How do we know that believers are precious to God?

Answered in 1 source

Believers are considered precious to God due to the blood of Christ that redeems them (1 Peter 1:18-19).

The preciousness of believers before God is intricately tied to the redemptive work of Jesus Christ. 1 Peter 1:18-19 reminds us that we were not redeemed with perishable things like silver or gold, but with the precious blood of Christ. This shows that God values His chosen ones immensely, attributing their worth not from their own merit but from the sacrificial love of His Son. Therefore, when God looks upon the death of His saints, He sees it as precious because they have been brought into His family at such great cost, highlighting their significance and value in His eyes.
