The Bible says in 2 Thessalonians 3:10, “For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat.” God commands labor. He says, “Six days shalt thou labor and do all thy work” (Exodus 20:9).
The ancient Jews understood that this commandment was just as true as the commandment to rest on the 7th day. They saw labor and work as a divine imperative. Labor is the gift of God. Work is not a curse.
I don’t care how much money you have. Work is not bad. Work is good. Ephesians 4:28 says, “Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labor, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.” It’s good to work.
