ça vs le or la

I have often found that when they use something like "de ne pas faire ça" I have used "de ne pas le faire". Is this incorrect usage? Or just another alternative?

Ne pas le faire. -- Not to do it.
Ne pas faire ça. -- Not to do that.

The second sentence stresses particularly what not to do.
