Isaiah 53 is prophesy and Acts 4:27 refers to the fulfillment of prophecy.
Predestination goes against the nature of God. In 1st Timothy 2 Paul wrote This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. Why, after having predestined not all would be saved, would He desire their salvation? He would not.
God knew His creation would seek the desires of the flesh. It was foreseen and planned for before time began. The only thing God did that could be remotely construed as predestination is making obedience to His commandments or faith in Jesus the only ways man could fellowship with Him.
