Through Moses God instructed Aaron and his sons on how to pray for the people.
It is “The LORD”, more than anything we need in our lives.
We need good religious leaders, good bosses, good political leaders, community leaders.
We need The LORD working in our lives, The LORD is what everyone need.
Aaron and his sons were Priest but the help wasn’t coming from the Priest, but from the LORD.
This was there prayer and it is our prayer.
