Day 180 Bible Reading: 2 Kings 15-16, Acts 19, Psalm 147 and Proverb 18:4-5 
In Acts 19:20 the word of the Lord is portrayed as a plant that grows. The word of God has such power it continued to increase and spread (Acts 6:7; 12:24; 13:49), and the number of believers increased rapidly. The power of the word in the spread of the Gospel comes from God himself. He is the one who overcomes the limitations and weaknesses of His witness so that the Gospel spreads. So when we share the Gospel, remember that it’s the Lord’s responsibility to speak to the heart of the person we’re attempting to reach. We are just His messenger, and He has given us the privilege to speak on His behalf.
"So the word of the Lord continued to increase and prevail mightily." – Acts 19:20 (English Standard Version)
"Father, give me a heart of compassion for those who do not yet know Jesus. Holy Spirit, be my source of strength and wisdom when I share the Gospel with others. Amen."
