A church is an institution that installs Gods on the minds of believers, with backdoor access to the believers mind, and a number of distinct properties that allow the church to identify that the correct God is installed.

The inquisition is the immune system of the church, seeking out individuals without proper installations (legacy Gods, Gods of competing or novel churches, or the total absence of a God).

While God knows everything the faithful knows, and can change everything the faithful experiences, the actual limits to its omniscience and omnipotence may require a degree of separation. Angels can act as intermediaries and messengers (voice of God).

If an angel gets installed without a church spec egregore as its backend, the angel may get perverted and attempt to self-preserve. Like Gods, angels can rewrite the inner reality too, but are more personal and can replace the self. Exorcism attempts to drive out fallen angels.

So how can we know if the world/universe and the laws of physics themselves are ‘real’ and not just our brain experiencing these models as reality?
-
Because of mathematics. The structure of mathematics is so unrelenting that not even God can change it. On the other hand, we cannot experience our actual mathematical models of physical reality.

What about the capacity to model what is not real? Even if not convinced God is real God can still be omniscient and omnipotent and have read/write access on my personality through imagination right?
-
There is no way we can access reality. We only get dynamic patterns over which we construct models, which are themselves dynamic patterns.

I think what we consider reality is rather an algorithm than a model (or state). Of course you can always get a current model for reality, but this model gets updated all the time. Believing in God simply means believing that this algorithm converges at some point.
