Friends Vision

Picture he sent me: http://surfermag.com/photos/wallpapers/trentmitchh-1280.jpg

what I thought was going to be a review of your mix turned itnot a full blown vision and journey from the Lord Josh!

excellent chilled proggy house 10 minute intro my friend.....

at 9 minutes I reminice of gregor treshers 1000 nights and wonder how long we will have to worship Jesus...a vision sequence ensues:

and images of the billions of sandgrains flying through the air to form a great dune enter into mind

piling and piling higher as the sun makes them shimmer with energy

the blue of the sky is filled with these shimmering particles reflecting partially the brightness and beauty that is the sun

the dune continues to build moving steadily and forming along with other dunes a desert's simple beauty.

the wind keeps blowing....the sand flies higher into the clouds and now we are over the coast of africa

as minute 15 comes in

over the dark blue mass underneath us i see an enormous Jesus standing in the ocean amidst a flurry of floating people on electric toys riding and playing and having fun

the sky turns an amber of yellow and the water reflects this change into the golden light of near sunset gradients near the horizon

Jesus dances in this huge playfround of people sending huge waves, to the delight of the surfing people below..with each step the waves are sent in all directions, the enormous ripples are 10s of metres tall, surfers, floaters and skiffs of people enjoying Gods very active presence are sent in all directions of the atlantic...weee!!!

We follow this wave to the beaches of Brazil....where sunset turned quickly to dusk and night and we are watching the as the glittering city of rio de Janeiro and the dark silouettes of the the cliffs of the SUGAR LOAF island become clear against the starry sky at minute 23

we dance with people on the beach enjoying the thousands of stars lighting the waters edge with infinite energy. rolling waves submerge those lying near the waters edge and they are flooded with visions of the Holy One....rainbows of golden .ues and jewels surround the throne of the Dancing One

with each wave...new hues are made clear and the Lords love is felt all over the beach. people are being filled with hopes and dreams closing their eyes they have never felt so warm even here in brazil, never felt so alive, never felt so embraced...going back to the city will never be the same.

we leave the thousands of people who have come to see and hear Jesus Speak to them

as minute 30 floods my ears

friends and family of those who are at the beach are challenged to let the things of the world behind. Their friends and family beacon to come and taste and see the colours and flavours of the Lord but feel a pull from the directions of the home, the money, the poverty, the gangs and their drugs.

many will see and hear and fear the Lord....psalm 40

Follow me Jesus calls out to the young and old of the city....from the chic mansions of the rich to the favelas of the gangs and the poor.

He wants them to come and play and find their dreams in him....find their end in Him

we see drug dealers leave behind bags of substances, favela lords leaving behind power and prestige for the rolling waves of mery and grace at the beach wher eJesus and the others dance....Let it Go!! no matter what they say!

from the steep streets of the favelas, the slums at night we see the tiny shapes of people shining, a cloud of saints partying around the saviour at the edge of the ocean late into the night...the blue of the dawn lifts us high into the atmosphere into the coolness of the pure oxygen

beyond clouds and humidity of the brazilian favelas at mintue 38

we are soaring above the sky watching the earth turn and the sun's glare pierce our late night eyes and explode into our hearts

the euphoria that ensues sends me hurtling down a million miles per hour into an angled decent back towards the continent of Africa

only this time its south and the resistance of the atmosphere on my skin burns up all the darkness that was on me before. the appears to rise incredibly fast as this is happening at

minute 42 as i prepare for an impact with the ocean waves near the cliffs of western south africa

the ocean once again swallows up my concern as the millions of bubbles of steam and oxygen rise up all over me....turning the water azure and purple pink and green. this acid wash of colour leaves me dizzy...the Holy spirit tells me to dive deeper and swim.....soon I am not swimming as the current pulls me gently under and forward toward a light show of anemones and jellyfish and fish dazzling me with their colours and patterns too varied to concentrate on and too vast to view all at once. I say Lord there is too much to look at...he laughs and says isnt it great....this is eternity.

