The Catalyst Community

The book of Genesis tells us what God is doing on the earth. God planted a garden eastward in Eden and put man in it. There were rivers that also flowed from Eden, meaning that Eden was a physical location.

But Eden also had access to God’s space, meaning it was a spiritual location as well.

Therefore, the best description of Eden is a space where Heaven overlapped on the Earth. This was God’s plan.

But if God created a world that overlaps- Heaven on earth, why is earth not reflecting Heaven? We find answers as we go through this teaching.

In this sermon, we are taught how to apply the right Bible study approach: Exegesis, which is understanding how the authors of the Bible, though inspired by God, wrote.

‎If we are to experience Heaven on Earth, we have to come to a place where we understand that our worldview cannot be like that of the world.

It is not the plan of God to relegate the prophetic to just a select few. The prophetic is for all of God's children. Every single one.

God is more willing to lead us than we want to be led. It is possible to know the future from now. It is possible to know what to do, when to do it, how to do it, and who to do it with in the coming years.

When God created the earth, He spoke. This is how God does things. He says it before it is done.

We are taught three forms that prophecy takes. They are:

1. Fore-telling

2. Forth-telling

3. Revelatory Disclosures

As a church, we gathered for 60 days to raise an altar of prayer in this season. We fasted and prayed all through these days, and we saw the manifestations of God.

This special time of prayer was not only for a collective encounter, but it was also for each person to take what they received and use it in their personal times of devotion and consecration.

What we have received should not end in these 60 days. We are to carry it for the rest of our lives. Be careful not to overcompensate afterwards. Choose to live a 'fasted' life.

Here are some things to do after receiving encounters from the Lord:

1. Count your blessings. Let it be thanksgiving galore from this time onward.

2. Learn how to sustain your encounters.

3. Be intentional with the results of your encounters.

As believers, we know that Jesus is coming again. This is why we ought to live as though Jesus is coming tomorrow.

Having this knowledge, we must conduct ourselves accordingly and choose not to live as if we are not expecting the Messiah.

‎Our role as we wait for the Messiah:

‎1. Pray as if you have never prayed before to see results like never before.

‎2. Cast your net for evangelism- the salvation of souls.

This teaching is a reminder of the prophecy of the Dynamic Spread over Catalyst Church, reminding us that God’s word did not expire in the year it was given. The prophecy is still alive.

It is still the time and season to make sacrifices for what God has asked you to do. It is time to choose God and His word over every other thing.

This message is a timely reminder that you are part of God’s move on the earth and are called to be an active participant in evangelism and the discipleship of others.

As we expound on the motif of mountains, we realize that God’s plan was not just for man to come up to mountains, but for Him to bring the mountain to us. This led to the spiritual technology called altars.

Altars are a divine strategy or protocol for connecting with the realm of the spirit, a divine method to experience heaven on earth, utilizing the appropriate sacrifice as required for each situation.

Altars are God’s wisdom to help you take control, to step into heaven where deliberations are made.

And our goal in raising alters is not to shift the hand of God, but for God to realign our hearts and communicate the will of heaven to us.

‎In this sermon, we are taught how to apply the right approach to Bible study by considering the "there and then" before the "here and now."

‎Using Psalm 24, these three questions are answered:

‎1. What is the hill of the Lord?

‎2. Is the holy place the same as the hill of the Lord?

‎3. Why does one need to be clean to enter this holy place?

4. How did God use mountains to reveal Himself, and what does this mean for you and me today?

In the very first session of Christ Life Camp 2025- Heaven on Earth, the basis for understanding the subsequent teachings is set with a detailed study on how to read the Bible.

The composition of the Bible is broken down, and we are taught some of the Hebrew and Greek literary devices, the tools of Bible interpretation, and how to use them effectively.

It is possible for you to tell what the weather will be like today or even tomorrow by checking the weather app on your device, yet you may not be sensitive to the next spiritual activity God has set before you in your life.

Understanding spiritual seasons is very critical to discerning what God is about to do in your life.

One way God gives us seasons of refreshing is through special meetings, such as our annual Christ Life Camp.

Conclusions about times of refreshing:

1. There will be several of them.

2. They are for those who are saved.

3. You will be truly refreshed by them; they will be times of spiritual rejuvenation.

4. They will help you expect the time of restoration.
