about us

Pastor Alex O. Ombura is the founder and leader of Jerusalem's Shiners' Chapel, a worldwide outreach gospel ministry. Delivered from the claws of Satan by Christ, he has since been mandated by the Spirit to take to the four corners of the globe a double edged message of prosperity for the righteous and judgment to the wicked. His great zeal to fulfill this objective has been instrumental in making him what he is to day in the world.

The launch of Jerusalem's Shiners' Chapel ministry has been necessitated by the LORD God's audible command to His servant saying; "This day I've made you one of the greatest men to walk the earth. Arise, establish Jerusalem." Under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, I have come to learn that the LORD’s urgent command for the re-establishment of Jerusalem at this critical moment in man’s history is because Jerusalem stands for:
a) The earthly representation of the Throne of GOD Most High, and the City of Truth in Zion (Zechariah 8:3). We know that the Word of GOD is the Truth (John 6:63). It there-fore follows that this is the city of the Word of God. And Jesus Christ is that Word that the Scripture bears witness of (John 5:39).
b) It is the navel of the world, i.e. it has umbilical honours, and all the peoples of the world are to be gathered here for the worship of the Living God (Ezekiel 38:12; Zechariah 2:11; 8:22).
c) It is idealized as the capital of the Kingdom of GOD (Revelation 21:2-23).
d) It is the City of Melchizedek (Genesis 14:18; Hebrews 7:2). It follows that in this chosen Jerusalem, the chosen Melchizedek symbolizes the coming reign of the Perfect Melchizedek – the King of justice, peace and righteousness. That is to say that this chosen Melchizedek prepares the way of the Lord of Lords and King of Kings, Jesus Christ before He returns to rule the earth in person for a thousand years.
e) It is the valley of visions (Isaiah 22:1).
f) It is a tower of revelations (Isaiah 4:2).
g) It is the precursor of the Messiah (Psalm 110).
h) The city stands at a junction of two important trade routes of Israel.
i) Although the origin of the name Jerusalem is not given in the Holy Bible, nevertheless the Jewish Talmud informs us that Noah’s son Shem was the founder of the city, and he called it Salem, meaning a place of peace. Abraham, however, during his time renamed the city Jeru which means a place of reverence. Their descendants – the Israelites, later not wanting to favor one of their great ancestors above the other – combined both names for the city and Jerusalem came to existence.
j) If the holy city is now given the Gentiles by the LORD, GOD Almighty, it is for two reasons: First, the Church of Christ is now given the Gentiles (Luke 21:24; Revelation 11:2). Secondly, it is to fulfill the prophecy of Isaiah that “In that day shall five cities in the land of Egypt speak the language of Canaan, and pay their vows to the LORD of hosts; one shall be called the city of destruction. In that day shall there be an altar to the LORD in the midst of the land of Egypt, and a pillar at the border thereof to the LORD. And it shall be for a sign and for a witness to the LORD of hosts in the land of Egypt” (Isaiah 19:18-20). Needless to say, the ancient Egypt of the Bible was the land of the black-man. Therefore now already established under Bishop (Dr.) David Oyedepo in Lagos, Nigeria, is the ancient city in the land of Canaan - Shiloh.
