Psalm 211

In the scripture Psalm 105 and 106 are sister text with the last verse of 104 being the true beginning of 105. What you have then in style is a praise opening and a praise ending with God’s faithfulness to His promise and a recounting of His mighty works He performed to encourage us to trust His faithfulness in 105. In 106 it starts with praise and ends with praise but the text looks at God’s faithfulness in another light. That being His faithfulness even in the midst of our unfaithfulness. II Timothy 2:13 recounts this thought, “if we are faithless, He remains faithful-for He cannot deny Himself.” I thought I would write a psalm combining these 2 styles to boast of God’s faithfulness in this situation and the preceding history. 211 is this combination.

Blessed be the Lord God
whose word is changeless
and can be trusted
from everlasting to everlasting

You called me before the
foundations of this world
and from the womb
placed courage in me

You made 13 a number
to attach my hope to
you grafted me into Manasseh
and revealed Christ to me at 13

You showed me how you were faithful
throughout history you moved hearts and nations
so that, reluctantly or willingly,
they would perform on your promises

Nowhere can a man say your word has faultered
Nowhere can a man call you a liar
Suddenly and in an instant your delivery came
surprising all the defiants

Men throughout the ages can say their trust is not vanity
God bends low to hear our prayers
and has a mighty right arm to perform
all necessary to justify His renown

Blessed be my Deliverer who has shown my eyes
wherever they should turn His reliability
Though men of ignorance try to strike fear
My heart was made steadfast by your faithful promise

I listened to these men and their golden tongues of reason
for a short season which quickly stole my joy
Even in my faithlessness you were faithful
Though I turned from your promise you did not turn

Men embraced me then as one of them
though my motives were selfish they loved me
a hero without ridicule or fault
judged by an unrighteous standard as righteous

You did not quiet Your voice
but you made it rage within me
The sin that shamed me
still found hope in your steadfast love

Finally you turned my heart from its error
and taught me the faith of Christ
who authored it and finished it in me
by the unwavering trust of your world

Even now as my enemies boast in their false wisdom
and slander the promise of your calling
I find endless strength in your faithfulness
My eyes have seen your goodness in the land of the living

Blessed be He who is unchanging, always the same
He who sent the upright record through all generations
Who sets my feet on the firm foundation
the rock of refuge, the sheltering cloud, the Christ

Glory, honor, and praise fill your temple
they are all justified and deserved
Yada Yada Yada, Hallelujah, Forever and Ever
AMEN!

I have four children,we have been forced too live in a 2 bedroom apt,because of what the dorean group has done to us,not to mention the money lost to the group whice im sure is being used for the doreans defence.We were forced out of a beautiful ranch home on 5acers with a little over 4,000sq ft.Now the apt is a little under 800sq times are hard for us at this point and with my credit after all this process i see it getting no better in the future.Our american dream has turned into a living nightmare.We was told that this process has worked for thousands that there is nothing to worry about,i think the dorean group should of perfected the process before taken any money at all,but this wasnt the case.Im new to this blog it has taken me awhile to read some of the posts on here and im worryed the 85% of the posts on here is all garbage juat a lot of people with nothing better to do but sit on there pc and write stuff.Especially you Mr Mogel I truly hope you sleep well at night.Pic 6 people in a small 2 bedroom apt tryin to sleep its very hard,but we do have a roof over our head thank god and we almost couldnt get that with the foreclosure on my credit need to remind you of excellant credit before all this happen.Mogel sounds like you back this group a 100% Kurt and scott are safe and sound being put in prison and Im most sure they will never get out i dont care what lies you make up,but if i was you i couldnt sleep at all knowing what has happen to all the people that lost their homes.Id always haft to watch my back,cause im sure your being watched infact i know for sure you are.Be carefull my friend and dont want to see anybody physically hurt over this,however im sure the dorean has messed with the wrong people and they are wanting pay back.However I sign the check so i feel im the one to blame during all this crap that has happened to my family,so i hold no grudge and thank God that i turned my life over to him many years ago,because if i didnt mr Mogel is the only one left on the outside Id start with him and work my way to the top of the scammers and everytime you took a step you would be reminded of all the people you and your dorean group has hurt.Alright im ready to hear all the negative stuff everybody has to say about my post.Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all who lost on the dorean process god someday will bless you.
