It's never actually been stated in the show where magic originated from. One thing we can say for certain is that there is some sort of control of energy when using magic. The best thing anybody can REASONABLY (I wrote it that way because some fans come up with wild theories) say is that when God made the universe, the energy that went into creating it was somehow tapped into, and the knowledge gets passed down throughoutt he years, decades, centuries, millenia, so on and so forth. You can also so that manipulating it can also being a spiritual superpower as well (it's been said how the soul is power itself, like a nuclear reactor). Interestingly enough, this idea is something that has been seen in other works of fiction, so while it's not particularly unique, it is the best and simplest way to make sense of it without having to use outlandish ideas.
