"We get so focused on who walked away that we neglect who never left." That's not just about your spiritual beliefs nor God. That's also about all of your other relationships as well.
@@blkyogi999 yes Lord. The joker broke up with me and got married. I didn't know he was engaged. Years later his wife divorced him for cheating. Rejection was a blessing 🙏
Thank you 68 yrs old . Father left me sitting waiting for him to take me for a ride. First boyfriend loved him so much, he went to see his mother for a week. Him went and married someone else. Married 25 years to a minister said he wanted to go live his life. The church I was at never felt I belonged. Never invited to outside gatherings. I can now say at 68 remarried at 62 being led to marriage ministry purpose. Ordered this book excited with what God is doing.
This episode was meant for me because funny enough I have been in a toxic relationship I had no courage to leave and I prayed for God to take control and mess it up because I knew I had no business being in that relationship anymore and he broke up with me TODAY under the weirdest circumstance so decided to go for a walk to pray to God about it and saw this episode !! LOOK AT GOD !!
@@charlly3900 it’s ok to grieve. As Nona said, there’s pain there, but deep down inside, you know this is what needed to happen. May Holy Spirit strengthen and comfort you! 🙏🏾🙏🏾
🤧😭😭 See, I don't think Laterras fully know the impact that the 'DearFutureWifey' podcast has on the lives of many people around the globe! This has become my recent go-to place! I come here to unwind! May God bless Laterras!🤧
Amen to that! There is always a divine lesson. ❤God brings us here for a message for each of us as individuals from Him thru Laterras or one of his guests. This podcast was created to heal masses of people and bring them back to God! Thank you Laterras @DearFutureWifey for letting God use you as a vessel. God bless you.
I'm screaming and in tears!!!!! Had to hurry to my prayer closet, because realizing ALL the rejection had a purpose and that God remembers ME. Just bought the book on audible. THANK TOY YOU 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
I’m only 10 minutes into this episode and I had to pause to write this…that story just freed me rejection has been such a stronghold in my life Nona you just SHIFTED my entire mindset my God today 🙌🏽
This episode saved me!!! No word of a lie. Rejection truly is God’s protection - we may never really know the extent of what we’ve been protected from 🙏🏿🙏🏿
Out of all the episodes I’ve listened, this ONE resonated with me the most 🙌🏼 God has definitely protected me but more than that, He is preparing me for what He has for me.
Not only did this episode heal me but it spoke continuously about the supremacy of God. Thank you Nona for this beautiful gift, I can’t wait to purchase it!
Here is the message on my heart after watching: When she said, the Bible says God knew us before we were formed in our mother's womb. 😭😭😭 Even if you have a mother who couldn't love you properly... God already loved you. As tough as it is, being here on Earth will develop and bring a closeness with God that could not be developed in Heaven alone. Praise you Lord Hallelujah, we are blessed 🙌🏾
God knows we can get complacent at times, and that's when He has to intervene. Had God not allowed the rejection, we could never get our blessings and reach our max potential in Him. This was a phenomenonal episode.
"God knows where I am" 😭😭uuuummmmm this is so goooooddddd!!!! You are not an imposter when you are called...you are an imposter when you call yourself!!! Before you do the thing you don't do the thing... God can open doors that no man can shut... God will make a door where there is no door. I love this episode. Thank you it was a timely reminder and message and sermon. It spoke to me directly and deeply. We thank God for this DFW Ministry! God richly bless you both.
I’m going to have this episode on rewind. As someone who has had to endure rejection my entire life, from my parents, in love and career I relate to so much said in this episode, the tears just kept on flowing. I wish I could be mentored by Nona Jones. Her Bible plan on YouVersion is also amazing. I’m definitely getting this book!
I had to do a 2nd comment because this episode brought me chills. I’ve heard her speak on Megan Ashley’s podcast… even listened to her rejection sermon… but that story on her ex made me recognize I HAVE TO lose my yearning for control. God has ordered my steps and the more I go against Him, I’ll never find peace, joy, love , even life. Thank you💕 thank you 💕 thank you 🙏🏾
This episode has truly blessed me. God will be your everything and your everyone when nobody is there. When you have a relationship with God, HE will provide your EVERY NEED/WANT.
