A federal holiday in the United States celebrated on the first Monday of September to honor and recognize the American labor movement and the works and contributions of laborers to the development and achievements of the United States.
Beginning in Genesis and ending in Revelation, Labour(s) is mentioned.
Genesis 31:42 … God hath seen mine affliction and the labour of my hands, and rebuked thee yesternight.
Revelation 14:13 … Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them.
From Romans to Hebrews Paul mentions Labour 31 times.
Yes, we are to Labour (work) so we can earn a living and help others:
Ephesians 4:28 Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.
In several epistles Paul commends those who laboured with him.
Philippians 4:3 And I intreat thee also, true yokefellow, help those women which laboured with me in the gospel, with Clement also, and with other my fellowlabourers, whose names are in the book of life.
1 Thessalonians 1:3 Remembering without ceasing your work of faith, and labour of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, in the sight of God and our Father;
Paul reminds Timothy sharing the Gospel is worthy Labour.
1 Timothy 5:17-18 Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who labour in the word and doctrine. For the scripture saith, thou shalt not muzzle the ox that treadeth out the corn. And, The labourer is worthy of his reward.
God will not forget your Labour.
Hebrews 6:10 For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.
Again remember what the Apostle wrote in Revelation:
Revelation 14:13 And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them.
