Building Block 2 to Financial Health

Building Block #2 Working
Three reasons to work hard
A. You follow the example of Jesus.
John 5:17 "In his defense Jesus said to them, "My Father is always at his work to this very day, and I too am working." 

B. Working provides for your needs
Psalm 128:2 "You will eat the fruit of your labor; blessings and prosperity will be yours."
Proverbs 12:11
"Those who work their land will have abundant food, but those who chase fantasies have no sense."

Proverbs 14:23 "All hard work brings a profit, but mere talk leads only to poverty."

C. God rewards hard work.

1 Corinthians 15:58 "Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain."

Hebrews 6:10 "God is not unjust; he will not forget your work and the love you have shown him as you have helped his people and continue to help them."
