So if you admit that He, THE Word, created all things, then what does Gen 1:1 say?
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
So God is the WORD and the WORD became flesh, was incarnated into Jesus Christ. How can you not see this? The order establishes WHO Jesus is, and from there on, defaults to that position. John 1 establishes the precedent of WHO Jesus is.
So as you quote Phil 2:6 and 8, do you now agree that Jesus is God, or do you still not see it?
Where else would God incarnate stand if not in the highest place?
Yes Jesus the Messiah has a God, it is the WORD incarnated in Him, which is also the Father. Do you not accept Is 9:6 (NIV)? You will note that in that verse He IS all these things, including Everlasting Father, Mighty GOD, Prince of Peace? Do you not see that a son/prince is ALSO a Father/God?
Now as you accept John 1:3, what about John 1:18?
