What God did before we were aware to to speak His Word. What he spoke included all of the blessings and all of the curses possible (as contained in scripture) for us. What we are receiving here and now is a mixture of blessings and cursings.

In accord with all of what God has already said and how we respond to what He has said we will be blessed more or cursed more.

When we are cursed it is because we choose to be cursed (by our response to the curses promised). Such curses may cause the removal of blessings that we have already received.

We all started out with certain blessings from God when were born naturally to our natural mothers. By moving in the right direction [toward God] we can receive more blessings.

God does not change and His Word does not change, but our response to His Word will change according to blessings or cursings that we already have and according to how our whole beling responds to that Word. Salvation is not set in concrete, but rather it is one of those blessings God has for those that respond to His Word continuously in the manner that He desires.

Some blessings we received before we were even able to make any decisions. This is most certainly unwarrented or unearned favor from God. Such grace continues to be given.

We are unable to respond to God as He would desire without help. He made available to us all of the help that is needed to do all that He would have us to do. All we have to do is ask:

"Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:" Matt 7:7
