Ezek. 28:11-17 and Isaiah 14: 12-15 Gives us a Biblical view of who he is and whats his nature.
Satan is a created angel and in his original state of creation he was very beautiful and powerful. he rebelled with 1/3 of the multitudes of angels.
Satan is not Gods equal!
he's not all knowing
he's not all powerful
he's not present everywere.
His primary goal is to distract or diminish the truth about God. He wants us to doubt the Character of God - Gen. 3: 4-5, Job 1
If your going in the same direction as he is he tends to leave you alone , you pose no threat. you already doubt
He really only opposes you after conversion but the blessings far outweigh anything he can do to you.
Eph. 3:20 says God is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us,

Yes, and yes, he affects everyone. The Bible tells us that he has deceived the whole world. It's time to get right with God if he is influencing you in any way. Sometimes we don't even know it until someone else gets offended. This world is a difficult place to live but Christians can be overcomers. Read Romans 8 on this, and I John 4:4; 5:4-5 and 3:22; 5:14-15. Some favorite verses.

People don't realize how powerfully SATAN has a hold of the world. It's the essence of separation from the creator. It's the attempt to prolong your pain and keep you separate. It's vanity, prestige, revenge, anger, fear in a mirriad of forms, guilt, sensory endulgence of all kinds, and the list goes on. Most people aren't aware of their thoughts and their minds are an unprotected porous sieve that allow all manner of SATAN guided, evil influence to come in. Only scientifically stilled and directed mind with will born from Creator can successfully defeat SATAN - and he doesn't like you trying to stop him, either. If you doubt satan is there, just talk to yourself about the possibility to be like CHRIST, and listen to what he says. No you can't! That's impossible! you'll never do that! Or try to become anything great than you are right now, and you'll get flak. Or if your rich, try giving up your self-importance and listen the voice. Or if your revengeful, try being forgiving. You'll hear voices like '...your going to let that slide?!? Get his a s s !" .....we'll folks , that's SATAN. In your own head, every minute, every day, on sundays in church, all the time, in every situation, every day, every way, unless you confront and change.

Satan is not person, he is a fallen angel who rebelled against Heaven. He never has been human and hates humans because God loves us. He resents humans and tries to bring them away from God.
I think the spirit of Satan affects everyone. Satan rules the earth and this is his realm. If you look around in the world today you do not have to go far to see his work.

SATAN- Is a myth that was introduced to weak minded people. It was passed down from generation to generation to keep people under the watchful eye of the church and other organizations. The phrase SATAN in know way controls my life or habits. I control the good and evil in my life as do others. Why do bad things happen to good people? People are good and bad. People have bad habits and good habits. I don't think a devil sits on one side and an angel on the other side and pulls and tugs at you. Deep down, people are influenced by the action.

Yeah - he plays for the New York Islanders!
As for his actual influence, I guess we'll have to wait until next season to find out...

He's not a person, he's a fallen angel. And he causes all sorts of trouble. He tempts us into sin.
