Context of Psalms 106:12
10And he saved them from the hand of him that hated them, And redeemed them from the hand of the enemy. 11And the waters covered their adversaries; There was not one of them left. Then believed they his words; They sang his praise. 13They soon forgat his works; They waited not for his counsel, 14But lusted exceedingly in the wilderness, And tempted God in the desert.

We are encouraged to hope that though justly corrected, yet we shall not be utterly forsaken. God's afflicted people own themselves guilty before him. God is distrusted because his favours are not remembered. If he did not save us for his own name's sake, and to the praise of his power and grace, we should all perish.Read the comment
