“ In the ‘ Fit for the Fight ’ Women ’ s session , we discussed some things that hinder our victory and hence our ability to fulfil our purpose in God . These include the battle of the mind - the various fields that bombard our minds . Often include insecurities associated with past experiences , abuse etc . Unforgiveness is a major impediment and we concluded that it is a decision .” She expressed that these issues of the battle of the mind is a area in need of great attention in our ministry to the women .

Karen is one of the Music Ministers at both the Providence Methodist and Hope United Churches and is the Music Director of the Youth Choir and Junior music ensemble at Providence and Campion College .
Karen looked at the importance of being ' Fit for the fight to Overcome ': “ Before a trial -Being CONSISTENT , through regular Bible study , quiet time in God ' s presence and sharing with other Christians . During a trial - Being COURAGEOUS through acceptance , prayer , submission , trust , belief , obedience and faith . After a trial - Being a CONQUEROR through sharing the testimony , declaring the Word with boldness , being radical for Christ , and using authority and power given to us from God to do the greater things He said we will do .”
The points were reinforced as she played her original theme song from Isaiah 43:1-3 and Michelle Edwards sang . There was also a Choral rap which she wrote for the women to declare , some of the lyrics being .... ' To be Fit for the Fight , We must do it Right . To be Overcomers , let ' s be Fit for the Fight '.
