10-13-2025 PART 1: Touched by the Hand of God

Section 1

The first part of today’s reflection centers on heartfelt prayer. The focus begins with petitions for Roslyn and Robert in Houston, as Roslyn continues her chemotherapy. The prayer moves beyond personal concern into a spirit of compassion for the elderly who are struggling physically and financially. It then turns toward intercession for Israel and the United States, asking for God’s protection, mercy, and renewal. The prayer acknowledges that while some people misunderstand or even resent moments of peace and restoration, believers must remain thankful and vigilant. It concludes by invoking God’s wisdom for doctors, provision for the weary, and national repentance for America—ending with an earnest plea for divine favor in Jesus’ name.

Section 2

The teaching portion begins with a personal reflection on enduring seasons of difficulty and loss. The writer shares his own experiences of grief, lingering challenges, and daily reliance on prayer. Despite moments of fatigue and emotional strain, the pursuit of God’s presence continues to be the source of peace and focus. Through multiple passages of Scripture—spanning Matthew, Titus, Acts, Jeremiah, and 1 Kings—the reader is reminded that immersion in God’s Word calms the mind and redirects attention from anxiety to revelation. The story from Matthew 17, describing the Mount of Transfiguration, becomes the foundation of the teaching: when the disciples saw Jesus glorified alongside Moses and Elijah, the voice from heaven declared, “This is my beloved Son; hear Him.” That moment re-centered their hearts on the supremacy of Jesus over all law and prophecy.

Section 3

The teaching concludes by emphasizing the tender intimacy between Jesus and His followers. After the divine voice ceased, Scripture records that “they saw only Jesus,” and He touched them. That simple act symbolizes the heart of Christian relationship—Jesus not only speaks truth but reaches out personally. The message urges believers to seek that same closeness: not just to know about Christ, but to know Him deeply, to feel His nearness, and to be transformed by His touch. True faith is alive, relational, and rooted in the presence of the living Savior. As the reflection closes, it calls the reader to desire more of Him, to let their soul thirst as David’s did for the living God, and to rest in the security of being His sheep under the care of the Good Shepherd.

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.