Thank you! I literally experienced rejection for the umteenth time and told the Lord, " I have been through this so many times but it still hurts." Then I get a notification for this episode and it seemed like I was the one being interviewed. God had to remind me that He closed doors so I can soar and give Him all the glory!
My goodness this episode is blessing my soul and reconfirming what God has been speaking to me. "I was in the green room BY MYSELF!!" Thank you Lord.. I'm truly embracing sitting "BY MYSELF"
My friend sent this to me. What a revelation, the quote “ the pain is the wrapping paper”, “the gift is in the wrapping paper”. And the analogy of David & the lion. Saul and the revelation, man❤️
I haven’t bought a book over $13 for my bookclub in awhile bc I need my money, but I been wanting to buy a book for adults & decided to buy this one. Nona is God given to this earth & I’m here to support the kingdom of God
We are fixated on the one who left us instead of God, who is always with us and sees us!!!!!!! This episode was deep. I'm so encouraged and my faith is strengthened!!! Thank you Laterras for continuing delivering the best podcast! May you stay blessed.
This is such a blesssing for me. I went through a very hurtful rejection not long ago and unfortunately i see this individual OFTEN. But God is very faithful, looking forward to see the reward from this.
THIS!!! 🙌🏾😭 I accept the gift disguised as rejection. Yah will never leave nor forsake. That's an immutable fact I had trouble reconciling because I had a dad that NEVER showed up for me and the church folks testified and sang about the god who "may not come when you want him." He shows up. BUT as I got in the Word and accepted Yah's invitation to relationship, I learned, from experience, that He is ALWAYS with me. Awesome interview. Looking forward to reading the book.
Awesome discussion on rejection. I am experiencing a manager at work that says that she’s advocating for me, but the exact opposite is happening. As she’s keeping leadership opportunities from me, God is making another way and is setting a table before me in the presence of my “enemy.” This discussion was right on time and very encouraging. Thank you!
This episode is SO timely, it’s like God is reassuring me in a time of asking the why’s of the rejection I have dealt with my entire life. Thank you💜💜💜💜
Omg this episode has really touched me, bc I realized I haven't healed. I have matured but I still carry so much from my past. Things going back to high school being a tall woman self image has always been my issue. They way people made me feel about my height stayed with me. I'm 5"10 by the way, I'm finally starting the journey of finding a therapist this year.
Tears are running down my face and I’m watching this for the second time today😢 I’m a witness that the gift of non-acceptance and substandard treatment has drawn me closer to God Lord I thank you for the abandonment I’ve had to endure. Lord I thank you for knowing where I was all along 😭 Lord I will NOT take the credit because I know without a shadow of doubt that I’m not qualified!!! As long as God is pleased; an audience of one - Nona Jones TGBTG🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
This episode completely messed me up!! I literally paused it several times just to catch my breath! YOU … Mrs Jones … are juuuuuust on another level! I don’t think you even realise what you carry!! In South Africa we say ‘Thixo’ when we speechless! This podcast has been my best ever ever! You are pure Gold Mam! Thank you.
"What you don't deal with won't heal".... This interview was such a blessing to me. I need to deal with this rejection Ice experienced. I got some more of her wisdom at Women Evolve. Got my book too.
You said “I pray this is blessing someone”, please know this interview blessed me and I’m sure many others more than you can imagine. Thank you for being obedient to Gods voice in your life. Look so very forward to reading your book.
I've heard and read the story of David's anointing so often but I've never heard someone connect the story to the revelation that "God knows where you are". What a testament to the living nature of God's Word and another incredible facet of David's life story. Thank you Nona for your transparency and obedience. Thanks Laterras for your faithfulness. Blessings to you both!!! 🙏🏾
That was my spirit screaming!! I had to stop it at that moment and give God some praise because I just had a rejection out of the blue and didn't know why!! BUT GOD!! REJECTION IS GOD'S PROTECTION!! GLORY TO GOD!!!!🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Wow Minister Nona! That is AMAZING! I’ve got a new perspective on rejection!!! I have listened to you many times and I have always been inspired as well as being enlightened. Your book and outlook on rejection will heal the world! THANK YOU AND PRAISE THE LORD!!!
