Angels: Ministering Spirits

I'd say that each angelic order and the angels therein are in authority over a different aspect of creation. Starting with the lowest first the First Heaven...

Angels: individual human beings
Archangels: ethnic groups or nations
Principalities: nation states

Now, just through prayerful speculation the remainder of the spheres could be something like this... the Second Heaven

Powers: planets
Dominions: Solar Systems
Authorities: Galaxies

The Third Heaven...

Seraphim: Heavenly worship
Cherubim: Heavenly Guardians/Worship Leading
Thrones: Heavenly Council (24 Elders of Heaven)

Satan, or Lucifer, was one of the Cherubim (Ezekiel 28:14).

How did you arrive at this conclusion?
