Suppose you had the ability to look back and watch your entire past in as much detail as you want, knowing you can't change it. Would that make all the multiple choices you made in the past any less free? That's all omnipotence means. To know all things and events. There's no restriction on freedom there to those who are making choices. I don't understand why people can't wrap their heads around this.
[edit]
Your argument only includes looking to the past? Where is your argument for god seeing the future, and knowing humans future actions? If they are known prior to the human actually taking the action, then the human has no free will and is only following what god has for seen, what god has commanded. To the human there is only the pretense of free will.
Don't forget psalm 139:4 and isaiah 46:9.
I can't wrap my head around it because it is a faulty premise.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
