In both the Old Testament and New Testament, there are two priesthoods - universal priesthood of all believers, and the ministerial priesthood.Exodus 19:6 (KJV) - And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel.The two verses quoted here are about the universal priesthood.
By definition, a priest is someone who has direct access to God, in contrast to the normal situation in which we are separated from God by our sins. For example, under the Mosaic system, the priest had to take your sacrifice and offer it on your behalf. However, as a Christian, because Christ has taken our sins away by suffering on our behalf, we have that personal access to God restored, and are thus said to be "a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation." (1 Peter 2:9)
It doesn't "take" anything. In 1 Peter 2:9 it says "You are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God's special possession that you may declare the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His wonderful light. We are all chosen by God to do something great and are called to serve Him and spread the gospel.

Luke 11:28
