I think it is essential to God's nature as well as it is essential for all rational beings. Are you saying that God has or will never make a decision or communicated an idea. Even a simple sentence like "It is raining outside, therefore I should take an umbrella" illustrates how thoughts are arranged into a logical pattern. Just read the 10 commandments, there are all kinds of "therefores" and "so thats" (drawing a conclusion from a premise).
Additionally, the definition of omnipotence is the ability to do anything logically possible. If God is bound by this, wouldn't knowledge of it be essential?
All knowing being wouldn't need logic as it would know everything it doesn't have to do with decision. To use logic
you have to be limited in knowledge something a omniscient god isn't.
