I think 'magically' is a poor choice of words, unless you view God as a Genie.

Personally, I have no problem with either a literal acceptance of a 24 hr day in creation or 1000 year day.

God expressed Himself pretty well to Job, in regards to questioning what He can or can not do, don't you think?

Isaiah made some pretty poignant points in this regard, as well.
