Inspiration
This verse highlights the superiority of Jesus over the angels. It states that Jesus is God's Son and that through Him, God created the universe. Jesus is not just a messenger sent by God, but He is the incarnate God, the source of all life and the one by whom all things were made. It emphasizes the importance of Jesus as our Lord and savior and the fact that He is above all other beings. 
During the time of the writing of Hebrews, society was consumed with a dangerous and ungodly fascination with angels, and this obsession has continued to affect our world to this day. This is why a substantial portion of Hebrews aims to expose this error and establish Christ as the rightful heir of everything - through whom the universe was created.
It can be seen from Psalm 45 that the heavenly throne of Jesus has been established. We are hereby proclaimed the eternal sovereignty of Jesus. In the hands of Jesus, lies the unique crown of righteousness, and in the future, when Christ is all in all, the eternal kingdom will be established.
Prayer
Dear Heavenly Father, I thank You for the truth that Jesus is Your son and the creator of the universe. I confess that I believe in His superiority over the angels and I trust in Him as my Lord and savior. I am grateful for the fact that through Him, all things were made and that He is the source of all life and goodness. I pray that my faith in Jesus continues to grow stronger and that I may live a life that honors Him as the Son of God and the Creator of all things. Help me to always keep in mind that He is above all other beings and that He is the one true God. 
In Jesus's name I pray. Amen.
