It’s encourage an artist day! As it should be everyday!

A city is a person with a voice. That voice is her artists. When we listen there, we are hearing the prophetic aspect of her identity, the place where God is whispering, or yelling depending on the city.
That’s the part of the conversation you want to enter, as God is already there, speaking! The artist is the heart mouthpiece of a city.
If you stop her voice, she can’t even call for help! And all cities need help.
What she has to say is located there. When we love there, we are blessing the prophetic aspect of her identity.
The part which is expressing what’s going on with her, and the part which people hear-what gets broadcasted-Love and listen there. To read the pulse of a city, listen to her artists!
If you kill, directly or through neglect, the prophetic dimension (not all artist are prophets, but they do participate the prophetic part of identity!), you silence God, as the old saying goes (which isn’t really possible, the prophets will just move-both the receiver and transmitter!). So let the music play, encourage an artist today!
