Week 3 – Return to Me
DIGITAL BULLETIN 15 January 2022
In this message, Pastor Brad begins the @EagleLifeChurch series “Return to Me” from the last book of the Old Testament. In this series, you will start 2023 with faith to return to God in love, worship, faith, family, humility, justice, and blessing.
In this sermon, you will learn the way to return to God after you have “turned away.” You will discover the path of God’s Word that leads from stumbling and curses, corruption and crap, to a life of peace and uprightness, instruction and knowledge.
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)

The Way of God’s Word
SCRIPTURE: Malachi 2:1-9; Luke 2:19: 1 Corinthians 9:2; Ephesians 3:14-19; Luke 6:45; 1 Peter 2:5; 2 Kings 12:2; Proverbs 15:7; Proverbs 10:21; James 3:5-10, Psalm 19:14; Psalm 119:9-16; John 14:5; John 1:1-3,14 (ESV)
And now, O priests, this command is for you. 2 If you will not listen, if you will not take it to heart to give honor to my name, says the Lord of hosts, then I will send the curse upon you and I will curse your blessings. Indeed, I have already cursed them, because you do not lay it to heart. 3 Behold, I will rebuke your offspring, and spread dung on your faces, the dung of your offerings, and you shall be taken away with it. 4 So shall you know that I have sent this command to you, that my covenant with Levi may stand, says the Lord of hosts. 5 My covenant with him was one of life and peace, and I gave them to him. It was a covenant of fear, and he feared me. He stood in awe of my name.
Malachi 2:1-5 (ESV)
- TAKE God’s Word to HEART
- SPEAK God’s Word from Your MOUTH
- WALK in the Way of God’s Word
True instruction was in his mouth, and no wrong was found on his lips. He walked with me in peace and uprightness, and he turned many from iniquity. 7 For the lips of a priest should guard knowledge, and people should seek instruction from his mouth, for he is the messenger of the Lord of hosts. 8 But you have turned aside from the way. You have caused many to stumble by your instruction. You have corrupted the covenant of Levi, says the Lord of hosts, 9 and so I make you despised and abased before all the people, inasmuch as you do not keep my ways but show partiality in your instruction.
Malachi 2:6-9 (ESV)
