By looking at what they'd probably call empirical evidence, taking simple observations without differentiating cause or effect, a body of fact is accumulated.
If we saw food provided which we couldn't digest, for example, or rain that prevented the growth of plants then we could ask (justifiably I suppose) whether God was perfect or even competent. But that is not what we see.
Psalm 139
14 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.
KJV
Everything He does is perfect. Therefore God is perfect.
