This is a spotlight on the Scripture, Isaiah 45:7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.
God's eternal nature ensures the Church's security in Jesus, and His divine qualities guarantee the fulfillment of all promises to the Church in Jesus. Don't miss the spiritual lessons in this text: if the Lord is the eternal Creator of both light and darkness, who else can we turn to for spiritual light to dispel the darkness in our souls, blinded by sin, but to Him alone? God, who first said 'Let there be light' and there was light, He was pleased to create light in our hearts to reveal the glory of God in Jesus Christ!"
The Bible also says that God is the creator of Evil. Listen the word evil does not mean wickedness in this instance, but rather “sorrow, difficulties, or tragedies”—those things which are the fruit of evil, the fruit of sin. This is the Old Testament way of saying, “The wages of sin is death …” If you indulge in sin, there will be a payday for it!. By the way, let me introduce something else at this point since we are living in a day when it is said that good and evil are relative terms, that whatever you think is good, is good. The argument is put forth: The Bible says “Thou shalt not kill” and “Thou shalt not steal” (Exo_20:13, Exo_20:15). But what is the Bible? Who should obey it? Or why should we listen to the God of the Bible?
The Lord has another very persuasive argument. God says that if you indulge in sin, you will find that sin has its payday. It pays a full wage, by the way. This is what God is saying through Isaiah. God has so created the universe that when you break over the bounds that He has set, you don't need human punishment- God will take care of it. Those who trust in God will never be made ashamed of their confidence in Him. This is a spotlight on the Scripture.
