How do we know God knows each of His people by name?

Answered in 1 source

God knows each of His people by name, as He has called them individually, demonstrating His personal relationship with each believer.

The personal nature of God's relationship with His people is highlighted in His act of calling them by name. In Isaiah 43:1, God reassures Israel, saying, 'Fear not, for I have redeemed thee; I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine.' This emphasizes that God not only knows us but has a unique, intimate connection to each of His chosen ones. Jesus also reflects this in John 10:3, where He states, 'He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out.' Such personal calling reflects God's sovereignty and deep love for His elect.
