Strong in Adversity
When you put your faith in God’s promise in Psalm 91, you don’t have to fear any pandemic. You can live at peace, without dread of evil, confident that God has delivered you from coronavirus, swine flu and every other plague. God has us covered! He knew thousands of years ago that COVID-19 w ..
Defeat Fear
I like what the Apostle Paul taught about how to act during fearful times. He instructed us to defeat the realm of darkness the moment fear tries to approach by responding with unwavering faith. “Don’t be intimidated by your enemies,” he said. “This will be a sign to them that they are going to ..
Fear or Faith
To walk in God’s power during the world’s COVID-19 scare, you must get rid of fear because fear and faith are opposing spiritual forces. One counteracts the other. Trying to operate in them both at the same time is like trying to get both sweet water and bitter water to come out of the same foun ..

Receive Guidance
People who do not have God's vision are not bothered by their lack of discipline. They have no dream (http://dennisburkeministries.org/books/Dreams-Really-Do-Come-True). But those who, through Jesus Christ, have obtained insight into the mysteries of life choose to walk under the guidance of God ..
Purpose For Life
Proverbs 29:18 says, "Where there is no vision, the people perish." In this scripture, vision takes on two vital aspects. First, it is vision of our redemption. Joshua instilled within God's people the confidence that the Lord would fight for them and deliver them from every enemy. They were ..
From Oppression and Poverty To Power
Through maintaining a deep and intimate (http://dennisburkeministries.org/books/Knowing-God-Intimately) communion with God we have the assurance of victory upon victory. We have the Spirit of God to overcome (http://dennisburkeministries.org/cds/The-Spirit-of-the-Overcomer) any obstacle or chall ..
