The FLOT Line Show
Welcome to The FLOT Line, with your host, Rick Hughes. For the next 30 minutes, you will be inspired, motivated, and educated, but never manipulated. FLOT is an acronym for Forward Line of Troops. The show teaches principles from the Bible and focuses on God’s 10 unique problem-solving devices. If you choose to learn and apply them, they will act as a main line of resistance in your soul, a FLOT line, preventing the outside sources of adversity from becoming the inside pressure of stress in your soul. The intent is to give you information to help you identify the plan of God for your life.

Discontent, Decline and Destruction, Part 2 (2015) 23.08.2024 28:12
The counsel of Scripture is what we need. Wisdom must be acquired—it isn’t inherited. “Listen to counsel and receive instruction so you may be wise in your latter days” (Prov 19:20). Our nation has turned away from Scriptural wisdom and we’ve become a society without a divine viewpoint. Discretion from divine wisdom guards us, as individuals and as a nation (Prov 2:10). We need to have the superna...
Discontent, Decline and Destruction, Part 1 (2015) 22.08.2024 28:26
The only hope to break the cycle of decline-destruction in our nation is the spiritual life of believers in our nation. If you become an invisible hero by growing to spiritual maturity you can have a spiritual impact on our nation. “He that handles a matter wisely shall find good, and whosoever trusts in the Lord, happy is he” (Prov 16:20). We have the dynamics of God’s Word and the controlling mi...
Sin Nature (2015) 21.08.2024 28:12
You are either filled with the Holy Spirit or you are carnal and under control of the sin nature. One or the other. This is a daily battle. Will you let the sin nature control your life or will you allow the Holy Spirit to control your life? All of us have a sin nature inherited from Adam’s original sin. The sin nature has an area of weakness, and this is the source of temptation. It has an area o...
The Advantage of Grace, Part 4 (2015) 19.08.2024 28:05
Dying grace is an amazing blessing for a mature believer. This is the full grace of God being realized when dying. “For me living is Christ and dying is profit” (Phil 1:21). Dying grace is an extension of living grace so there is the maximum glorification of dying grace is the link we have between blessings we get in time and what we will get in eternity. We will have an abundance of God’s blessin...
The Advantage of Grace, Part 3 (2015) 18.08.2024 27:26
God wants us to grow in grace, come to understand grace, utilize grace and teach grace. The Christian life focuses and functions around grace. Grace is an amazing gift from God. “God is able to make all grace abound toward you” (2 Cor 9:8). This is our divine promise for all grace provisions. You don’t have to worry or have anxiety. Put it on the Lord. That’s one of His grace provisions. “My God s...
The Advantage of Grace, Part 2 (2015) 17.08.2024 28:23
God’s grace sustains you. Don’t get overly concerned about your security or safety. That’s God’s business, not yours. “My God shall supply all of your needs according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus” (Phil 4:19). You have the righteousness of God through your faith in Jesus Christ. The justice of God sends life support to the righteousness of God that’s inside of you. That’s grace—you don’t...
The Advantage of Grace, Part 1 (2015) 16.08.2024 28:18
The power in the Christian life lies in the filling of the Holy Spirit, the Word of God in your soul, and an attitude of grace orientation. You need to understand grace to effectively re-present Christ to others. “Unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ” (Eph 4:7). Jesus Christ gives us the ultimate grace gift - eternal security. The Holy Spirit in common...
The Importance of God's Word (2015) 15.08.2024 28:20
Without learning and applying God’s Word you’re never going to glorify God. And you won’t learn about one of the most important provisions God has for you—logistical grace. Learn how God will supply your every need. “Which one of you by being anxious can add anything to your life?” (Luke 12:25). You never have to worry when you use the supernatural power of the living Word of God. Doctrinal/Biblic...
Filling of the Holy Spirit (2015) 14.08.2024 28:20
To live the supernatural Christian life, you must be filled with the Holy Spirit. You need to learn how to let the Holy Spirit control your life and lead you to the truth. “When He the Holy Spirit has come, He will guide you into all truth” (John 16:13). The secret to growing to spiritual maturity is staying filled with the Holy Spirit so you have the power to live the Christian life. The Christia...
Self-Destruction (2015) 12.08.2024 28:17
Self-destruction is not God’s plan for you. “Hear my son and receive my sayings and the years of your life will be many” (Prov 4:10). “The fear of the Lord prolongs days but the years of the wicked will be shortened” (Prov 10:27). Many Christians are not willing to learn. They are not interested in what God has to say. They have turned their backs on Him. When more terror comes to America, and it...
Three Steps to Maturity (2015) 11.08.2024 28:26
Don’t deviate from sound doctrine. Don’t drift from grace. Don’t be discouraged with discipline. These are three essential steps if you are going to reach spiritual maturity and glorify God to the maximum. If anyone tells you that you have to do something to be saved other than faith alone in Christ alone, that is a deviation from sound doctrine. “We must give the Ernest heed to the things that we...
The Abundance of Possessions (2015) 10.08.2024 28:27
If you’re not content with what you have now, you won’t be content with things you receive in the future. Capacity starts with contentment. If you’re content, God can pour blessings into your life, and they won’t distract or destroy you. The greatest wealth you can ever possess is salvation and divine wisdom in your soul.

