9 Signs You're a Chosen One

Many are called, but few are chosen. What does it mean to be chosen? How do you know if you carry a divine purpose that sets you apart?

If you’ve ever felt different, set apart, or spiritually guided in a way others don’t understand, this might resonate with you. Here are 9 powerful signs that you may be chosen.

9. You Can Run, But You Can’t Hide

No matter how far you try to run from your purpose, God always brings you back. You may have tried to fit in, live a "normal" life, or ignore your spiritual gifts. But something always redirects you to God’s calling.

Chosen ones often resist their purpose at first because it feels too big, too different, or too heavy. But the truth is, you were never meant to blend in.

8. God Rebukes You Quickly

Have you ever noticed that you can’t get away with anything? As soon as you step out of alignment, (whether it’s a relationship, a decision, or an opportunity), God immediately blocks it.

📖 Proverbs 3:12 says: "The Lord reproves him whom he loves, as a father the son in whom he delights."

God doesn’t let His chosen ones stray too far because your purpose is too important. If you feel like God keeps pulling you out of things that don’t serve you, take it as confirmation. You're chosen.

7. You’re the Black Sheep of the Family

Being the black sheep doesn’t always mean being the troublemaker. It can mean:

🔷 Feeling different from the people around you
🔷 Being misunderstood, even by family
🔷 Standing out in ways you never intended to

Like Joseph in the Bible, who was set apart from his brothers, chosen ones often feel out of place, even in their own homes. But this difference is divine—it means God has a bigger plan for your life.

6. You Don’t Fit in the World (And You Don’t Even Try)

Do you ever feel like you’re from another world? Like you were dropped here on assignment? If you've searched for explanations for starseeds, old souls, outsiders and etcetera, this could be why.

📖 John 15:19 says: "If you were of the world, the world would love you as its own; but because you are not of the world, I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you."

You weren’t meant to blend in. You were meant to be set apart.

5. You Are Obsessed With Purpose

Some people go through life without questioning anything. But not you.

You’re constantly asking:

👉🏽 Why am I here?
👉🏽 What’s my purpose?
👉🏽 What was I created to do?

Even if you don’t fully know your purpose yet, your desire to find it is proof that you’re chosen. Purpose isn’t revealed all at once. Believe it or not, you've been walking in your purpose your entire life. It will all come together in divine time. 

4. You’ve Had Near-Death Experiences

Many chosen ones have faced life-threatening situations, yet somehow, you survived.

These moments may have been:

🔷 Car accidents that should have been fatal
🔷 Health scares that defied the odds
🔷 Close encounters where you felt divine protection

📖 Psalm 91:7 says: "A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, but it will not come near you."

These experiences are a reminder. Your mission is not over. God is keeping you here for a reason.

3. You Have Spiritual Eyes & Ears

You sense things before they happen. You’ve had prophetic dreams. You can see through deception when others are blind to it.

📖 Matthew 13:16 says: "But blessed are your eyes, for they see, and your ears, for they hear."

If you have spiritual gifts, they are not random. God gives them to those He calls to be leaders, protectors, and guides.

2. You Are Divinely Protected

No matter what people plot against you, it never works.

🔹 People who try to betray you end up exposing themselves.
🔹 Those who try to harm you face consequences without you lifting a finger.
🔹 Situations that should have destroyed you somehow work in your favor.

📖 Isaiah 54:17 says: "No weapon formed against you shall prosper."

The enemy knows you’re chosen. That’s why you face spiritual attacks. But you are untouchable under God’s protection.

1. You Know That God Is Real

You don’t just believe in God. You KNOW He’s real.

You’ve experienced divine intervention.
You’ve seen prayers answered in ways that defy logic.
You’ve felt the presence of God in ways you can’t explain.

Your faith isn’t based on what people say—it’s based on what you’ve lived.

📖 Jeremiah 1:5 says: "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart."

You are here on purpose, for a purpose—and that’s why you’ve always felt different.
