Bible Reading: Psalm 27:10
Memory Verse: The stone which the builders rejected is become the head stone of the corner. Psalm 118:22 (KJV)
Rejection is an integral part of success and destiny fulfillment in the school of the Almighty. If not that many were rejected at one point or the other, they would have settled for less in life. Sometimes, that one rejection is all you need to get to where God is taking you. Sometimes when people reject you, it is because God is redirecting you. One of the core secrets of great people is their ability to handle and overcome rejection without harboring any form of bitterness. Ratan Tata, the CEO of Tata Motors is one of such examples. He refused to pay back Bill Ford and the entire Ford Motors in their own coin in 2008. They had earlier humiliated and rejected him nine years before when he was struggling with the car line of his business. Other proven examples of those who were once rejected but later turned out to be a redirection include:
1. Gbenga Adebambo: He was rejected many times by different print-media organisations when he was looking for platforms. He told himself “Life has two rules: #1 Never quit #2 Always remember rule #1!”. Today, he is an international writer.
2. Arnold Schwarzenegger was rejected many times because of his strange Austrian accent, relatively unpronounceable surname and short stature, but he ended up becoming one of the highest paid actors in Hollywood. He left his country to look for platforms in America. From being a body builder, he rose to being a movie star and a well-respected politician.
3. Lady Evangelist (Mrs) Amaka Okwuoha, popularly known as “Chioma Jesus” was sent out of the house by her own mother when she gave her life to Christ. Today, she’s a global voice for Jesus.
4. Joseph was rejected by his brothers. That gave him a free visa into Egypt and there, he became a Prime Minister.
Brethren know for sure that for most success stories sponsored by God, rejection is part of the plan.
Quote: Rejection doesn’t mean you are not good enough; it means the other person failed to notice what you have to offer – Mar Amend.
Prophetic Decree: Let every oil of satanic rejection, dry up from your head, in Jesus name
Prayer Focus
1. The One that seats in Mysteries doing Mysteries, I honour You.
2. Garment of rejection placed upon me by wicked forces, catch fire, in Jesus name.
3. I stand upon Mount Zion, and I command that my way shall open by fire, in Jesus name.
4. Unto my Lazarus trapped in the grave, I command: Lose me and let me go, in Jesus name.
5. Oil of acceptance, favour, restoration and supernatural speed fall upon me, in Jesus mighty name.
