we finish asking that you've already dispatched angels to bring it to pass in Jesus name Amen amen give your neighbor a hug all right while you're standing open your Bibles to Isaiah chapter 53 Isaiah chapter 53 and I'm going to begin reading in verse 1 who has believed our report and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed for he shall grow up before him as a tender plant it has a root out of dry ground he has no form or comeliness and when we see him there is no beauty that we should desire him he is despised and rejected by men a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief and we hid as it were our faces from him he was despised and we did not esteem him amen you can be seated I want to I want to use as a subject today the other side of being disked look at your neighbor say there's another side of being distant look at the person on the other side say in case you haven't heard there's other side to it one of the things about the Old Testament that is significant that helps us put our confidence in Jesus is that the Old Testament spends many chapters and verses and books giving us a description of the coming Messiah as a matter of fact the Jews had anticipated this Messiah and how they would know that the Messiah was coming is that much of the New Testament would give a letter give us information and descriptions about what he would look like and how they would be able to identify his coming it is unfortunate that when he finally did show up he was not identified one of the things that the scripture tells us about his coming that is rather significant that would be a indicator that he was who he said he was Messiah would be is that he would be according to Isaiah's description here in chapter 53 of Isaiah is that he he would be despised and rejected by men so when Jesus came and he was despised and rejected by his own even it is an indication that he was them he was the Messiah that they had been awaiting I wanted to talk about this today because there is some insight into this rejection of Jesus that has application into our lives I thought I thought I would talk to you about it has a matter of fact I'm going to give you my punch line to this message early but like to do this with this crowd but I'm telling you right off the bat I'm going to tell you right now upfront where my climax is going to be they teach you when you preach sermons you hold off that I'm adding that climatic point that point of celebration that point as significant and important you hold it all to the end you hold it off as long as you can then you drop it all you drop it on the people did you drop the mic and walk off the stand but I'm going to give you my mic dropping point upfront you also say come on pass - give it to it what I want to talk about today is a significant message that this passage has implication to you in our life and here it is the significant point that this passage is talking about is a savior who was rejected and the application to you and I to our lives is when a person is rejected in life it is an indication that God has something special for their life oh I thought I would get a little few more amens I thought I thought there might be somebody up in the camp who's been living being talked about and rejected and pushed to the curb and unrecognized and unappreciated I thought there would be a few more people that would recognize that issue and would go ahead and celebrate because I gave you my punchline early now got all act right by me giving it to you upfront I might have to hold it back for the 12 and the 6:30 and wait till the end I wanted to give it to you upfront because it's a significant point it is a very very significant point that that I wish I had known this growing up as I was growing up as a young man in school and in my life as I go back and look back over my life having moments and periods and seasons of rejection some often leading me to be depressed often feeling suicidal and lonely and sad I look back over my life now and I wish I knew then what I know know now I wish I knew then when they didn't invite me to their parties I wish I knew then when they didn't come to my parties I wish I knew then when church after church after church after church didn't want me to be their pastor I wish I knew then out of all of the women who didn't want me who did was uninterested in me all of the girls who never called me wouldn't give me their number I wish I knew then what I know now that when you don't fit in where they don't like you and they don't respond to you when you're on the outside of the curve when they don't appoint you pick you vote for you celebrate you when you're not in it I wish I knew then what I know now that God does not want you to fit in they don't want you to fit in cuz if you fit in when you get to the place where God is taking you somebody would try to take credit for you getting away you are going but God doesn't want to share his glory with anybody he doesn't want nobody else to try to take credit when you get to the place where God is going to take you King nobody get credit but Jesus himself I wish I had a friend crowd with me I wish I had somebody somebody holland's they tell you neighbor he's preaching better than your saying Amen this is a biblical proof rejection is a sign it's an indicator that God has something special for you and it's a it's a truth as a biblical truth it is a component of life that more people need to understand and it is reflected through multiple people throughout the scriptures it is demonstrated through various lies throughout the Bible I don't have time in our little fruit cube a little bit of time that I have to highlight all of them but I want to pick out one today and talk about this one person who have multiple points of Jetson in his life and I thought I should talk about it with you today because this man had these things going on in his life and yet they were indicators that God had plans to make his life special his name is David somebody so yeah I know David David is a man who had some issues he had a lot