Worship & Word Wednesday | What Jesus Said Changes Everything About Weight Loss: Luke13
from Christian Women’s Weight Loss | Faith, Food, Fitness · host Ondrea Lynn - Certified Personal Trainer and Nutrition Coach for Christian Women
Have you been doing everything right — praying, going to the gym, following the diet — and you are still stuck in your body? This episode is for you. In this Worship and Word Wednesday bonus episode, Christian health and wellness coach Ondrea Lynn opens Luke 13:10–17 — the story of the bent woman — and delivers a word that will shift how you see your entire weight loss journey. Here's what stopped her in this passage: the woman Jesus healed was already in the synagogue. She was faithful. She was showing up. And she had been bent over for eighteen years — unable to lift herself up no matter how hard she tried. Sound familiar? Ondrea breaks open the original Greek words Jesus used when He healed this woman — Apolelysai, meaning permanently and completely loosed by an outside authority, and Astheneia, meaning a structural weakness you cannot overcome from within yourself — and reveals why this two-word declaration from Christ is the missing piece in every Christian woman's health journey. This is not a willpower problem. This is not a discipline problem. Jesus identified it in Luke 13 and He is identifying it for you today. In this episode you will get a deep word study rooted in the original Greek and Hebrew, a worship experience to shift your atmosphere, declarations straight from Scripture to speak over your body, a praise break, and a closing prayer specifically for the woman who is faithful and still stuck. If you are a Christian woman over 40 who feels like you have tried everything and nothing is working, this episode will show you why — and what Jesus already said about it two thousand years ago. Topics covered in this episode: Luke 13 and the bent woman, Greek word study on Apolelysai and Astheneia, spiritual roots of physical struggle, body stewardship as a Kingdom assignment, being a daughter of Abraham, faith and fitness, Christian weight loss for women, declarations for health and wholeness, worship and word for Christian women. Resources mentioned: Victory Retreat — August 6–9, Upstate New York — intimate all-inclusive faith and fitness retreat for Christian women. Visit ondrealynn.com or DM "RETREAT" on Instagram or FB.
