When Lucifer was created, he was described as the most beautiful angel, adorned with precious stones. Did he lose this body after the fall?
Ezekiel 28:12 - 17
ESV - 12 Son of man, raise a lamentation over the king of Tyre, and say to him, Thus says the Lord God : "You were the signet of perfection, full of wisdom and perfect in beauty. 13 You were in Eden, the garden of God; every precious stone was your covering, sardius, topaz, and diamond, beryl, onyx, and jasper, sapphire, emerald, and carbuncle; and crafted in gold were your settings and your engravings. On the day that you were created they were prepared.

2 Corinthians 11:14 indicates that, in order to promote his evil purposes, Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. This indicates to me that Satan's appearance was indeed negatively changed as a result of his fall from heaven. (If that were not the case, he would have no need to disguise himself.)

First, God is Spirit, we worship Him in spirit and in truth. Angels are spirits. In the beginning, Satan, Lucifer, Abaddan, the Devil by whatever name you call him, he was the highest angelic being. I will call him the speaker of the angel group. As such, he is at the front, nearest the throne, in the center! We have a description of God's throne in Ezekiel chapter one. It is absolutely gorgeous. Bathed in rainbow colors. It streams light all around, especially in the front and center. Lucifer was right there! Around the throne, other angels also, are bathed in the glory of God's presence. Lucifer was given choice, as are all God's creatures. He chose to rebel. He resigned his high position. He was demoted go the prince of the world. He still is Today. Be very aware, he is anything and everything but the beautiful being he was created! He is the chief executive officer of the world system. He wears the very finest merino wool suits. (Or any thing that you admire) His tongue is bright silver! He wears seduction as a crown! He parades as your hearts desire! Yikes, by the time you realize he IS a Venus fly trap --- it can be too late! Mayhem is His Name! Death for eternity is his Game! Just stand on the word and walk with our faithful witnesses. Read Hebrews chapter eleven. Or read the life of Saul/Paul of Tarsus.
