We keep asking ourselves that why did God not destroy satan
in the garden of Eden once and for all? or why won’t God destroy
satan today? Well, after serious meditation over and over, this is
what God told me. God wants to show satan that we(humans) are
in control of this universe, that we are kings and priests of this
world. Also, God wants to prove to satan that we can defeat him by
ourselves.
By 'ourselves', I mean God won't get rid of satan by himself
(although he could); but the thing is God has decided to use us to
get rid of satan. I mean think of it. Will your teacher do you
homework for you? God is our teacher and he has given us an
assignment which is to remind the devil that he was already
defeated thousands of years ago; and God has also provided us the
tool(holy spirit) to use in order to get rid of this annoying, toothless
and powerless satan.

Now, here comes the million dollar question. Why is God still
letting us to suffer on earth? First of all, don't look at it as 'suffer'.
God loves his children so much that it is not his will for us to
suffer. So, the right question is "Why is God allowing us to endure
on earth"? Before I answer that, I would like to ask you this
question. If God loves his son(Jesus) so much, why did God let his
son(Jesus) to go through so much pain on the cross? If you can
brainstorm on that question, then you will begin to see that God
lets us go through certain situations for a bigger purpose which
only HE, knows. In the case of Jesus, God allowed him to endure
in human pain so that:

was lost many years before by Adam to satan.

2. Man could regain that awesome relationship(father-son) which
was lost by Adam. Man can now commune in fellowship with the
father.
