Week 6 – Return to Me
DIGITAL BULLETIN 05 February 2023, 10:30 a.m.
In this message, Pastor Brad Murphy continues the @EagleLifeChurch series “Return to Me” from the last book of the Old Testament, Malachi. In this series, you will start 2023 with faith to return to God in love, worship, faith, family, humility, justice, and blessing.
You will dive deeper into God’s response to suffering and the prosperity of evil. We will learn to embrace our call to be his agent of justice to the nations and return the blessing God has given
us!
Join us as we return to God and pray for an awakening in our generation.
WORSHIP BY GIVING“From the days of your fathers you have turned aside from my statutes and have not kept them. Return to me, and I will return to you, says the Lord of hosts. But you say, ‘How shall we return?’”
Malachi 3:7 (ESV, emphasis added)

SCRIPTURE: Malachi 3:5-18; Leviticus 19:13; Deuteronomy 24:14-15, 19-22, 27:19; James 1:27, 5:4; Exodus 22:22-24; 1 Corinthians 3:11-15; 2 Corinthians 9:6-15; Philippians 4:14-19; Acts 4:31-35; Matthew 25:31-46
“Behold, I send my messenger, and he will prepare the way before me. And the Lord whom you seek will suddenly come to his temple; and the messenger of the covenant in whom you delight, behold, he is coming, says the Lord of hosts. 2 But who can endure the day of his coming, and who can stand when he appears? For he is like a refiner’s fire and like fullers’ soap. 3 He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver, and he will purify the sons of Levi and refine them like gold and silver, and they will bring offerings in righteousness to the Lord. 4 Then the offering of Judah and Jerusalem will be pleasing to the Lord as in the days of old and as in former years.
5 “Then I will draw near to you for judgment. I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, against the adulterers, against those who swear falsely, against those who oppress the hired worker in his wages, the widow and the fatherless, against those who thrust aside the sojourner, and do not fear me, says the Lord of hosts.
Malachi 3:1-5 (ESV)
- You are an Agent of God’s SOCIAL Justice
- You are an Agent of God’s ECONOMIC Justice
- You are an Agent of God’s SPIRITUAL Justice
Then those who feared the LORD spoke with one another. The LORD paid attention and heard them, and a book of remembrance was written before him of those who feared the LORD and esteemed his name. 17 “They shall be mine, says the LORD of hosts, in the day when I make up my treasured possession, and I will spare them as a man spares his son who serves him. 18 Then once more you shall see the distinction between the righteous and the wicked, between one who serves God and one who does not serve him.
Malachi 3:16-18 (ESV)
