When God made Jesus "Lord"
When God raised the man Jesus from the dead, God made him Lord, seating Jesus at His right hand.
Therefore having been exalted to the right hand of God, and having received from the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, He has poured forth this which you both see and hear. For it was not David who ascended into heaven, but he himself says: "The Lord said to my Lord, 'Sit at My right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet.'" Therefore let all the house of Israel know for certain that God has made this Jesus whom you crucified both Lord and Christ." Acts 2:33-36
"You have crowned him with glory and honor, and set him over the works of Your hands. You have put all things in subjection under his feet." For in subjecting all things to him, He left nothing that is not subject to him.
Hebrews 2:7-8
Having made purification of sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on High, having become as much superior to the angels, as he has inherited a more excellent name than them.
Hebrews 1:4
To him who overcomes I will grant to sit with me on my throne, as I also overcame and sat down with my Father on His throne.
Revelation 3:21.
[Jesus] is at the right hand of God, having gone into heaven, after angels and authorities and powers had been subjected to him.
1 Peter 3:22
All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth.
Matthew 28:18
For this reason also, God highly exalted him, and bestowed on Him the name which is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee will bow, of those who are in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and that every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
Philippians 2:9-11
To sit at the right hand of God means one is exercising God's authority. The Lord of heaven and earth has a God and he is exercising the authority of his God. The Father is the God of the Lord.

1 Corinthians 8:6.
For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under His feet. The last enemy that will be abolished is death. For He has put all things in subjection under his feet. But when He says, "All things are put in subjection," it is evident that He is excepted who put all things in subjection to Him. When all things are subjected to him, then the Son himself also will be subjected to the One who subjected all things to him, so that God may be all in all.
1 Corinthians 15:25-28
Therefore let all the house of Israel know for certain that God has made this Jesus whom you crucified both Lord and Christ." Acts 2:33-36
God the Father has entrusted the glorified man Jesus with everything.
