I certainly believe unquestionably that God is omniscient, omnipotent, and omnipresent. However, as I was reading this I was wondering if

1) God knows all (omniscient) so He is not surprised by events and adapts (omnipotent) or if
2) God controls all events (omnipotent) so that He knows all things (omniscient).

This is more a mental exercise. I would say the latter but I'm not sure.

"1) God knows all (omniscient) so He is not surprised by events and adapts (omnipotent) or if"

That should read

1) God knows all (omniscient) so He controls all events accordingly (omnipotent).

God does not adapt to anything.
