Having just Davened (see Seforno) for bread, why did Moshe not wait for a reply before proceeding to issue instructions?

1.

Seforno #1: He instinctively knew that his prayers had been answered, because they came out fluently. 1

2.

Seforno #2: Because Moshe Rabeinu's Tefilos on behalf of Klal Yisrael were always answered. 2

Seforno: As the Gemara in Berachos 34b, says with regard to R. Chanina ben Dosa.

Presumably that is what the Seforno means when, after the previous explanation, he adds 'O Yoser mi'Zeh.'

Where exactly was "Lifnei Hashem"?

1.

Rashi and Seforno: In front of the location where the Cloud of Glory, containing the Shechinah, was about to appear. 1
