When I first entered the faith I found Isaiah 45:7.
What I've observed when speaking with fellow Christians is that the power of God often fails to be fully understood. Even when God informs us of those powers in his own words.
Prophecy is a huge part of both testaments.
That prophecy exists is evidence of God doing just as he says.
Romans 8:28 "And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose."
God is the Alpha and the Omega. The beginning and the end.
You really think God created evil?
If you knew scripture you would know that lucifer perverted righteousness by choosing to be in opposition to God.... anybody that thinks God created evil does not know the Lord or His Word.
James 1:13
Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man:
1 John 1:5
This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
Ezekiel 28:15 (speaking of lucifer)
Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee.
God created lucifer perfect... until lucifer decided to be in opposition to God:
Isaiah 14:13 (speaking of lucifer)
For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
Isaiah 45:7 has been badly butchered and is not reflective of what the Lord says in 1 John 1:5 - This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
It's sad that some folks accept the devil's lies about God which are designed by satan to make them believe God puts evil on His own people tricking them to lay down under satanic attack and receive defeat having become convinced it's the Lord doing it but it's actually bowing down to darkness allowing devils to bring defeat upon them.
This is a classic tactic used in times of war to hit your enemy in such a way they they don't know they just got hit by their enemy.
This is how satan makes a fool out of Christians!
