06-19-25 part 2: The Unseen Presence of God and the Power of Remembering

Section 1

The broadcast opened with a reading from Psalm 139, emphasizing the ever-present nature of God. David highlighted how the Psalm affirms that there is no place we can go where God is not already there. The message wasn’t just poetic—it was practical and personal. This truth speaks to anyone who has felt isolated or unnoticed. God is not distant. He is near in every moment, whether in the highest heights or the lowest depths. David made it clear: we are fully known, fully seen, and fully surrounded by God.

Section 2

From there, the show turned toward a mix of prayer and reflection, with David taking a moment to speak directly to those feeling overwhelmed. He talked about the exhaustion that can come from doing good, even when no one seems to notice. But God notices. David reminded listeners that God’s presence doesn’t depend on our feelings, and His faithfulness is not tied to our strength. He encouraged his audience to lean into the Lord even when the journey feels thankless. Faith, he emphasized, is not a performance—it’s a relationship.

Section 3

Next, David brought listeners back to the importance of remembering God’s previous faithfulness. Just as Israel was told to build memorial stones to recall God's acts, we are called to remember what He has done in our lives. Whether it’s healing, provision, or rescue from despair, the past is filled with signposts of His grace. David shared that revisiting those moments strengthens trust in God's current and future promises. It also gives language to the discouraged, reminding them that God’s track record is not just history—it’s personal and ongoing.

Section 4

As the teaching deepened, David pointed out how critical it is to know that we are never truly alone. While we might feel isolated, especially when no one understands what we’re going through, God remains right beside us. The reminder wasn’t sugarcoated. Life is hard, and struggles can be intense, but God’s nearness is not dependent on circumstances. The powerful declaration was made: "You are not hidden from God, and your struggle is not invisible to Him." The encouragement wasn’t just general—it was a lifeline to those suffering in silence.

Section 5

The broadcast closed on a strong note of reassurance and prayer. David led listeners in turning their hearts to God with full transparency, offering up burdens instead of trying to carry them alone. He emphasized the invitation from God to come honestly, without pretense, and receive comfort. This final word was filled with warmth and pastoral care: You don’t need to have everything figured out. You just need to bring yourself to the One who already knows and already cares. God is already there—before, during, and after every step.

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.