of issues in his life he killed Saul's murderer he committed adultery with Bathsheba he tried to cover up his sin of adultery when Bathsheba got pregnant by and try and even went forth and killed Bathsheba's husband this man had some issues but the Bible says an interesting thing about David in acts 13 it says he was a man after God's own heart why that's amazing the meter here's a guy who did all of these things all of these bad behaviors who did all of these wrong things but yet in spite of that God had a selection on his life God had an anointing on his life God had set aside something to happen to do with his life that was amazing and that somebody look at you maybe that gives you hope as nasty as you are God can use you as jacked-up as you are there's hope for you if God can use David he can use you I can't get no a mess from nobody David finds themselves through various points of his life being rejected being pushed to the curbs various points in his life being overlooked I want you to allow me to just walk through some of this I'm going to give you passages I don't have time to wait for you to turn it in and read it you're too slow but just write these verses down and I want to encourage you to read them in your devotions on your study or when you get an opportunity write diverses down and get an opportunity to when you can to study and read it it is it was life-changing for me when I saw what happened in David's life he had repeated points of rejection repeated points of being dissed this means to be rejected pushed to the curb unrecognized and he was this somebody say this first of all he got rejected by his family somebody say rejected by his family matter of fact on multiple occasions he got rejected by his family let me just point out a couple the first one is mitching right here in 1st Samuel chapter 16 verses 6 through 11 let me set the stage let me paint the picture for you first samuel 16 god has spoken to the prophet samuel and given him instructions that the next king of israel is coming out of Jesse's household Jesse happens to be David's father and so Samuel is sent the prophet Samuel is sent by God to Jesse's house to pour oil and anoint the next king of Israel and so Jesse the Samuel goes to Jesse's house and when he gets to Jesse's house he asked Jesse for his sons so he says to him one of the next king of Israel one of your boys is going to be the next king of Israel and so the Bible says that Jesse bought out his seven sons and he sought to try to pour the oil over the seven sons but the oil would not come out of the bottle he went through the first son the second son the third son the fourth fifth sixth seventh sons he went through all seven sons and the oil will not pour and Samuel said none of these are the boys do you have another one he said yes I got a Louisville but you surely don't mean pieces David the shepherd boy David the one the ruddy Jack the one he's down in the field you can't possibly mean him he got dis looked over not considered passed by rejected by his own father Samuel said bring him here let me check him out and when David walked in the room and Samuel lifted up the veil of oil when he turned it the oil started pouring I don't know who I'm preaching to but somebody needs to understand your father don't want to own you your father don't want to acknowledge that he's your father the father is no end to be found but I got good news when you get rejected it's a sign that you're special to gun [Applause] father look past them didn't consider him surely you cannot possibly be David then he's just the land at the time in chapter 17 jotted down his family chapter 17 first samuel verses 20 through 28 jot it down you'll had time to slow jesse davis father sends david down to the battlefield where his brothers are in the army are y'all with me so far have I lost y'all his brothers are in the army they're in battle with the Philistines they're at their war and his father since David down to take some bread and some a meal to his brothers and to inquire as to how is the battle going when David gets down to the battlefield and to inquire and to bring the food to his brothers he is shocked by what he sees what he sees is the army of the Living God hiding over in a ditch the children the nation of Israel the armies of God the children of God the men the soldiers are hiding over in the ditch and out on the battlefield is this one gigantic of a man the lone soldier of the Philistines by the name of Goliath Goliath is the champion of the Philistines and they have issued a challenge to the Israeli soldiers and they've said you send out your champion rule says we will send out our champion let the two men fight and the man who wins that army will be the winning army David gets down to the battlefield here he goes down and sees this singing that the soldiers of the Living God are hiding over in the ditch out in the middle of the battlefield is the lie of standing waiting for Israel to send a soldier just didn't happen one day this happened day after day after day for weeks every day he would go out in the battle I wish I knew the Bible I wouldn't explain on the seal he would stand out day after day we got we waiting for Israel to send somebody out to do battle and there they are hiding in a ditch Davis said what's going on down here they said to David well the king has offered for somebody to go out and fight Goliath but nobody's been willing to go so matter-of-fact the King has offered to give his daughter's hand in marriage to the man who goes and fights Goliath and defeats the king is offered to exempt this man's family from taxes and the king is offered to make the man rich David said what did the king when David started showing an interest in being the one who went out to the battle his brothers dissed him his brother said you're just the lad you're not you're not strong enough you're not old enough you're not a soldier sit down but you know the story David went on out to the battlefield with the slingshot and killed Goliath he got rejected by his family his father