11-04-2025 PART 2: Wake Up, Stay Ready God’s Timing and Our Trust

Section 1

The conversation opens with Noah calling into the show to thank everyone for their prayers. He shares that, by God’s grace, his long-standing skin condition has been subdued, though he is now facing another trial—unemployment lasting eighteen months. David responds with empathy and biblical encouragement, reminding Noah and the audience that God has not forgotten him. Even in delay or hardship, Proverbs 3:5–6 assures believers to “trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.” From a human viewpoint, the waiting feels painful and confusing, but from God’s perspective, it is purposeful molding—His way of preparing us for the next chapter.

Section 2

Noah acknowledges that spiritual growth often comes through hardship and admits his frustration at waiting for God’s timing. David draws a parallel from 1 Samuel, where Saul went searching for lost donkeys while God was simultaneously sending Israel its first king. What looks like a random struggle on earth may be a divine setup from heaven. David emphasizes identity—that we are not defined by what we do, but by whose we are: children of the Most High God. The temptation to equate worth with work or circumstance is strong, but faith calls us to see beyond the immediate. Together, they underline that complaining accomplishes nothing; instead, prayer, gratitude, and perspective keep faith alive in the waiting.

Section 3

The segment closes with David reading Romans 13:11, urging believers to “wake up, for the coming of our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed.” He explains that time is running out to witness, pray, and live rightly. Regardless of differing end-times views, one truth stands: Jesus is coming soon, and each day brings us closer. The call is not to fear but to readiness—to live wisely, faithfully, and courageously. David reminds listeners that God delays not out of neglect but out of mercy, giving more people time to be reached. Until that final moment, the mission remains clear: stay alert, stay faithful, and keep shining for 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.
