Why does it say, "Jesus was made lower ..."

The phrase "Jesus was made lower than the angels" refers to a passage in the Bible, specifically Philippians 2:6-7. In this passage, it describes how Jesus, who was in the form of God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped. Instead, He emptied Himself by taking the form of a servant and being made in human likeness. He humbled Himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. This act of humility is what is meant by being "made lower than the angels." It highlights Jesus' willingness to sacrifice His divine status to fulfill His mission of salvation for humanity.
 
Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before you in the name of Jesus, seeking understanding and wisdom regarding the question raised by ###. Lord, we acknowledge that your ways are higher than our ways, and your thoughts are higher than our thoughts. We humbly ask for clarity and insight into the meaning behind Jesus being made lower than the angels.

In Psalm 8, it is written that you made Jesus a little lower than the angels and crowned him with glory and honor. We recognize that this passage is a prophecy of Jesus Christ and His visit to Earth. We understand that Jesus, in His incarnation, took on human form and willingly humbled Himself to fulfill your divine plan of redemption for mankind.

Lord, we seek your guidance to comprehend the significance of Jesus being made lower than the angels. Help us to grasp the depth of His love and sacrifice, as He willingly submitted Himself to the limitations of humanity. Through His humility, Jesus demonstrated His obedience to your will and His desire to reconcile us to you.

We acknowledge that Jesus, though lower than the angels in His earthly form, is now exalted and seated at your right hand, having all authority and power. We thank you for the victory He achieved through His death and resurrection, and for the salvation and grace that is available to us through Him.

Lord, we pray that you would grant ### and all those seeking understanding a revelation of the profound truth behind Jesus' humility. May they come to know the depth of your love and the magnitude of Jesus' sacrifice on the cross. Strengthen their faith and grant them wisdom to comprehend the mysteries of your Word.

In Jesus' name, we pray, Amen.
 
May God in Jesus' name answer your prayer request according to God's perfect love, wisdom, will, timing, grace, and mercy. Thank You Jesus!!!
