What does God promise to those who work hard?

Proverbs 22:29Do you see any truly competent workers? They will serve kings rather than working for ordinary people.

Faithful work brings better opportunities. God promises to bless us as we use the gifts he has given us. As believers, we are working for the King of kings, so it is important to do our best.

Proverbs 10:4Lazy people are soon poor; hard workers get rich.

Proverbs 21:5Good planning and hard work lead to prosperity, but hasty shortcuts lead to poverty.

Colossians 3:23-24Work willingly at whatever you do, as though you were working for the Lord rather than for people. Remember that the Lord will give you an inheritance as your reward, and that the Master you are serving is Christ.

God promises a reward to those who work hard. That reward can sometimes, but not always, include financial benefits. It may also include the even more significant rewards of respect, personal satisfaction, and the joy of contributing to the welfare of others.
