That sudden disconnect from someone you were close to? It might be divine protection rather than rejection. Faith Bits with Ali tackles the spiritual concept of God divinely separating you from certain connections for your protection and growth.

When relationships end or grow distant, we often question why, especially if we're carrying unhealed wounds of rejection. But as Ali shares from personal experience, these separations frequently serve as protection - preventing us from falling into inappropriate relationships, shielding us from future pain, or removing people whose motives toward us were never pure.

The reality is uncomfortable but powerful: sometimes the very connections we cherish are filling voids that only God should fill. This creates dangerous dynamics where our discernment becomes clouded by familiarity. We ignore that check in our spirit because we value the relationship more than the warning. As Ali wisely observes, "Sometimes people's motives towards you aren't genuine or pure. They may have seen your gifts or what you're able to do for them in that moment, but they never really cared for you."

The path forward requires both healing and discernment - healing from rejection so we can trust God's guidance, and discernment to recognize who is divinely ordained to be in our lives. Through Ali's powerful closing prayer, we're reminded that sometimes God severs connections to make room for alignment with our true purpose and relationships that genuinely honor who we are in Him. Listen now and discover how to partner healing with discernment to navigate divine separation with grace and understanding.

Speaker 1:

Hey everyone, welcome back to Faith Bits with Allie. I'm your host, allie, with your daily faith bit. There are times where the Lord will divinely pull you away from the very people that you're connected to. When he's done that to me, he would reveal to me it was for his protection, you know, preventing me from falling into lust or preventing me from being hurt down the road, or so on and so forth. And during that season, when I wasn't healed from the roots of rejection, I would question why it had to happen. The reality was that person or that connection was giving me a tension or filling a void that they didn't need to be filling.

Speaker 1:

I learned the importance of partnering, healing and discernment, because the thing is, when we are familiar with people, we will question the discernment that God has given us, that check in the spirit that we get. So, yes, sometimes it will hurt when he pulls us away and separates us, but I've learned that in God, doing this is because he knows what's best. Sometimes people's motives towards you aren't genuine or pure, or some of them just never had the capacity to genuinely love you as a person. They may have seen your gifts or what you're able to do for them in that moment, but they never really cared for you. So take some time to go back to the Lord and genuinely heal and pray for discernment so that you will be able to know who is for you and who is not for you.

Speaker 1:

Let me pray for you, lord. We humbly come before you, thanking you for everything that you're doing in our genuinely knowing you and seeking you. And, god, you're the one that fills up our void, and so we repent for placing people in the wrong positions or exalting them higher than you. Higher than you. So we sever ungodly covenants and connections, and, god, we thank you for rightly aligning us to our godly ordained connections In the process of the divine separation that's taken place. God, heal our hearts from any rejection that may take place. In Jesus' name, I pray amen. Peace, love and blessings.
