I continue to admire your overall effort, and find genius in examining Liber LXV as a collection of parables. And thanks; please keep this going as I remain ever, to read more of your thoughts.
But if I may inquire here for the sake of giving you more to consider, why not think of this whole passage as an illusion to the problem with Islam and Mohammed, specifically? That the mountain would come to him and his voice was too feeble to reach the ears of his god, there is much to glean from this. Even also, that it was his tired feet ("Cobbler, mend me this shoe that I may walk.") that held him down from his journeying.
Of the ego of Mohammed, that he would expect the Mountain (God) to come to him, and later, would come to God with his tail tucked between his legs; that really says something. And remember, Islam starts out with Christian influence; they being docetic in such a manner as they proclaimed no god could be crucified and made to die. Their reactive ideology developed out of the same winds; the Koran being but other desert stories not included in the Old or New Testaments.
"That thou wast with me from the beginning" becomes a Thelemic notion that God is not over there, or up there...or out there:--God is Me! (And God is you.) We are each that God of very God and there is no higher force above us; but that we create ourselves and are responsible for the creation of the Universe.
