Many things are accomplished on the spiritual
level even though they are not visible on the
natural level.
The true order of things is:
first comes the spiritual,
then comes the natural.
The natural comes forth from the spiritual,
because the natural realm was created by
God, who is Spirit.
"By faith we understand that the worlds
were framed by the Word of God, so that the
things which are seen were not made of
things which are visible."
Hebrews 11:3
That means everything that is now seen
comes from that which is invisible, namely
the Word of God.
