In May 2023 the Lord began speaking to me about doing a prophetic adventure in Charlotte, NC. Days turned into weeks, weeks into months and I was not able to make the trip. Then two weeks ago, I gathered a team, booked an AirBnB and the trip was planned for this week. We did not know Hurricane Helene was coming, nor we were going to let it stop what God had called us to do, we knew being there before Rosh Hashannah was important, so we took the South route through Atlanta and up to Charlotte. It took longer than planned due to traffic to arrive, but we made it safe and sound.

On Wednesday morning, the first morning I was in a new city, while in prayer the Lord spoke to me and said, “You are here to dethrone one queen and enthrone another one.” Charlotte is called Queen City and there are crowns all over the place in that city. I went in the house to my room and began reading Esther 1. The Lord continued by saying, “You are dethroning the spirit of Vashti, who disobeys the kings commands and enthroning the spirit of Esther who will obey the kings commands.”

We learned that Queen Charlotte was at the airport, so we went to the airport and found out where she is located is called the Queen’s court. So we marched right into her court, up to her statue, which was declaring visually, heaven is my throne and earth is my footstool, and we dethroned her with our words right there in the airport and then declared the enthroning of the spirit of Esther over this city and our nation. No fireworks, nothing fancy, just a decree of dethroning and a decree of enthroning.

This was the first of multiple legs of this prophetic adventure. We know this is what the Lord said to do, and that it is a word for our nation. The spirt of Vashti has been dethroned from our land and the spirit of Esther has been enthroned. The king is Jesus and the queen is the Ecclessia, who will obey her king. Everything is going to change in the church for a new queen has been enthroned and an old queen has been dethroned. This is only the beginning of many things that happened on this trip to Charlotte, NC.
