How do we know that David was chosen as king by God?

Answered in 1 source

David was chosen by God as king, as evidenced by his anointing through the prophet Samuel.

David's election as king was divinely orchestrated, beginning with his anointing by the prophet Samuel as detailed in 1 Samuel 16. This anointing signified God's choice of David to lead Israel, foreshadowing the ultimate leadership of Christ, the Son of David. As the men of Judah recognized and anointed David as king over them after Saul's death, it reaffirmed God's sovereign choice and plan to establish David's reign, as seen in 2 Samuel 2:4.
