May peace be with you, Daisies4me,
My sister, this is NOT Satan's world, it IS God's world that evil is trying to corrupt. Fighting the evil “powers that be” is not aligning ourselves with them, it is opposing the evil they are trying to create. Evil succeeds because good people do not stand against it.
“Not wanting to stand by and watch it happen” means taking action to stop it. It won't end unless people oppose it with courage and dedication. The murdering of children, pushing war, and a huge list of horrible crimes need to be fought, and are being fought by loving and compassionate people who are the army of God in this world. They are earning their places in the world Yeshua spoke about.
Scripture can be used to justify almost any position, but to obey God we must look deeply into our hearts where Christ lives. Our children, and our children's children are depending upon us to make a better world for them to live in, which will not occur unless we act bravely in the defense of good. Let us not let them, or Christ, down.

The 'world' that is now, the human society that lives upon the earth, is ruled over by Satan. Check it out at 2 corinthians 4:4.
also look at 1 John 5:19.
Why did Jesus declare "I am no part of this world" ? Didn't he say that His followers would also be 'no part of this world'?
We are not talking about the planet earth. we are talking about the 'world of mankind', that will again be destroyed, just as it was in the days of Noah.
The world of 'ungodly men' are reflecting the characteristics of their god, Satan. And they will be destroyed with him, too.
