(Ephesians 1:8-12) This he caused to abound toward us in all wisdom and good sense, 9 in that he made known to us the sacred secret of his will. It is according to his good pleasure which he purposed in himself 10 for an administration at the full limit of the appointed times, namely, to gather all things together again in the Christ, the things in the heavens and the things on the earth. [Yes,] in him, 11 in union with whom we were also assigned as heirs, in that we were foreordained according to the purpose of him who operates all things according to the way his will counsels, 12 that we should serve for the praise of his glory, we who have been first to hope in the Christ.
(Ephesians 3:8-13) To me, a man less than the least of all holy ones, this undeserved kindness was given, that I should declare to the nations the good news about the unfathomable riches of the Christ 9 and should make men see how the sacred secret is administered which has from the indefinite past been hidden in God, who created all things. 10 [This was] to the end that now to the governments and the authorities in the heavenly places there might be made known through the congregation the greatly diversified wisdom of God, 11 according to the eternal purpose that he formed in connection with the Christ, Jesus our Lord, 12 by means of whom we have this freeness of speech and an approach with confidence through our faith in him. 13 Wherefore I ask YOU not to give up on account of these tribulations of mine in YOUR behalf, for these mean glory for YOU.
I put this out there, because those “governments” are obviously God’s own angels in that capacity God alone comprehends, that they take part in, but we see God is also giving witness to these other “governments” of the spirit world:
(Ephesians 6:11-13) Put on the complete suit of armor from God that YOU may be able to stand firm against the machinations of the Devil; 12 because we have a wrestling, not against blood and flesh, but against the governments, against the authorities, against the world rulers of this darkness, against the wicked spirit forces in the heavenly places. 13 On this account take up the complete suit of armor from God, that YOU may be able to resist in the wicked day and, after YOU have done all things thoroughly, to stand firm.
So these must be given the witness, just as Pharaoh typified a statement God is also making to Satan and his own themselves:
(Exodus 9:14-17) For at this time I am sending all my blows against your heart and upon your servants and your people, to the end that you may know that there is none like me in all the earth. 15 For by now I could have thrust my hand out that I might strike you and your people with pestilence and that you might be effaced from the earth. 16 But, in fact, for this cause I have kept you in existence, for the sake of showing you my power and in order to have my name declared in all the earth. 17 Are you still behaving haughtily against my people in not sending them away?

[Part 2/ 5]
Well there are a number of ways we can ascertain the concept of Satan’s rulership, and why God will replace that depth with his original purpose, by a “new” means to do it, and that’s shown in the Ephesians “administration” of that “eternal purpose”, in that these “governments” of spirit power are hinted at in both the righteous angels who have “desired to peer into these things” being shown God’s wisdom and power in depth, as well as those demons being defeated by this superior intellectual infinite One, and ALL the aids he uses in other beings through Jesus Christ for the Kingdom, and angels like Gabriel well testified in his missions on earth in Daniel, Luke, etc, and in the Revelation were symbolic classes of angelic power are shown in the 4 living creatures apparently, but also individual angels through out that book, with the trumpets, woes, and plagues in the bowls.
Now if God uses these creatures, we know Satan is doing likewise in much deeper ways than human can understand.
Eph6:12 shows these as “governments”, “authorities” and “powers”, and in that demon realm these things are very deep and way beyond human, yet we get the idea they have a full earthly rulership from “the heavenly places”.
So as well, we see in Daniel the “Prince of Persia”, and the “prince of Greece” as a pattern which Satan uses to rule whole nations for generations. We also see Satan himself tempting Jesus with the authority of “all these kingdoms and their glory” and that it was “delivered unto me” and that “to whomever I wish I give it” as Satan tempted Jesus for the act of worship to receive these things, and Jesus refuted Satan on the grounds that “it is written, Jehovah God alone is to be worshipped”, “go away Satan”.
So Jesus did not refute the fact that Satan has these things to offer any man, as he did Jesus, but worship is required in that “gift”, which Jesus refused.
So no doubt Jehovah’s “myriads” must have great purpose in those “powerful ones” of Joel 3:9, his heavenly armies of angels. We can rightly imagine they know much depth and detail, and have responsibilities in this creation, as Jesus in the chief instrument of God’s creative power was also employed, we can be relatively certain angels know and were also employed in much of the creation, over the various power systems that make up even a butterfly’s lineage and existence, the soil, the universal powers of stars and wave power, and imagine all the true depth that must actually be in these things which Paul said man’s knowledge even in our depth, is “the elementary things of the world”.
So likewise we know Satan has even been allowed to affect the animal nature and future temporarily, but under Jesus and his angels and 144000, these in fact will be restored, and also await the “revealing of the children of God”, to be “freed from enslavement to corruption” as man’s evil ways and impurities in many aspects, affect all creation, even animals are suffering “together in pain and groaning” across the creation from animals to man, these are going through premature demise, and are also in Satan’s quest of destruction to all life at some point, but God will cut short those days.
[Part 3/ 5]
We see the pattern that angels and demons are and have been highly operative on this entire creation, and that no doubt will continue as Jehovah eventually replaces them neutralized into abyss, for the final replacement of that evil spirit, even in “the air” the “spirit that now operates in the sons of disobedience”.
Also we saw with the swine herd, even tormenting animals was a request of these evil demons, but they needed direct permission to enter the herd, and the morbid fascination of that “legion” was to commit an animal suicide by plunging off the cliff. These are truly weird creatures, these fallen angels, addicts, twisted, out of control of their previous righteous state, as Jesus said Satan did not “stand fast in the truth”, and they like him are liars and “manslayers” as well, so every twisted freak of nature, such as sexual psychopaths, and other sociopaths have an origin with these demons, man is not separate from that influence but by divine protection and choosing.
