At 19, Judá is a young man who arouses admiration for his passion for the presence of God and for the various artistic gifts he carries. From his mother’s womb, he carries the promise of being a worshiper. Playing four instruments, fluent in three languages and leader of his church’s Worship Ministries, Judah stands out as a multifaceted talent. In addition, he has a remarkable history, having lived in Angola for two years.
Now, he is preparing for the release of his first music project titled “Conversion” and “Conversion C/ Oneservice Project”, where he expresses an intimate prayer to God. With a career on the rise, Judah is also an entrepreneur in the field of social media and a Christian digital influencer, sharing his faith and lifestyle through social networks. His commitment to God’s Word and his ability to influence and inspire audiences are hallmarks of his artistic and spiritual journey.
His first musical project, “Conversão” & “Conversion C/ Oneservice Project,” is an expression of his personal prayer to God. Can you tell us more about the process of creating this song and what message do you want to convey to listeners?
Prayer is intimacy for me and when I brought my personal prayer in the form of praise to the listeners, I projected a connection, an equality of experiences and testimonies with it, the feedback regarding this was concluded because the reports I received were directed what I set as a goal.
As a Christian digital influencer, you cover a range of relevant topics, from the Word of God to mental health and the Christian lifestyle. What are your criteria for choosing the subjects to be addressed?
As Aesop, a great writer from Ancient Greece, says, “Union is strength” and that is literally what I bring in my networks, the fact that it is no use focusing on a specific area of our life, if the rest is in deficit, being healthy in all areas of our lives is super effective for living well.
After the success of your first single “Conversão”, what lessons do you learn from the beginning of your career up until now, and what are your plans from now on?
If I could sum up the biggest lesson I had in my first project, I would sum it up in one word, Constancy, because starting is easy, but continuing is persisting in your purpose and you have to be firm not to stop. And what I have prepared for the future regarding praise will surprise many.
We know of your musical talent and creativity to write songs with themes about the word of God. Do you believe that this inspiration to compose songs with this bias is something that started at what point in your life?
As soon as I decided to occupy the position that God had for my life, everything flowed naturally, nowadays, the Lord gives me songs in 10 minutes with everything ready and that just proves to myself that it’s not about me but about Him .
You recently took a trip to Europe, was it a family outing? Tell us a little about the places you visited and how this experience was for you.
I love to travel, especially when it’s to another country, this trip was very important for my church, IAED because there was a purpose in this trip and we managed to fulfill it, parallel to that I also made content for my networks.
What are the main topics you address in your messages as a Christian digital influencer?
Revolution is the keyword for this generation and I always try to approach this topic in my networks in different ways.
How did you overcome the odds of losing your social media accounts with a lot of followers? How has this affected your journey as an influencer?
It was sad to lose my accounts, but I always tried to be mature enough to have another thought and try to see what Judah would do from then on to recover what was lost.
How has your experience living in Angola influenced your artistic and cultural outlook?
In fact, an experience like this changes anyone’s life, regardless of their social, artistic or personal class. This place gave me the way I saw life as a whole, in terms of opportunities and privileges, and it still transforms me today.
What message would you like to convey to your followers and those impacted by your music and digital influence?
In my daily life I try to influence everyone in any way and bring my authenticity and position in God to the media, I always try to pass on my truth and what I believe, without pressure and without “forcing” others to accept my true.
How do you see the role of art and music in expressing faith and connecting with God?
God is a creator and that automatically makes us creators of something, we have the ability to make and create art and make it a weapon for the Kingdom of God.
