Summary
The speaker emphasizes that true faith is based only on what God has explicitly promised in Scripture, not on things believers desire or that are merely given to them. He points to Genesis 15:6, noting that this is the first instance in the Bible where the word 'believed' appears, referencing Abraham's faith in God's promise despite his circumstances. The core message is to distinguish between God's promises and other blessings to avoid deception regarding the nature of faith.

Faith That Comes By Hearing God - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Feb 9, 2014
The speaker emphasizes that the New Covenant, established at Pentecost, supersedes many practices of the Old Covenant, requiring believers to move beyond mere intellectual understanding. True understanding of the New Covenant comes not from study alone, but from being filled with the Holy Spirit, which changes one's life, attitude, and speech. Ultimately, the message stresses that faith must be heart-felt, trusting in the Lord rather than relying on one's own understanding or intelligence.
