I performed this poem for the first time Jan 11th live at For The King's "Lights Out" event. Because it was my first time I was a little rusty on the delivery. Be looking for a produced poem of this poem (the way we film our other ones) in the next few months! Also be looking for the next Lights Out event in April.Get my audibook FREE here: www.jeffbethke.... my audibook FREE here: www.jeffbethke.... my audibook FREE here: www.jeffbethke....

"How dare you call yourself worthless when god says you're priceless" That's just marvellous!

[@donmcghee8217]

I am so impressed by the gift God gave you Jeff. I am 60 years young and after years of listening to all kinds of people trying to communicate the true without any spin, you seem to have mastered what the Master wanted you to say. I've been sharing your great videos with all of my under fifty crowd hoping they are a little bit inspirted by what God is sharing through your special gift. Keep up the good WORK!

[@annreda2]

One of the best and strongest poems I've heard in a long while. God bless.

[@I_AM_3.6.9.]

Ann Reda i agree

[@jamestolbert1856]

Amen! May God bless this man’s work!

[@PregnantHamster]

there's something in your voice.the passion you talk about Jesus and God that just give's me chills.you have a gift sir,and i'm glad you use it! I wish there we're more people like you, we need people like you

[@prajgoodwin]

As a youth pastor, I use your videos all the time. Its a great way to bring God's word to youth. Makes.it come alive to then on a different level than just hearing a message or a devotion. There is definitely an anointing on you and your ministry. Keep it up Jeff.

[@LarissaLeeWordpress]

As a non-Christian, I'd like to say you (and others like you) are proof that your God is great. Sometimes, in the sea of angry Christians looking for a scapegoat and pointing fingers, it's hard to remember how beautiful His path can truly be. I look forward to future videos.

[@joshtullos6010]

I'm speechless. This is absolute gold. Thank you, God, for allowing your creativity to flow through us, and thank you, God, for using Jeff as a canvas for the words EVERYONE needs to hear.

[@anayahphares7067]

Listening to this right after my morning devotion was the best thing I ever did. There's no doubt that you have a God given talent, and what pleases me the most is to see it being used for it's righteous purpose. Thank you for this...

[@RH-rl4dp]

A true poet flowing from the creator through you...God has created a masterpiece in you to share with the world and show true...you have amazing poems that are deep, but also a truth about what God seeks...thanks Jeff for sharing your gift with us and thank you God for bestowing such a gift on you😆

[@R66U95A94A2001]

"Even our own creativity is nothing more than an outflow of his" ...... Amazing!

[@Schlotzinger]

Great! Thanks Jeff. Today is sunday, I sit alone in a foreign country and could not join any church service, and I miss it. So thanks for speaking to my heart.

[@RajneeshKxx]

Wow! Blown away right now! And also crazy how before I even heard this God ministered about all of this. Praise God!

[@JasonLee074]

May God continue to use Jeff's words to reach deep into our souls.

[@JadeAbbott]

God took his eternal paintbrush, dipped it in his glory and put YOU in his story - these words are beautiful

[@sarahmoore3385]

God has used you to speak to me and others around me in a way undesirable , wanted just to say thank you for the words you give but only through the life of God that you live .

[@brookealbright3992]

You have definitely been blessed by God!!!!! That was AMAZING!! I pray that someday, God will bless me with a creative, yet natural ability to spread His word in a way that can turn the hopeless into believers!! Amen. Thank You

[@meghanlamb4735]

He is great! This has opened my eyes so much and so many of my friends eyes too. It really proves how Powerful God is everyday.

[@anjujoseph1967]

thank God for using you for His kingdom!!

[@melmaye]

This was amazing. I honestly smiled the majority of the poem just thinking of God being the ultimate artist. This one needs to be shared!!

[@zoebommarito]

The Holy Spirit is the only proof I need to know my God is with me. Stop polluting the comments with debate. Great job, Jeff-You are truly a man of God.

[@yensisfigueroa9312]

I believe in God because He gave both my paents second chance to live. My dad was in the hospital for 3 months and on the verge of death because of Bronchitis, but God saved him. My mother was diagnosed with a tumor on her head, but because of God's mercy it was removed, my parents are healthier as ever now. If it wasnt because of God,I wouldnt have gotten to go to college this Fall, have a roof over my head, and have blessings. He loves you and all of us like no one else. HE LOVES YOU! :D

[@AllThingsToeseen]

''even our own creativity is an outflow of His''...word!

[@ruthonyirimba1294]

I love that this is all about how artists got their creativity from the Creator, but my favourite part is that you practice what you preach, giving God the credit for the poem! Well done(:

[@jolynnscorner]

"How dare you call yourself worthless when He calls you priceless" Love this line!

[@cuttytutty22]

Jeff, you are such an inspiration! Praise God! I can't explain how many times I've listened to this poem, and have been touched by it every single time!

