Rapper Kanye West who made a special appearance at Pastor Joel Osteenās Lakewood mega church in Houston bragged about being the greatest artist God ever created.
Reaffirming his dedication to Christianity, Kanye told the crowd that the ādevil stole all the good producers, all the good musicians, all the good artists, all the good designers.ā
āNow, the greatest artist that God has ever exist- uh, created is now working for Him,ā the hip-hop star said, laughing good-naturedly as seen in a viral video.
āI know that God has been calling me for a long time and the Devil has been distracting me for a long time,ā he said, drawingĀ applause. And when I was at my lowest point, God was there with me, and sending me visionsĀ and inspiring me.
āThere are documentations of me drawing a church andā¦start a church in the middle of Calabasas,ā he said. āAnd even after that I went and made TheĀ Life of PabloĀ album. I said, āThis is a gospel album,ā and I didnāt totally know how to make a gospel album and the Christians that were around were too, I would say, beaten into submission by society to not speak up and profess the Gospel to, you know, to me because I was a superstar. But the only superstar is Jesus.

āSo in the studio, and this studio is gonna compare to places that youāre in life when people tell you to quiet your voice and not talk about Jesus so loud,ā he continued. āBut everything else is so loud around us. When Iām in California or when Iām in Vegas, they got posters up advertising sex trafficking, because if thereās an advertisement for a strip club, that is advertising sex traffickingā¦so if itās a man thatās going through things with his family or going through things at work and he feels he has to go there, we all end up participating, whether itās the spirits that get advertised to us all the time. Alcohol is, they call it a spirit. So we get constant advertisements for spirits,ā he said.
āWe get constant advertisements for strip clubs and other things like that. But then we bring up the name of Jesus, weāre told to be quietāāQuiet that down.'ā
Kanye continued, āSo even for someone whoās professing God and saying, āThis is gonna be a gospel album,ā the Devilās gonna come and do everything he can to distract people from knowing how to fully be in service to the Lord, and all of that arrogance and confidence and cockiness that yaāll see me use before God is now using for Him. I feel that Iām standing up and drawing a line in the sand and saying, Iām here in service to God and no weapon formed against me.ā
At one point, Kanye found an audience member disruptive and politely told them, āExcuse me. I go into these streams of consciousness when Iām talking and when youāre speaking in the middle of it, it distracts me. I really appreciate the support, but I would like for everybody to be completely silent so I can let God flow through me as I speak to you guys today.ā