as minute 47 ends

the holy spirit draws me in and washes over me with electric strokes and cleanses me. I am transformed by the renewing of my mind. I have more clariy of gods good and perfect will.and I gasp for air as I surface

grasping for this surf board beside me I clamber on and paddle forward only to realize a huge wave is what what I am on.....as I feel myfelf being lowered in this huge dip gravity doesnt seem so bad right now...I can see the shore as I bob along to these large waves..I see the Table top mountain of Cape Town in the distance...My HOME!!! I am home...tears roll down my face in reality as I see the hope and glory of the Lord shining above this city...bright and clear over the beautiful city.

the sun.

I see the faces of the children running toward the sea at minute 56

meanwhile the rolling waves begin picking up power and speed as they near shore and I stand on my surfboard and I am surfing the wave!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

surfing ti south africa......crying with joy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am loving the experience Praising God for all his care and vision so far...I am heading in this direction with pupose and full of the holy spirirt

I can taste the salt of the sea on my lips and the vision keeps rolling on as my surfing adventure ends in a crash near the shore............

I am blacked out

crap.

cant breathe.

at minute 60

the water above me pushes me under

and I struggle to get up to the surface.......I wake up

and I am very deep in the dark water....I thought I was near the beach.....I look around and see the blood...a gash on my leg sends a beautiful stream of of my life blood into the abyss

I see my surfboard rising finally and hold on to it

until we reach the the daylight.....swimming waekly toward the thin beach ahead....my arms burn and my thigh is really sore....I need You God!! help me get to the shore!

the sun is high above us

noon. anf the thirst within me is also unbearable...

we reach the beach my friend and the children are still running.

I black out once again....

at minute 60:06

I see Jesus walking towards me and reahes out to pick me up and I stand...he picks up the snd of the beach and lets it fall thorugh his fingers....

the wind blows the falling grains into the ground and they tumble away somehow I focus my eyes on these dry grains pouring from the davious hands.....

they, like the dune's sands....reflect the golden light given off by the Holy one....I recoil in horror of my own sin that made Jesus die for me I cant stand and I fall face first itno tthe

sand crying....please forginve me. I need your help to take this sin away....my heart my mind I nneed your grace!

minute 60:12

The echoes of his beautiful voice ring in my ears as he says: Get up beautiful one, you are my son. I love you, I love you, let me wash you of this darkness James. run my sun.

run after my heart. keep going. keep running and swimming and flying and surfing for the ones I died for. lead them to me as you run others will follow...the sweat on your brow...the pain in your legs will be the testimony that you have worked hard to be in me. to see the brighter day of the SON dissolve the sorrow. turning their Lows into the birhgter days. dont lose hope. trust me James. I love you.

see.....

I wake up to the sound of children praying over me. theri prayers open a hole in the sky and this angelic hoard is seen above us slowly from this distance but infact very rapidly falying in a circle the size of the gaping hole in the sky....theey are armed heavily and the angles dont look like the angles you or i think of when we think of angels....I see purple hourglass shaped beings frames of circular and triangular machinary flying with laser wings and flaming blades of the whitest steel I have ever seen....thousands upon thousands of these things are lining this tubular opening in the sky .....the darkness around me dissipates...and the ahundred of the angels comes swooping down to destroy the remnbants of the darkness.....nothing can really stand in their way...

except this one great enemy huge...a giant mound of a being. pyramidal in shape and chunky darkness surrounds the demon of this part of the world.

me the children pray that the angels be abel to defeat this enemy...as minute 60:24 HITS!!!

no way! its a spiritual battle right beofore my eyes!!!!

I realize it is the demon of AIDS and the Greed that controls the southern part of this continent...

WASH MY WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We cry out to Jesus to come and defeat this sickening thing

The angels pummel this thing but it keeps sending huge blocks of earth and mud to block the way

we stand ther in the sand watching and crying until we realize that Jesus calls to the battle front

and the vision ends.

