The temptation by evil is not a plan of God but a plan of Evil. So it could be an attempt to physically eliminate or weaken Jesus, especially when Jesus was physically weak after 40 days of fasting, so that the plan of God Almighty about Jesus is nip in the bud itself. Knowing the plan of evil, Jesus willingly (bodily) climbed to the pinnacle of temple when asked by evil so as to win over evil.
