , "Greek god of boozing" .)
