Forgiveness as a Remedy for Rejection
Most of us will never experience the type of agony Christ endured on the cross to be the atoning sacrifice for the world’s sins. That fact alone should encourage us to be willing to forgive those who rejected us.
Whether you believe it or not, unforgiveness hurts you more than it affects the offending party. The Bible plainly states if we don’t forgive others, God will not forgive us.
Take the parable of the unmerciful servant for example. After he had begged for leniency, the king was merciful and forgave his large debt.
But that same man turned around and seized a fellow servant and commanded the servant to pay back all he owed. Instead of extending the same measure of grace to his fellow man, he had his debtor thrown into prison until he could pay back every last cent.
Being overlooked, denied and rejected hurts. But no matter what has been done to us, we are expected to forgive the person who hurt us. If we’re not willing to, God Himself will turn us over to the tormentors.
The spirit of rejection is a tormentor, and it is a device often used by Satan to destroy us from the inside out.
