Insightfully devised analogy to elaborate the debated concept of the spiritual world.
Many people do not believe in the existence of the spiritual world. However, this simple illustration is a first step into unraveling the spiritual realm. I have employed a scientific perspective.
The Unseen World - picture miniature atoms
Even life itself, whether in the form of a verdant flora or the noble visage of mankind, emerges from indecipherable substances - atoms & molecules. Verily, without these elemental constituents, life cannot be. In fact, nothing can subsist if they are exempted.
Scientists could not tolerate such inexplicable phenomena. Thus, they crafted sophisticated tools through which they could see the unseen - permeating the very fabric of existence. In actuality, those atoms and molecules are imperative for shaping and molding the "observable realities" - apprehended by natural eyes.
Thus, it is plausible to inexorably acknowledge the fundamental nature of the "things unseen".
This argument eventuates in implicating and stressing the need to believe in the spiritual world without a trace of doubt. Also, insisting that relevant tools (spiritual enlightenment/regeneration) are indispensable in revealing the charred (by iniquities) and far-flung (by unbelief) spiritual world - where fierce war is raging...
...with contestants seeking to influence the 2° reality. Much akin to the myriad configurations adopted by molecules and atoms, which find manifestation in the diverse forms of intermediary and ultimate creations.
The Copilot - The help of the Holy Spirit
The Bible considers the heavens multi-tiered: first-degree, second-degree, and third-degree heaven. From our standpoint, earth is the first-degree heaven, and the third is God's Kingdom - which is often extended to earth as "Ecclesia" or the church.
Satan has his operational base in second-degree heaven. This is where he intercepts prayer by erecting numerous barriers, it is here where he also hijacks and redistributes the blessings of the righteous by combating the ‘delivery angels'.
However, the story of Daniel (text) teaches us the necessity of persistence in prayer. It attracts more help from God; hence, empowering the ministering spirits to execute their duties - delivering our packages.
In this demonic headquarters, Satan and his cursed cohorts divert the blessings of the spiritually weak Christians - those who give up on prayer and discard it as futile.
So, the enemy siphoned off these blessings manipulatively through witchcraft and sorcery. He then gives them off to the ignorant seekers at a price.
So, pondering on the intricacies of this spiritual realm, you cannot just tread here anyhow. You need a guide, a Copilot, to direct you as needed.
The Holy Spirit is the promised helper of the believers (Act. 1.8. Once invited, he takes charge and assumes the role of directing us. In fact, the spiritual world is His domain. He is unfathomably equipped to perform His tasks.
To receive the Holy Spirit, you must first confess and repent your sins, and then believe in Jesus Christ (Rom. 10.9). You must believe in His substitutionary and co-death: that you have died and resurrected with Him (text) - as it is demonstrated in baptism.
TEASER
God forbid, if the world were to end in a few hours, let's say a massive asteroid is on collision course with Earth, how would you spend a couple of hours?
