Lucifer, the Unworthy Ruler.

                                                 Bb.Lucifer.jpg

The third heaven is the first realm in God`s great kingdom to be populated. God created the angelic beings and they resided in the third heaven. The most beautiful and powerful angel was Lucifer. He was given authority as a king over a whole order of angels.  He had a very special position near God. He was the anointed cherub, the son of the morning that led the worship in heaven.

Lucifer, ruler in the 3rd heaven.

`You were the anointed cherub who covers; I established you; you were on the holy mountain of God; you walked back and forth in the midst of fiery stones. You were perfect in all your ways from the day you were created.` (Ez. 28: 14)

`You were the seal of perfection, full of wisdom and perfect in beauty....every precious stone was your covering....The workmanship of your timbrels and pipes was prepared for you on the day you were created.` (Isa. 14: 12 & 13)

These descriptions far transcend any earthly king and by the law of double reference reveal the original power and beauty of this greatest angel ever created by God. However Lucifer aspired to ascend into the highest heaven, `the sides of the north,` (hidden quarters), the abode of the eternal God.

`..you have said in your heart; “I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God, I will also sit on the mount of the congregation on the farthest sides of the north; I will ascend above the heights of the clouds, I will be like the Most High.”` (Isa. 14: 13 & 14)

Lucifer, cast down to the Universal realm.

So by divine decree, because of his pride, Lucifer was cast out of the third heaven, being found unworthy to rule there.  

`By the abundance of your trading you became filled with violence within and you sinned; therefore I cast you as a profane thing out of the mountain of God;....` (Ez. 28: 16)

Lucifer then usurped the area of Principalities and Powers in the universal realm and operates and rules there as the Prince of the Power of the air. (Eph. 2: 2)

Satan holds sway over the World.

Having usurped power and authority in the universal realm, Lucifer, now called Satan (& the devil) puts his sights on the earth and deceives man, eventually obtaining sway over the kingdoms of the world.                                                                                                                                                                                                                      

`Again, the devil ...showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. And he said to Him, “All these things I will give you if you fall down and worship me.` (Matt. 4: 8 & 9)

Thus we see from the 3rd heaven through the universal realm and finally on the earth there has been corruption. Rulership is in rebellion against God and the effects are disastrous - pain, suffering, sickness, disease and death. Seemingly incurable.
