Micah 2:1-2
"Yo! Listen up!" _ Micah is warning those people in positions of power. They are taking advantage of the "little people", the folk they consider below them and God aint too happy (again!).
Back-stabbing and jealousy were happening left, right and center. Check out 1Kings 21:1-15 for an example. Isreal's very own King Ahab was sulking cuz he couldnt have what he wanted, Naboth's vinyard. So, his wife (Jezebel) arranged for Naboth to be killed, in order to gain posession of the vinyard for Ahab.
It was countless unnecessary acts of
violence and greed that got God so angry.
Micah also speaks against people who planned evil deeds at night and got up mega early to do them.
I think we need to be careful that when we lie down to sleep at night that we aint stewing over things that have happend in the daytime. It cant be healthy to keep all these feelings inside.
Evil thoughts are surely followed by evil deeds as reliably as night follows day.
Love you x
