I think you have to believe in a supreme being, not necessarily the Christian understanding of God, it could be Allah, or the flying spaghetti monster as long as you accept there is a divine force of some kind
If they actually worship lucifer, then I believe the revelation that the god of the freemasons is lucifer doesn't get revealed to the initiates until the later degrees - majority of masons never pass the 3rd master mason degree
From my study of the degrees they run through performances/rituals of the story of Hiram Abiff (builder of King Solomons temple) and then learn hidden lessons from the story. These hidden lessons are highly secret to the masons - the "ineffable" or unspeakable degrees
Meditation is part of masonic learning. I believe they have some kind of mystical activities similar to mystical kabbalah, path of the golden dawn and other occult groups based on many similarities in the symbolisms and themes. I think the meditation teaching synchronises the left/right hemispheres of the brain and perhaps enables some kind of abilities or feelings that are not usually experienced
Looking at these other groups, they practice rituals, perhaps try to commune with spirits - or maybe the spirits are just aspects of the human psyche and its just a form of mental conditioning and nothing "supernatural"
Speak to any muslim, they will tell you the power to control the jinn lies beneath kings solomon temple.. I've not been able to draw and conclusive conclusions yet on if this is just ancient mumbo jumbo, or something more - but for sure the masons are all about king solomons temple. The temple is actually often said to represent the human body. It also traces back to the initiates of Isis in ancient egypt.
What we do know, is the masons are everywhere in senior positions, they are sworn to never report the crimes of another mason and this alone is enough to be a concern when you think about how many judges/police are masons
