Moscow, Idaho, a picturesque college town known for its rolling Palouse Hills and vibrant arts scene, was about to witness an extraordinary evening. Nestled between the University of Idaho and Pullman, Washington, the town was alive with its usual hum of student activities, cozy cafés, and lively cultural events. But on this particular evening, all attention was drawn to a small gathering at a historic church in Downtown Moscow, where a woman named Charlotte was about to lead a healing meeting unlike any the town had seen before.

As the sun set over Moscow, the faithful gathered inside the old church. The air was thick with anticipation as Charlotte, a woman of unwavering faith, stepped onto the platform. The attendees, some from as far as Lewiston and Coeur d’Alene, filled the pews, eager to witness what God would do that night.

Charlotte’s voice rang out, full of conviction. “Tonight, we claim healing in Jesus’ Name! Whatever affliction you carry, let it be lifted tonight!” The crowd murmured in agreement, their faith tangible in the room. Among them was a woman named Margaret, whose spine had been stiffened by years of chronic pain. She had come seeking a miracle.

Charlotte pointed to Margaret and called her forward. The woman hesitated for a moment before making her way down the aisle. The wooden floor creaked beneath her slow, careful steps. Charlotte met her at the altar, placing a hand on her back. “Satan, I told you to leave this body! Out you go in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ!” she commanded.

A hushed silence filled the room as Margaret, trembling, was instructed to bend down and touch her toes. A gasp echoed through the hall as she found herself suddenly free of pain. The stiffness that had plagued her for years was gone. She bent again, then again, the joy on her face evident to all.

Tears streamed down the faces of onlookers. The miracle had set the tone for the night. Charlotte turned to the congregation. “Do you see? When we stand in faith, the power of God moves! We must believe in our authority and exercise it with boldness.”

Chapter 2: The Authority of Faith

As the night continued, more came forward for healing. A young man suffering from severe migraines testified that, after prayer, the pain vanished. An elderly gentleman who had suffered hearing loss in one ear suddenly found his hearing restored. The crowd erupted in praise.

Charlotte reminded them of the Great Commission in Mark 16. “These signs shall follow them that believe! This is not just for the twelve disciples, nor just for the seventy, nor just for the Book of Acts. This promise is for us, right here in Moscow, Idaho!” The congregation cheered, affirming their belief.

She led them in a declaration: “I have power in Jesus’ Name! Sickness and affliction have no place in me!” Voices rose in unison, filling the old church with a resounding faith that echoed beyond its walls.

Charlotte continued, “When you walk through the farmers market on Main Street, when you sip coffee at Bucer’s, when you watch the Vandals play at the Kibbie Dome—remember, you carry the power of God with you! It is not limited to these four walls. It goes with you wherever you go.”

As the meeting drew to a close, Charlotte laid hands on the sick, and one by one, they claimed their healing. The joy in the room was undeniable. Those who had once walked in with burdens now danced with freedom. The people of Moscow had witnessed a night of miracles, a testament to the living power of faith.

As the crowd dispersed into the crisp Idaho night, their voices carried the excitement of what they had just experienced. Charlotte’s message was clear: believe, exercise faith, and walk in divine authority. Moscow, known for its arts and culture, had now become a beacon of faith and miracles.

The historic church’s doors remained open late into the night, as people lingered, sharing testimonies and rejoicing in what God had done. That night, Moscow became more than a college town—it became a place of transformation, where the miraculous met the everyday, and faith turned impossibilities into realities.
