hmmm...not exactly sure (if you want to be absolute sure read The Bible or whatever) but I think it's because he was God's brother or something and God decided to create humans and said that he had to love them. but lucifer didn't want to or he was jealous that God loved us more than him so he became evil and was cast out of heaven. (I think the story goes something like that- even though that's just a short summary) ^^

A:It is better we rely on the imaginings of others, than create our own new imaginings about the fall of Lucifer. The Jews of the Apocalyptic period, from 200 BCE to 100 CE could not understand why God had abandoned Israel and allowed evil to rule the world in their time. Such a degree of evil was more than God would ordain and greater than mere humans could cause. It must therefore be the work of a powerful spiritual force. This force would be the fallen angel, Satan, although Jews eventually returned to the earlier post-Exilic belief that Satan is the loyal assistant of God, tasked with testing the righteousness of men.

The Apocalyptic writers studied the Old Testament and proceeded to develop colourful accounts, as in the Book of Enoch. Enoch is taken on an inspection tour of Sheol, the shadowy underworld place of the dead, "the land of destruction, forgetfulness, and silence." During the journey he sees the sons of God in their fallen state and learns that these "angels, the children of heaven, saw and lusted after" the daughters of men.

The Book of Jubilees specified that nine parts of the angels fell while one part remained sinless and loyal to God. Medieval writers later reversed these proportions, so that only one-tenth of the angels fell.

The Book of the Secrets of Enoch (2 Enoch) added to the myth the significant new element that the angels rebelled on account of pride. The key passage is : "And one from out the order of angels, having turned away with the order that was under him, conceived of an impossible thought, to place his throne higher than the clouds above the earth, that he might become equal in rank to any power. And I threw him out from the height with his angels, and he was flying in the air continuously above the bottomless."

God took Lucifer down from heaven, because Lucifer believed that he was better than God, and began rousing trouble.

Lucifer was thrown out of heaven, because he tried to be equal with God, and challenge Gods power.

Lucifer as an entity doesnt figure in the entire of the bible .The word "Son of Dawn aka Lucifer" is an adressing title to the King of Babilon.With other words Lucifer is like saying Sre to a king.
