Answered in 1 source
We know God has chosen us as His soldiers through our faith in Christ and the transformation that leads us to desire to serve Him.
God's choosing of individuals as His soldiers is rooted in His sovereign grace and the work of the Holy Spirit in their lives. The passage encourages believers to reflect on their personal faith journey, emphasizing that those called by God are drawn to live according to His will. This involves recognizing one's unworthiness while simultaneously acknowledging that their identity as a soldier stems from God’s grace and purpose. As believers grow in their relationship with Christ, they become increasingly aware of their role and calling, which strengthens their commitment to serve faithfully in His army.
