06-12-2026 PART 3: Open Their Eyes

Section 1

Reflecting on Jamie’s powerful testimony, Dr. Dave reminds listeners that God’s love is deeply personal while remaining equally available to every believer. Drawing from the book of Revelation and other passages, he emphasizes that each Christian enjoys a unique relationship with the Lord, yet no one occupies a higher position of favor than another. Jamie’s experience serves as a vivid example of what happens when someone cries out to God in faith and depends on His guidance during a moment of crisis. The lesson encourages believers to recognize that the same God who directed and helped her remains ready to hear and respond to His people today. Christianity is not a cold religious system but a living relationship with the living God.

Section 2

Moving from testimony to application, Dr. Dave challenges the idea that the Christian life should ever become dull or routine. Walking with God involves continual growth, fresh lessons, spiritual warfare, answered prayers, unexpected opportunities, and ongoing dependence upon the Lord. Every day presents another opportunity to learn, trust, serve, and experience God’s faithfulness in new ways. Rather than blaming God when faith feels stagnant, believers are encouraged to examine whether they have settled into spiritual habits that leave little room for expectancy. The teaching highlights the truth that God continually makes all things new and invites His people into an active, vibrant relationship with Him.

Section 3

Turning to Acts 26, the focus shifts to Jesus’ commission to Saul, later known as the apostle Paul, to open people’s eyes and lead them from darkness to light. Dr. Dave applies this passage directly to praying for loved ones who do not yet know Christ. Whether the concern involves children, parents, siblings, friends, former spouses, or others who have drifted away from faith, believers are called to stand in the gap and pray that their eyes will be opened to spiritual truth. The final encouragement urges listeners never to surrender hope. God is able to reach people in ways no one else can, and persistent prayer may become part of the process that leads someone from the power of darkness into forgiveness, salvation, and an eternal inheritance through faith in Jesus Christ.

David Spoon

David Spoon was born and raised in a Jewish home in Detroit, Michigan. He attended a private Hebrew school called Hillel Hebrew Academy. David was bar mitzvah-ed at the age of thirteen. Not long after, he was involved in drug abuse and trafficking. After hearing the Gospel for the first time at age seventeen, David accepted Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior. A few months later, David had a dramatic experience with God. Immediately set free from years of excessive drug use, he committed himself to ministry and to furthering the Kingdom of God.

He attended Arizona Bible College, Northern Arizona University, and Life Pacific College, graduating summa-cum-laude in their Ministry and Leadership program. He also graduated with honors from Regent University with a master’s degree in Theological Studies and earned his Doctor of Ministry degree in Strategic Christian Ministry at Liberty University.

He is one of a few individuals holding ministerial ordinations from three separate denominations: Heritage Free Baptist Organization, 1981; Independent Pentecostal Ministers Association, 1985; and Vineyard Valley Association, 1988. He was also the Chaplain for the Flagstaff Police Department. In addition, David was the senior pastor of Vineyard Christian Fellowship of Flagstaff.

In addition, David started and co-hosted two different live Christian call-in radio talk shows. He hosted the very popular radio show “The David Spoon Experience” on KPRZ 1210 and a show called “To Know Him,” which aired on 88.9 on the F.M. dial-in Temecula, California at 1:00 p.m., Monday through Fridays. He was also the Director of Local Ministry for Salem Media Group in San Diego, California.

David is married to his best friend, Noelle. He has three children and seven grandchildren, plus their two dogs named Levi and Bert. On March 18th, 2019, he started “The David Spoon Experience” in Texas and is growing with his audience of awesome believers and non-believers alike.

He is the President of He Must Increase Ministry, a 501c3 ministry, and is hosting (again) the live daily radio show “The David Spoon Experience” with DJR Broadcasting in KAAM, on the 770 A.M. radio dial. The show is also on various apps and the Internet.

David is a Jewish-Christian, Bapti-Costal, Cal-Minian, Manifold Millennialist.
