Why is God's predestination significant for Christians?

Answered in 1 source

God's predestination ensures that our salvation is secure and based on His sovereign decree.

Predestination is a foundational doctrine in understanding God's plan for redemption. It reflects that God, in His sovereign will, has chosen certain individuals for salvation before the foundation of the world, as stated in Ephesians 1:4-5. This truth assures believers that their salvation is not a random act but a deliberate purpose of God, which challenges the notion that human will or effort can contribute to salvation. By resting in God's predestining grace, Christians can find profound comfort and assurance in their standing before Him, knowing that it is God's purpose that guarantees their ultimate glorification.
