@way2go prophecy is a good demonstration of how God always uses his omniscience and is aware of all choices and events beforehand. I think the psalm chapter drakess cited is also a beautiful demonstration of this.

Incorrect,purest, prophecy is different and again,Jehovah makes selective use of his power and ability. As for knowing what is said before we say it,that is not predestination. Also that situation is of a man in a relationship with God and is known by Him that way. It's a doctrine that contradicts the bible as unquiet pointed out. *
