How to use with Il faut que?

What do you do in the case of "il faut que" such as "Il faut que j'aille faire les courses."    On second reference, you wouldn't say, "il le faut?"  Could you say "" Il faut que j'y aille" or "Je le dois?"  Or, does this "le" rule not apply to Il faut que?  Scrambled here!:)

Maybe these examples shed some light on your question:

Il faut que j'y aille. -- I have to go there.
Je dois y aller. -- I have to go there.

Il faut que je le fasse. -- I must do it.
Je dois le faire. -- I must do it.
