Yeah, there are several explicit cases of God affecting people's free will in the bible. The Pharoah one is the most prominent and ridiculous. God sent plagues because he wanted to send plagues, but justified it to himself by forcing a man to be stubborn. What a dickmonkey.
The idea of God "having a plan" also does not fit with free will. Either the plan is so vague that any outcome will count as the plan succeeding, or else I have the choice to screw with the plan. How is he going to remedy my interference without overriding other people's free will, or getting personally involved and messing with stuff? Either way, it makes a laughing stock of his plan.
