I believe so.
God could have/can destroy them all. God chooses not to. I summize that since they were once angels who chose to rebel and thus were banished from heaven that God does still love tham like the story of the prodigal son.
As Christians we are to love what God loves so yes we should pray for the fallen.

Satan, demon, fallen angels, evil, unclean, familiar spirits cannot receive redemption. I listed all of the spirits separate, because each one is a different class. Why is this?
Before all of them fell or turned away from God, they were created perfect without flaw. They are not God's Perfect creation. Mankind is God's perfect creation. We are created in His image. Angels, Satan, demons are not created in His image.
Satan is an enemy of God and man. He fell because he did not want to serve mankind. He wants mankind to serve him. Jesus said that Satan was a murderer from the very beginning.
No salvation or redemption for Satan and his demons. ALSO TOO, MANKIND IS GIVEN FREE WILL!!!!! that is another thing that separates us from angels, satan, and demons
Angels, Satan, demons are not given free will.

Tough call.
From the lost book of Enoch, the Watchers are permanently banned from God's presence...Since one of the things they asked was for Enoch to go and speak on their behalf.
They may not be redeemable. The second fall of Angels, led by Lucifer, were beings of energy (spirit), it may NOT be possible for them to change back, their energy might be permanently changed.
There does seem to be a point beyond which there are no longer offers of redemption, and Lucifer and his posse might have crossed over that line.

As he was involved in their creation, he likely felt something two days ago (by their measurement of time) when he delivered God's final declaration of judgment on them That was soon after he was resurrected. I guess until then, they may have had the chance to redeem themselves, but not anymore. Soon they will be chained up for one day, or 1000 years in our time frame, than released for one last chance to test man, before they are destroyed forever.

No. God even hates Satan. It says in the Bible. We are to have no compassion for Satan whatsoever. Nor demons.

Demons are fallen angels, so is Satan. Christ came to redeem human beings, not fallen angels.

God has already judged some and they are waiting for judgment day. Also Satan already knows his end & God doesn't change His mind.
The best think to understand is to do to the demons is to bind them with weights & toss them to the bottom of the sea. Their only purpose is to destroy our children. So do you want to just let them do it? Do you want to forgive Satan for destroying our families? Forgiving him would give him permission do it.
Satan is not for us to forgive. He is for us to resist. Submit to God, resist satan & satan flees.

It would do us no good to love Satan for he has been condenmed to Hell forever. Nothing, even love, will change that.
