Renowned Afro-Juju musician, Sir Shina Peters, stated that he was made a Bishop due to his efforts in winning souls for Christ through his music, which often includes hymns.
During an interview with NAN, he mentioned that this was God’s plan for him.
He received his Bishop ordination from a Cherubim and Seraphim Church in Iju, Lagos State, in 2021.
Shina Peters stated that the leadership of the Cherubim and Seraphim Church was guided by a divine instruction about his ordination.
He pointed out that this guidance came years before he decided to accept the ordination. He said:
“The Almighty God said that I should be made the first bishop in the Cherubim and Seraphim Church of God. He told the leaders of the church.
“God said this is because I am the only musician who has been consistent in using the hymns in my music and performances, and with this, I have won many souls for Christ.
“You know my music is usually taken from the hymns.
“And I tried to dodge the ordination for a while, until God finally got me arrested.”
Speaking about his career, Shina Peters expressed satisfaction over his growth and appreciated God for guiding him through the years. In his words:
“I am fulfilled, I am contented. The only thing I always ask my creator for now is to keep me more enlightened in His word and the grace to get closer to Him.
“There is absolutely nothing I want to ask again than to continue to give thanks to God for my achievements so far, by His grace.
“When I go down memory lane and I think about those we started the journey of life together, who are no more, I remain grateful to my creator.
“On what my fans should expect, I will only say they should expect something unusual very soon,”