This is soooooooo uplifting and inspiring. I'm 64 and still waiting ok my promised husband after 27yrs of divorce. A few months ago the Lord answered my questions on why have you forsaken my desires. HE answered with, " I have hidden you". I'm fathfully and hopefully standing on HIS Word❤❤❤❤❤
I cried watching this entire episode! I work 2 hours from my home and is currently renting a place near my job to be closer to work. I’m off on Thursdays and as soon as I got off work I headed home 2 hours away and pulled up in the driveway to see I had a package. I had preordered The Gift Of Rejection and forgot about it. I opened my package and was so excited that it had finally arrived. My plan was to read it but I got home kind of late so I went to sleep and this morning opened TH-cam to find my morning motivation video but saw Dear Future Wifey podcast with Nona Jones on. I watched the video instead and cried the entire episode. I cannot wait to dive into this book! I am so thankful for God and The Dear Future Wifey Podcast and Nona Jones. Thank you both for doing God’s work and helping Gods people heal. ❤❤❤
No words can express how this episode truly touches my heart. I felted rejection several times throughout my life. I am not where I want to be yet, however I thank God I'm not where I use to be.
I attended a conference that she spoke at and I resonated with her about the cloud of rejection that stayed over her in childhood and early adulthood. The perspective that she shared there and here was an epiphany. I held myself accountable and started to do the work to heal the trauma that started with parental rejection that followed me in every area of my life. Nona's message is transformative and continues to be one of the catalysts that has turned my journey from being a place of constant betrayal, embarrassment and perceived failure to finding more ways to incorporate joy in my life and uplift others.
I am so grateful for this platform and this episode. I have suffered so many rejections and currently suffering from imposter syndrome as I am at the end of completing my graduate degree. Thank you for the encouragement. God is indeed faithful
My God. What a blessing. I’m getting the book and giving as a gift to a family member. Thank you Nona for being obedient to the Lord - sharing your own rejection to help others heal ❤
This was such a blessing for me to listen to as a person who has been rejected by my entire family! It all makes sense from the perspective of how she explained rejection and its true purpose if I can see things according to God's word over my life! But the process can be devastating especially being alone.
This has bless my heart to no end. I felt the chains being removed and a restoring. All those rejections that I've faced. Hallelujah... Hallelujah... Hallelujah
I am that 50 year old you spoke about. I haven’t stop crying listening to this message. Whew this has ministered to my heart head and hands. “The Gift of Rejection” now I must unwrap this pain because there is a gift in it. Many times I have been not qualified but God. I have been left in the field feeling all alone but every time God knew where Staci was. God is faithful. Thanks for sharing. I passed this video many times but today I heard God say unmute it and all I heard was “The Gift of Rejection” I pressed play. It was just what I needed today. Again thanks.😢😢😢❤❤❤
Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just had to push pause! The video is paused at 23:15 and I am in tears! And I'm at work! (thought I'd listen to this while eating my lunch!!) Thank you, thank you, thank you Nona for sharing your testimony and your revelation pertaining David. Thank you Laterras for having her on your podcast again! I guess I will finish this some time soon....Idk whew!
Omg this is one of the best videos. Mrs. Jones is such a powerful teacher. I was hooked on this video from the very start. Thank you I needed this video because the rejection of my divorce hit hard. These last 4yrs have been crazy to say the least. Divorced 2yrs ago and I thought I wasn't going to make it. God saved my life. God is so good. 🙌🏾
This whole interview was right on time. Thank you both for your ministry. I went up to the altar this past Sunday for a fresh anointing, I felt amazing by Tuesday I was reminded of the gift of rejection and abandoned that has attached itself to my life but now I know how to live with it healthily❤
I made my Audible purchase…physical copy will come soon. Thank you Preacher Laterras for having Teacher-Minister Nona Jones. This has impacted me in many ways. God will remain praised. 🙌🏾💛🙌🏾
Gm Laterras, Nona Jones is an awesome author, you can tell that she lives what she writes about. I saw myself in her book, although, I have not read it yet. I have felt dismissed, rejected, and extreme loneliness all at the same time, although my confession to myself was “God is with me,” and he brings me much comfort while remembering his word which says, “He will never leave me, nor forsake me”. Everything she has spoken on this podcast today, spoke to me, and has truly lifted my spirit. This podcast today is what I needed to hear. I can't wait to receive my books, I know that they will be a blessing to myself and my daughter, who is a gifted jeweler, who herself have experienced rejection. I'll also share them with my preacher husband. Thank God for Jesus being in our lives. Thank you Ms Jones for allowing God to speak through you, encouraging us your listeners and sharing with us that, God is with us and in control as long as we surrender our lives to him. God bless you in all that you do in his name. Regards, ldm
Thank you LRW for this episode. Only 25 minutes in and I am already experiencing healing. Grew up feeling rejected by people in my community, but God is so faithful. Where I am today is a testament to God's power. I thank God for the pain because of this revelation.