[@nonstopcowboyjoe]

I've been away from church since I was very young an your words in all of these poems that I've listened to an watch has made me move closer to going back to church I just want to say thank you an I would love to see you come to cincinnati to spread your word

[@amoore1004]

Yes! I'm so glad you commented that because I've thought the same thing. What's their goal? I want to tell them "Go live your life without hope or faith in anything but yourself and leave those WITH the faith, truth, and hope, alone!" I don't understand these people but it's really disheartening and appalls me that so many people stir up debate over EVERYTHING from the picture of an ocean to the color of the sky. Sickening. But what they don't realize is that they are dark and miserable.

[@bryanpaxton4808]

Gifted in words and a strong heart for God --- truly love how you walk out your faith by sharing the gifts you have been given. Truly a blessing --- keep doing your thing, man. Love it.

[@hermit091]

I love this poem! So true and beautiful, never thought about art that way! So glad to see other people in this world who love God and are not ashamed.

[@HopeHasWarriors]

Wow, thank you once again Mr. Bethke for reminding how profound every life is. God bless you!

[@Purplecamellia]

"Were drawn to repentance because of His kindness.." Preach brother!!!

[@ohshaa]

Praise the living God! Hallelujah! He is worthy is be praised! God bless you, brother! Keep reaching young people for Jesus!

[@tiffomac]

I have this entire thing memorized. Knowing my dad, he'll probably want me to do this before he goes up before he preaches.

[@TRUSTJESUS33]

Very good message. Very comforting to hear this. Lord continue to use ALL of us for your glory. Continue to use this young man to accomplish your WILL!! Praise Jesus FOREVER!! Master, Savior, Creator & FRIEND!! Hallelujah :)

[@julianalu.685]

Goosebumps!!!! One of the best poems ive ever heard!!!❤️

[@jamestolbert1856]

The. Best!

[@sweetzxxhoney5374]

AHAAHAH I LOVE THIS!!! IM DANCING ON MY BED AT HOW GLORIOUS HOW GOD IS!!!IM SHARING THIS!!!! AMEN!

[@eddiesantos912]

By far one of the most amazing things I have ever heard. Amen

[@FoottyMulti]

Man, Jeff I love you brother. My parents crush my pride but you just built up my self esteem because you eminded me that I am a masterpiece of the greatest artist! Thank you.

[@JeffersonBethkepage]

[@prockey102]

***** bro, I love spoken word... and I love Jesus, so I love gospel spoken word even more... Love it bro. This is by far my favorite thing I've ever seen God do through you. Excellent, homey.

[@dimitriyalousi7279]

This Yough Guy is a Good example of how much God loves us! Look how Jesus has blessed him, Changed him for the better.

[@brittmoses]

i have chills. GLORY TO THE KING OF KINGS.

[@aadame7376]

How AWESOME is He!!!!!! Praises to the Father, the Son & the Holy Spirit!!! This just totally made my day! Thank you for the spoken word, Jeff. God bless =)

[@DavidLuigiONeail]

True art.... giving all the glory to God. Beautiful.

[@alejandroarvizu8819]

I incline with affirmity as a foundation to trust his commands and love him before anything with stronger intent and acceptance of my mothers law to give grace to my neck by the grace of this song. Almaneen

[@clarinetist91]

This is one of my favorite things on KZbin! I pull so much inspiration and motivation from your channel for my own poems. Love love love!!

[@mattzsi]

Can't tell you how timely viewing this was for my soul. Keep going bro! Glory to God!

[@alantle10]

You are amazing with your words and delivery! Thank you! And thank God he created you. The words you spread in the way you do are perfect for the young-ins of our time! You are someone to look up to and want to be like! Thank you!

[@epicXbunnyXjawz]

I never deeply thought about how God made us that deeply and now I feel so warm knowing I am the art of God that he made me out of love.

[@cakincade]

ok i needed to find you today, my faith has been fading here recently. I've been looking to false artist. so thank you for reminding who is the real artist.

[@MomotarosSWORD]

No one can ever prove the existence of God but life being transformed by God is evident. People who are born into violent environment. Born to do evil. Their hearts can be changed by the grace, peace and love of God if they are willing to let Him.

[@lovelyleah233]

So blessed by this! Praise Jesus!

[@scottbignell]

I love this guy's flow and enthusiasm. I just don't see how any of it's true.

[@johnathondudley]

Wow amazing how real he always is sometimes we don't need to told what we want to hear but what we need to hear

[@ZooByloby]

you should make a poem video on this one, this one is one of my favorite poems of yours

[@Shaereub]

Another masterpiece created by God with the help of Jeff.

[@Zucal21]

I'm so glad God made this...So beautiful

[@MrMarcusD3]

Favorite one so far.. this dude really reminds me how close I am to God. Thanks

[@RGBrobot]

3:47 - That's pretty awesome.. Other artists reject broken tools.. God fixes them!

[@checkoutmyplaylist]

I thank God for this....because now we have someone to inspire people to grow closer to God through poetry and music, to combat what the devil is producing through these other artist keeping them from the lord.

[@michaelwileman4586]

Everything you say glorifies God, you are one awesome man of Christ! Keep it up!

