Seraph Festival 3.0 To Inspire Spiritual Renewal – Seraph Shobanbo

The convener of Seraph Festival, Obawuraola Shobanbo, has said the third edition of the event will inspire spiritual renewal, strengthen worshippers’ faith and provide an opportunity for a divine encounter.

The programme, themed ‘Halleluyah’ and anchored on Revelation 19:1–6, will hold on Friday at 8pm at the National Stadium, Surulere, Lagos.

Shobanbo said the festival would go beyond a conventional religious gathering.

She also expressed confidence that it would draw souls closer to God, renew their faith and strengthen their relationship with Him.

She said, “We are trusting God that Seraph Festival 3.0 will be a time of spiritual renewal, when souls will be drawn back to Him, faith will be strengthened, and lives will be transformed through a remarkable move of His Spirit.

“Through songs of worship, the Word of God, praise and prayers, we believe that hearts will be stirred, faith will be renewed and lives will be transformed.”

According to her, the theme highlights God’s salvation, glory, honour, power and sovereign reign, which will be reflected in the lives of participants.

She added that the ministers invited for the programme had been carefully selected through prayers and spiritual guidance, noting that their ministrations would contribute to the spiritual experience expected at the gathering.

Explaining the choice of the theme, she said it reflected the spiritual progression of the festival over its previous editions.

She recalled that the first edition, themed ‘Extravagant Worship’, was drawn from Psalm 150:4 and encouraged worshippers to praise God wholeheartedly.

She also noted that the second edition, ‘Inhabited in His Praise’, was inspired by Psalm 22:3 and emphasised the belief that God inhabits the praises of His people.

Shobanbo said the third edition would build on the previous themes by encouraging participants to express gratitude, triumph, adoration and acknowledgement of God’s sovereignty through the declaration of ‘Halleluyah’.

“As we sought His direction in prayer concerning the theme for this year, we received the inspiration that after offering Him extravagant worship and acknowledging His presence in our praise, our response should be a victorious shout of Halleluyah,” she added.
