Plus if I do ask, I have no way of determining what happens next (if), is just in my head or not. Since you are the one claiming a direct line to him, you are in a much better position to ask him things.
I would suggest that you ask him those questions directly. If he doesn't answer then there are three possible explanations: Either he isn't there; He is there but he isn't interested in talking to you for some reason; or He's there but your personal prejudices against certain types of ideas and information, for example conversational hints that can't be stated outright, are making you unable to see read and respond to his overtures. All three of those propositions are non falsifiable from a scientific perspective, and though you may consider one more likely than the others, this says absolutely nothing about which one is factual. That's why this post is labeled under philosophy.
If he is an omnipotent being, and has interfered with nature many times, and wants us to believe in him, then proving his existence to us should be trivial for him. Heck he could just beam the knowledge to everyone and be done with it. He is supposedly communicating with millions of believers already (while also giving them misleading information).
