Most words in your sentence were real words, so no complaint here.
What is "God's rating"?

Judging by this board (earth) and the pieces (living creatures) not a good rating (provisional), but other boards (other planets) and other pieces(aliens) the rating is subject to revision

God sees every possible analytical line. What ever you play he will follow along with you.

Zeus around 1000. Easily deceived. Hera 1500. Gambits get out of control. Athena 2600. Smart and mean. Apollo is good, but doesn’t play much.

That's a bit low. Engines are close to that and we don't even have massive tablebases yet.
I've seen estimate for the low to mid 4000s.
If I can trust my understanding of math and rating systems (a questionable assumption), then:
1. Glicko and Elo formulas don't have limits on ratings, so there's no hard cap.
2. Ratings depend on the pool of players and how initial ratings are established.
3. The greater the rating difference is between players, the less rating points the higher rated player gains after a win. If a systems rounds to zero points gained at a certain ratings difference, then after a certain rating, a perfect player will only gain ratings points from wins when other players start to get close to its current rating.
4. If the rating system doesn't round to the nearest single point, then there is no limit to a perfect player's rating; the actual rating will be limited by how many games it plays.

For the thought experiment we should assume a continuum of players from beginner to perfect with computer ratings to set the baseline (which are, or were, roughly aligned with FIDE).
A difference of 200 points means to score roughly 3 points out of 4 games (win = 1 and draw = 0.5)
A difference of 100 points means to score roughly 2 points out of 3 games.
From what I remember, people have estimated the perfect rating by equating draw percentage to strength and extrapolating until draws = 100%

God's rating doesn't exist
The question wasn’t meant literally in that sense, the question posed was inquiring what the highest possible chess rating is

The Second Coming will begin with Jesus joining up here and licking Magnus in 12 moves. This might sway some sceptics, but not all. I suppose the Big Guy knows every move made or to be made in every game played ever, which is an advantage.
god rated max

I assume the generic God of Abraham. That's why the "g" is capitalized.

Anyway, unless God was playing an engine, he would always win, because he could see every single move you would want to make. Reading minds and seeing the future AND having unlimited knowledge of every perfect move makes you essentially unbeatable. The only theoretical way to not lose is for stockfish to draw because Chess is always a draw if played perfectly.
Theoretically, he could just make the opponent make a mistake using mind powers since he's omnipotent. Although I think that'd be considered cheating.
Well, since none of them actually exist, that's not the best strategy.
