Can God effectually cause the mind to be confused, perverted or twisted for His Glory?

Answer:

God can effectually cause a natural evil.  (Ex. 4:11)

God effectually permits sin.  Is 45:7

God cannot effectually cause a good heart to choose evil.
We say rather that God can effectually permit a good heart to choose evil.

God cannot do evil because of His nature.
God is not the one doing the sin/evil.

God's intentions are always for His Glory and our eternal spiritual good/happiness.  Therefore God effectually permits sin for His Glory and our eternal spiritual happiness.

How can God "create" calamity and it not contradict his nature?
