In the council of heaven as found in Moses 4, the Father explains that Jehovah was the chosen one from the beginning. It’s at this point that Lucifer tries to change the rules of engagement for exaltation. Notice that he (Lucifer) offered no agency in either sense of the word. He offered 1) no freedom of choice and 2) no power to act righteously.
In fact, Lucifer only addressed one aspect of God’s plan, the law that states: no unclean thing can dwell in the presence of God. He overlooked in his haste to formulate a competing plan, the aspect of becoming like God versus simply being with God.
Showing a complete manifestation of pride over intelligence, Lucifer then proposed that he receive the greatest reward of the universe. He chose a zero-sum economic strategy and conditioned that all of God’s glory, which is His power, be given to him. In other words, Lucifer wanted all of the intelligences and all of the spirits (intelligence and element combined) to worship him instead of the Father.
That very concept is absolutely impossible. He wanted to remove the agency of even the basic building blocks of the universe, intelligence and element, and have them obey his very word and to bow down and worship him.
