In Return to Me, Dr. Miguel Núñez presents how throughout redemptive history God's people have rebelled against the very God who has brought them freedom, and how God, in the midst of His people's unfaithfulness, has remained faithful and made every effort to call His people back to His presence.
Since God formed the nation of Israel thousands of years ago, the tendency of God's people has been to repeatedly turn away from their Creator and Redeemer and turn back to their wicked ways. On the other hand, it has always been God's desire to call His people back to Him, recognizing that, separated from Him, they will reap great and destructive consequences; and only in closeness to Him can they experience His blessings.
Each of the chapters of this book considers different moments in redemptive history where God's people had fallen away and where God called them back into His presence.
“Return to me” is a phrase that appears in Zechariah 1:3 where God says the following: “Therefore say to them, 'Thus says the LORD of hosts, “Return to Me,” declares the LORD of hosts, “and I will return to you,” says the LORD of hosts...” In this verse we see the heart of a God who desires to commune with His people so that He can instruct, direct, protect, and bless them.
