Chris.
God cannot stand injustice. When ever injustice is suffered by His People God will speak into that situation. Maybe, but not frequently, it is a form of persecution through which God keeps His Hand on His People. Normally, when God sees that His People are suffering from injustice, He will intervene in some way, rescue His People and be Glorified in what He does.
