NEW SONG OUT ON ITUNES/SPOTIFY AND MORE...
Read moreA very South African GOOD MORNING to you!!
It's been a while since I communicated with you and I would just like to take this opportunity to say thank you for all your support this past year. Thank you for choosing to listen and share my music with others. I truly appreciate it, as it is because of you and your support that I have reached over 7600 plays.
The last 2 years with this pandemic has been so devastating to say the least. So many heartache, loss hit us, and we that are alive can just thank God for His mercy towards us in sparing us.
Some of us lost close family members, some suffered job losses, health loss, loosing your home, your safe haven, and some were lucky to still have family in tact, still able to have a job. All I can say is that God is still in control, no matter how things might be/seem. Just keep having faith in Him and let Him be in control of your life. He just has the best in store for you.
I am busy with recordings of new music and I ask that you keep everything in prayer. That God through His Holy Spirit inspire us to produce the right songs, songs that will, first and foremost, glorify Him, and secondly to be of inspiration and hope to everyone who needs hope. HE IS OUR HOPE!!
It is my prayer that when I share the music with you, that it will bless you and uplift your spirit and bring you a message of hope. Hope knowing that HE will take care of you amidst this chaotic world we live in.
May you have a wonderful day and may the rest of the week bring you happiness and peace. Know that you are in my prayers and I hope I can count on yours too.
The holiday season is fast approaching and I do hope and pray that you will be able to enjoy a blessed and fun filled, joyous festive season and that you will take care of yourselves and your loved ones and keep safe!
Thank you once more for all your support, I truly from the bottom of my heart appreciate it!
Greetings

It is with great pleasure and happiness that I am writing you all this message. To just say Thank You to the Lord for sending us an out pour of rain last night. As you all might have heard on the news it is very dry here in Cape Town South Africa and the dam levels are extremely low. But by the Grace of God, He has looked down on us and blessed us with rain (forecast for the next 3 days). Please keep us in your prayers!
Just like in the natural, we need the spiritual rain of the Holy Spirit as well in our lives to wash away all the dirt and cleanse us from the inside. This is my prayer that the Lord will pour out the rain of His Holy Spirit unto all flesh and bring forth new birth and revival in our hearts across the entire world. That many may come to Christ and witness Him turn around our lives in this crazy messed up world we live in, for the coming of the Lord is at hand.
This being said, I am in need of all your prayers as I venture on a new journey. I am still seeking the Lord's advice on how to go forward with the desire I have in my heart pertaining to my music. Thankfully the Lord has opened a door for me to persue a new album. Now praying for the funds, that God in His infinite wealth, will provide what is necessary for this project to be a success. A gentleman from the US has agreed to do the recording for me. This time it will be a product that has been on my heart from the very beginning, but I just couldn't get things right the first and second time. Now at last someone understood my style of music and he is able to write me the songs to suit it as well! Another prayer has been answered, thank you Lord!
Hence me asking for your prayers, that God will help and bless us on this new journey, specially with all the logistical challenges, one being me residing here in SA and he being in the US. I must say though, with the technologies of today, this is not such a major obstacle and I'm actually very excited to commence and look forward to working with him. I am also looking at adding more songs by the end of June for you all to have a listen to and I hope and pray that you will be blessed. I will also activate the links to purchase the music should you wish. My prayer as well is that the Lord will open some doors for me in the United States and the rest of the World, where I will be able to minister to the world and use this gift God has blessed me with, to His glory. To sing His praises and be a blessing to the world and tell them via song that JESUS SAVES!
I am counting on all your support in prayer!!

It is will great pleasure that I write you this letter. GOD IS SO INDESCRIBABLE!!! I lack words to really DESCRIBE HIS MAGNIFICENCE and GLORY, His WONDERS, THE GOD OF THE IMPOSSIBLE!!!
Yet again I was reminded to NEVER EVER LIMIT MY GOD!!! HE CAN DO MORE THAN WE EVER CAN IMAGINE!!
That being said, I would like to thank each and every one of you who supported my music, even if you just listened to it, from the bottom of my heart!! I really do appreciate each and everyone of you. And to those of you who sowed a seed by buying, thank you very much as well. May God bless all of you abundantly, that you will never ever miss what you have sowed into my ministry. Be it by buying the tracks, or be it by spending your time to listen to them.
Things with my music, (meaning getting it out there, (expired link) printed soforth) has just been one big challenge. It's just the one delay after the other. There were times when I have just decided to just give up and let it just all go and not bother about it anymore. I've been trying to get the graphic designer to finish the design for over a year now, bearing in mind he has been paid even before he started working on it. This is causing so many delays, I am unable to print the CD's for distribution to our congregation members (who still prefer to buy the hard copy) and to shops. I have decided to just let it go to "waste" all the money that I have invested and not worry about it anymore. Maybe I should just shift my focus and start a new project in the new year. The product that I wanted to do all along, but I have come to terms with it all and left it all in God's hands to sort out for me.
I am not going to allow the enemy to steal my joy and make me dispondent any longer. What must be must just be. God has been good to me this year, and I am grateful that I could at least reach the online audience to appreciate and listen to my music. And the responses alone has been "WOW" and overwhelming, specially people from other countries outside of South Africa where I come from and reside. May God bless you all!!! The inboxes I received, gave me courage to carry on doing what I am born and blessed to do. Bringing glory and honor to the Name of Jesus Christ through song!
May the approaching festive season bring all of you newfound HOPE and FAITH in GOD!! May He bless each and every one of you including all your family, friends, neighbors, colleagues, and even those unknown to you. May you experience His LOVE and PEACE during this time, and may the season bear new birth to every situation in your life.
Have a blessed Christmas and a Prosperous 2018!!!
GOD BLESS
Judy

