08-22-2025 PART 2: When God’s Hand Guides Every Detail

Section 1

Joanne calls in joyfully, fresh from the hospital, eager to give both a trivia answer and a testimony. She nails the trivia—Elisha received a double portion of Elijah’s spirit—and celebrates God’s miracles through both prophets. Then, shifting to personal life, she shares about her husband Sam. What was supposed to be a simple cardioversion for AFib became something far more serious. By God’s mercy, the doctor caught signs of severe congestive heart failure just in time. Sam was placed in ICU, given oxygen and a BiPAP machine, and treated with Lasix to reduce fluid buildup. In only 24 hours, his condition and color improved dramatically, and Joanne saw God’s hand clearly in both the timing and the care. She urged listeners to honor their bodies as God’s temples and rejoiced that the Lord had spared Sam’s life.

Section 2

David responded with heartfelt gratitude, leading the audience in a prayer of praise. He thanked God for orchestrating every detail, for sustaining Joanne’s watchfulness, and for intervening through skilled doctors. The prayer also lifted up Sam—not just for his physical healing but for spiritual awakening, that he might grasp God’s love in a fresh, undeniable way. David prayed wisdom over Joanne, that she would know how to walk with strength, patience, and prayerful discernment through this trial. The moment highlighted not only God’s healing power but also His purpose in turning crisis into testimony. Joanne, deeply touched, affirmed the encouragement she received from the show and its listeners, blessing David in return for his faithful ministry.

Section 3

Following the call, David shared a teaching he titled Trust Fail from Luke 18:9. He explained that Jesus’ parable confronted people who trusted in their own righteousness while despising others. Such self-trust, David taught, is not true righteousness but prideful deception. Genuine righteousness is never about elevating oneself above others—it’s about humility before God. Only the Lord can judge hearts; only He has full knowledge. When we lean on self-confidence, we fail, but when we lean on the everlasting arms, we stand secure. David urged believers to avoid the trap of thinking their “goodness” justifies mistreating others. Instead, he reminded listeners that even strong Christians must guard against self-reliance, continually trusting God’s grace rather than their own merit.
