There is a training process in listening to God. He continually connects with us, but we don't always trust what we're hearing. It takes time to build up (and rebuild), and I'm sure God knows our weaknesses.
We tend to take messages very seriously, so sending a vague message without a mandate or clear direction might take some responsibility off our shoulders when we are feeling so worried about missing the mark, but not quite trusting what we hear.
Our lives are full of messages that are not "thus saiths."
This numbers phenomenon looks like, "Look at the time, explore the avenues of building meaning into it, practice prayer for understanding and for others involved, dig deeper into the scriptures, see what it takes to find the mind of God."
I don't get much with numbers, but the repeated phenomenon reminded me of a waking vision I had, that repeated every day for a couple months.
It was hard for me to discern whether my brain was repeating it, or God was reinforcing the importance. I just continued to pray, and talk with people about things they have seen that coincide. But I still wonder if the vision's event will happen, a few years later.
I would be interested in hearing more about these open-ended messages, to see how people resolve it.
