because when we see Him, our only response will rightly BE praise and adoration - not because it is forced, but simply because God is so awesome.

So why did Satan not see God like you describe? He was an angel forced out of heaven, no?
The parameters and consequences of the ability to choose evil are not the same for angels who are not made in God’s image and humans who are thus made. The scripture treats them differently. Angels who sin are lost forever. Men who sin can be saved. There are not (at least in evangelical thought) any unfallen men, beyond the special case of Jesus which was sinless God condensing Himself into the form of a human. There are unfallen angels.
Re: “So why did Satan not see God like you describe? He was an angel forced out of heaven, no?”
An interesting question. For one thing, we are not angelic beings - Satan is, and a very powerful being as well. Why he chose to rebel against God’s Lordship, even though he saw God in His glory, I can’t say. But apparently God gave angels the ability to serve Him or not. Satan chose not to and he was defeated and ultimately thrown out of Heaven, and will also ultimately be thrown into the Lake of Fire mentioned in Revelation.
The difference between Satan’s response and Believers in Christ? I guess I would say that Believers are/will be in Heaven because they freely acknowledged their sin, acknowledged Christ’s death, burial, and resurrection, and acknowledged His Lordship in their lives. They WANT God’s presence in their lives - they not only see God in His glory, but they also see God’ mercy, forgiveness, and love.