[@svbjsschrst]

Because I feel a kind of warmness while talking, singing or praying to God. And, I know it's hard to understand and believe, but somehow I just FEEL it's the truth. The emptiness, this void inside I've been trying to fill for months, overflowed when I gave God control! Just try to talk to God, He's eager to give you the same feeling!

[@latoyamurray-johnson1020]

Love this guys work, keep allowing God to use you, and you blessing will continue to make room!! Will be getting you book soon. Stay encouraged my brother in Christ!

[@chazyt]

That's beautiful!!!! Reminded me of something I wrote "The Greatest Mastermind". You just inspired me once more...this is just beautiful!!! Amen!

[@rachaelkauffman6283]

the Lord gave this man an amazing and useful gift that helps him spread the word of our Creator

[@musicluverS2]

Wow!! You're amazing! Let God use you ... seriously that creativity of yours is a gift, use it to the fullest and God will look at you and say "Well done my child" and it'll be all worth it when that time comes. God bless you!

[@1BeautifulZion]

Jeff never fail to deliver God's message to us

[@111beatbox]

This was SO beautiful !! Wonder that u r pointing 2 the TRUE artist... **Praise God**!

[@michaelfulton2013]

Praise God!

[@marcadavin]

I know that you get alot of comments but i'm so happy that God is using you to help me and the sad part is you don't even know me.

[@quack4christ]

This is by far my favorite poem yet

[@hawktower12]

I only have one thing to say. BEAST MODE! Your work inspires me everyday, and thats the truth.

[@Nata_n2010]

- You are God's poetry- I love it. All I can say - THANK YOU!!!

[@kaykajo8276]

It didn't even sound like he was bringing you down. Just stand for faith, like we all do. With God we're the majority.

[@lyd7n]

I spent many years of my life "believing" in God, but the reality was I had devoted my self to dream and that dream tried to become reality. I really wish there was a god, I would prefer it to be that way. I became a much more open and happy person once I left faith and haven't looked back

[@ChelseaMF13]

Wow... You have just blown me away! And the funny thing is, i was just about to say, Jeff, YOU have incredible talent. But instead i will say, what incredible talent GOD has put within YOU! How amazing is God to give us these abilities! This poem really has just changed my perspective. Incredible!

[@LivinforChrist700]

Really touched my heart. Who are we to hold our sins against us if He forgives us?

[@zizou4111]

I'm agnostic myself, but I respect that others do believe in a deity, whether that be God or Buddha or anything else. However to answer your questions "Why do you come here if you don't believe in God", I come here because Jefferson is a brilliant spoken word artist and I like to hear his work.

[@MsLovelyStacy]

Your words get me every time! *tear*

[@NylahK]

This is beautiful! The first of your work I've heard and I can't wait to hear the rest.

[@xoxoxox95]

All I have to say is AMEN!! I think this is my favorite now!! Love it, keep it up.

[@Racheybabysings]

3:34 - the moment of realization where we are nothing but God is everything

[@andreabustamante4261]

this poem touched my heart in the most tremendous and amazing way possible.

[@heydlovesyou]

Living for HIM because HE died for me!

[@Lelanivz13]

Oh my goodness...this one might be one of my favorites

[@RokdimMayim]

This is just beautiful. I'm in tears, thank you!

[@grantyoder5266]

And He put everything under His feet and appointed Him as head over everything for the church, which is His body, the fullness of the One who fills all things in every way.

[@LarissaLeeWordpress]

I'm a Wiccan, but my beliefs fit those presented in "Stranger in a Strange Land" (book). All paths are valid only within their own structure, but souls are fluid and able to pass from one to another. In other words, I believe in the Christian God, but I also believe that my path is my own to walk.

[@kjhs247]

Damn bro that was powerful!! Amen to every to word you said. Praise the Father and his Son FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Greeny1142]

Bethke confirms his quote, he is the living example of how religion can blunt someone's mind.

[@LarissaLeeWordpress]

Thanks, I actually saw that one first. Then I started browsing his other videos.

[@The19Chris77]

Bro. You are so on point. Every video is amazing. Not sure if i would re-do this one. I think how raw and real it is makes it His perfect work.

[@xDancingforJesusx]

This has really spoken to me today. I have to quit blaming myself for everything that Jesus said we are priceless!! I AM NOT WORTHLESS!! I AM FREE!!

[@florarenales2002]

Still amazed and touched by this.

[@mantajdhaliwal2581]

I don't think they INSIST on stirring up trouble but rather they'd like to make it known that their opinions are just as much valid as someone who is a believer.

[@iamwolf972012]

You don't need to hear the music when you know what notes create each chord and which chords work together in progression. However, once someone learns to play an instrument they don't need to look at the instrument to see which notes are being played. I'd say they are equally amazing though.

[@1WarriorPrincessOfTheLord]

Wow!!! Praise God!!!!

[@MyMakersDaughter1993]

This poem touched me! God is working through you, glory be to Him :)

[@latoyamurray-johnson1020]

Love this! God is as real as your breathe!
