Bible Promises in Song

And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.
(Genesis 2:3)
 
Wherefore I perceive that there is nothing better, than that a man should rejoice in his own works; for that is his portion: for who shall bring him to see what shall be after him?
(Ecclesiastes 3:22)
 
Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goest.
(Ecclesiastes 9:10)
 
And they shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat the fruit of them. They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree are the days of my people, and mine elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands. They shall not labour in vain, nor bring forth for trouble; for they are the seed of the blessed of the LORD, and their offspring with them.
(Isaiah 65:21-23)
 
I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do. And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was.

What the Bible says ...

About Work

All our work ought to be done with Christ in mind.
"Don't work hard only when your master is watching and then shirk when he isn't looking;
 
work hard and with gladness all the time, as though working for Christ, doing the will of God with all your hearts." Ephesians 6:6-7, TLB.

Work knowing that God will evaluate your efforts. 
"Work hard so God can say to you, 'Well done. Be a good workman, one who does not need to be ashamed when God examines your work. Know what His Word says and means." II Timothy 2:15, TLB.

Does attitude matter?
"Work hard and cheerfully at all you do, just as though you were working for the Lord and not merely for your masters." Colossians 3:23, TLB
"Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might, for in the grave, where you are going, there is neither working nor planning nor knowledge nor wisdom." Ecclesiastes 9:10, NIV

A man who fails to work to provide for his family denies the faith.
"If anyone does not provide for his relatives, and especially for his immediate family, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever." I Timothy 5:8, TLB.

One can learn lessons from nature on how to work. 
"Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider its ways and be wise! It has no commander, no overseer or ruler, yet it stores its provisions in summer and gathers its food at harvest. How long will you lie there, you sluggard? When will you get up from your sleep? A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest—and poverty will come on you like a bandit and scarcity like an armed man." Proverbs 6:6-11, NIV.5
