God's people reject the word of his prophets and obey the word of false prophets. Depression is to those who plot evil. The Lord said he is planning his disaster his people have risen up like the enemy.

Talks first about plotting against someone or something and I know that i am guilt of doing this and thinking about what i want to do; laying awake at night or thinking about it during class or something. Many people try to plot ways to ruin the lives of others. I can't help but think right now with the stuff going on with Gabby Douglass and even a comparison picture of Katie Lediky and all. Its cuz people are jealous of them or that they just don't feel good its so sad how much time people devote to ruining others peoples lives. Think about it and school how much time goes into this? The schemes of man to tear people down!!! You guys have any examples of this We can sometime be so oblivious to what could happen as the don't think something this horrific would happen to Israel, right why would it? ALot of people don't want to face up to what could happen for their sins and all and we see that here. There are usually warnings by actions or by parents and others but we often times ignore them. Thought even though he wants to tear it down and destroy it the best thing about our GOD (that there is none like him ) but he always always offers hope and restoration to those that seek it! Thank you for his Grace and pray that as your go throughout your day today that you think about these things.

An example of people deliberately breaking someone down would be, at school, if someone offends someone the person that was offended is 3 times more likely to exaggerate every move they make into a terrible person. God's punishments are never unfair whatever you did in your life without being saved will be paid back. I like verse 11 as you said Aaron the people are holding on to false truths because they do not want to change and for a person that does not want to change the truth is very scary. Thank God for his grace on you because you believe.

The first section of this chapter talks about how the God dislikes people who plot evil against one another, people who lie in bed and think about doing bad things against others. Aaron, I think the gabby Douglas example is a good example of people being mean to each other and plotting to do evil things against each other. Social media these days can be great but can also be used for evil and hurtfulness. We have to be careful on the words that we say and post.
The second part of the chapter, Micah warns the people about false prophets. People that will say what ever the people want to hear like "you will have plenty wine and beer". We have to be careful about who we listen to and ate they speaking for themselves or are they speaking for God
In the end, God will win. And that is what Micah says at the end of the chapter.
