Matthew 18:18. “Truly I say to you, whatever you bind on earth shall have been bound in heaven; and whatever you loose on earth shall have been loosed in heaven.” Satan must be bound on earth so that he will have been bound in heaven. Then only can he be bound for a thousand years at the return of Jesus.

Revelation 12:3-5. Then another sign appeared in heaven: and behold, a great red dragon having seven heads and ten horns, and on his heads were seven diadems. And his tail swept away a third of the stars of heaven and threw them to the earth. And the dragon stood before the woman who was about to give birth, so that when she gave birth he might devour her child. And she gave birth to a son, a male child, who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron; and her child was caught up to God and to His throne. Satan, the great red dragon, waits to devour the child of the woman as soon as he is born. However, the male child is composed of those who have bound him on earth. Thus Satan cannot touch this child and he is caught up immediately to heaven. God now has what He desired from the time of man’s creation, a representative from the human race who has overcome Satan and stood in the victory that Jesus obtained through His sacrificial death and victorious resurrection. Now God directs Michael the archangel and his angels to cast Satan and his angels out of heaven. Satan, the accuser, is cast down to the earth where he gives his power and authority to the beast and the false prophet and the great tribulation of three and a half years begins.

Revelation 11:15. Then the seventh angel sounded; and there were loud voices in heaven, saying, “The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of His Christ; and He will reign forever and ever.” At the sound of the seventh trumpet the great tribulation is instantly at its end and the feet of Jesus stand once again on the Mount of Olives.

Daniel 2:34-35. “You continued looking until a stone was cut out without hands, and it struck the statue on its feet of iron and clay and crushed them. “Then the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver and the gold were crushed all at the same time and became like chaff from the summer threshing floors; and the wind carried them away so that not a trace of them was found. But the stone that struck the statue became a great mountain and filled the whole earth. The stone that strikes the statue of Gentile authority is Christ with those members of His body who overcame Satan during their time on earth. This enlarged stone becomes a great mountain that establishes God’s authority forever throughout the whole earth. These ones rule with Jesus during the thousand years.

Isaiah 11:9. They will not hurt or destroy in all My holy mountain, For the earth will be full of the knowledge of the Lord As the waters cover the sea. When Jesus returns Satan is bound for a thousand years. Violence is no longer known. Peace is enjoyed on the earth by mankind and all living creatures.

Romans 8:19-21. For the anxious longing of the creation waits eagerly for the revealing of the sons of God. For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of Him who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself also will be set free from its slavery to corruption into the freedom of the glory of the children of God. All living things were forced to share the dominion of Satan with fallen mankind. When Jesus, with His overcoming saints establishes control over the whole earth, all creatures are freed to live together in peace and tranquility without the desire to devour one another.

Matthew 6:10. ‘Your kingdom come. Your will be done, On earth as it is in heaven’. Now is this prayer that Jesus gave to His disciples fulfilled. God’s will is being performed on earth just as it is in heaven.

Psalms 24:1. The earth is the Lord’s, and all it contains, The world, and those who dwell in it. The world and all who dwell in it are now returned to their rightful owner, Jesus.
