In the Old Testament period, the priest born of the tribe of Levi was the only one that could go into the Holy of Holies to represent the people. Today we are all priests, the veil of the Holy of Holies was torn down when Christ was crucified and we now have the awesome privilege of coming into the presence of God 24/7.
The priesthood of the believer is one of the great teachings of Scripture. Just imagine! We stand before God as a priest, as one who has access into God's presence any time of any day. There is no reason whatsoever why we should ever be overcome by any problem or trouble in this life. We are in the house of God. We can approach Him anytime and receive whatever we need to meet the demands of life: wisdom, provision, resource, or strength.
Peter 2:5 'you also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.'
