It's important to realize that God, Heaven, and angels are all spiritual presences. They are living in another dimension. For all we know, Heaven could be one mile above the earth.
We know for certain that angels are guarding us at all times and standing at our sides even though we can't see them with our natural eyes. Man will never discover Heaven because Heaven can't be seen with our natural eyes, or with any man-made instrument.
Let's look at a verse of scripture that shows us the existence of unseen spiritual life. This section of scripture deals with the prophet Elisha. The King of Aram was trying to capture him.
Then he (King of Aram) sent horses and chariots and a strong force there. They went by night and surrounded the city. When the servant of the man of God got up and went out early the next morning, an army with horses and chariots had surrounded the city. "Oh, my lord, what shall we do?" the servant asked.God, and those in His kingdom, can't be seen by natural eyes unless the Lord opens our eyes.
"Do not be afraid," the prophet answered. "Those who are with us are more than those who are with them." And Elisha prayed, "O LORD, open his eyes so he may see." Then the LORD opened the servant's eyes, and he looked and saw the hills full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.
As the enemy came down toward him, Elisha prayed to the LORD, "Strike these people with blindness." So he struck them with blindness, as Elisha had asked.
