Welcome to Follow The Leader FTL

You are royal priests. Servants of Christ and stewards of the mysteries of God. Now it is required that those who have been given a trust must prove faithful. I care very little if I am judged by you or by any human court; indeed, I do not even judge myself. My conscience is clear, but that does not make me innocent. It is the Lord who judges me. Therefore judge nothing before the appointed time; wait until the Lord comes. He will bring to light what is hidden in darkness and

Make full use of the gift God gave you. He has not given us a spirit of fear, but one of power, love, and sound judgment. We do not belong to those who shrink back and are destroyed, but to those who have faith and are saved. For the gospel reveals the righteousness of God that comes by faith from start to finish, just as it is written: "The righteous will live by faith. " Look at the proud! They trust in themselves, and their lives are crooked. But the righteous will live by

Whoever loves money will never have enough of it. And whoever loves wealth will never gain enough. This is very hard to understand, but here are three ideas that can help: Money attracts other people who want to depend on wealthy people. Then the wealthy people have extra responsibilities. So there are more demands on the money. The owner has gained nothing for himself except something that he can look at. He cannot enjoy his wealth, because extra costs use all his money. The

Sometimes the truth hurts and leaves us in the dark more than ever. The LORD hasn't lost his powerful strength; he can still hear and answer prayers. But your wrongs have separated you from your God, and your sins have made him hide his face so that he doesn't hear you. We have rebelled and refused to follow you. Our hearts were deceitful, and so we lied; we planned to abuse others and turn our backs on you. Injustice is everywhere; justice seems far away. Truth is chased out

Bring everyone who is called by my name, whom I created for my glory, whom I formed and made. For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance as our way of life. God saved us and chose us to be his holy people. We did nothing to deserve this, but God planned it because he is so kind. Even before time began God planned for Christ Jesus to show kindness to us. He saved us, not by the righteous deeds we had done, but accordin

Its starts very early in the morning even before the sun up, the LORD opens up his hand and satisfies the desires of every living thing. The eyes of all who look to Him in hope; He gives them their food as they need it. The LORD helps the fallen and lifts those bent beneath their loads. The LORD is fair in all his ways and faithful in everything he does. God is a righteous judge, and strong, and patient, not inflicting vengeance every day. But He is angry with the wicked ever

A Bank. A bank is such a blessing to a community, town and city. Banks are critical to our economy. The primary function of banks is to put their account holders money to use by lending it out to others who can then use it to buy homes, businesses, send kids to college. Banks create money in the economy by making loans. To see how this affects the economy, think about it like this. When a bank gets a deposit of $100, assuming a reserve requirement of 10 percent, the bank can

No one has ever gone to heaven and returned. But the Son of Man has come down from heaven. I have spoken to you of earthly things and you do not believe; how then will you believe if I speak of heavenly things? This is heaven to know God and his purpose for my life. Heaven came down and glory filled my soul. My sins were washed away and my life was surely saved. Jesus is heaven coming to our hearts and lives. I want heaven so bad right now. But I need Jesus and his presence o

Sorrow is better than laughter, for sadness has a refining influence on us. In spite of a sad face, the heart can be joyful. Be careful with excessive sorrow, stay humble before the LORD and keep his name Holy. When God makes you feel sorry enough to turn to him and be saved, you don't have anything to feel bad about. But when this world makes you feel sorry, it can cause your death. So the redeemed of the LORD will return and enter Zion with singing, crowned with everlasting

A Prayer for Help Why are you far away, LORD? Why do you hide yourself when I am in trouble? Proud and brutal people hunt down the poor. But let them get caught by their own evil plans! The wicked brag about their deepest desires. Those greedy people hate and curse you, LORD. The wicked are too proud to turn to you or even think about you. They are always successful, though they can't understand your teachings, and they keep sneering at their enemies. In their hearts they say
