Overcoming Rejection Through Prayer

Do you experience rejection and isolation from family, friends, work etc. Here is a prayer you can say for yourself or someone undergoing such situation.

Dear Lord,
I come to you today seeking help in overcoming rejection and coping with the feelings that come with it. I have heard it said that “IT WAS THE STONE THE BUILDERS THAT BECAME THE CORNERSTONE…Rejection then becomes God’s protection”. Help me to accept the things that are not meant to be, and to rejoice in the face of rejection. It takes a lot to trust in You, Your Will, and Your plan for my life to rejoice when handling rejection. Help me to see that this rejection is a blessing in disguise. 

Please assist me in accepting that certain things are not meant to be and help me find joy even in the face of rejection. It can be difficult to trust in Your plan for my life, but I know that with Your guidance, I can find peace and happiness even in the most challenging situations.

I know that You are good and that Your plans are for me to prosper and succeed. Whatever the enemy meant for evil, You will turn it around for my good. Knowing that, I can rejoice. My identity being rooted in You means I can face rejection and come out unscathed. I am thankful having a strong foundation in You the cornerstone for it allows me to endure rejection without being harmed.

I am grateful for what you have in store for me as it surpasses any plans I could have made for myself. My entire identity will be based on you instead of by the world’s standards. I will not let the world or rejections define me. You are my creator, and you affirm that I am made wonderfully and with utmost care. I receive the blessings You have on the way to me and thank you for those blessings! 

I pray and hope that this prayer will grant victory and also the strength you need to endure. Take care and do have a spirit-filled weekend.
