Overcoming Rejection
Few things are as painful as rejection! Few things undermine our self-esteem as rejection. Because of its power to hinder or even destroy, we wish rejection occurred only as rarely as once-in-a-lifetime. But the sad thing is that rejection happens to us more often than we wish or hope for. In a world that has been broken and tainted because of selfishness, rebellion, and pride, we get rejected many times, sometimes by the very people who should accept us, cherish us, and protect us.
As sad and potentially destructive rejection may be, there is a cure for it! All glory to God for his great act of rescue through Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ, the eternal Son of God, was rejected so that you can be accepted. Jesus assumed all your sin, curse, pain, sickness, rejection, and more so that you can be healed, set free, restored, and accepted. Jesus Christ and his sacrifice of his very life on the cross of Calvary was the means of your salvation from all harm - including rejection. Now, you can be healed of any and every rejection, regardless of how painful and traumatic they may have been for you. You don’t have to be a prisoner of rejection forever. You can get free now, today, through the power of Jesus Christ!
Did you feel rejected by your parents? Have you been betrayed by people who you thought were your “best friends”? Were you traded by your former boyfriend or girlfriend for someone else? Have you received very painful words of rejection from your husband or wife? Regardless of what happened to you, there is hope for you! Come to Jesus Christ. Believe what he did on the cross of Calvary for you. Accept his unconditional love for you, and his great delight in and joy over you. You are the apple of God’s eyes. You are of great worth to him. Today, receive freedom from rejection so can enjoy life and glorify God!
Whatever your need or situation may be today, the Lord can touch your life like no other! Open your heart to him. Trust him. Obey him. Great blessings await those who follow the Lord!