Even the animal creation will be brought into peace when Jesus spirit takes over the places inhabited currently by temp demon powers. As in Isaiah 11. Plus we can realize that even in the great earthly creation, Eden was a place set aside, and in that place a garden was further set aside, so who knows the true powers that were possible in that Edenic region, and how it must have been different even from the grand land that Adam was banished into, even though that land also had great creations.
Just as Jesus glowed like the sun and more glorious, perfect man is a completely different power and life form, although human like us as Jesus and Adam were, and Jesus maintained, the perfect man, like the perfect Eden, has powers we cannot imagine, yet Jesus has given us all, some as eye-witnesses, a “foregleam” of what perfection is, he was a conduit of glowing holy spirit, greater than even Moses face which only retained a small afterglow of his seeing a glimpse of the back of that angel, who very well was probably Michael, God’s personal messenger, or angel meaning, Isa63:9, and his judgment “sword” Isa27:1.
We have not seen anything yet!
====
But the greatest pattern affirming Satan’s intellectual engineering of human systems, in tangent with fallen man, is the fact that the symbolic “original serpent”, the dragon Satan the Devil has 7 heads, with the same characteristics as the 7 heads on the 2 wildbeasts, the one “from the sea”, and the one with FULL blasphemous names, the scarlet wildbeast (Rev17:3; 17:12-16), recognized as the 8th King as well, the final union of human nations in Satan’s rebellious rulership.
The spiritually completed 7 heads, shows a complete reflection of Satan’s “thinking” and intellectual design into that human wildbeast system, led by demons Rev16:13-16, and obviously aided by these demon principalities, governments and authority and power from that realm, though limited, very deep and powerful.
[Part 4/ 5]
We also see noted Satan as “god of this system of things” and “power of the wicked one” which the world is lying in, and world ruler noted by Jesus. Ezekiel also notes Satan’s Cherubic anointing on the “mountain of God”, so he too must have aids in his overall plan and objective, who like him, by human aid and agreement since Adam, have usurped power roles previously held by righteous angels, who may have very well become demonic. As we see Michael on 3 occasions is noted in direct roles of thwarting Satan’s abuses of power, with greater power as in Gabriel’s message to Daniel, and the protection of Moses’ body, and finally the full ouster from heaven at the Kingdom birth, Rev6, and Rev12, as Satan’s “granted” horses ride after Jesus white horse to bring “woe to the earth, for the Devil has come down to you, with great anger, knowing he has a short period of time”. Finally, even Satan knows his fate is sealed and irreversible, but he will not relinquish power, until Jesus smashes his angelic brains, with all his demons as well.
But we see Jehovah will bring the human family to perfection to finally completely answer the Devil’s lying charges against all, from God to his Son, down into the human family.
I think God’s angels have great responsibility to also keep demon power in check, as well as universal things we are not capable of understanding in great depth, but we get the idea, both sides have great power, but Jesus has far more, and his Father is eternal in that regard.
Very interesting thinking about these things, and knowing for anything Satan can do, there is more power against him, for him in union with us, is greater than him in union with the world. Many times over, yet Jehovah gives Satan enough power to carry his controversy to even Jesus murder, so Satan is given much authority in this temporary aspect of his rebellion.
Eventually all that will be replaced by the righteous power system and beings of “Jerusalem Above, and “she” is our mother”, and “New Jerusalem” coming down out of heaven in that symbolic meaning of complete earthly authority for all mankind and creation’s benefit, from that “heavenly Jerusalem”, the “City of God” Heavenly Zion’s ruling capital.
Very thought provoking that God cannot be thwarted in this grand purpose as stated there throughout the bible, and in these Ephesians scriptures, Revelation, Daniel, and all the prophets who point to Jesus Christ as that power “seed” of God’s “woman”, the heavenly perfect divine family and all their powers.
It really will be nice, when that righteous power is given unlimited sway and authority over earth, to replace Satan’s limited and lie powered rebellious powers currently in authority through the “air” and “heavenly places”; abyssed, and eventually annihilated to the full crushing of the head from which this evil originated. Gen3:15. Number24:17; Isa27:1; Isa24:21
(Isaiah 24:21-23) And it must occur in that day that Jehovah will turn his attention upon the army of the height in the height, and upon the kings of the ground upon the ground. 22 And they will certainly be gathered with a gathering as of prisoners into the pit, and be shut up in the dungeon; and after an abundance of days they will be given attention. 23 And the full moon has become abashed, and the glowing [sun] has become ashamed, for Jehovah of armies has become king in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem and in front of his elderly men (24elders;144000) with glory.
[Part 5/ 5]
(Isaiah 27:1) In that day Jehovah, with his hard and great and strong sword, will turn his attention to Leviathan, the gliding serpent, even to Leviathan, the crooked serpent, and he will certainly kill the sea monster that is in the sea.
(Numbers 24:17) I shall see him, but not now; I shall behold him, but not near. A star will certainly step forth out of Jacob, And a scepter will indeed rise out of Israel. And he will certainly break apart the temples of Moab’s [head] And the cranium of all the sons of tumult of war.
(Genesis 3:15) And I shall put enmity between you and the woman and between your seed and her seed. He will bruise you in the head and you will bruise him in the heel.”
(Revelation 22:3) And no more will there be any curse.. . .
