Nor an entity with commanding and omnipotent powers.

"God" is early mankind's attempt to conceptualize what there was no science to explain.
Thunder/Lightning
Eclipses
Weather events

Who knows exactly when in human evolution someone decided to use the concept to influence others into a dogma of practice and beliefs. But we should label that the beginning of the end of civilization.

I submit that "God" is Physics. Physical science playing out perfectly without fail for time without end.
