And the devil said to Him, “All this authority I will give You, and their glory; for this has been delivered to me, and I give it to whomever I wish. “Therefore, if You will worship before me, all will be Yours.” (Luk 4:6-7 NKJ)
You were in Eden, the garden of God; Every precious stone was your covering: The sardius, topaz, and diamond, Beryl, onyx, and jasper, Sapphire, turquoise, and emerald with gold. (Eze 28:13 NKJ)
The Garden of Eden was a beautiful place. Looking at Revelation 21, where we see the garden restored, God was the temple and worship was a fundamental aspect of man’s existence. According to Ezekiel 28, Lucifer was in the garden, possibly involved in the making music for mankind to worship God. His desire, however, was to be worshiped rather than to worship.
The Devil (Lucifer) craves worship; we cannot give it to him, all worship goes to God. Those who follow him in darkness, the murderers, terrorists, and ISIS seek attention; they strive to steal our freedom and hold us captive to fear; we cannot let them.
