How many of you since choosing to follow the plan of God for you life have felt rejected and have seen their reputation at stake?  It may even seem that you are losing everything in order to gain favor with God.  I want you to know saints that when the world rejects you that God has chosen you.  The last shall be first, those that are abased will be exalted.  As Christ, the cornerstone was rejected, so will many Sons of God be rejected as they take their identity as Yahshua.  The more that the world rejects you, the more God is in you!  Let's take Esau as a prime example.  Hebrews 12:17 says, referring to Esau, "For ye know how that afterward, when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected..."  Esau lost everything in the natural, his birthright and inheritance as firstborn.  Remember what he lost was in the natural.  He was forced to give up his life in the natural to receive his life in the spiritual.  Even the writer of Hebrews believes that Esau was rejected of God, but it was God that was choosing Esau through this process.  Even John the Baptist, the cousin of Yahshua, struggled with thoughts of rejecting Yahshua as he sat in a prison cell.  He asked if he should look for another Messiah.  Even to this day, Esau is rejected and few can see that the Father inhabited this vessel.  You must understand that Esau came down as an Alpha Son of God.  All that he did was ordained of God.  Genesis 25:25 tells us "And the first came out red, all over like an hairy garment; and they called his name Esau." The word "red" is H132, admoniy.  This word is rooted in H119, adam.  The Ancient Hebrew states that this word is the blood and likeness of God, even the son resembling the Father.  Do you get it?  It was ordained from the beginning for Esau to be a vessel for the Father.  Esau was later named Edom, which means red as well.  Esau went to dwell in the land of Edom, where we find the locations of Sinai, Seir, and Paran.  I encourage you to study what each of these places means since they describe the process that Esau went through.  Esau was rejected of man and lost it all order to put on the fullness of the Father.  Deuteronomuy 33:2 states "The Lord came from Sinai, and rose up from Seir unto them; he shined forth from mount Paran, and he came with ten thousands of saints..."  Who went to dwell in this land and who came forth?  This needs to be broken down even more, so I will provide an anecdote.  In the original superman story, Clark Kent would walk into a telephone booth and Superman would fly out of the same telephone booth.  Anyone paying attention would conclude that they are the same person.  This is what happened with Esau!  This revelation is being sent to the Sons of God that HE is preparing to inhabit in all HIS Glory.  Fear not, but rejoice if you are rejected of men with no earthly reputation, Phillipians 2:7 reminds us that Yahshua "Made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant..."  Are any of us greater than Yahshua, who went through this process?  Certainly not!  If you are reading this, that means that the Father is already maturing you as a Son of God, and you are proclaiming that "If you have seen me, you have seen the Father!"  Saints, I implore you to keep pressing in, seeking, and knocking.  The Father has so much more to reveal to those that will lay it all down and draw close to him!
