The scripture you cite is found at: (1 Corinthians 15:58)"Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your toil is not in vain in the Lord." (NASB)
1. We have the example of Cornelius, the first gentile to accept Christianity. His GOOD works were not in vain....God saw his fine works and rewarded him with the opportunity to become a follower of his son, Jesus. (Acts 10:1-4)
2. Mary (mother of Jesus) had a FINE reputation and was considered a 'highly favored one', and was given the honor and responsibility to bear and raise the Messiah.(Luke 1:26-31)
3. Dorcas was known for her kindnesses to others and faith in God, and was rewarded with resurrection (Acts 9:36-41)
None of this work was in vain because it was in harmony with God's will.
Matthew 15:7-9 indicates that SOME forms of worship ARE in vain
The destruction of Babylon the Great shows that BAD behavior is ALSO seen, taken note of and repaid.(Revelation 18:5)
Ecclesiastes 12:13, 14 indicates that God will bring EVERY sort of work into judgment. He doesn't miss a thing, so whatever we do in harmony with God's will, is NOT in vain...is not USELESS...it IS seen and remembered by God.
