Satan is not everywhere but his demons are thats how tarat cards,talking to the dead, etc. works. demons have the ability to see things that have happened thats how they trick people. the demons do Satan's work too but believe me Satan can do a lot to hurt people and when i hear about more people being deceived by him it is very sad.

1 Peter 5:8-9
Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that your brothers throughout the world are undergoing the same kind of sufferings.
Satan prowls around...so he isn't omnipresent. He is the tempter. However, temptation can come from another source. Read what James says:
James 1:13-15
13 When tempted, no one should say, "God is tempting me." For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone; 14 but each one is tempted when, by his own evil desire, he is dragged away and enticed. 15 Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death.
We have our own evil desire to contend with in temptation as well. And, Satan has a whole host of demons to help him.

Satan can only be in one place at at time. But he has an army of demons that are working for him. When he was thrown out of heaven he took one third of the angels with him who later became demons. There are thousands of them that are at work tempting Christians to sin.

Satan is only one, and can't be every where, but he has his demons watching over us, and they help to tempt us. Also when we sin Satan is up in heaven telling God what we have done wrong. That is why it is so important not to let him have a foothold in our lives.

Satan is everywhere.
However, he doesn't tempt you to lie. You do that on your own.
Mankind has a sinful nature. We naturally seek protection from authority that can harm us. So we do anything to avoid being "caught" doing wrong, including more wrong (lying).

one spot, satan is an angel, the angel of light. satan and one third of the angels in heaven were cast down. there are many wicked powers on earth , demons and all kinds of dark forces, we are also sinners in the flesh so we cant always blame the devil or demons sometimes its just our sinful nature, that is why we need a savior friend and that is jesus christ, wont you accept the forgiveness offered in him today.

He's hanging out on Y!A, asking stupid questions, giving sarcastic replies.
His minor demons take over the actual legwork of running around and tempting people.
