Hello Mike, I’ve been struggling with seeing the ‘IS’ of the below verses.

Rev 20:1  And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand.
Rev 20:2  And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years,

Rev 20:3 And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season. Seems like what I fiind at your site in this regard speaks on the Will BE of those verses. You are a great help. D____

Hi D____,
It is good to hear that the Lord has been opening your eyes to so many of the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, and at the same time blessing you physically. There certainly ought to be a joy and a peace that comes with becoming aware that it is God who is actually in control of all things, both good and evil. If we really believe than then we should be aware that when our brother slaps us on our cheek, that it was actually God who sent an evil spirit to cause that brother to do what he did to us to show us what we are. God of course, already knows, but He wants us to see himself within us, and if He is not yet there, then He also wants us to become aware of what is yet lacking. This cannot be accomplished without all of us experiencing our own spiritual ‘millennium.’
Yes, you are exactly right the ‘loosing of Satan’ are words out of the mouth of God, and therefore to be lived by us. Like all of God’s Words they “never pass away, and are, were and will be.” Job is each of us, he is not just an historical figure. We all “shall live by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God.” The apostles were living their millennium the whole time “the bridegroom was with them:”

Mat 9:15  And Jesus said unto them, Can the children of the bridechamber mourn, as long as the bridegroom is with them? but the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken from them, and then shall they fast.

“Put up again thy sword… [ and] resist not evil” are not commandments that have any appeal to our flesh. Obedience to those commands actually require supernatural assistance. They actually require “Christ in you.”
You have hit the nail on the head when is comes to applying the principle of who Christ is. He and His Word are, were and will be. What that means as it relates to the first Adam within each of us, is that on a daily basis, “He must increase and I must decrease.” Those are the words of John the baptist, as the representative of our lives lived under the law.

Joh 3:28  Ye yourselves bear me witness, that I said, I am not the Christ, but that I am sent before him.
Joh 3:29  He that hath the bride is the bridegroom: but the friend of the bridegroom, which standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth greatly because of the bridegroom’s voice: this my joy therefore is fulfilled.
Joh 3:30  He must increase, but I must decrease.

This is just another way of saying “I die daily.” But as we die daily we also become less and less of an obstacle to spiritual growth, and the struggle over our flesh becomes less and less of a struggle.
If, as you say you are not, at this time having to struggle against your flesh so much, then get prepared for wrestling with powers and principalities in the heavens. That is what was going on when you “almost came to blows” with your associate. I, of course, know nothing of the details of that confrontation, but what I do know it that it was all under and because of what God was working in you. Look at and consider these verses of God’s Word:

Joh 12:30  Jesus answered and said, This voice came not because of me, but for your sakes.
Rom 11:28  As concerning the gospel, they [ your fellow “seed of Abraham”] are enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, [ they are] beloved for the fathers’ sakes.
1Co 4:6  And these things, brethren, I have in a figure transferred to myself and to Apollos for your sakes; that ye might learn in us not to think [ of men] above that which is written, that no one of you be puffed up for one against another.

2Co 8:9  For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.

It all comes down to this realization:

2Co 4:15  For all things are for your sakes, that the abundant grace might through the thanksgiving of many redound to the glory of God.

“All things” means the good and the evil “are for your sakes.” The Greek for “for your sakes” is ‘dia humas,’ or “through you.” Everything God does is ours and is done through us.

1Co 3:22  Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all are yours;
1Co 3:23  And ye are Christ’s; and Christ is God’s.

God is working all of His work “in Christ.” That includes life and death, things present, or things to come. It is all “of God and in Christ.”
According to Christ all men must “live by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God, so that would include the past also, and sure enough that is exactly what Christ taught. In Mat 24 Christ taught “this generation” which reads about the abomination of desolation, will not pass away until all these things are fulfilled:

Mat 23:34  Wherefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: and [ some] of them ye shall kill and crucify; and [ some] of them shall ye scourge in your synagogues, and persecute [ them] from city to city:
Mat 23:35  That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel unto the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias, whom ye slew between the temple and the altar.
Mat 23:36  Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this generation.
Mat 23:37  O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, [ thou] that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under [ her] wings, and ye would not!
Mat 23:38  Behold, your house is left unto you desolate.
Mat 23:39  For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed [ is] he that cometh in the name of the Lord.

“Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord” is the same as saying that the man of sin is not removed until he is revealed:

2Th 2:8  And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:

But like every  other word of God, we must remember that is, was and will be is a life- long process which requires a lifetime. If Christ made this statement, who are we to think we will ever be perfected in this life:

Luk 13:32  And he said unto them, Go ye, and tell that fox, Behold, I cast out devils, and I do cures to day and to morrow, and the third day I shall be perfected.

“The third day” is Bible- speak for resurrection. Perfection comes only with resurrection, and even then it must be the first resurrection. All who come up in the second resurrection will still have to come to know Christ and have what needs to be burned out, removed.
Christ was not perfected until resurrection simply because he was in a body of sinful flesh with all the pulls of our sinful flesh. He dreaded the ordeal of the cross and sweat blood over that trial and “an angel came and strengthened him.” The same thing happened when He was tempted in the wilderness. Christ’s temptations were real. Don’t allow anyone to ever tell you otherwise.

Heb 4:15  For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.

“Without sin” does not mean that Christ had a plastic experience that wasn’t really like ours. It was exactly like ours; Christ simply overcame every time without fail, whereas we fail every time without fail. Only Him living in us will ever give us dominion over sin in our lives.
If Christ really was “tempted like as we are…” what then does this verse tell us about Christ’s flesh?

Jas 1:14  But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.
Jas 1:15  Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.

Obviously the sin that is brought for when lust is conceived is  connected with actions, which result from the sin of having a lustful mind. What this tells us is that Christ’s flesh and blood, just like ours was “shapen in iniquity and conceived in sin,” but did not act upon what it was.
Why are we told that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God? Here is the answer:

1Co 15:50  Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.

With all of this in mind let me try to answer your question about the IS application of Satan being released to destroy our flesh. You ask:
I don’t want to fear the recurring loosing of Satan (if that is accurate) but if it is ‘IS’, then is ‘IS’ always for me or is it ‘IS’ at its appointed time in me so that at some point, there is no more loosing of Satan while I am in this physical body?  Or would the loosing not be completed  until death/ conversion or the return of our Lord Jesus Christ?

The answer to that question is contained in this verse:

Psa 139:16  Thine eyes did see mine unformed substance; And in thy book they were all written, Even the days that were ordained for me, When as yet there was none of them.

What God has ordained for you is what will be done. But the scriptures are written for our admonition and our exhortation. With that in mind read the stories of both Job and King David. Read the story of Joseph’s brothers and read what happened to the apostle Peter. All of these men are types of you and me, and they all received God’s wrath on “all of their ungodlinesses and unrighteousnesses” in direct proportion to their need for that loving scourging that comes on “every son whom He receives.” There is not one verse of scripture which indicates that God’s wrath serves only to harden hearts. All hearts are hardened by God, and Pharaoh’s hardened heart was not hardened for the sake of having God’s wrath poured out on him, it was hardened for the same reason that the hearts of the whole world are hardened. It was for our benefit, and in the long run for Pharaoh’s benefit also:

Heb 12:6  For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, And scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.
Rev 15:8  And the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God, and from his power; and no man was able to enter into the temple, till the seven plagues of the seven angels were fulfilled.

These are “word written therein” and they are “the sayings of the prophecy of this book,” which we are all exhorted to “keep.”

 Rev 1:3  Blessed [ is] he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand.
Rev 22:7  Behold, I come quickly: blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this book.

There really is no way around the fact that we will “live by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God.”

Mat 4:4  But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.

So rest assured that the loosing of Satan will be in direct proportion to the need. I was personally in need for the first 50 years of my life. I pray it is not so long for you, but whenever that day comes it is a wonderful day when you are literally nauseated by the very thought of being so foolish and weak as you once were, and you realize that with the Lord’s help, you will never go back to that “vomit” or to that “wallow in the mire.”
We actually do get to the point that the struggles against the flesh seem insignificant in comparison to the doctrinal struggles in the heavens of our minds and hearts. Somewhere along the line we come to the point that we can say with Paul:

2Ti 4:6  For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand.
2Ti 4:7  I have fought a good fight, I have finished [ my] course, I have kept the faith:
2Ti 4:8  Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.

Lord hasten that day for us all! I hope this is of some help.
 
Your brother in Christ,
Mike
