        THE HISTORY

                    It All Started With Visions

​

​

​

​

            It was year 2002‐2005, when I traveled all over the world in my sleep every night; until I became very concerned and started to ask to a lot of questions. At one point, I became fearful. It was so consistent that I would not want to go to sleep. I’ve been to various women’s shelters, hospitals, children’s centers. Walking through them in China, all Asian countries, Central and North America; laying hands on the sick, speaking Asian language, and casting out demons in possessed women, boys, and girls. Flying over the ocean when it dried up, where everyone would want to touch me, grab a hold of me, and I would make proclamations; many would fall down prostrate and be healed. I traveled various hospitals in the cancer department, where radiation is done, and tell the women to get out, decreeing healing on them.

 

          My visions became more and more intense toward the end of 2005. I received a very graphic vision where I was standing in a beautiful running stream of water to the height of my ankles, with angelic babies all around me. When I looked in front of me, behold a beautiful window on top of the ocean. The window in front of me, lo and behold, I then see my biological father appearing like the sun when it is setting. His skin had a glow like gold without a scar or dent. His hand stretches toward me, calling me, saying, “Come! Come! To the deep, come! I say come! I’ll be with you, I say come!” I was so afraid, but he continued to call me until I went to him. I was then awakened from the vision. The following night, I found myself walking around naked in a beautiful alley of water with the sun all over me. I was then caught up and began to preach. Then I began to teach. I then traveled another place that I did not recognize, poverty‐stricken areas, and began to heal everyone just by stretching forth my hands. After which, I began to prophesy, and people began to fall prostrate. I then traveled again, and went to dead churches and began to motivate them. The people became revived, and began to dance and speaking in their heavenly language. I then awoke, praising God in brokenness. All this time and prior during my three years of doing ministry in the Spirit, I developed a prayer life, or if I may say, a closer relationship with God. I was a home owner of one of the 7 bedroom mansions in Fayetteville and one of the largest rooms on the 3rd floor was my prayer room. I would the room at 5 am every morning, and would not leave until 4 hours later or more, depending on my schedule. As I am a very disciplined person, I do this consistently; no one can change me, or break me from this commitment. If I travel, I keep my prayer time of 4‐5 hours. I was then, and still am now, addicted to intercession. Now, I pray all night one day a week and also have shut‐in one day every week, where I speak to no one, in person or by phone.

 

          As a result, in February 2006, on my way home from Carver Bible College, I heard, get off Hwy 285 in Riverdale and make a left. I did just that immediately, and waited to see if I a policeman. I looked; I did not see a policeman. I said to myself, “Am I going crazy?” Then I heard, get out of the car, go into the hotel and book the Conference room for the next Sunday, which would be February 12, 2006. I stepped in quickly; I left the car engine running. I asked the front desk if they had a conference room, which the clerk responded yes. The room was right in front of me! I was so amazed! “Wow!” I booked the room, now realizing it’s all God now. I continued my journey home; I stopped at Sookey’s Beauty Supply on Hwy 85 & 138 in Riverdale. I stop here every Tuesday, where the owner would have me praying in the store, exchanging Words of Wisdom from the Bible, and praying for customers who asked. The owner was Asian, but was very much into fearing the true and living God. So this particular Tuesday, I met Nicole Phang. We loved on each other like we’ve known each other for over ten years and just haven’t seen one another in a while. Nicole left the store, but for some reason, came back. Then the Spirit of God says to me, “Give her your card.” She in return, gave me her card. The only thing on my card was Evangelist/Prophetess Arlene Williams‐Richards, phone numbers, and what I do as gifted. At this time, I was living in a very abusive marriage; verbally, spiritually, physically, and intimately. So, the supply store was my place of comfort, because I knew no one in Atlanta, having moved from New York, and was thinking of moving back. But God!! Hallelujah!

 

           On February 9, 2006, this same week, I felt a serious unction in my spirit to go out and minister in Riverdale Wal‐Mart. I then asked Crystal Wells, whom I met and won to the Lord as her mentor, to accompany me. I sought the permission of my abusive husband, which he did permit. He had no other choice, because it was truly God’s will. As I proceeded to go, I was not familiar with Georgia rules and regulations, but I was adamant about evangelizing as God called me to the deep. I told my husband not to worry and not to do anything if I go to jail. I told him that God got me, just call my immediate family. I knew I was going to be all right because I felt assuredly covered and very bold and strengthened. I felt like the head of “Gang.” I had a gangster strength, hypothetically speaking. We ended up ministering to about 100 women. Crystal and I then fell into the hands of the manager, where we became friends, and I was able to witness to him. Oh, it was such a blessing! I then returned home, and went to my bedroom. The Holy Spirit instructed me to throw everything from my purse onto the floor. The first card I saw was Nicole Phang’s business card, which says Venture Financial SVS; which has since changed to First United Tax Services. Then the Holy Spirit says for me to call her, which I did, not knowing what to say. By the time she says hello, I began to prophecy to her. She was amazed and became broken, because God answered her secret prayers through a stranger she met in the store.

 

          I invited Nicole to the first booked Healing and Deliverance Convention at the Ramada Limited Suites Conference Room. She was so excited; she had all her friends, mother, and grandmother, in her office. It was so packed; it reminded me of one of my visions. This office had over 80 people present. I laid hands on everyone; men, women, boys, and girls. I prayed for healing and deliverance. Debra Small experienced one touch, and received the Holy Ghost, speaking in her heavenly language, and now serves as my secretary. Many have been healed and delivered. One year later, God moved me to Hwy 314 West Fayetteville Rd. in Riverdale. One year later, He moved me again to another area on West Fayetteville Rd. At the end of that year, we had problems with the zoning office, in other words, we experience “Pharaoh and his army.” But God had a ram in the bush. He sent Esther Gates to navigate us to 3168 Washington Rd. Here we have been experiencing such an awesome growth, that He has answered prayers and has added Men of Valor to AHOM. As we journeyed with only one male for a while, more have been added. To God be the Glory! I look to Him only for the rest. We now look to Him for greater things to come and I give him my best, which is myself; so that He can further do His will for such a time as this. We are moving forward successfully. This is not a church as usual. It’s a ministry with order and decency. It is led by the Holy Spirit and all programs are subject to change at any given time. Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is Liberty. We look to Him, because AHOM is like a trauma center or an ICU. We follow the cloud, not the crowd. To God be the Glory! We have come this far by faith. Leaning on the Lord!
