Types of rejection
Personal Identity Rejection - As you come to him, the living Stone—rejected by humans but chosen by God and precious to him—1 peter 2:4

False judgement - 3 He was despised and rejected by mankind, a man of suffering, and familiar with pain. Like one from whom people hide their faces he was despised, and we held him in low esteem. Isaiah 53:3

Rejected for fulfilling purpose “Whoever listens to you listens to me; whoever rejects you rejects me; but whoever rejects me rejects him who sent me.” Luke 10:16

Dealing with rejection:

You can either embrace rejection as a catalyst to develop yourself “ growth stimuli;” or You can embrace rejection as offensive thereby adopting bad attitude namely “false humility, prideful” Not all rejection is negative. God rejected King Saul because he was disobedient to God and he unfairly ruled Israel- by disobeying God’s counsel. God rejected lucifer because he was rebellious and created strife in heaven by causing a third of the angels to follow his rebellious agenda. A loving leader will reject evil and disobedience for the sake of protecting the kingdom.

Types of rejection Jesus faced:

1. Societal rejection – because human rejection was based on human understanding on a matter: Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, and brother of James and Joses and Judas and Simon? Are not His sisters here with us?” And they took offence at Him. Mark 6:3

2. Family Rejection - He came to His own, and those who were His own did not receive Him. John 1:11

3. Father’s Rejection - Father God turning his back on sin.

thee that thou shouldest not eat? (KJV).

Conclusion on the matter – Generational Rejection Patterns are Broken

We are all part of God’s family. God’s perfect love casts out all fears, therefore we should not be living in a life filled with rejection.

John 3.16 “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in a “He predestined us to adoption as sons through Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the kind

intention of His will” Ephesians 1:5

For you have not received a spirit of slavery leading to fear again, but you have received a spirit of adoption as sons by which we cry out, “Abba! Father!” Romans 8:15

“See how great a love the Father has bestowed on us, that we would be called children of God; and such we are. For this reason the world does not know us, because it did not know Him.” 1 John 3:1

“Because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into our hearts, crying, “Abba! Father!” Galatians 4:6

God did not make man so that can live alone. God designed mankind to be a global community. Gen “ 2.18
