Till My Last Breath: Sojourner
The life of a believer while on earth, is bounded by the time factor. We are in this world as ambassadors and there is an assignment to fulfil. This means that our origin is of a different kingdom, the kingdom of God. And our loyalty is to Him and Him alone. Our career, academic ventures and...
-
Till My Last Breath: Paradox
You may have obtained a level of success that is not what God has termed for you as success as His child. God’s standard of success has more to do with purpose than possessions. Jesus did not have the riches of this world while He was on earth. Yet, He was indeed the most successful man that…

TCC Windsor Third Anniversary Service
As we thanked God for 3 years of his goodness, we were reminded of who we are and what we stand for. The Catalyst church is a Bible believing church with the vision to see all men saved and perpetually victorious in their walk with Christ. Christianity is a taught faith and every church must be...
-
Till My Last Breath: Imprint
Identity precedes and can define your assignment and purpose. One of the biggest blessings to the Christian worldview is that there are answers. From Genesis 1:26 we see that the invisible God made human beings represent Him on the earth. As a human being, not just a believer, you are created in...
-
Global Evangelism: Apologia 3
The Global Evangelism series wraps up with proving that the God of the Bible is the one true God. This is done by a thorough examination of the Bible. There are over 100 prophecies about Jesus. From Genesis, Isaiah, Micah, David, Jeremiah, and so on. Some of these include the birth place of Jesus...
-
Global Evangelism: Apologia 2
Apologia is the branch of theology that deals with defending and presenting the truth claims on Christianity. In salvation, there is rest but there is also a fight which is defense and a fight in contention. There are 2 forms of apologetics which are offensive and defensive apologetics. Offensive...
-
Global Evangelism: Apologia
There is one more step that it takes for a Christian to distinguish between the general theist belief in the existence of a god and proving that the Christian God is the one true God. This step is called Apologetics. It is the defense of the Christian faith. It is crucial that every believer is...
-
Global Evangelism: World Prism 5
A world view refers to the lens through which a person defines reality, and determines what is right and wrong. If we are going to evangelize the world we must understand the presuppositions and worldviews of people. Every world view needs to define truth, reality, identity, meaning and destiny....
-
Global Evangelism: World Prism 4
Everybody has a presupposition, a lens through which they see the world. These lenses are called worldviews. Postmodernism is the claim that absolute or objective truth- truth that is true for everybody, everywhere, does not exist. According to this worldview, there is no objective truth. Truth…

Global Evangelism: World Prism 3 (Pt. 2)
Every human being is walking around with a lens. So if you want to preach the gospel to them, you need to understand the lens through which they look through so you can tell them the truth. In this service, we looked at the balance of knowledge and the help of God in evangelism. Important because...
-
Global Evangelism: World Prism 3
You might not truly believe that there is eternal damnation if you do not preach to people. We take out some time in this service to practice what it feels like preaching to people of different worldviews (specifically the Naturalists) than the Christian faith. Some questions about these other...
-
Global Evangelism: World Prism 2
As we continue in preparations to encounter the presuppositions of people during evangelism, we consider the Naturalist Worldview. We are given the following six questions that help us to test any worldview, while studying what naturalist have concluded on: 1. What is real? 2. How do we know...
-
Global Evangelism: World Prism
Evangelism is not meant to feel like a chore; it should be something that advances you. It should be part of your growth and a fulfilment of purpose. Every single human being has a lens through which they see the world. This lens is shaped by experiences, environment, culture, upbringing, and so...
-
Global Evangelism: Consecrated
Sin does not just make one guilty, it makes one separate from God. The spiritual position of the believer before salvation was “dead”. This describes the standard that was set by God. Two attributes used to describe God are: 1. Holy 2. Just These attributes never change about God. So He justifies...
-
Global Evangelism: Take Your Chains
Jesus made Himself of no reputation, so that He could save the world from sin. God literally became a man for this reason. This was a choice that God had to make and it cost Him something. God choosing himself to die does not excuse the moral weight of this action, because it involves death. No…
more -
Global Evangelism: Kinetic 2
Burdens for unbelievers who are yet to experience the saving grace of Jesus, are a way to check how much you are growing in God. Understanding the gravity of one accepting or not accepting the gospel of Jesus Christ, must spur you to tell others this truth. It is a necessity to preach about…
more -
Global Evangelism: Kinetic
Evangelism is one crucial aspect of the Christian faith, which can be used as an indication or a mark of one's spiritual growth. Paul, speaking to the church in Philippi, told them that it would be beneficial for them if he remains with them, because they will experience joy and progress.…

Miracles in the Gospels V
In the miracle of turning water into wine, the massive catch of fish, the calming of the storm and more, creation responded to the king of all creation. Miracles are a pointer to the one who can save souls- Jesus. Every miracle Jesus performed was not random, neither were they for entertainment.…
more -
Miracles in the Gospels IV
When Jesus gave the great commission in Matthew 28:18, He declared that He has all authority. He was talking about the reign of a new kingdom. Then He specifically said to make disciples. But we’re not just going to educate them, we’re going with power! So the working of the miracles is in our...
