Ephesians 3:12
[12]in whom we have boldness and access with confidence through faith in Him.

Heavenly Father, we are here again, take charge, we appreciate you for all your deeds in time past, be glorified and be glorified again now in our midst. Cleanse us Father, of every impurity in our lives, make us vessels onto honor; useful to you sanctified for every good work. Let us our this words to practice so men may see and glorify you. Do it again Father. Amen.

Brethren, the key words in this session are 'in whom' and 'through faith in Him'. If you read the preceding passages you will discover that the pronouns there are place values for Jesus Christ. Therefore, 'in Christ' and 'through faith in Christ'.
To the body of the text, it says 'we have boldness and access with confidence'.
To tie this together: We have boldness and confident access to God when we are in Christ and have Faith in Christ.,, This paints a very good picture of the relationship between faith and works. The 'in whom' refers to conscious obedience to God's words. This is essential for entering into God's presence as all form of disobedience is sin and Good detests sin.
The next is 'through faith in Him' This is a clap to the fact that you works can only get you so far, ultimately, only God's grace allows a man to be acceptable in His sight.
In as much as we as Non Israelite followers of Christ emphasize faith, conscious effort soul not be over looked or understated. We have a part to play, as God does.
Strive. Run your race with perseverance, let nothing stop you or distract you from Christ.
