Motion is displacement through space. It is measured in units of length divided by units of time (v=d/t). Newton has shown that a body subjected to balanced forces (resultant force equal 0) will have a constant speed (constant motion). A body with constant motion (or speed) has a constant energy equal to the sum of potential and kinetic energy.
Force is the measurement of effort. It is measured in units of mass multiplied by units of acceleration (F=ma). Newton has shown that a body subjected to a non-zero force will have a constant non-zero acceleration. A body subjected to a force will see its energy vary.

I think you mean Accelerating force, That is F=ma and
which simply says that for a give mass it takes a certain acceleration to create a certain force.