-
In The Days Of His Power Lagos: Day 2, Afternoon Session
When God sends a man, He does not give him power only for the work; He also gives him authority. There is no other way to do ministry than through power and authority. Ministry is a battleground of authority. It is the reclaiming of territories for the Kingdom, and the devil is not happy about...
-
In The Days Of His Power Lagos: Day 2, Morning Session
The “wilderness” is the preparation place for the restoration of the kingdom. Hard times and bad things can happen and will happen. But understanding the ways of God shows us that He turns our purpose to pain. God has placed a call over your life that needs to go through seasons of training and...
-
In The Days Of His Power Lagos: Day 1, Evening Session
Continuing from the last session taught, we learn about the wilderness- how the wilderness is a preparation for the kingdom. Wilderness seasons are the most sensitive for man. We learn never to compare where you are coming from to where God is taking you because comparison is a killer of purpose.
-
In The Days Of His Power Lagos: Day 1, Afternoon Session
The same Gospel that got you saved is the same Gospel that will cause you to mature. The history of the Israelites is our theology. When we look at how God related to them, we can know what to expect from Him. David’s cry in the wilderness (Psalm 63) was not just random; it was part of a cycle of...
-
Pre-Camp Service
Purpose in God is His unique imprint on your soul through which you would be able to serve on the earth- the part you play in God’s redemptive plan. God showed Abraham in the book of Genesis that his life was more than his situation. Camp meetings exists to remind us, shape us, and get us ready…
more -
Miracles in the Gospels II
God's goal for the world is that every single person hears about the gospel of Jesus Christ, and accepts Him as Lord over everything. Miracles are not for amazement and entertainment. They are a way of enforcing the reign of Christ, the kingdom of God on the earth, taking back territory one place...
-
In The Days of His Power Windsor: Day 2, Evening Session
Many see the Kingdom of God as a location, a destination, or something that will happen in the future. But the Kingdom of God is happening now; it is the reign of God. The original design was for God and humanity to share the same space. Man was created to be God’s representative, but sin caused…
more -
In The Days Of His Power Windsor: Day 2, Afternoon Session
The problem of sin is that man lost his relationship with God. There therefore needed to be a restoration of man to God. Christ came to become like us so that we can become like Him, taking on our nature so that we could take on his, entering death so that we could enter life. The kingdom of God…
more -
In The Days Of His Power Windsor: Day 1, Evening Session
There is theology which supports the fact that God is with you in your pain. He cared enough to leave divinity and become human so that He could feel what you feel and be a worthy High Priest. The solution to injustice, as we see in the Psalms, is not just legal systems, but God arising and…
more -
In The Days Of His Power Windsor: Day 1, Afternoon Session
In conclusion to the first session, baptism is in some form, a symbol of an exodus. Jesus thought it wise enough to be baptised, giving us a picture of our exodus from death to life. Baptism then becomes a picture of the question: "Who would you follow?'. Would you follow God or return to Egypt?…
more -
In The Days Of His Power Windsor: Day 1, Morning Session
There’s an approach in the writing of Scripture that makes it not just a writing for history but for you. A few points about the way Hebrew authors wrote: 1. Hebrew authors wrote in patterns. 2. Hebrew authors used cycles. The Book of Exodus is a pattern that repeats all through the Bible.…

Fire Place: Special Meetings 2
In Special Meetings I, the question of why we gather as a church was answered. However, during a Sunday service, we do not have enough time to cover everything we need for our spiritual growth. That is why God, in His wisdom, instituted other meetings. These include: Prayer Meetings, Teaching...
-
Fire Place: Special Meetings
“Do not forsake the gathering of believers”, does not only mean that you missed out on something in the service when you do not show up. It also means that other believers miss out on something when you do not show up, or belong to a church. We miss the point of church when we gather for routine...
-
Fire Place: Flow of the Spirit
The 'Fire Place' series introduces and emphasizes the importance of exercising the gifts of the Spirit, for ourselves and for our brothers and sisters in Christ. Every believer is supposed to be a conduit of the presence of God. A break in transmission in your life, meaning how you conduct that...
