REVIEW OF FOUR BOOKS WRITTEN BY PROPHET BAPTIST JIDE, FOUNDER, GOD-FATHER AND FAMILY CHURCH
Ladies and gentlemen, esteemed ministers of the Gospel, distinguished scholars of the Word, and fellow seekers of divine truth, it is both an honour and a privilege to review these four profound spiritual works written by Prophet Baptist Jide, the founder of God-Father and Family Church.
These books— Living in the Spirit, All Things Belong to the Saints, Christ the Spirit of Reality, and Spiritual Health & Healing —are remarkable theological expositions that delve deeply into the mysteries of faith, the supernatural realm, and the divine life of the believer. Each of the books is deeply rooted in scriptural revelation, offering transformative insights for the spiritual journey.
The hallmark of these works is their extensive use of biblical references, solid doctrinal foundation, and emphasis on the reality of the Spirit realm. The author does not merely theorize but unveils deep mysteries of the Kingdom with practical applications for every believer.
Let us explore each of these books with detailed analysis, highlighting their core messages, doctrinal depth, and scriptural validity.
BOOK ONE: LIVING IN THE SPIRIT (388 Pages) (38 chapters)
The first book, Living in the Spirit, is a profound treatise on walking in the Spirit and experiencing the fullness of God’s presence. The book follows a progressive pattern, moving from foundational Christian doctrines to deeper realities of the Spirit realm.
Key Themes and Scriptural References:
- Deep Gratitude (Chapter One)
The book begins with an emphasis on gratitude, which aligns with 1 Thessalonians 5:18—”In everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.” Prophet Jide stresses that thanksgiving is a spiritual key that unlocks divine presence. - Life in the Spirit (Chapters Five and Six)
The author explores the importance of living by the Spirit, citing Romans 8:14—”For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.” He warns against carnality and emphasizes the necessity of Spirit-consciousness (Galatians 5:16). - The Spirit and the Spirit Realm (Chapters Eleven & Twelve)
The book examines the unseen dimension of existence, aligning with Ephesians 6:12—”For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” - The Works of Faith (Chapters Twenty & Twenty-One)
Prophet Jide provides a compelling case for faith as an active force, drawing from Hebrews 11:1—”Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” - The Realm of Praise and Thanksgiving (Chapter Twenty-Three)
The author emphasizes that true worship must be Spirit-led, referencing John 4:24—”God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.”
This book is a spiritual compass for believers seeking to transcend the ordinary Christian life and walk in supernatural dominion.
BOOK TWO: ALL THINGS BELONG TO THE SAINTS (314 Pages) (33 chapters)
The second book is a faith-filled declaration of the believer’s inheritance in Christ. Prophet Jide establishes the biblical truth that everything God owns belongs to His children.
Key Themes and Scriptural References:
- All Things Belong to You (Chapter One)
The book opens with 1 Corinthians 3:21-23—”Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are yours; Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all are yours; And ye are Christ’s; and Christ is God’s.” The author encourages believers to take possession of their divine inheritance. - The Best Is Yet to Come (Chapters Five & Six)
This theme echoes Jeremiah 29:11, where God promises a future of hope and prosperity. The author teaches that faith propels believers into their glorious destinies. - The Death of Death (Chapters Eleven to Thirteen)
Prophet Jide reveals the victory of Christ over death, citing 1 Corinthians 15:55-57—”O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.” - The Ever-Increasing Glory (Chapters Seventeen to Twenty-Seven)
The author highlights 2 Corinthians 3:18—”But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.” He teaches that believers move from one level of glory to another.
BOOK THREE: CHRIST THE SPIRIT OF REALITY (169 Pages) (22 chapters)
This book presents Christ as the ultimate reality, focusing on His divinity, resurrection power, and indwelling presence.
Key Themes and Scriptural References:
- The Mystery of the Indwelling Spirit (Chapters Nine to Fifteen)
The book aligns with Colossians 1:27—”Christ in you, the hope of glory.” Prophet Jide unpacks the reality of union with Christ. - Faith Is Confessing the Word (Chapter Twenty-Two)
The principle of faith confession is supported by Romans 10:10—”For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.”
BOOK FOUR: SPIRITUAL HEALTH & HEALING (184 Pages) (26 chapters)
This book is a divine health manual, blending theology with practical insights on healing.
Key Themes and Scriptural References:
- The Curse and Our Redemption (Chapter One)
The book references Galatians 3:13—”Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us.”
- Breaking Free from the Flesh (Chapter Nine)
The book explains Romans 8:6—”To be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.”
- The Prophetic Ministry of Daniel (Chapter Twenty-Four)
Prophet Jide highlights the Book of Daniel, showing how Daniel exemplified faith, integrity, and wisdom. The study of Daniel is significant in understanding spiritual health and resilience.
However, before I conclude, you may want to ask, how do the four books relate to one another, and is there a particular order in which they should be read? The books are related in that they all explore themes of spiritual growth and development, and they can be read in any order. However, I would recommend starting with “Living in the Spirit”, which provides a comprehensive introduction to the author’s spiritual principles and practices. From there, readers can move on to “All Things Belong to the Saints” and then ,”Christ the Spirit of Reality” and of course, “Spiritual Health & Healing” which offers a deeper and more personal exploration of spiritual themes.
And again ,you may also want to ask, what is the most important message or theme that emerges from these books? I think the most important message or theme that emerges from these books is the idea that our lives are not our own, but are instead a gift from God. The author encourages readers to surrender their lives to God and to trust in His goodness and providence, and this theme is echoed throughout the books. It is a powerful reminder that our lives are not our own, but are instead a stewardship that has been entrusted to us by God
CONCLUSION: THE IMPACT OF PROPHET BAPTIST JIDE’S TEACHINGS
Prophet Baptist Jide’s writings are spiritually revolutionary, providing a clear roadmap for believers seeking deeper dimensions of God’s power.All these four books authored by him are marked by:
Doctrinal soundness (firm biblical foundation)
Spiritual depth (revelatory teachings)
Practical applications (guidance for everyday Christian living)
His emphasis on the Book of Daniel is particularly insightful, encouraging believers to embrace wisdom, prophetic insight, and resilience in a fallen world.
I highly recommend these books for every believer, theologian, and spiritual leader seeking to walk in the fullness of God’s kingdom realities. May we live in the Spirit, possess our divine inheritance, embrace Christ as our ultimate reality, and walk in divine health and healing!
Thank you.
