Welcome to Follow The Leader FTL

The LORD has the last word. He has final say over the affairs of humanity. Nothing can be sealed without the Alpha and Omega Himself, He is the beginning and the end. Your word, O LORD, is everlasting; it is firmly fixed in the heavens. The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God stands forever. Even Michael, the chief angel, didn't dare to insult the devil, when the two of them were arguing about the body of Moses. All Michael said was, "The Lord rebuke y

LORD, I know you want to do so much through me. The question is though if I am willing to suffer. Nothing about growing in faith and holiness is easy. Like Paul, you must show us how much we must suffer. And not in a weird self deprecating way, but in pure and honest way. Christ life on earth was a life of suffering. He came and lived among us, and felt our pain. He is awesome in that way because He is our great intercessor between God and man. I see one way that is the strai

Nobody who lives by their natural desires can ever please God. Some people live under the control of their human nature. Their natural desires control their minds and the result of our natural thoughts and desires is death. Our natural thoughts and desires oppose God. Such thoughts do not obey God’s law. In fact, such thoughts are not even able to obey God’s law. But your natural desires do not have to control you anymore. The Holy Spirit controls you if the Spirit of God liv

All you have is scripture and that's enough. There are so many questions about life that we will have to wait till the other side of heaven. And not just inescapable chance or providence. But things of scripture that we will have rely on. That is what scripture is for, to help us make sense out of this sinful world. Obviously everything in context, but all of our faith should be founded on the written word of God. But we lack inspiration when we look at the word of God as a P

God does not honor your privacy. He knows everything that we do in private. He sees our secret actions and motives. And the wrong things we do we cannot hide it from Him. We may think that nobody knows, but He knows everything. Nothing is hidden from God! He sees through everything, and we will have to tell him the truth. This is why we must live in the truth and not live secret lives. Because of sin in our hearts though we tend love darkness rather than light, lies rather th

Listen, I hear weeping and sorrow. Many who are looking for relief and for release. LORD, I hear so much crying and pain in this world. Make me an instrument of peace in a world filled with chaos and hate. May my prayers mixed with the aroma of Christ rise to your throne and cause you to rise with righteous indignation. Where there is hatred send out your love. Where there is injury send your healing. Where there is striving send your rest. Where there is blindness send your

My Adonai. My LORD and Master. I will make sure to fear you LORD and serve you faithfully with all my heart. May I never fail to consider what great things you have done for me. Protect me, LORD God! I run to you for safety, and I have said, "Only you are my Lord! Every good thing I have is a gift from you." In heaven I have only you, and on this earth you are all I want. Behold, as the eyes of servants look to the hand of their master, as the eyes of a maidservant to the han

It's not free. Sin has a cost and it takes its toll. Losing a piece of your soul one sinful desire at a time. What good is it to gain the world but lose your soul. Your soul is what makes you you. Your soul is what makes you alive before God. And if we are dead in our sins we will be destroyed by its destructive guilt and shame. How important is it you the soul which God has given you. Your body is the LORD's any way, but the soul are we willing to protect it? You cannot buy

Break tackle. There are so many things that the enemy throws at the believer in Christ to drag them back into their sins and defeat. Daily, its like a kick return in football terms. The goal is to move forward and not backward. To not fumble our progress and growth, yet again we find ourselves tackled with the cares and worries of this life. Each day should be a touchdown to glorify Jesus, though I admit many days I am not even close to the 50 yard line. Thanks be to the grac

LORD, how many times will you forgive me? I do the same dumb sin over and over again. I let my mind wander and my heart becomes weak. Sin gets born in me so quickly. Yet you are always willing to forgive me. Though seven is a good whole number, you say 70 times 7 I should give, which is beyond my comprehension. The question then becomes will I always be willing to confess and repent. I was born forgiven actually, Jesus was the lamb slain before the foundations of the world. S