This message was amazing!!! May God use it as a tool to heal those that have been broken for years due to life circumstances. Glory to the Most High God for being faithful!!!
23:34 yes🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽this has been relevant for me not only in relationships but in the workplace as well. I can’t tell you how many sermons I’ve listened to in the last 2 weeks that have referenced David’s story. THANK YOU GOD for knowing that I was there 🙌🏽
LT., thank you so much for continually allowing yourself to be used of God by bringing Gifts to us. Nona Jones, God bless her! She is a Gem and a Gift to the body of Jesus . @Dear Future Wifey@Laterras Whitfield you are such a blesing
God Bless you! I was literally sitting here feeling rejected after I lost a childhood friend and was left out of his home going celebration. I felt all the emotions you shared and was blessed by your testimony. I am definitely ordering the book and will start walking in my purpose. Keep changing lives.❤
This was so good! Every example that Nona shared, I could see examples in my life where God spared me and came through when others disregarded me, attempted to block me, or rejected me. Even as I currently walk through rejection, I'm reminded that He came through before, and He will do it again. God's hand is with us even when we don't see Him moving. No one can block what God has for us. ALL things work together for good to those who love Him and are called to His purpose.
First and foremost thank you for the both of you. The tears are well enough in my eyes again. Even though I'm used to rejection but the invasion of my privacy is humiliating..
This is so bliss,I cant believe this is so clearly helpful.I am truly so amazed.The Act of rejection hurts but WHAT IT CAN TEACH YOU ABOUT YOURSELF; this is just God!
Her testimony of her being rejected by her EX and then him being killed by his side piece whoooooo I have a whole different perspective on rejection now! I will thank God for rejection NOW! Great episode. She is very wise.
I needed this revelation and reminder. GOD sees ME. Rejection is a gift.. Accepting what God allows and knowing that he still there with you through it all ❤️🏆✨😩
Laterras, I really enjoyed this episode and I really loved the letter at the end. That letter is my favorite so far; and the song You (Dear Future Wifey) you wrote for David Micheal Wyatt, was playing in my mind in the background as you read it. I hope when you and your wife find each other, you'll both be healed, whole and at the place you need to be in your lives to receive and love each other properly. I pray that you two find each other soon!
I receive the gift of rejection and await the unwrapping of my blessings! This was rich and I’m full! I will definitely be getting this book! What an awesome woman of God you are Nona Jones! God bless you both! 🙏🏽
I remember the story of the Pastor being murdered. It was very tragic and sad. God has a way of showing us things about our life, HE is so sovereign. Everything that happens is truly connected with a purpose.
OMGGGG!!! This episode blessed me!!! “God knows exactly where you are.” The David reference of him working in a field was spot on. Your name being in places you haven’t yet been invited to is definitely Gods work!!! Loved this episode!!!
Now, I normally dont comment and I normally dont like a video until the end. BUT let me tell you.. I'm only 9 minutes into the show and had to pause it to make sure I like and make a comment.. I'm 9 minutes into this video and Nona has already gave a whole WORD!!
Thank you for this interview. I have suffered severe rejection throughout my life but I am healing from it and God is using that experience to build godly character, resilience and deep trust in him.
