Satan has control over the earth (the house), but Jesus defeats Satan with his earthly ministry (tying Satan up).

Readers would likely recognize this as reminiscent of the temptation to false worship ...

But God abrogates what Satan casts in, and then God puts His verses in proper order, for God is all-knowing and wise.' [Q.22:52] So God drove out the sadness from His prophet and gave him security against what he feared.
In the Book of Moses, Cain is said to have "loved Satan more than God" [175] and conspired with Satan to kill Abel. It was through this pact that Cain became a Master Mahan. [176] The Book of Moses also says that Moses was tempted by Satan before calling upon the name of the "Only Begotten", which caused Satan to depart.
