For many people, accepting the experience of rejection can be quite challenging. However, it is important to realize that even God Himself was rejected in the past.

“Honor, therefore, is for you who believe. But for the unbelievers, the stone that the builders rejected has become the chief cornerstone, a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offense; they stumble because they disobey the word, as they were destined to do.” – 1 Peter 2:7-8

If the Creator of the Universe had to experience rejection from His own, it’s evident that you were not immune to this experience. Furthermore, God’s Word itself has been rejected by humans on several occasions.

“For rebellion is as the sin of divination, and presumption is as iniquity and idolatry. Because you have rejected the word of the Lord, he has also rejected you from being king.” – 1 Samuel 15:23-25

Yet, even though His Word is the source of life and can help humanity find meaning in their destiny, people have deliberately turned their backs on it and rejected the Author of the Word. Thirdly, if we consider the Lord Jesus Christ, we can see that the most prominent feature of His life was rejection.

“But he was pierced for our transgressions; he was crushed for our iniquities; upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace, and with his wounds, we are healed.” – Isaiah 53:5

Time and time again, humans have positioned themselves as experts of God’s Word, and in doing so, they have rejected the counsel of God’s Word.

“But the Pharisees and the lawyers rejected the purpose of God for themselves, not having been baptized by him.” – Luke 7:30

It’s said that 99% of the world’s population goes through an experience of rejection at some point in their lives. In reality, rejection is a devastating situation, and many people are paralyzed by the fear of being rejected.

Sometimes this fear makes them apathetic and unresponsive. The word “rejection” may only consist of a few letters, but it has the power and the ability to limit anyone who allows it. For some, rejection hasn’t just been an experience; they’ve allowed it to grow to the point where their own imagination feeds these monstrosities, which have undoubtedly become insurmountable mountains.

Rejection is the major obstacle on the path to your success. It is the evil that threatens nearly all of us. We must identify it, resist it, and overcome it. Rejection is a cruel slave master who has kept many in captivity for their entire lives. If left unchecked, it can destroy you, limit your dreams, and keep you below the level where God intended to take you.

If your response is controlled, rejection can become your acceleration towards greater heights and greater favor. It can also be the element that makes you the best person on Earth. Every creature of God was created for success. Each one was designed from the beginning with the DNA of success. God intended for you to be a performance. His original intention for you is to achieve success and have everything in your life testify to it.

If your reaction to rejection is mastery, it can become your driving force and your testimony. However, many people start using language that shows they have accepted what they’ve been told, how they feel, and how they’ve been treated.

“I’m not perfect; no one is perfect.”

Words have power. They are creative. They shape your thoughts, direct your future, and create your world. Nevertheless, the Word of God states that we were fearfully and wonderfully made and not destined for rejection.

“I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well.” – Psalms 139:14

The experience of rejection may have an interesting dimension. Although rejection is a negative concept, there are some forms of rejection that might be necessary. For example, a mother’s body must push the newborn out. The mother’s body has also been programmed by God to expel the child after nine months. Similarly, you need to be rejected by certain people to move forward.

Despite this positive aspect of rejection, in the vast majority of cases, rejection is a negative experience that can limit your dreams, life, vision, goals, achievements, and elevation.

The purpose of this book is not to celebrate rejection but to show you how to transform it into a source of acceleration and direction. Rejection often serves as a signal for others to despise us. When we are in this disposition ourselves, we encounter many people who say “no” to us before they eventually grant us a possible “yes.”

Fearful people die twice before their actual death. Some have completely surrendered after one or two instances of rejection. However, the ability to reach better days is what allows a person to turn rejection into direction. Transforming rejection into direction means facing rejection, learning from it, and moving forward.

Every time I think of rejection, I see both the positive and negative sides of it. Rejection is like an elevator in a building. You can take it to go down to the basement or to reach the highest level, even the penthouse apartments. It all depends on the button you press. You have a choice, and you determine where the elevator takes you. Life has its negative aspects. There are things that are
