The Levitical Priesthood had the responsibility of attending to the functions of the tabernacle such as offering sacrifices. A prophet or a leader would speak to the people in God’s behalf.
In the New Testament, all are called to minister to the Lord as priests, but God still gives leadership gifts to His people in the form of … “the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the pastors and teachers, to equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God.” Eph. 4:11-13
DAILY PRAYER: Lord, we take our place in Your body as those who offer sacrifices of praise and thanksgiving to you daily as the Old Testament priests did.
DAILY READING: Deut. 18-21