It seems that God's Plans are not always what I expect

Mon, 05 Mar 2007 07:42:26 GMT

Well, God has always throughout history shown that His will, is above and better than mans. And yet today God is still showing this to us. God will always show us this, becuase He loves us and wants what is best for a people who often do not know left from right...let alone what path to take. God, indeed has brought some very interesting things into my life and is moving me in ways I have not seen coming. God has brought a woman in my life as soon as I had gotten to the point of not needing one nor wanting one. In my heart things were going one way, and then the Lord stepped in and said..."wait Joshua, listen to me." Well, as normal God does what is needed for His people to be close to His heart and He is doing this through a woman in my life. Praise God for all His wonderful ways. Now...on with the pictures. The woman's name is Cristy Cook for those who do not know.


                                                                   This is us......and

                                                                   So is this......and

Thats MY MOM!!!! My first woman of my life:)!!!

Love you all!

Ahhhh GOD IS GOOD!

Fri, 02 Feb 2007 08:47:16 GMT

What can I say, life is hard right now but very very good. God is doing so much in my heart and getting me ready to lead others to Him. I feel I have so far to go until this ministry is underway...but I know God will do His wonderful work of seeing this through. Cristy is here is Sacramento now, that has been cool it is always fun to see God moving in someones life. Music has been coming very slow as usual!:( But I may have some stuff being finished soon:)!!! Praise God! But no promises yet. All the same, if you are reading this I pray you seek God harder than you ever have before and you give Him your all everyday:)!!!

Praise our God for He is all we really have. Whatever you are going through, God is there. Wherever you are, God is there. In your midst...waiting for you to long after Him and be truly hungry for Him. SO EAT UP THERES LOTS TO EAT!

Finding God in the Hard things

Fri, 17 Nov 2006 01:20:07 GMT

Well, here in Sacramento I have been finding God in very different ways. Most recently God has been taking me through a spiritual boot camp and it has been very hard. But something always comes to mind and this is what has got me through it all,

Isaiah 40:28-31
(go look it up I don't feel like typing it all out on here:))

But the best part of it all for me is this "But those who trust in the Lord will find new strength." WOW! Guys, seriously go find your NEW strength I am telling you it is crazy. Praise God for all He is doing in the music as well. For all who have not heard yet, I have found a co-founder for the ministry. His name is Dustin...pray for us please! So the ministry is underway and God is doing so much. I am working on making a newsletter for the ministry so anyone who wants to stay up to date can. Please e-mail me if you want to get on that list when it is ready. ALSO the website is around the corner! Really this time! So all your waiting will pay off. Love you all!

Well, well, well...look who is updating. Things are going great! Being back in Sacramento make me feel like I have just got up from a long nap! God has been doing so much and working through me to so many people. I also have been working on another mix and it is going to be called "Raging Passion". It has a wonderful start to it and I feel like I am starting to get my own style down in mixing. God has really put His Spirit into the intro of this mix (I remade it and stuff but ya whateve) and feel that it is moving in a very passionate way. Anyways, I still have not finished my production stuff I did with Sogol and Rachel...I wonder when I will finish that...

Love you all (whoever does read these:)

Praise God always!

Mon, 10 Jul 2006 19:18:10 GMT

After much conisderation I have decided to update.

No worries I am feeling fine, and life is going very well. Jesus has been moving in me in ways I can't explain and I feel as if I am on a music journey right now. Finding the fullness of Christ in music, and I have found others joining me in this. Tastyfresh.com is a Christian DJ website I have found and God has really been blessing me on this. Go see it for yourself. I have also found many people here who are devoted to Christ in music and to find a new Generation of Music in their hearts to bring alive. Anthony, Rachel, and Sogol. Can't forget Jeff. These are some of the many people encouraging me in my walk with Christ through music. Praise God. Well new CD coming soon for DJ Faith. I am hoping to have this as a free one. So make sure to ask me about it. Should be done in like a week or so. It will be a hour long mix. Be blessed everyone.
