My response to Femi

Indeed, when the Lord Jesus Christ returns, Satan and his cohorts will be taken out of the scene. His evil influence will be out of sight completely and we shall walk in the fullness of our redemption in Christ (Isaiah 11;8, Micah 4:1-4, 5:2-5). Fullness, not just as it is within our spirits but also in our changed bodies. Sin and its repercussions or effects will be dealt with pertaining all things.
When Jesus shall return again, the sons of God will be made manifest and the whole creation that have been in bondage due to the sin of the first Adam, will be set free (Romans 8:18-24).
There’s indeed so much to be grateful and joyful for as we hope for his second coming.
1. Satan and his influence put away completely.
2. Our bodies redeemed and found in glory.
3. The earth and all there is in creation that was left in bondage; completely restored.
4. We will reign on the earth with our Lord and king Jesus. A reign of truth and glory.
This joy goes hand in hand with our daily commitment to keep running our race, having our eyes fixed on the Lord Jesus.
