What does the Bible say about work and career?

“And whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ.”

“Commit your deeds to the LORD, and your plans shall succeed.”

“My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.”

“Let the favor of the Lord our God be on us. Establish the work of our hands for us. Yes, establish the work of our hands.”

“In all hard work there is profit, but the talk of the lips leads only to poverty.”

“Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with your might; for there is no work, nor plan, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in Sheol, where you are going.”

“Let’s not be weary in doing good, for we will reap in due season if we don’t give up.”

“Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the Lord’s work, because you know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.”
