The spirit of Rejection

he spirit of rejection is a spiritual and emotional wound that often forms through abandonment, betrayal, neglect, or unhealed trauma. Scripture reveals that rejection can shape identity, distort relationships, and hinder our ability to receive God’s love and purpose. Yet the Word of God also declares that the Lord Himself receives those who have been rejected and establishes them in security and belonging.

This teaching examines rejection through a biblical lens—how it operates, how it affects the heart and mind, and how healing comes through truth, renewal, and alignment with Christ. From David’s cry, “Though my father and my mother forsake me, the LORD will receive me” (Psalm 27:10, NASB), to the assurance that we are accepted in the Beloved (Ephesians 1:6), Scripture offers a clear pathway from rejection to restoration.

Key passages include Psalm 118:22, Isaiah 53:3, Romans 8:15, and John 1:11–12, showing that even Jesus was rejected, yet through Him we are brought into sonship, freedom, and wholeness. This message is designed to help identify rejection, break its influence through truth, and walk in the security of God’s acceptance.

The Fullness

For in Him all the fullness of Deity dwells in bodily form, 10 and in Him you have been made complete, and He is the head over all rule and authority;
