There are many schools of thought on the origin of Satan and demons. Demons are part of God’s creation. They were created as angels of God in heaven. When they rebelled against God, they were cast down to the earth, from where they will be taken to their final destination. They existed before the creation of man.
Demons can be referred to as “fallen angels.” They were removed by God from their beautiful estate, where the Lord intended to keep them for eternity and thrust out of their original habitation, and they descended to the earth and are here even now. Because of this, satan and the demons are illegal occupants of the earth.

Being spirits and without a body, they are always in search of any available body, place, or thing to possess and use against God and man. Their leader, Satan, used the serpent to deceive Adam and Eve and cause them to disobey God; hence, their first achievement on earth was to separate man from his creator, God.
Now the serpent was more subtle than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden? And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden:
But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die. And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil. And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.

Man eventually became an enemy of God just like the devil, but thankfully, God made a way out for man.
And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.
Genesis. 3: 15
For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life
John 3:1
These demons perpetuate evil in the lives of their victims. During the time of Sodom and Gomorrah, satan attacked man. He entered into Sodom and Gomorrah and invaded all the cities using the few people he could deceive to defile many people in the cities. Entering into covenant with them, he defiled them, and made them go after strange flesh.

He also used dreams to defile a good number of people. Anything that takes place in your dream is to be taken very seriously. He possessed the people and used them to despise dominion and speak evil against dignities. Eating or having sex in the dream is not something you should take lightly. The dream sex is actually having sex with an evil spirit or demon. It is not for nothing that they come to have sex with human beings in their dreams. Eating in the dream is another way they covenant with men, using them to defile others and turn men into demons.
When a man has enough demons in him, he can be used by them to defile his fellow men, thereby bringing the demonic kingdom into physical manifestation to oppose God and good things. Since creation, Satan has been trying to inhabit man so he can operate through him on earth, since he requires a body to operate on earth. As a believer, your responsibility is to cast them out and disembody them.
Because of God’s great favor for man, he hated him completely. The aim of the devil was to combine forces with man to fight against God, but he failed when God released his unmerited favor upon man. This explains why God in Heaven prepared a body for Jesus when He sent Him into the world, without which He would not have been able to operate here on earth.
