    There's a difference between omniscience and omnipotence.

    The fact that God is omniscient means that He knows the questions you are going to ask before you ask them.

    The fact that He is omnipotent means that He could, if He wished to, select the questions for you and compel you to ask the ones He chose.

    However, the fact that He endowed us with free will means that even though He has the power to select your questions for you and compel you to ask the ones He chose, He will refrain from exercising that power.

    Of course He will still know what questions you will ask before you ask them, but that is very different from making your choice of questions for you and forcing you to ask the ones He chose.

    Unlike his omnipotence, His omniscience is not inconsistent with His endowment of you with free will.

    Some believe, "yes"

    I do not . . . but I do think He knows what I will ask . . . because he is already "there", in the future, where I will be at a later point.

    If he is all-knowing then yeah, we're stuck to his will.
