No one gets it right every single time. Ask any worship leader who's been leading for any amount of time and they'll have their share of stories about when they came up short.

You're not always going to remember the words to the song, play the right chord, or start the song in the correct key. Mistakes happen but there are some benefits to failing when you lead worship.

Here are 5 benefits to failing when you lead worship:

1 | You learn

Failure is always a learning opportunity. Every time you get something wrong, you have the chance to examine it and see how you can make it right. That's the only way to truly get better. Use your failure as a learning experience!

2 | Even in your failure, God still works

You can see the sovereignty of God in your failure. God chooses to use you to fulfill his plan but he doesn't need you to make his plan happen. That means, even when you mess up, God still works. Let that weight lift off your shoulders - even in your failure, God still works!

3 | Humility

Failure is always a humbling experience. You realize that maybe you weren't as great as you thought you were. It's easy to get in a rhythm of thinking "I've got this!" after you've led worship for a while. What happens? You start to rely on your past experience to sustain you in the future. Failure shows us our utter dependence on God. Apart from Him, we can't do anything of significance.

4 | Authenticity

While it isn't recommended to fail on purpose just to seem authentic, failure does carry with it a sense of authenticity. It reminds your church that in the end you're just a normal person leading other normal people. We're all in this together and we all share the same struggles. Not getting it right all the time can be a connecting point between you and the other people in your church.

5 | Experience grace

Failure gives you a chance to experience grace. First from your church - I can assure you they aren't mad at you when you mess up. And secondly from God - he's not mad at you either! Use your failure as a moment to remember the grace that's been given to you.
