Meet Peters Michael, A Seraph With Artistic Fingers

The first book of the Bible, Genesis, started with the creation of the world. The scripture says; “In the beginning, God created the heaven and the earth…”, the scriptures started with the story of the greatest artist in the whole universe. In subsequent verses, the scripture recorded that God created man in His own image. Just like he created man in his own image so also he gave us the minds to conceive creative ideas and hands to artistically bring those ideas to reality.

Hmm, you all might be wondering the correlation the first paragraph has with the topic in discourse. Whatever gift that a man finds himself using excellently well, one must endeavour to use it to populate the heavenly Kingdom.

Today we bring something a bit different to what we have always dished out in this segment of Seraph of the Week. Our correspondence was caught up in an exclusive chat with one of the best graphics artiste, illustrator, web designer and Animator in Nigeria. A man whose prowess in Cinematography is second to none.

Good to note, this man is just one of the numerous talents in the C&S fold. Seraph Peters Oluwamayowa Michael is a veteran artist, cinematographer and Animator. In the chat with our correspondence, Seraph Oluwamayowa disclosed that his type of ministry is aimed towards children. According to him, the Bible sternly warns that we should train our children in the right way so that when they grow, they would not depart from it. He believes that the glory of the church is the little children, if the little ones are given the right concept to build on through an undiluted Bible knowledge, the elders can sleep with their eyes closed knowing that the ministry of Christ is in safe hands.

This idea and perception gave birth to his company Media Christian Network that produces Animated Bible stories for kids which are presently aired in his mother’s church, Miraculous foundation c&s church, Agric Ikorodu. The dream is to spread the concept to all C&S churches soon.

Find below some of his works:

It is no doubt that his idea will not only benefit little children in the fold but also change the perception of people about the fold of being bereft of proper Biblical knowledge.

While sharing his experience with members of other churches. Seraph Oluwamayowa disclosed that he has experienced discrimination and alienation several times because he’s a member of the fold. However, in the end, his style, behaviour, manner of approach and things he does always make them see a different Seraph in him. May I also add that people no longer read the scripture what they read now is you and I. Our life must preach the gospel of Christ even before we utter a word out of our mouth.

It will interest you to know that his artistic hands in Animation are highly divine. Seraph Oluwamayowa disclosed that at a time when he was still learning cinematography and animation, he was experiencing some kind of difficulty even though he was enjoying it. One night in his dream, unlike the hands that wrote on the wall which caused confusion in the camp of King Belshazzar, he saw a hand teaching him things in Animation and to his greatest surprise, he was getting every bit of it accurately. In the end, the hand gave him the assignment to make a Bible story Animation for children. Since that encounter, his life in the world of creativity has not remained the same, his prowess in creativity has not experienced any backward move.

What a visionary individual Seraph Oluwamayowa must be? He revealed the basic things he would change if he becomes the head of the fold worldwide.  Quoting him, there are three things I would love to change, Prophetical messages, Evangelism and Teens and Children ministry. I see the children being left out of our worship, we always make up with caterpillar approach, its when we have children anniversary that we rush to teach, we have forgotten that they are the heritage of God

 Seraphs need to invest in their children, they invest in grassroots, we on our part we are coming up with a plan to have a Children Kiddies club tagged “God Loves me”. Children shouldn’t be left out in building Seraph empire once again, there is a Yoruba adage “eyin lo da akuko” (eggs turn into chicken)

I met a boy of 12 years who is into this scam called ‘Yahoo Yahoo’, you need to see how this small boy was talking and typing. I had a chat which his parents who are members of the fold, I have been checking on him every week to be of usefulness, I am bringing him in to be a Animation designer and with God he is changing”.

Meanwhile, Seraph Oluwamayowa is still believing God for people who will share in his vision to make an animated life story of the founder of the C&S church, Saint Moses Orimolade Tunolase.  This will help the new generation of Seraphs to know more about the founder of the fold.

One might begin to wonder where this energy and enthusiasm for achieving so many vision is coming from. Well, they came from God the giver of life, also, with his penchant for Eba and locally made Soup, such energy cannot be questioned. Seraph Oluwamayowa’s most memorable day was the day he was accredited a certified Satellite Engineer for SES DTH south Africa at Sheraton Hotel Ikeja.  His favourite hymn is K&S 556 Ma to ju mi Jehofa Nla.

Conclusively, Seraph Peters Oluwamayowa Michael is the Seraph of the week for this edition, stay tuned next week as we unveil the profile of another. Seraph in the fold. Meanwhile, follow us on our social media platforms.
