Do pay attention to the words used.Isaiah 45:7
I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.
The Creator is in control of both good AND evil. He brings to life and He takes. There isn’t a competition between God and Satan
He creates (1254) darkness and creates evil.
Yet he forms (3335) the light, like a potter forms things from clay. The light was already there, just as the clay was. He is not the source of the light. He gives it shape.
He makes (6213) peace, but peace is negotiated with those who do war. When people want peace, they pray to the god of war, or negotiate with the adversary.
