Isaiah 46: 9 Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me. 10 Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure.
[2] Nothing takes God by surprise, for He knows the end from the beginning, and because He is able to accurately read all of the fine details of the future, He is able to plan and execute His decisions with a surgical accuracy that can at times baffle the minds of created intelligences.
[3] In every decision that God makes, God carefully weighs the pros and cons, and thus, His decisions are always for the better, and greater good of the universe, and the beings He creates. In other words, even though by creating Lucifer, there would be a lot of pain, suffering, and trouble, at the end of the day, the pros will greatly outweigh the cons. Let’s read:
Isaiah 40:27 Why say you, O Jacob, and speak, O Israel, My way is hid from the Lord, and my judgment is passed over from my God? 28 Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth, faints not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding.
Jeremiah 29: 11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.
May The Lord add His blessing to the study of His word. God bless!