This episode kept popping up and every time I scrolled pass it. Tonight I scrolled pass again but the video started playing. Nona really ministered to me.🙏🏼 Can't wait to read your book😊
Nona Jones is or I should say was- in the chats section of this live giving encouragement and sharing positivity, which is so fulfilling and a testament of what an amazing person she is. She commented, 'you are not an impostor, you are an ambassador.' I replied to that and added, you are a healer. A teacher. A doctor. A wife. A mother. A husband. A father. A chef. Etc. You are whomever you are meant to be. Whatever your calling, your dharma, your purpose, your ministry, etc is, you manifest your morals and values, ie your spiritual beliefs and understanding of your God, each and every time that you carry out your purpose. I say all of this to caution those of us, like myself, who'll sometimes interpret words' meanings quite literally, from taking the word ambassador to mean just being a representative of your spiritual beliefs, or if God. Rather, it's an invitation to live the gospel; and your dharma, purpose etc, is just a vehicle with which you can do that.
I thoroughly enjoyed this interview. It was both encouraging, enlightening, and inspiring. Thankful that the Lord qualifies the called! Sister Nona Jones is very articulate, and it's very evident that she is intimate with the Father and well-versed in His Word. This overall program has encouraged me to continue waiting on the Lord for my next chapter. He knows what's best for me, and I trust Him implicitly! Thanks for a power-packed podcast, Brother Latteras!
"God says, You weren't rejected, I hid your value from them because they were not assigned to your destiny.”❤
I felt that thing!
Yes, Amen!🙏🏾
I agree!!!
Whewwwww 😭🔥🔥🔥
🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
“You’re not an imposter when you’re called. You’re an imposter when you call yourself.” Everything about this episode was timely for me 🙏🏾.
"We get so focused on who walked away that we neglect who never left." That's not just about your spiritual beliefs nor God. That's also about all of your other relationships as well.
AMEN
Whewwwww Amen!!
This is my story. What i thought was rejection was a blessing.
Dodged a bullet
@@blkyogi999 yes Lord. The joker broke up with me and got married. I didn't know he was engaged. Years later his wife divorced him for cheating. Rejection was a blessing 🙏
Thank you 68 yrs old . Father left me sitting waiting for him to take me for a ride. First boyfriend loved him so much, he went to see his mother for a week. Him went and married someone else.

That sounds like my story. Thank you for sharing.
Nona, this is Apiffany. No one is bigger than God!! You don’t need to Oprah!!
🤧😭😭
See, I don't think Laterras fully know the impact that the 'DearFutureWifey' podcast has on the lives of many people around the globe!
This has become my recent go-to place!
I come here to unwind!
May God bless Laterras!🤧
Thank you so much. I'm honored.
Amen to that

That statement, "Pain is just wrapping paper", hit home for me! This episode is epic!!!🔥🔥🔥
That hit me like 🎯 😮💨🙌🏾
I'm screaming and in tears!!!!! Had to hurry to my prayer closet, because realizing ALL the rejection had a purpose and that God remembers ME. Just bought the book on audible. THANK TOY YOU 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
What a blessing! There is a reason for the isolation, the rejection, and the loneliness. He is preserving me. Thank you Lord.
Amen I’ve lamented, cried drugged about all the aforementioned issues thank you and boy does God know how to things to you
I’m only 10 minutes into this episode and I had to pause to write this…that story just freed me rejection has been such a stronghold in my life Nona you just SHIFTED my entire mindset my God today 🙌🏽

I’ve been fasting today with my church, I don’t have the words to express how much this episode blessed me.
Praise God
👏How Nona explained the story of David to link it to our rejection stories is so powerful my nextdoor neighbors definitely heard me clapping!
This is a story of just how good God is. Mannnnn
God knows we can get complacent at times, and that's when He has to intervene. Had God not allowed the rejection, we could never get our blessings and reach our max potential in Him. This was a phenomenonal episode.
It's no cliche. We all have a story to tell I'm sure regarding Rejection being the ULTIMATE protection!!! Thank YA!!
I bet your story is really juicy!
Years of sadness because of rejection now understood and accepted…..just from this episode!! God bless you!! Ordering the book right now!
You and me both. I'm so blessed to hear this for you sister ❤️ 🎉🎉 Let God use you!
"God knows where I am" 😭😭uuuummmmm this is so goooooddddd!!!! You are not an imposter when you are called...you are an imposter when you call yourself!!!

I don’t really comment on podcast or anything, very rare, but THIS has BLESSED my spirit soul and body. I think I’m going to cry. Thank you
Same sis ❤
This episode FREED ME. Specifically the part right after Nona said “I hope this blesses someone” around minute 34 😭❤
She is really ministering.😢
Whew Nona Jones! You helping the people. I cried at my desk listening to your message you preached. I almost needed an usher at work.
