They are pretty much the same.
Godlike is pretty much saying something has the characteristics of a God (usually some kind of overwhelming power, omniscient aka all knowing)
Divine is more like something that has come from the gods/heaven (blessings, angels, weapons, etc.). It can even be something godlike.
example:
He expressed a god-like power to move mountains.
He survived the car crash through divine intervention.
In most cases they will mean the same thing.

but can i ask one more question? what's the diff between remnants and leftovers?
- Inglés (US)
@Joao054 Those are also very similar. Remnants are what is left after something is destroyed/ended. Leftovers are what is left after something is finished. Most commonly used for food.
The remnants of the destroyed building laid on the ground.
I plan on eating my leftovers for lunch today.

so leftovers are for food and remnants for pretty much everything?
- Inglés (US)
@Joao054 you can use them both but only "leftovers" can be used when talking about food from a previous meal.
so you could say something like
There are still some remnants of my cooking in the kitchen.
but that sounds very poetic/narrative, like you might read it in a book. speaking like that would be a little weird.

@Joao054 no problem. If it helps, you can think of them as extensions of their root words
Remains = remnants
Left = leftover
