They risk everything for their faith, they are completely focused on one thing only:   *They urgently need the tools to translate God’s Word into the heart language of their people. The tools we call Technology for National Translators (TNT).*   These believers know, deep in their hearts, that when someone discovers the Word of God in the language of their heart, they are transformed. God’s Word is powerful! Powerful for salvation.   *For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God,* 2 Corinthians 10:3-5 (NIV) - Please fervently pray for the safety of our fellow Christians around the world. - Pray for health and strength for each one who is being physically persecuted. - Pray that they will remain strong in their faith and in the power of Jesus Christ. - Pray that others will join us in responding to this beautiful God-given opportunity, and that Bible translation will go smoothly and safely in that difficult place. - Most of all, pray that God’s Word, in the heart language of the people, will “not return void,” drawing lost souls by the power of the Truth to new life through faith in Jesus Christ. ## Subscribe to Our Blog ![wycliffe-rev](https://blog.wycliffeassociates.org/hs-fs/hubfs/5by5%20Assets/wycliffe-rev.png?width=724&name=wycliffe-rev.png) [1-800-843-9673](tel:1-800-843-9673) | [tel:1-800-843-9673](tel:1-800-843-9673)[1.800.THE.WORD](tel:1-800-843-9673) [web@wycliffeassociates.org](mailto:web@wycliffeassociates.org) 11450 Translation Way / P.O.
