Explanation:
so here is your answer....
True faith entails knowledge of what God promised. It is the assurance of things hoped for (Heb. 11:1). A hope is an expectation based on a promise of God. To have faith for something God did not promise is presumption. Usually, when the word faith is mentioned in the bible, it is speaking of faith for salvation. The promise of God concerning salvation is that God provides it free of charge to those who do not try to earn it. This knowledge is critical for true faith.
Knowledge may be a definite promise from God's word, or it may be based on the general nature of God. For example, in Matthew 6:30, Jesus rhetorically asked, "If God so clothes the grass of the field ... will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?" To my knowledge, there was no definite promise in the OT that God would "clothe us". So Jesus is asking us to have faith based on the general knowledge that God cares for us.
At this point, I'd like to caution people about basing their faith on direct revelations from God. Not that God is unable to directly reveal things to us, but our minds are also able to play tricks on us. Faith must be based on knowledge of God or something God definitely promised. Faith cannot be based on what we covet.
hope it helps...
