Occult.. it's true power source?BalanceLucifier, Satan, the devil or whatever appellation you choose to use refers to a created being who opposes God but is subject to God. Job 1:6-12
Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also came among them. 7 And the LORD said to Satan, "From where do you come?"
So Satan answered the LORD and said, "From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking back and forth on it."
8 Then the LORD said to Satan, "Have you considered My servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, one who fears God and shuns evil?"
9 So Satan answered the LORD and said, "Does Job fear God for nothing? 10 Have You not made a hedge around him, around his household, and around all that he has on every side? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his possessions have increased in the land. 11 But now, stretch out Your hand and touch all that he has, and he will surely curse You to Your face!"
12 And the LORD said to Satan, "Behold, all that he has is in your power; only do not lay a hand on his person."
So Satan went out from the presence of the LORD.
NKJV
Luke 22:31-32
And the Lord said, "Simon, Simon! Indeed, Satan has asked for you, that he may sift you as wheat. 32 But I have prayed for you, that your faith should not fail; and when you have returned to Me, strengthen your brethren."
NKJV
When Jesus returns to set up the millennial Kingdom of God on earth Satan will be bound effectively removing his influence from all mankind. However, all of creation will continue in perfect balance. At the completion of the millennial rule of Jesus Satan will be released before he is cast into the lake of fire and God creates a new heaven and new earth that will endure for eternity future.
