A firm, non-painful lump where the incision was made to spay your cat is absolutely normal. It is a part of the healing process most cats will go through *but not all*. Some things to look out for though- if the cat seems to be in pain from the lump or if it is red, swelling, or has drainage or if your cat is listless or not eating, this may be some cause for concern... in these events I would suggest calling your vet to check it out. Sometimes its not a bad idea to let the vet know that the lump has formed whether its painful or swollen anyway, just so they can make a note of it, and give you more detailed instruction as to make sure it does not get infected.
