Scriptures to break the stronghold of REJECTION
Although my father and my mother have forsaken me, yet the Lord will take me up [adopt me as His child]. [Ps 22:10.] Ps 27:10 AMP
When my father and my mother forsake me,then the LORD will take care of me. Ps 27:10 NKJV
What a man desires is unfailing love; better to be poor than a liar. The fear of the LORD leads to life: Then one rests content, untouched by trouble. Prov 19:22-23 NIV
What then shall we say to these things ? If God is for us, who can be against us ? He Who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all; how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things? Who shall bring a charge against God's elect ? It is God Who justifies..Who will separate us from the Love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword ? As it is written: " For Your sake we are killed all day long; We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter" Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord . Romans 8:31-33, 35-39 NKJV

Show Your marvelous lovingkindness by Your right hand, O You who save those who trust in You from those who rise up against them. Keep me as the apple of Your eye; Hide me under the shadow of Your wings, from the wicked who oppress me, from my deadly enemies who surround me. Psalm 17:6-9 NKJV
I will love You, O Lord, my strength. The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer; My God, my strength, in whom I will trust ; My shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold. I will call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised; so shall I be saved from my enemies. He sent from above, He took me; He drew me out of many waters. He delivered me from my strong enemy, from those who hated me; for they were too strong for me. They confronted me in the day of my calamity, but the Lord was my support. He also brought me out into a broad place; He delivered me because HE DELIGHTED IN ME !
