Our labor in the Lord is not in vain and will be blessed by the Lord


Our labor in the Lord is not in vain and will be blessed by the Lord

1 Cor 15:58

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.

Isa 65:23

23 They will not labor in vain,
    nor will they bear children doomed to misfortune;
for they will be a people blessed by the Lord,
    they and their descendants with them.

Gen 12:2

“I will make you into a great nation,
    and I will bless you;
I will make your name great,
    and you will be a blessing.[a]

Deut 28:3-12

You will be blessed in the city and blessed in the country.

The fruit of your womb will be blessed, and the crops of your land and the young of your livestock—the calves of your herds and the lambs of your flocks.

Your basket and your kneading trough will be blessed.

You will be blessed when you come in and blessed when you go out.

11 The Lord will grant you abundant prosperity—in the fruit of your womb, the young of your livestock and the crops of your ground—in the land he swore to your ancestors to give you.

12 The Lord will open the heavens, the storehouse of his bounty, to send rain on your land in season and to bless all the work of your hands. You will lend to many nations but will borrow from none.

7)    The Lord will grant us abundant prosperity

8)    The Lord will open the heavens, the storehouse of his bounty, to send rain on our land in season and to bless all the work of our hands.
