don’t be lazy, …work

Genesis 2:15

The Lord God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it. 16 And the Lord God commanded the man, “You are free to eat from any tree in the garden; 17 but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil,for when you eat from it you will certainly die.”

Proverbs 13:4

A sluggard’s appetite is never filled, but the desires of the diligent are fully satisfied.

Colossians 3:23

23 Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters,

2 Thessalonians 3:10-12

For even when we were with you, we gave you this rule: “The one who is unwilling to work shall not eat.”

11 We hear that some among you are idle and disruptive. They are not busy; they are busybodies. 12 Such people we command and urge in the Lord Jesus Christ to settle down and earn the food they eat.

what if you can’t find work … check out rejoice in the lord (Philippians 4:19)

doing daily devotional and god’s work is also god’s work.

… what is God’s work

Matthew 28:18-20

18 Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
