No.

It is blasphemy to consider yourself needed to accomplish God's sovereign will.

Isaiah 46:9-10: "I am God and there is none like me...saying 'My counsel shall stand, and I will accomplish all my purpose'."

But we are commanded to share the Gospel, and the topic of the discussion is how music is used to that purpose.

Well we should all just go our merry private lives, since after all God has no "need" of us. Let the gospel preach itself!

That's an extreme which Calvinism has sometimes gone to and it's silly. You can count on that if God created you, God wanted you to be there. Let the light shine from lamps of a billion different designs.
