If you say that God is not a fixed point, then that means you can engage on a conversation. Glad to see it.

Now, if that particle is at different times and locations in it's travels, is there any point at which God is unable to deal with it? Or would you say that God can oversee both different times and different places?

God travels with each particle in existence as it moves through time and space.

God is "aware" of each particle at all times. He knows the past and future of each particle and does not leave the side of that particle as it expends its allotted time of existence.

The trajectory of each particle is known to God from before existence. He was and is and always will be the architect of every particle's trajectories for all time. And He's also the creator and controller of every force that works upon those trajectories, guiding all to His satisfaction.

What you seem to be postulating is that the past, present and future might be separate entities in the mind of God, and thus He can exist concurrently in three dimensions, stepping from one to another in order to effect a "change of course;" "answer" a prayer; make a "decision."

Take one step back to focus on a still-wider view. God knows all of that, and has factored it into his plan for history from before time.

Anything you offer, the response is the same. God already knows that; God already decreed that; God already willed that.

Nothing is unknown to God.

The very reason Roddenberry wrote "Star Trek" was because he despised the idea that God was in control of him.

It's satanic to believe otherwise, however.
