Legendary Afro-Juju musician, Sir Shina Peters revealed that he was ordained as a bishop through divine calling.
In 2021, the veteran singer was ordained as a bishop at the Cherubim and Seraphim Church of God in the Iju area of Lagos State.
Speaking to newsmen on Friday in Lagos, the musician explained that the church leadership received divine instruction regarding his ordination.
He shared that the instruction, delivered divinely to the church leaders, came years before he accepted the ordination.
According to him, “The Almighty God told me that I should be made the first bishop of the Cherubim and Seraphim Church of God. He told the leaders of the church.
“God said this because I am the only musician who has consistently used hymns in my music and performances, and through this, I have won many souls for Christ.
“You know my music is often based on hymns.
“And I tried to avoid the ordination for a while until God finally got me arrested.”
Reflecting on his career, Peters expressed satisfaction with his progress and thanked God for guiding him through the years.
“I am fulfilled; I am content. The only thing I now ask my creator for is to keep enlightening me with His word and to grant me the grace to draw closer to Him.
“There is absolutely nothing I want to ask for now except to continue thanking God for my achievements by His grace.
“When I think back to those I started this journey with, who are no longer here, I remain grateful to my creator.
“As for what my fans can expect, I will only say they should expect something unusual very soon,” he said.
