'Work' in the Bible

for which [purpose] we also pray always for you, that you may be considered worthy of the calling of our God, and he might fulfill every desire for goodness and work of faith with power,

For the mystery of lawlessness is at work already; only the one who now restrains [will do so] until he is out of the way,

encourage your hearts and strengthen [you] in every good work and word.

For even when we were with you, we used to command this to you: that if anyone does not want to work, neither should he eat.
