We justify our request that God should heal us and save us “because You are our praise.” In other words, we are saying here: “God, if we are psychologically and spiritually sick, we cannot praise You properly nor promote Your name successfully. Make us well and strong because we are important to You. We can then fully sing Your praises and promote Your name.” Stepping up the stakes, we then make our case for complete healing of all our wounds “because You are the Divine King who is a committed and compassionate Healer.” Here we are implying: “God, You are our King and we are Your nation. If Your nation is wounded and weak, then this reflects badly on You as our King. Do this because You need us to be healthy and strong. Without us You cannot be manifest in all Your splendor and kingship. Heal us so that we can fulfill our mission on earth to promote Your truth and make Your majestic presence known to all.” The Book of Psalms expresses this same reasoning with the words, “Heal me, YHVH … save me for the sake of Your kindness. Because among the [spiritually] dead, there is no one that mentions You. In the grave, who will acknowledge You?” We end this prayer with, “Blessed are You, YHVH, who heals the sick of His nation Israel.”