-
Altars: Overflow
Throughout this series, our devotion has been at the centre of every teaching. The plan of God for your devotion is an overflow; that you wake up every day deciding that your altar will remain on fire for the rest of your life. This teaching gives us practical ways to achieve the overflow in our...
-
Altars: Kindle
As believers, we are instructed by the Bible not to be ignorant of the Charismatic. In this sermon, we are taught what we need to know about spiritual gifts and why every believer should desire to speak in tongues. The Bible does not give an exhaustive list of the gifts of the Spirit, so…
more -
Altars: Fire Killers
No matter how shattered your altar may have become, under the right circumstances, it can come back to life again. We are not supposed to treat our spiritual fire as if it cannot be quenched. We are to protect it because it can be quenched. It is our responsibility to fan the flames of the fire…
more -
Altars: Brilliant Fire
Many times, people think the things of the Spirit happen randomly. But the things of the Spirit can operate by consistent discoverable and repeated laws. There is a science to the things of the Spirit. You can have replicable results. In nature, fire needs the same elements every time to be...
-
Altars: Knowledge of the Holy 2
Encounters are the starting point of devotion. When you reach the point where nothing else matters but God, that is where devotion truly begins. If you truly know God, that knowledge should be compelling enough to bring you to total surrender. Some arguments discussed in this teaching include: 1....
-
Altars: Knowledge of the Holy
At this point in the year, there are 242 days left till the end of the year 2026, and it is possible to make the most of these remaining days of the year to show up at the place of prayer every single day and fix up what is needed in our devotion. This teaching series presents to us that it is...
-
Yeshua: Zoe- The Life of Christ
At salvation, you did not give God a life that was worthy or useful on its own. The life you had was already tending toward death and wrath; there was nothing God could do with that life. Instead, you received the very life of Christ. At salvation, we became partakers of the divine nature of…
more -
The Glory Experience: Catalyst Saturdays
Signs of perilous times have been prophesied in the Bible. This is not something that should surprise us because we know that it would come to pass. False prophets will arise, and false doctrines will be preached in churches. But it is our responsibility to be discerning and identify these false...
-
Yeshua: Ancient Errors, Modern Heresies
A lot of people think the way to be able to identify heresy and wrong teachings is figuring out who is wrong, and finding all the wrong teachings. But new methods of presenting heresies are being brought up every day. So it is actually knowing the right thing enough that helps you know what is...
-
Yeshua: Hypostatic Union- One Person, Two Natures
The true nature of Jesus Christ is best understood by affirming what He is and rejecting what He is not. Throughout history, several heresies such as Docetism, Arianism, Apollinarianism, Nestorianism, and Eutychianism have distorted the truth about His identity, either denying His full humanity,...
-
Yeshua: The Godman
In this sermon, we learn about Jesus' reputation as the Christ. We are taught that from the fall of Adam, there was rebellion against God, and this rebellion was a result of sin, causing God to stop being king in the hearts of many people. However, we discover through Scriptures that God had a…
more -
Yeshua: The Incarnation
To properly understand the Incarnation of God, we must know what necessitated it- sin. From this teaching, we learn that man cannot pay for his sins even if he tries because he is helpless. Every man needs the intervention of a saviour who is without sin, who is human, and of infinite worth. The...
-
Yeshua: Theophany
The resurrection of Jesus Christ is central to the Christian faith. It confirms His lordship and assures believers that death is not the end. Because He rose again, those who die in Christ have the hope of eternal life. What distinguishes Christianity is not just reverence for Jesus, but an...
-
Yeshua: Who Is This Man?
In this sermon, we learn that reverence for Jesus is not what makes you a believer but what you believe about him. Jesus asked the disciples, "Who am I to you?" because it matters to Jesus who He is to the believer. The disciplined study of who Christ is is known as Christology. This shapes our...
-
Chequemate: Gambit
It is possible to have money and still love the Lord. There is an increase that comes with money, which serves God, rather than replacing Him in your life. The answer is a prepared heart. You can get to a point that money does not move you, and the bible gives us examples of such people–…
more -
Leaps and Bounds Lagos: Afternoon Session
The Christian faith is a faith of results. And there are certain results you would not get without prevailing prayers. We are taught that our prayers can transform what the word of God says into power in our hands. Every work of God- present, past, and future- operates through a consistent...
-
Leaps and Bounds Lagos: Morning Session
In this morning session of Leaps and Bounds, we learn that the Salvation experience was not an upgrade; it was a whole new being created from a different source entirely. We also learn that one of the ways to birth results is through prevailing prayers- prayers that are consistent, insistent,...
