There is a few arguments, but before going into these arguments...let's discuss non-argument faith. Most people who believe in God don't do so on arguments. They just feel it's obvious he exists like morality exists. They also feel they know he is the basis to morality, that they always wonder how Atheists can come to terms to believing in objective morality without God.
The arguments I doubt you will be convinced by them, but they do convince me. However, I believe in God before those arguments and I'm not sure if they even increased me in faith regardless of how convincing they are.
But if God exists, why do you think it's rational to assume he didn't give knowledge of himself to us? Why do you assume it's not possible to be given knowledge of God?
People use faith to justify their belief in Vishnu and other gods. Since you regard faith as a kind of proof, I guess you believe in Vishnu and many other gods, right? If not, then even you know that using "faith" is completely worthless for proving anything.
"A wise man ... proportions his belief to the evidence."
