Is it Scriptural for a Christian to work for reward?

It certainly is. The Bible constantly holds out rewards, both temporal and eternal, for faithful service. Our Lord Jesus Himself tells us to lay up treasures in heaven (Matthew 6:19-21). The Christian should not serve merely for the reward but out of love to Jesus Christ, but he has a right to expect a reward, and the reward is a great incentive to faithful service.