rejected him and his brothers rejected I'm somebody better understand right here today I don't know who I'm talking to but when your family members push you to the curb instead of crying and complaining instead of being upset about it it's an indication is God's Way of telling you you are special oh I wish I could get a few more amens than that I'm talking about somebody say your family somebody say your family a family let me roll on I don't have as much time as I thought I did my time got away from me I got a restaurant through here's the second situation the second scenario the second group that rejected him he got rejected by his employer somebody said his boss rejected him right here in 1st Samuel 17 verses 32 to 33 jotted down for Samuel 17 32 to 33 he gets rejected by the King his boss David had a job David's job to go and play his heart for the king when the cat when the King got distressed he go down and played a harp and the Kings troubled spirit would be soothed and calmed but on this particular day this we're still right here on the battlefield and the king is somewhere in the vicinity of this situation and David inquires and says that he will go out and fight Goliath this is the same situation of him when his brothers rejected him not only did his brothers rejected him but he gets rejected right here by his boss his boss said to him you're only a child you can't go out and fight Goliath and yet he looked him over didn't consider him he got rejected not one time did he get rejected by his boss not only did his boss reject him about going and fighting Goliath but after David killed Goliath after he took the slingshot and the five stones went out in the battlefield killed Goliath chopped off his head and they marched into the city celebrating the fact that they had defeated Goliath and the Philistines and the people and the women lined the streets and celebrated the army coming back in they sang a song that said Saul has killed his thousands Saul has killed his thousands but then they said what David has filled his mouth y'all still wouldn't be come a little closer I'm trying to plead a case and try to paint a picture to you as they are marching into the city and the armies are marching in and David is on the sold shoulders of the soldiers and the people are celebrating and the women are singing his praise David finds himself getting rejected by the king who becomes jealous he's mad because he didn't think he was old enough to go in the battle he's mad because David didn't wear his armor into the battle he's mad because now the women are singing his prayed look at your neighbor say I wish you knew to bible pastor wouldn't had to spend so much time telling the story and the Bible says from that point forward from that moment when the women sang his praises saw sought to kill David I don't know who I'm preaching to today but somebody should get this in your heart and mind and understand that when your boss rejects you it simply means that you have a special assignment from God when they don't want you in the corner don't they don't want to celebrate you when they can't recognize the work you've done when it'll give you a promotion get everybody a promotion around you buddy you ha it's a sign that God has something special at one point in 1st Samuel chapter 29 jot this down first and we chapter 29 please write it down oh oh by the way did I say that saw since soldiers after David he issued a search warrant for them to find David and kill him on a couple of occasions saw through his sword his spear I'm sorry at David to try to kill him oh yeah when they try to kill you try to get you fired try to embarrass you it's just a sign it's just fine y'all y'all listen I'm listening y'all not hear what I'm saying you're not getting this in your spirit if you heard what I said somebody would be running around the building somebody would be shouting cuz I know in this camp I don't know who I'm preaching to but I know you up in here they've been trying to fire you they've been trying to hurt you they've been trying to ruin your name they've been trying to make you look bad but God told me to tell you lift up your head God says I got something special for you be not discouraged or just me they're gonna try to hurt you but they can't hurt you they can't harm you I got some specialty somebody high-five somebody hi fire your neighbor find somebody who agrees with you find somebody who can identify with you I don't know who it is don't just don't just clap the hand of your neighbor find somebody who look like they're going through it too and give him a high five and say hi he talking about me the Lord is speaking to me he's been rejected by his his boss not only did Saul try to kill him but now saw his sin a search warrant out and David finds himself on the run he ends up abandoning his role and responsibilities because they're trying to kill him he leaves his good government job because the king is trying to kill him and he runs into a cave and in the cave unbeknownst to him are a bunch of reject men in the cave are some men who are discontent in debt and in distress a bunch of losers he runs into the cave and he joins himself to this group of men as a matter of fact they choose him has their leader y'all still with me have I lost you yet he finds himself having to find a job and so he and these men go and join the Philistine army y'all missed it this the same army to which he had killed their champion it's a crazy scenario that now he's enlisted into their army it's crazy for him to actually join up in worthless Philistine army it's like it's like a rare skin becoming a Dallas Cowboy it's unfertile crazy ridiculous you know you in bad shape when you got to go and join up with the enemy and now this Philistine army is about to go to battle again with the Israelis and the Philistine general is inspecting his soldiers and he notices among his soldiers these Jewish boys and the general decides that no we're about to fight y'all kinfolk y'all are fired he has lost his good government job he and these group of rejects