Prince of the Powers of the Air
God did not create Satan. God created Lucifer, the highest angel in God’s angelic kingdom. Lucifer was the anointed cherub (Ezekiel 28:14; Isaiah 14:12,13). Lucifer then of his own free will wanted to be God and receive worship as God. Through his pride and vanity, he fell and became Satan. This event caused a catastropic event to the Original earth to throw it into a state of chaos.
Other titles for fallen Lucifer, now Satan are:
- Satan, meaning – the Adversary

- Apollyon – the destroyer
- Beelzebub – the prince of demons
- Belial – the low, abject one
- The Wicked One

- He that hath the power of death

- The Tempter
There are a number of Fallen Angels that rebelled with him: Rev. 12:4,9. These angels along with Satan will be imprisoned in the lake of fire for eternal torment. Lucifer’s Reign – The anointed cherub that covereth. God’s most high priest in the mountain of God. Isaiah 14:12-14; Ezekiel 28:13-17. Lucifer was the highest ranking angel that God created.
