I also realize that my thoughts are set in a history/time frame. God is not constrained by time. He can hear all prayers - everything is in the ‘now’ to Him.
A hard truth to understand, but so is eternity. I still wrestle getting my mind around the concept that God has had no beginning and will have no end or that heaven is everlasting.

I have 'meditated' over your words here to attempt to understand what you are saying. I do not understand. Christ told us in Mark 13:23 But take ye heed: behold, I have foretold you all things.

Granted He did not say any or all would understand all things, but, 'time' and what it means to God would be included in all things. Some things are appointed in His time, and Peter told us the method in which time is kept by the Heavenly Father. My personal opinion is there could be no such thing as 'faith' IF a date certain of specific events foretold would be was given. However, as it is Written, we can know the 'season' of events by what is taking place in the here and now. The reappearance of Sodom and Gomorrah as national culture is kind of a benchmark to me. And much is said about the reemergence of the modern era being even worse than the days of Sodom and Gomorrah.
