We don't know the mind of God in everything. But we do know Him in part though His words in the Bible. We know what He expects of us and how He feels about sin. We know that "God is Love." We can know His will for us and our lives if we are open to the signs he gives us, the doors He closes to us and other doors He opens. We have the Ten Commandments in the Old Testament and the Great Commmision that Jesus gave along with everything else He taught the apostles.
If God is limited, He's limited in each of our lives depending on the faith we have in Him and how open we are to His leading. If it looks like He's limited as far as the way the world is going, even though there are many righteous men are praying, it's not in God's plan to do anything to change things JUST YET.
When we think of "impossible" things, we are thinking with our finite minds. We think of things that are impossible to us, therefore when we say "Can he do the impossible?" to US it may be impossible but NOTHING impossible for Him. He just doesn't deal in "silliness" like making the sum of 2+2 become 5. He figured out the sum of those numbers long before He brought us into being... Just like He has everything else worked out. You see, He can dream a dream and it comes into being.
Lastly, God is unfathomable; His mind, His will and His love. Like the hymn says:
Could we with ink the ocean fill
And were the skies of parchment made
Were every stalk on earth a quill
And every man a scribe by trade
To write the love of God above
Would drain the ocean dry
Nor could the scroll contain the whole
Though stretched from sky to sky
AMEN!
And this I prefer to accept on FAITH rather than try to reason it out. None of us can do that due of our humaness.
