YOU’RE NOT ALONE

Rejection will come in some way, shape or form at some point in your life but YOU’RE NOT ALONE because rejection has been here since the beginning of time…



1 Samuel 8:7…..God rejected

Hosea 4:6………knowledge rejected

Jeremiah 8:9…..Word of the Lord rejected

Mark 7:9………..commandment of God rejected

Mark 8:31……...Jesus rejected by religious leaders

Luke 7:36……...counsel of God rejected

Luke 17:25…….Jesus rejected by people



Rejection is not a reflection of you but rather just a decision made by others. Yes, rejection hurts and can cause depression, low self-esteem and even suicide. Rejection does come but YOU’RE NOT ALONE. Rise above rejection and let Jesus be your example. Jesus knew who HE was and rejection did not take Him off of His course!!! He held His head high and defeat was not an option!! Reverse the role of rejection and allow it to be a springboard for your success – let it roll off your back like water on a duck!! Do not let the rejection of people define you – let the Word of God define you!



When rejection comes from family, teacher, friend, boyfriend, employer, or spouse – let Jesus be your example and rise above it! YOU’RE NOT ALONE! Jesus did not take rejection personally because He knew it was rooted in ignorance and had no reflection whatsoever on Him as the King of kings and the Lord of lords! Do not let the words and actions of others label you or rule over you but know and understand that you are a child of our Saviour King and everything that God created was good and fruitful and important!!



God favors you today! God honors you today! You are a success today! You have God’s special favor upon you today! He makes His face to shine upon you today! He is gracious to you today! (Numbers 6:25)



We’re family, let’s talk…….
