100 Days in Heaven

100 Days in Heaven

by James Durham
We are living under an open Heaven and the Lord has made it a two way path. In one direction, He is pouring out abundant blessings, provisions, and spiritual gifts to equip the saints in these last days. Are you ready to receive what He is pouring out? The other direction of flow is that He is inviting more and more people to visit in the Third Heaven to be trained and equipped for ministry in the coming season. Are you ready to be invited up into heavenly places? "Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need." (Hebrews 4:16) James Durham: After serving as a pastor for more than 45 years, including 13 years as a pastor and church planter and almost 30 years as an active duty army Chaplain, James retired from the military at the rank of Colonel. In 2010, James and his wife, Gloria, retired from the pastoral ministry and moved to Columbia, South Carolina in order to write, teach seminars around the world, and mentor many spiritual sons and daughters. James is a graduate of Oklahoma State University with a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology; Perkins School of Theology, Southern Methodist University, Dallas, Texas with a Master's degree in Theology.

Book Quotes
Teaching what Jesus commanded is something we have not always done well. In fact, I have asked many people in ministry what Jesus commanded, and few have ever answered beyond love of God and neighbor. However, Jesus commanded many things as recorded in the four gospels (i.e. “Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out demons. Freely you have received, freely give.” – Matthew 10:8) Peter says that the Holy Spirit is given to those who obey. “And we are His witnesses to these things, and so also is the Holy Spirit whom God has given to those who obey Him.” (Acts 5:32) If we desire to operate in the gifts and power of the Holy Spirit, we must be obedient to the commands of the Lord. Virtually all of God’s promises are connected to obedience. John connects answered prayer to obedience and then makes it clear that we are not in Him, or He in us unless we obey His commands. “Dear friends, if our hearts do not condemn us, we have confidence before God and receive from him anything we ask, because we obey his commands and do what pleases him. And this is his command: to believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and to love one another as he commanded us. Those who obey his commands live in him, and he in them. And this is how we know that he lives in us: We know it by the Spirit he gave us.” (1 John 3:21-24, NIV) We have taught freedom from “the Law” so zealously, that an entire generation has believed that obedience is somewhat optional, and God will love us and bless us whether we obey or not. This is not a Biblical concept. It is true that we do not win our salvation through obedience or good works. However, if we want to stay in the blessing flow – if we want the prayer of faith to be answered – if we want to move in the gifts of the Spirit – if we want the favor of God, we must live in obedience to the commands of Christ.
