Increasing self-worth is the answer to overcoming REJECTION!!

KNOW WHO YOU ARE:

Memorize and dwell upon the facts of God’s approval of you!! When negative thoughts of fear of rejection bombard your mind, counteract them with God’s thoughts about your worth and value.... The TRUTH!

Accepted
John 1:12 "I am God's child"
1 cor 12:27 "I am a new creation"
Eph 1:1 "I am a Saint"
Col 1:14 "I am redeemed and forgiven"

Secure
Rom 8:28 "I am assured that God works all things together for my good"
2 Cor 1:21 "I am established, anointed, and sealed by God"
2 Tim 1:7 "I was not given a spirit of fear, but a Spirit of power, love and self discipline"

Significant
Rom 11:16 "I am Holy"
John 15:1 "I am a branch of the true vine" Eph 2:10 "I am God's workmanship, created in Christ to do the work he planned beforehand"
Phil 4:13 "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me"
1 John 3:1 "God has bestowed a great love on me and called me"

BE A GOD PLEASER, rather than a people pleaser....

Realize that rejection is not the end of the world- Expect rejection. Focus on doing the right thing, as opposed to trying to win everyone’s approval!! The worst thing people can do to you is kill you, if God permits, then you are in heaven.

‎(Gal 1:10) Obviously, I’m not trying to win the approval of people, but of God. If pleasing people were my goal, I would not be Christ’s servant!

(James 4:4) Anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God
