"Whisper Above My Shout" by Tyler Ratcliffe: Hearing God's Gentle Call


"Whisper Above My Shout" by Tyler Ratcliffe is a powerful reminder God's voice is constant and always clear, even when we're going through life's loudest storms. Tyler shares, "When I was writing 'Whisper Above My Shout', I kept coming back to this moment. We've all been there, where life feels loud, overwhelming, like you're crying out but you can't hear God's voice through the noise. And that's when I realized: He's never stopped speaking."

Tyler Ratcliffe - Whisper Above My ShoutGod doesn't whisper out of weakness—His whisper is an authoritative call that cuts through all of the noise and confusion we may be facing. Tyler emphasizes this in the lyrics: "I heard a whisper louder than the demons shout." He reminds us that no matter how loud the storm gets, we can count on His voice to always be louder.

Tyler shares that the inspiration for this song came from Mark 5, where Jesus encounters a man tormented by demons. Despite the chaos that was surrounding him, Jesus spoke with calm authority, freeing the man from his torment, a man who was surrounded by death, crying out day and night, and no one that could help him. Tyler writes from personal experience and acknowledges that it's the "demons inside" that are rattling our souls, and at the same time he affirms that "His gentle word gave back my life."

May this song encourage you to quiet yourself and listen for God's voice calling you back. God has better plans for you. He is with you, even when you feel lost in the noise and chaos of life. Reach out to Him, because when He speaks, darkness has no choice but to flee. That is the power of His voice! Give the song a listen—you won't regret it.

(Related scripture: Mark 5:1-20; Isaiah 43:18-19; Jeremiah 29:11)