have lost their government so now he been rejected by the Philistines somebody say look at your neighbors say will you get rejected by your boss but hold up it's not just that he got rejected not only did he get rejected by his family and not only by his employer he got rejected by his coworkers oh now y'all waking up now y'all saying Amen I've been preaching the whole time and it's 11 o'clock I'm old my gosh we're going into overtime look at your neighbor says they'll be all the time the men that he has joined to have now been have lost that government job now they go back to their camp they go back to their homes and when they come back to their camps with their family and their children and the attempts are located they discovered that their camp has been raided it's been set on fire and if their wives and children have been taking captives and the Bible says that this group of reject men began to cry and matter of fact they cried until they had no more tears to weep you know it's sad minced are crying till they have no more tears to weep and they are so sad so bothered so frustrated by the circumstance that they're in that the Bible says right right here in 2nd Samuel I'm sorry First Samuel chapter 30 Jeffrey didn't when you get an opportunity their whole 30th chapter of 1st Samuel it said the men spoke of stoning David who that's the sad thing when you are you about to be killed by your coworkers matter of fact he is now being rejected by the rejects you know you in bad case when the rejects don't want you I don't know who I'm preaching to but somebody better get this in your heart when the rejects don't want you when when other folk don't want to be around you that when the rejects reject you it's all God's trying to tell you is the anointing that is on you for the assignment he has for you is super heavy super special now they don't want you and God don't want you to fit in cuz he had something special for you ah pastor I'm preaching better than y'all are saying Amen here today let me let me hurry up yes this is a sad day it seems sad for David but I know something now David didn't know it then and I'm grateful that I can look back at his life and it can encourage me because I know that when you get rejected by your family rejected by your father rejected by your brothers rejected by your boss and rejected by your coworkers it's an indication that God has something specialist let me let me cut this short let me get to the chase of the matter oh I gotta give you this one last one this is an important one - not only was he rejected by all of those here's the fourth thing he got rejected by holdups in my mind I want to say Amen too loud on this but he got rejected by his spouse I thought somebody might want to say Amen here today you've been rejected by your husband rejected by your wife he can't reject it by his wife let me can I can I paint the story about what happened with him David David has now become King he's now the king and he's now has the assignment of bringing the Ark of the Covenant back to Jerusalem he's going to get the Ark of the Covenant it contains the artifact it contains the sacred artifacts for the nation of Israel for the people of God is in this Ark of the Covenant and it is in another place it should not be it belongs in Jerusalem he goes to get it and on his way to bring it back they discover that that they are carrying it the wrong way that by actually they didn't even know they were carrying it the wrong way but soon as they started carrying it the one of the soldiers one of the servants got struck dead by God because he touched the Ark of the Covenant and they were afraid to carry it any further because somebody else might die y'all with me have I lost you yet so they left it there they left it where it was they left it in the hope of a man in the city where it was and David went back home to figure out what went wrong he discovered they were carrying it improperly and so they go back to get it together and the carrier and so now he's got it right in there caring I feel a shout coming on when I talk about this point right here so now they're carrying a covenant the Ark of the Covenant back home matter of fact visible extracts 30 sin won't charge anything issue with us they carry it six paces and they stop and shout because nobody died after six spaces sometimes you got to learn to shout even though you haven't got to where you're going you're just grateful that you've gone a little way that nothing bad happening just you've gone a little one somebody's they learn this shout learn to shout now man you don't have to wait to the battle is over [Applause] [Music] [Applause] they took it's six paces they stopped they shouted they celebrated they picked it back up they took it back home when they got to Jerusalem and they're bringing the Ark of the Covenant into Jerusalem David is so happy that he is shouting and dancing until he dances out of his clothes I wonder if anybody here ever danced until they danced till yeah Jackie came all to your shoes she had to come out of your shoes he's dancing and celebrating that they've bought it back home whoo y'all excuse me I feel shouting from the window of the king's palace is his wife watching when david finally comes home she says to him the king's show made a fool out of himself today anybody here know what is like to want to look for encouragement from a place that you think you should get encouragement but then you don't get the encouragement I know you wanna clap but you afraid go ahead we wink at me on that path that's the opposite of where he or she is thinking just weaken me and they won't know that yeah yeah yeah I see you alright I can't but I like Davis respond and you and I got to learn how to respond when somebody who you are expecting to encourage you and celebrate you when they don't give it to you if you got to learn to do what David did they even said if you didn't like the way I was dancing the day wait till you see me dance the next hey somebody say you thought I was you thought I was dancing bad this time you wait
