       Satan, demons, or even unbelievers can never prevent God’s unconditional will and promises from being accomplished. Only conditional things in God’s will can be prevented. Even we as believers can prevent God’s goodness from flowing in our lives through disobedience, through not doing the right things, not making the right choices. Now, God obviously lets certain things happen in our lives and in the world as he chooses, and those things are for, and fit into, his own ultimate plan and glory. So, evil then is allowed by God for the praise of his glory, as uncomfortable as that may be for us to think about. Sin is part of God’s all-encompassing plan, but he is not the author of sin, for then he would not be good. He just created the possibility for evil and sin to exist in his creation. Really, if you stop and think about it, that’s the only way for true freedom to exist. Lucifer (Satan’s name before he fell) originally had freedom. Adam and Eve originally had freedom.
