I would agree God has to remain omnipotent. However, for different reasons. It does not contradict his omnipotence for him to cease to be omnipotent (i.e., there's nothing contradictory about an omnipotent being qua omnipotent ceasing to be omnipotent.) It does, however, contradict his nature. God is necessarily omnipotent, and so for him to cease to be omnipotent would mean he would cease to be God.
