Ok, I’m gonna be real here! I just feel like sharing something that may help someone today. All my life I struggled with rejection, but I didn’t know what it was until God revealed it to me these past few years. This is something so many struggle with, both men and women alike. But, the Truth of God when it is revealed to your heart will set you free.
He began to show me that “feeling rejected” is a lie based on many things, particularly experiences we have had that caused the wrong thoughts and the wrong emotions and that it is a trick and strategy of the enemy. He shared His love, pouring it out on me in such an overwhelming display of Who He is and He told me how beautiful I am to Him, that there isn’t anything wrong with me because Jesus Christ made me accepted in the Beloved!
Then, He showed me this truth: when that nasty old emotion of rejection tries to arise as a result of something that someone has done or said, that there is nothing wrong with me. He showed me that person is the one with the problem, not me!
Wow! That set me free! I no longer allow the enemy to play that card with me and when those old thoughts and feelings/emotions try to arise, I speak to them out loud. I say, “That’s a lie! There’s nothing wrong with me!” I take those thoughts and emotions captive according to the Word of God, and I take authority over them in the Name of Jesus! I refuse to allow them to have a place in my mind!
My Papa loves me and what more do I need? What more do you need than to know that Father God loves you, has accepted you, and is pleased with you?
