Narcissists always have a higher opinion of themselves than is warranted. They see themselves as gods, that's why they think they are doing the lord's work, their own.
Sadly in the church today there is a mentality that says "as long as it works God is alright with it." This is patently wrong. God cares that we do things His way as shown to us in the Bible.
Just because something appears to work does not mean it was God who endorsed it.
If something is against the Bible then it should not be done even if it does appear to work.
Psalm 27:11
"Teach me Your way, O Lord,
And lead me in a level path
Because of my foes."
Exodus 33:13
"Now therefore, I pray You, if I have found favor in Your sight, let me know Your ways that I may know You, so that I may find favor in Your sight. Consider too, that this nation is Your people.”
Psalm 25:4
"Make me know Your ways, O Lord;
Teach me Your paths."
Psalm 86:11
"Teach me Your way, O Lord;
I will walk in Your truth;
Unite my heart to fear Your name. "
