This concept is prevalent throughout the Scriptures, where God frequently chooses individuals or groups for specific roles, tasks, or blessings.<br><br><b>Divine Selection</b><br><br>One of the most significant examples of divine selection is the choosing of Israel as God's chosen people. In <a href="/deuteronomy/7-6.htm">Deuteronomy 7:6</a> , it is written, "For you are a people holy to the LORD your God. The LORD your God has chosen you to be a people for His prized possession, above all the peoples on the face of the earth." This selection was not based on Israel's merit but on God's love and faithfulness to His promises.<br><br><b>Chosen Leaders</b><br><br>Throughout the Old Testament, God picked leaders to guide His people. Moses was chosen to lead the Israelites out of Egypt (<a href="/exodus/3-10.htm">Exodus 3:10</a>), and David was selected to be king over Israel (<a href="/1_samuel/16-12.htm">1 Samuel 16:12-13</a>). These selections were often accompanied by anointing, symbolizing God's empowerment and blessing for the task ahead.<br><br><b>The Apostles</b><br><br>In the New Testament, Jesus picked His disciples, who would later become the apostles. In <a href="/john/15-16.htm">John 15:16</a> , Jesus tells them, "You did not choose Me, but I chose you. And I appointed you to go and bear fruit&#8212;fruit that will remain&#8212;so that whatever you ask the Father in My name, He will give you." This selection underscores the idea that God&#8217;s choices are purposeful and aligned with His divine plan.<br><br><b>The Elect</b><br><br>The concept of being "picked" extends to the doctrine of election, where believers are seen as chosen by God for salvation. <a href="/ephesians/1-4.htm">Ephesians 1:4</a> states, "For He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world to be holy and blameless in His presence." This choice is rooted in God's grace and is a source of assurance and identity for Christians.<br><br><b>Spiritual Gifts</b><br><br>In the context of spiritual gifts, God picks individuals to receive specific gifts for the edification of the church. <a href="/1_corinthians/12-11.htm">1 Corinthians 12:11</a> notes, "All these are the work of one and the same Spirit, who apportions them to each one as He determines." This selection is intended to build up the body of Christ and advance His kingdom.<br><br><b>Conclusion</b><br><br>The theme of being "picked" in the Bible highlights God's sovereignty and intentionality in His interactions with humanity. Whether it is the selection of a nation, a leader, or an individual believer, God's choices are always purposeful and reflect His divine will and love.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.
