He’s Taking Out the Trash

In Tim Sheets / Rachel Shafer’s new book Glory River, Tim recounts a powerful vision from 2021 concerning a spiritual tsunami, a landscape-changing move of God impacting America. Here is a portion of the vision and Tim’s comments:

The Sound of the Lion King’s Roar

I began to hear, in the Spirit realm, the deep-throated roar of a lion king. When a lion king roars, the sound vibrates through the ground. We’re told the roar can be heard up to two miles away. He roars to gather his pride (family group), and he roars to answer an enemy’s intrusion. If another lion king comes into his territory, he will roar. In the mornings, especially, and also late into the evening, he will also roar. Why? Because he’s declaring ownership of his territory.

I knew in this vision that our lion king, King Jesus, was roaring in proclamation, “This is My world. This is My territory. I will answer the intrusion. I will gather My pride. I will gather My Ekklesia. I will gather My willing ones for battle. America is My nation. It’s Mine, it’s Mine, it’s Mine. I birthed it, and I made covenant with it. I will not lose it, and I will not back down. I will battle for this nation. I will anoint My Ekklesia for new battles, and I’m going to anoint them to win the old battles. I will not lose this.”

The Spirit’s Decree

At that point in the vision, I said, “Holy Spirit, give me a decree concerning this roar.” Most often, when I hear something like this, I form a faith decree and begin to decree it myself. But for whatever reason, I didn’t this time.

I said, “Holy Spirit, You make the decree, and I’ll just recite it. You decree something.” Well, He did decree, and it went all through me. I heard Him decree, “HELL DOESN’T STAND A CHANCE!” I believe that and had it printed on hundreds of wristbands for us to wear as a reminder. I mean, wow! Hell doesn’t have a chance!

We need to move forward with the understanding that our God is big enough to handle whatever comes next. Whether it’s an antichrist government, or liberal progressive woke-ism seeking to displace our God—whatever it is, it doesn’t matter, and it doesn’t have a chance.

The Cleansing Wave

It was at this point in the vision that I saw the wave: a huge wave, building in intensity, far out in the ocean. I was on the shoreline, looking out, and could see that something was building offshore. The beach I was standing on was not a pristine beach you might see. It was a garbage dump, trashed with junk and debris everywhere!

I looked out over the shoreline again and saw the rising water moving our way. It kept coming and coming, growing and growing, building and building. This continued until, finally, it became a gigantic wave that accelerated and crashed the shoreline. As it then receded, it dragged all the debris, trash piles, and garbage back out in the undertow.

What was left behind was now an immaculate beach, clean and beautiful. And I knew a huge wave of the Holy Spirit was building, and, at this point, few would even notice. It’s so far off, and they aren’t paying attention. But it’s been building and building, and like a train that comes over the side of a mountain and starts downhill, it’s gaining momentum and will not stop.

It will crash upon abominations, demonic debris, and defilement in our land. The undertow of this huge wave will drag the demonic debris to sea, destroying it. The King is rising through His church and declares that HELL DOESN’T HAVE A CHANCE! Nothing is going to stop this tsunami wave. It’s going to cause worldwide reformation and reset. Hell will not prevail.

I then began to see, as if in a panoramic view, a zooming in on this vision of what was happening. I saw that the enemy had built his strongholds on sand. Well, of course they were. In the eyes of our God, the forever loser has built sand castles. They look good. They look impressive until the waves come, but then the fall will be great.

I knew that a powerful wave of Holy Spirit was building a tidal wave of glory, power, miracles, and angel armies, rising like a Holy Spirit tsunami that will not be stopped.

It was at that point Holy Spirit reminded me of a word I’ve released before, and it is one of the boldest things that He has ever spoken to me. I know this word is in its moment. He said, with a passion that stirs me to this day, “I will not be God emeritus to this nation.” He meant it then, and He means it now. He continued:

“I will not be God emeritus. Don’t be shaken, but I won’t be God emeritus. I will not be America’s retired God. I will not be an honorary God. I won’t be just a figurehead God. I will not be a bystander.”

Hell is hoping God will be a bystander, but He said in Hebrews 12:28 (NLT), “Since we are receiving a Kingdom that is unshakable, let us be thankful and please God by worshiping Him with holy fear and awe.”

God continued to speak to me: “I will not be a bystander, holding a title position with no active role. I will not be supplanted by Baal, acknowledged as present, but irrelevant…not listened to…no ruling capacity. I will not stand down from my position.”

God is about to take out the garbage. He’s going to take out the trash. A God tsunami is coming. For some it will be painful. It has to be a deep cleansing because the iniquity is entrenched. But what seems bitter will become sweet. That’s His promise. His tsunami will clear the way for revival waves and the river of God.

Pray with me:

Father, when we hear prophetic words and visions, we do not treat them as bystanders. They are not spiritual entertainment; they are marching orders, our marching orders. They are prayer assignments.

So we ask that Your tsunami-wave continues to cleanse and beautify this nation. Release the sound, the roar of the Lion King that causes the powers of darkness in the nation to become dislodged. Advance Your unshakable Kingdom and release Your Glory River, bringing life and healing wherever it flows.

And Lord, we declare that You will not be treated as a distant deity, as God-emeritus of America. You are Lord. You are King. You are the life-giving Ruler of heaven and earth, and this nation will once again trust in You. In Your name we pray, amen.