😂
Nona Jones is one of my FAVORITE female preachers!!🫶🏾 Her story truly helped me today. Thank you Jesus!🙌🏾 God has given her a powerful ministry!🙏🏾
I’m going to have this episode on rewind. As someone who has had to endure rejection my entire life, from my parents, in love and career I relate to so much said in this episode, the tears just kept on flowing. I wish I could be mentored by Nona Jones. Her Bible plan on YouVersion is also amazing. I’m definitely getting this book!
This video tops the all other videos I have watched from the series.
God is sovereign over all.

This episode has truly blessed me. God will be your everything and your everyone when nobody is there. When you have a relationship with God, HE will provide your EVERY NEED/WANT.
Wow! 🤯 "We are born an original but die a duplicate" Nona Jones
The analogy for David got me …I never thought or saw it as rejection but Nona u opened something in me 😢

Blessings to you both!!! 🙏🏾
This just broke something off me!!!! JESUS!!!!!!!!!😭😭😭 I desperately needed this word today!!
I screamed!!!! 10 minutes in and I'm filled with tears. Confirmation and encouragement all in one. Thank You God ❤
That was my spirit screaming!! I had to stop it at that moment and give God some praise because I just had a rejection out of the blue and didn't know why!! BUT GOD!! REJECTION IS GOD'S PROTECTION!! GLORY TO GOD!!!!🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Wow Minister Nona! That is AMAZING! I’ve got a new perspective on rejection!!! I have listened to you many times and I have always been inspired as well as being enlightened. Your book and outlook on rejection will heal the world!
THANK YOU AND PRAISE THE LORD!!!
She definitely has helped me look at rejection different.
From the start of this video…..it’s like Nona heard my talks with God. To GOD be the glory because I thank God for the rejection.
This is soooooooo uplifting and inspiring. I'm 64 and still waiting ok my promised husband after 27yrs of divorce. A few months ago the Lord answered my questions on why have you forsaken my desires. HE answered with, " I have hidden you". I'm fathfully and hopefully standing on HIS Word❤❤❤❤❤
You still desire marriage at 64?
I cried watching this entire episode! I work 2 hours from my home and is currently renting a place near my job to be closer to work. I’m off on Thursdays and as soon as I got off work I headed home 2 hours away and pulled up in the driveway to see I had a package. I had preordered The Gift Of Rejection and forgot about it. I opened my package and was so excited that it had finally arrived. My plan was to read it but I got home kind of late so I went to sleep and this morning opened TH-cam to find my morning motivation video but saw Dear Future Wifey podcast with Nona Jones on. I watched the video instead and cried the entire episode. I cannot wait to dive into this book! I am so thankful for God and The Dear Future Wifey Podcast and Nona Jones. Thank you both for doing God’s work and helping Gods people heal. ❤❤❤
God knew where David was...I felt that! #HeSeesMe
No words can express how this episode truly touches my heart. I felted rejection several times throughout my life. I am not where I want to be yet, however I thank God I'm not where I use to be.
I attended a conference that she spoke at and I resonated with her about the cloud of rejection that stayed over her in childhood and early adulthood. The perspective that she shared there and here was an epiphany. I held myself accountable and started to do the work to heal the trauma that started with parental rejection that followed me in every area of my life. Nona's message is transformative and continues to be one of the catalysts that has turned my journey from being a place of constant betrayal, embarrassment and perceived failure to finding more ways to incorporate joy in my life and uplift others.
I am so grateful for this platform and this episode. I have suffered so many rejections and currently suffering from imposter syndrome as I am at the end of completing my graduate degree. Thank you for the encouragement. God is indeed faithful
This episode is fire 🔥 this queen said rejection is just wrapping paper, the true gift is inside! Thank you so much. I really needed to hear that.❤
My God. What a blessing. I’m getting the book and giving as a gift to a family member. Thank you Nona for being obedient to the Lord - sharing your own rejection to help others heal ❤
This was such a blessing for me to listen to as a person who has been rejected by my entire family! It all makes sense from the perspective of how she explained rejection and its true purpose if I can see things according to God's word over my life! But the process can be devastating especially being alone.
