This is a really really good question, one which has plagued seekers since the beginning of time. I think the question you are really asking is "why is there evil in the world" and the closely related question: "Why do bad things happen to good people".

This is an extremely complicated answer, and I don't think I can do it justice here on Wiki How. I would recommend reading the C.S. Lewis book "The Problem of Pain" which answeres your question about Lucifer specifically and more generally why there is bad stuff that happens in the world.

One final thought, from someone that has thought and prayed about this question quite a bit (and stolen a bit from the C.S. Lewis book). When God created us, he wanted a family. He could have created robot beings that walk around saying "I love you, I love you". But is that really love? We must be able to make the choice to say "I love you", and therefore must have to make a choice.