Easter Message (2015) 09.08.2024 28:18
No one had greater unfair treatment than our Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ. He endured illegal trials and was sentenced to death even after Pilate proclaimed, “I find no basis for a charge against this Man." Yes, it was unfair but it was God the Father’s plan for Him. “He was despised and rejected of men … we esteemed Him not. He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniq...
Happiness (2015) 08.08.2024 28:17
Unhappy people take their unhappiness with them wherever they go. Satan is a counterfeiter. He promotes the myth that people or circumstances can make you happy. They can’t. Sharing the happiness of God, problem-solving device #9 is what makes you happy. Jesus Christ wants you to be happy. “I have taught you these things so that My happiness might be in you” (John 15:11). This happiness only comes...
The Flawed Believer, Part 2 (2015) 07.08.2024 28:12
Flaws are things in life that prevent us from taking in the Word of God, understanding it, and storing it in our souls. Flaws are inherent or acquired. It’s hard for a flawed believer to apply God’s Word because of arrogance. Part of the trend of arrogance is self-absorption. Preoccupation with self will stop you from living the Christian way of life and prevent you from ever glorifying God. Humil...
The Flawed Believer, Part 1 (2015) 05.08.2024 28:06
We all have faults because we all have a sin nature. We also have flaws. “There is none righteous, not even one” (Rom 3:10). What is a flaw? It is something that blocks your learning and understanding of the Word of God. Flaws are things that we acquire or inherit. A flawed believer may have a lot of knowledge but applies very little. Often, arrogance is a trait of a flawed person. The only way to...
Risk Taker (2015) 04.08.2024 28:20
You can be a dream maker and follow your dreams. Or you can be a risk taker and follow the Lord Jesus Christ. God is looking for risk-takers, not excuse-makers. A risk-taker is dedicated to the mission of growing to spiritual maturity and is prepared to be used by the Lord. “Here am I, send me” (Is 6:8). Stay filled with the Holy Spirit and make learning and applying the Word of God a daily priori...
Life-Changing, Part 3 (2015) 03.08.2024 28:15
You come to know God’s will for your life as you learn God’s Word. "Happiness belongs to those people who hear My Father's Word and keep it.” (Luke 11:28). There are three sources of naivety in the believer’s life starting with ignorance of the reality of your situation, your circumstances. Another is being influenced or inspired by the wrong people or led astray by even the right people. Don’t ge...
Life-Changing, Part 2 (2015) 02.08.2024 28:18
The Holy Spirit is your divine mentor. He reveals the plan of God to you as you learn God’s Word and empowers you to live the plan. Perception, metabolization and application of God’s Word are how you change your life. Hear God’s Word taught by a well-qualified pastor, learn it, accept it through faith, apply it and live it. This is God’s plan for you. “That you come to understand and know Me” (Je...
Life-Changing, Part 1 (2015) 01.08.2024 28:12
The Christian life is a supernatural life lived only by means of the filling of the Holy Spirit and the dynamics of the Word of God in your soul. “They that worship God must worship Him in spirit and in truth” (John 4:24). Salvation is life-changing because you are now a child of God, a member of the royal family. “To all who have received Him, those who believe in His name, He has given the right...
Father (2015) 31.07.2024 28:15
The best father anyone can have is God the Father. “Yet for us, there is only one God, the Father, from whom are all things, and we exist for Him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we exist through Him.” (1 Cor 8:6). No earthly father can love you as much as your heavenly Father loves you. “God only is my rock and my salvation. My stronghold: I shall not be greatly shaken” (P...
How I Got Here (2015) 29.07.2024 28:14
This is how I became an evangelist. Without learning and understanding the Word of God I would have no ministry. God’s plan for you is to believe in the Lord Jesus Christ to receive Him as your Savior as I did. “As many as received Him to them He gave the right to become children of God even to those who believe in His name” (John 1:12). God’s plan is for you to learn God’s Word under a qualified...
Anger (2015) 28.07.2024 28:24
Has anger ever gotten you in trouble? Whenever you get angry you surrender control of your life to the one you’re angry with. Anger is a mental attitude sin and often leads to chain sinning. “Do not grieve the Holy Spirit whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, clamor and evil speaking be put away from you with all malice” (Eph 4:30-31). Anger is often set...
Take Heed (2015) 27.07.2024 28:21
When disaster comes, the Word of God in your soul is what will deliver you and allow you to relax. So quit leaning on others. Lean on God and His Word. Understand that Jesus Christ controls history. “Take heed that no man deceives you” (Matt 24:4). To interpret contemporary history, you must be able to apply the Word of God to the situation. You must understand contemporary history and evaluate it...
Freedom in Christ (2015) 26.07.2024 28:27
Jesus Christ will set you free. Accept His grace gift of salvation. “Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved.” Christ freed you from the slave market of sin through His death on the cross. He redeemed you from the penalty of sin and death. “So the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed” (John 8:36). “Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom” (2 Cor 3:17). You don’t have...
