God's nature is what we try to understand it to be. It's how we label things. Like his signature... it's what, given what we've all worked out from simple deduction, we can expect him to do.

It follows from our logical construct of God. If he did create everything, then he is a positive force. Etc.. God could do whatever the hell God wanted. We could get very theoretical but it doesn't help understand God much.

It fits with the rest of the idea. Theology describes the whole of humanly perceived reality.

His nature is that he can do anything. His signature is what he's done in our reality.