All I'm going to say is...I'm getting this book! GREAT interview. 🔥
This blessed me beyond what I could have imagined. Nona, thank you for your honesty and openness. Books in the mail!!!!
This has bless my heart to no end. I felt the chains being removed and a restoring. All those rejections that I've faced. Hallelujah... Hallelujah... Hallelujah
I am that 50 year old you spoke about. I haven’t stop crying listening to this message. Whew this has ministered to my heart head and hands. “The Gift of Rejection” now I must unwrap this pain because there is a gift in it. Many times I have been not qualified but God. I have been left in the field feeling all alone but every time God knew where Staci was. God is faithful.
Thanks for sharing. I passed this video many times but today I heard God say unmute it and all I heard was “The Gift of Rejection” I pressed play.
It was just what I needed today.
Again thanks.😢😢😢❤❤❤
Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just had to push pause! The video is paused at 23:15 and I am in tears! And I'm at work! (thought I'd listen to this while eating my lunch!!) Thank you, thank you, thank you Nona for sharing your testimony and your revelation pertaining David. Thank you Laterras for having her on your podcast again! I guess I will finish this some time soon....Idk whew!
Omg this is one of the best videos. Mrs. Jones is such a powerful teacher. I was hooked on this video from the very start. Thank you I needed this video because the rejection of my divorce hit hard. These last 4yrs have been crazy to say the least. Divorced 2yrs ago and I thought I wasn't going to make it. God saved my life. God is so good. 🙌🏾
This whole interview was right on time. Thank you both for your ministry. I went up to the altar this past Sunday for a fresh anointing, I felt amazing by Tuesday I was reminded of the gift of rejection and abandoned that has attached itself to my life but now I know how to live with it healthily❤
“I’m not qualified to be here. And the Lord said, that’s why I called you.” 😭😭😭🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
I made my Audible purchase…physical copy will come soon. Thank you Preacher Laterras for having Teacher-Minister Nona Jones. This has impacted me in many ways. God will remain praised. 🙌🏾💛🙌🏾
Gm Laterras, Nona Jones is an awesome author, you can tell that she lives what she writes about. I saw myself in her book, although, I have not read it yet. I have felt dismissed, rejected, and extreme loneliness all at the same time, although my confession to myself was “God is with me,” and he brings me much comfort while remembering his word which says, “He will never leave me, nor forsake me”.
Everything she has spoken on this podcast today, spoke to me, and has truly lifted my spirit. This podcast today is what I needed to hear. I can't wait to receive my books, I know that they will be a blessing to myself and my daughter, who is a gifted jeweler, who herself have experienced rejection.
I'll also share them with my preacher husband. Thank God for Jesus being in our lives. Thank you Ms Jones for allowing God to speak through you, encouraging us your listeners and sharing with us that, God is with us and in control as long as we surrender our lives to him.
God bless you in all that you do in his name.
Regards,
ldm
Thank you LRW for this episode. Only 25 minutes in and I am already experiencing healing. Grew up feeling rejected by people in my community, but God is so faithful. Where I am today is a testament to God's power. I thank God for the pain because of this revelation.
This message was amazing!!! May God use it as a tool to heal those that have been broken for years due to life circumstances. Glory to the Most High God for being faithful!!!
23:34 yes🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽this has been relevant for me not only in relationships but in the workplace as well. I can’t tell you how many sermons I’ve listened to in the last 2 weeks that have referenced David’s story. THANK YOU GOD for knowing that I was there 🙌🏽
LT., thank you so much for continually allowing yourself to be used of God by bringing Gifts to us.
Nona Jones, God bless her! She is a Gem and a Gift to the body of Jesus .
@Dear Future Wifey@Laterras Whitfield you are such a blesing
God Bless you!
I was literally sitting here feeling rejected after I lost a childhood friend and was left out of his home going celebration. I felt all the emotions you shared and was blessed by your testimony. I am definitely ordering the book and will start walking in my purpose.
Keep changing lives.❤
This was so good! Every example that Nona shared, I could see examples in my life where God spared me and came through when others disregarded me, attempted to block me, or rejected me. Even as I currently walk through rejection, I'm reminded that He came through before, and He will do it again. God's hand is with us even when we don't see Him moving. No one can block what God has for us. ALL things work together for good to those who love Him and are called to His purpose.
