Why do angels worship the Messiah?

Angels worship the Messiah due to His divine nature and the authority He holds as the Creator of all things. The command for angels to worship Him is rooted in their recognition of His holiness and majesty. As 'ministering spirits' (Hebrews 1:14), they serve His purpose and reflect His glory, which is especially evident in their worship at significant moments, such as His birth (Luke 2:13-14) and during His ministry on earth. This worship illustrates their acknowledgement of His sovereignty and their position in relation to Him.
