Psalm 106 serves as a powerful reminder of God’s enduring mercy in spite of our consistent failings. Despite Israel’s repeated rebellion, God’s response was consistent – He heard their cries and delivered them time and time again. It compels us to reflect on our actions, seek repentance, and constantly strive to appreciate the divine mercy and grace that pervades our lives. ~ Biblehub

Your wondrous works are remembered in abundance throughout all corner of the world. Those who rebelled are going against your mighty power and they will be rebuked and cast into the pit of hell.
Oh Lord, saved us from the hand of our foes and redeemed us from their power; for your enemies are our too. You will deal with them as you did with the Egyptians and adversaries the went against God’s chosen people. We shall continue believing your words and sing praises.
Never Forget (v 13-23)
Teach me to never forget your words and counsels. And never put God to the test as they did in the wildness. They exchanged the glory of God for an image of an ox that eats grass. Our wold and nations is doing the same, they rebelled and refused to glorify Jesus Christ our Redeemer and Savior. O Lord, be kind to your servants that have to live amidst the cursed insolent.
Having no Faith in His Promise( v 24-33)
Those who despised in God’s amazing Creation and take no hope in His promises, but murmur vile things against Him, well soon perished according their own deed. Your servant faithfully watched and raised my hands to the sky in hope of a better and peaceful rest. Oh Lord, I see how they have provoked You in anger with their deeds. My fear rise knowing that You will not let this continue forever, because you promise to return to us. While I wait for your return, gave me strength, courage, and faith that stand firm upon your promises.
Glory in your Praise ( v 34-48)
Father in heaven, let your mercy fall on our daughters and sons. Do not let them perish, but call them out of the domain of darkness into your marvellous light. ‘Save us, O LORD our God and gather us from among the nations, that we may give thanks to your holy name and glory in your praise. ‘ (v 47)
