Since Jesus is to reign until all enemies are put under his feet, and the last enemy to be destroyed is death (1 Corinthians 15:25,26) would it not prove that Satan and his hosts would be destroyed before death is destroyed, and that both would be destroyed during the reign of Jesus?
Your conclusion is correct. There is additional detail provided in Revelation 20:7-10 that explain the timing between the 1,000 reign of Christ and the destruction of Satan. “And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison and shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters [...]

In his highly exalted spiritual state endowed with glory, honor and immortality, it [...]
Did God create Satan?
Yes. Originally, as God created him, he was holy, pure, grand of character and of a high order of angelic nature, a "covering cherub" (Ezekiel 28:16). His name was Lucifer, meaning "Day Star."
