Stephen Manhanga introducing Scott Marques
It was wonderful having Scott Marques, Apostolic leader of the Newfrontier churches in Zimbabwe, come and share God’s word at Crossroads.
Scott started by sharing about himself and his family life of being married to Claire and having 2 children. He then went on to encourage the church to make right decisions in marriage and to marry for life. He said we can enjoy life if we treasure God.
2 Peter 1:2 – 3 “Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord, as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue.” God has given to us everything we need for life. We think others have a better chance for life than ourselves or that it’s easier for others but God has given to us the same rain, same body and everything for life and godliness. God is interested in my soul. He is interested in the decisions I make. The decision for righteousness is not easy for some. What God wants of all of us is the same.

Scott preaching at Crossroads
Our lives are not about money or politics but about God. We need to apply the word of God to our lives. Life is reading God’s word and by the power of the Holy Spirit, living His word. Jesus died so that we could be free forever – free to live as He designed us to.
1. Do you know Jesus? Have you received Him as your savior?
2. If you have, live a life in a way that glorifies Him in everything we do.
When we know the life of Jesus, we may have many challenges: hunger, poverty, imprisonment but, no one can take Jesus away from me.