#Preach! Yessss!!!🥹
This episode really blessed my soul. I get rejected a lot, but I realized that God is protecting me from certain people places and environments.
Nona continue to do what you are doing. Your message is breaking chains, barriers and inviting God’s radiant light.
First and foremost thank you for the both of you. The tears are well enough in my eyes again. Even though I'm used to rejection but the invasion of my privacy is humiliating..
This is so bliss,I cant believe this is so clearly helpful.I am truly so amazed.The Act of rejection hurts but WHAT IT CAN TEACH YOU ABOUT YOURSELF;
this is just God!
Her testimony of her being rejected by her EX and then him being killed by his side piece whoooooo I have a whole different perspective on rejection now! I will thank God for rejection NOW! Great episode. She is very wise.
I needed this revelation and reminder. GOD sees ME. Rejection is a gift.. Accepting what God allows and knowing that he still there with you through it all ❤️🏆✨😩
Laterras, I really enjoyed this episode and I really loved the letter at the end. That letter is my favorite so far; and the song You (Dear Future Wifey) you wrote for David Micheal Wyatt, was playing in my mind in the background as you read it. I hope when you and your wife find each other, you'll both be healed, whole and at the place you need to be in your lives to receive and love each other properly. I pray that you two find each other soon!
I receive the gift of rejection and await the unwrapping of my blessings! This was rich and I’m full! I will definitely be getting this book! What an awesome woman of God you are Nona Jones! God bless you both! 🙏🏽
I remember the story of the Pastor being murdered. It was very tragic and sad. God has a way of showing us things about our life, HE is so sovereign. Everything that happens is truly connected with a purpose.
Where did it happen?
@@gretablackwoodTennessee
I know the details of that story well.
OMGGGG!!! This episode blessed me!!! “God knows exactly where you are.” The David reference of him working in a field was spot on. Your name being in places you haven’t yet been invited to is definitely Gods work!!! Loved this episode!!!
I love this one. Praise God 🙏🏽. Thanks for this one and Nona using the Bible makes it extra special..using the WORD as her weapon! Strong !!!
Now, I normally dont comment and I normally dont like a video until the end. BUT let me tell you.. I'm only 9 minutes into the show and had to pause it to make sure I like and make a comment.. I'm 9 minutes into this video and Nona has already gave a whole WORD!!
Thank you for this interview. I have suffered severe rejection throughout my life but I am healing from it and God is using that experience to build godly character, resilience and deep trust in him.
This episode kept popping up and every time I scrolled pass it. Tonight I scrolled pass again but the video started playing. Nona really ministered to me.🙏🏼 Can't wait to read your book😊
THIS IS THE ONE! Whew! She is anointed for this. This episode is goated for me. Latteras, Thank You!!
Nona Jones is or I should say was- in the chats section of this live giving encouragement and sharing positivity, which is so fulfilling and a testament of what an amazing person she is. She commented, 'you are not an impostor, you are an ambassador.' I replied to that and added, you are a healer. A teacher. A doctor. A wife. A mother. A husband. A father. A chef. Etc. You are whomever you are meant to be. Whatever your calling, your dharma, your purpose, your ministry, etc is, you manifest your morals and values, ie your spiritual beliefs and understanding of your God, each and every time that you carry out your purpose.
I say all of this to caution those of us, like myself, who'll sometimes interpret words' meanings quite literally, from taking the word ambassador to mean just being a representative of your spiritual beliefs, or if God. Rather, it's an invitation to live the gospel; and your dharma, purpose etc, is just a vehicle with which you can do that.
Whew!! Amen! When you feel left out in the field..God knows exactly where you are ❤
I thoroughly enjoyed this interview. It was both encouraging, enlightening, and inspiring. Thankful that the Lord qualifies the called! Sister Nona Jones is very articulate, and it's very evident that she is intimate with the Father and well-versed in His Word. This overall program has encouraged me to continue waiting on the Lord for my next chapter. He knows what's best for me, and I trust Him implicitly! Thanks for a power-packed podcast, Brother Latteras!
Nona Jones is such an inspiration and help to us .Thankful for the gift of rejection and her wisdom. Appreciate this episode❤️❤️