About Judy Diko
Judy Diko was born to her parents in Firgrove, one of 3 daughters. She remember growing up in the apartheid era, spending many hours listening to her dad singing songs of encouragement. They did not have material wealth, but deep in their hearts they had an inner peace and believed what their parents taught them. She remembers that they had no musical instruments but that didn’t stop them from singing. She remembers and still pictures her dad singing his favorite song, “Since Jesus Came into my Heart”.
With this humble beginning Judy took it further. “I still remember that vinyl LP of Dallas Holmand André Crouch singing “The Blood Will Never Loose It’s Power”. Her parents kept on teaching them to “never stop believing in the blood of Jesus Christ, to always trust in Him and not to lean on their own understanding”. Judy said – “I
was fortune, even though we were not wealthy to have grown up in such a family
where my parents was my greatest inspiration and where the example was set by
them on how to serve God with your whole heart.”
Judy Diko is a talented artist blessed with a great singing voice. She is a CPUT
graduate who holds a Diploma in Information Technology. The story of Judy Diko has all the makings of modern day Christian Classic music, involving the fusion of African
music and the traditional classic music, and with a heart full of the love for God she only want to sing to the glory of God. As an upcoming artist she wants to let people know that your environment where you grew up does not define your character.
Based in the Helderberg region of the Western Cape Province a very under privilege
area, Judy has taken it upon herself to go for voice training from well-known voice
trainers, they also became her mentors. Something she says is priceless and an
excellent investment. She encourages every upcoming artist to invest in a excellent
voice trainer. It’s never too late to persue your dreams.
CAST SA met Judy, September 2013 at a CAST Spring Concert which took place at
Tabernacle of Praise Church, Parow (Western Cape). The singer travelled from her
base in Firgrove, in the Helderberg region to shower us with her wonderful God-given anointed voice. CAST immediately noticed the change of Gospel music through Judy Diko. Judy was interviewed on Community Vibes Radio & Radio KC and later became one of the Co-Presenters at Radio KC every alternate Sunday 20h00 to 21h00 alongside Louie Fortune. The listeners love Judy’s voice as an artist as well as a radio
presenter.
Albums recorded by Judy Diko:
<u>I Worship Your Majesty</u>
I was very fortunate to get a copy of her debut album I Worship Your Majesty. Here is
my short review of the 13 track album.
From ‘He looked beyond” through to ‘You are Everything the album I Worship Your
Majesty in mystery by Judy Diko is loaded 13 tracks of pure music joy. I like listening to a gospel version of What a Faithful God. The album was well received by every radio from Western Cape to the Northern Cape. The album opened doors for her where she had the privilege to minister in various churches & conferences wherever the calling was/is.
<u>Super Strength (In Jesus)</u>
The music on this album is soothing, and it evokes a deep assuaging emotion. The
unmistaken elements and a strong hint of Classic Operatic music are perfectly fused
with African contemporary sounds that tag at emotions in ways I have yet to experience in modern Classic contemporary gospel music. The music infiltrates the senses and creates a mood and atmosphere that is conducive for the Holy Spirit to take over. This is gospel music at a different level, even if one does not understand the language of the lyrics, one can still feel the Holy Spirit in the music. The lyrics make it undeniably gospel music, but the music is very spiritual and that transcends any language limitation. There is something powerful about it. One has to hear it, to feel it, this is music you feel, and then understand. But add understanding of the lyrics to the music and you have a winner. What Judy managed to do very expertly, was to encompass the three key ingredients of creative endeavor: intellect, emotion and imagination. With that combination she found a key to attune the listener to the melodies of heaven.
Judy Diko had the privilege to work with two well-known artist such as David Imani
(Congo) and Allou April (South Africa)
The album is titled Super Strength (in Jesus) and I would recommend that you get a
copy from iTunes or Amazon.
