Psalm 139:16 - "...in Your book were all written the days that were ordained for me, when as yet there was not one of them." Proverbs 16:33 - "The lot is cast into the lap, but its every decision is from the Lord." Isaiah 46:10 - "...My purpose will be established, and I will accomplish all My good pleasure." Ephesians 1:11 - "...[God] works all things after the counsel of His will." Genesis 50:20 - "As for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good in order to bring about this present result...." (If the evil that Joseph's brothers committed against him was meant by God for good, how can we escape the conclusion that God in some sense ordained it to happen?) Deuteronomy 2:30 - "But Sihon king of Heshbon was not willing for us to pass through his land; for the Lord your God hardened his spirit and made his heart obstinate, in order to deliver him into your hand, as he is today." Judges 9:23 - "Then God sent an evil spirit between Abimilech and the men of Shechem; and the men of Shechem dealt treacherously with Abimilech." 1 Samuel 16:14 - "Now the Spirit of the Lord departed from Saul, and an evil spirit from the Lord terrorized him." (See also 1 Samuel 18:10-11, which gives an example of how this provoked an evil reaction from Saul. Although the fact that God sent the evil spirit does not necessarily prove that Saul's evil reaction was actually ordained by God, it does show that it was at least in some sense intentionally provoked by God.) 2 Samuel 24:1 - "Now again the anger of the Lord burned against Israel, and it incited David against them to say, 'Go, number Israel and Judah.'"
