Genesis
35:3 -- "...and let us arise and go up to Bethel;
and I will make an altar there to God, who answered
me in the day of my distress, and has been with me
wherever I have gone." (NAS)
I Kings 8:27 -- "But will God
indeed dwell on the earth? Behold, heaven and the
highest heaven cannot contain Thee, how much less
this house which I have built!" (NAS)
1 Chronicles 17:7-8 -- "Now,
therefore, thus shall you say to My servant David,
'Thus says the LORD of hosts, "I took you from the
pasture, from following the sheep, that you should
be leader over My people Israel. "And I have been
with you wherever you have gone, and have cut off
all your enemies from before you; and I will make
you a name like the name of the great ones who are
in the earth." (NAS)
2 Chronicles 6:17-18 -- "Now
therefore, O LORD, the God of Israel, let Thy word
be confirmed which Thou hast spoken to Thy servant
David. "But will God indeed dwell with mankind on
the earth? Behold, heaven and the highest heaven
cannot contain Thee; how much less this house which
I have built." (NAS)
Psalm 115:3 -- "But our God is
in the heavens; He does whatever He pleases." (NAS)
Psalm 139:1-14 -- "O LORD, Thou
hast searched me and known me. Thou dost know when I
sit down and when I rise up; Thou dost understand my
thought from afar. Thou dost scrutinize my path and
my lying down, and art intimately acquainted with
all my ways. Even before there is a word on my
tongue, behold, O LORD, Thou dost know it all. Thou
hast enclosed me behind and before, and laid Thy
hand upon me. Such knowledge is too wonderful for
me; it is too high, I cannot attain to it. Where can
I go from Thy Spirit? Or where can I flee from Thy
presence? If I ascend to heaven, Thou art there; if
I make my bed in Sheol, behold, Thou art there. If I
take the wings of the dawn, if I dwell in the
remotest part of the sea, Even there Thy hand will
lead me, and Thy right hand will lay hold of me. If
I say, "Surely the darkness will overwhelm me, and
the light around me will be night," Even the
darkness is not dark to Thee, and the night is as
bright as the day. Darkness and light are alike to
Thee. For Thou didst form my inward parts; Thou
didst weave me in my mother's womb. I will give
thanks to Thee, for I am fearfully and wonderfully
made; Wonderful are Thy works, and my soul knows it
very well." (NAS)
Isaiah 66:1-2 -- "Thus says the
LORD, "Heaven is My throne, and the earth is My
footstool. Where then is a house you could build for
Me? And where is a place that I may rest? "For My
hand made all these things, thus all these things
came into being," declares the LORD. "But to this
one I will look, to him who is humble and contrite
of spirit, and who trembles at My word." (NAS)
Matthew 5:34-37 -- "But I say
to you, make no oath at all, either by heaven, for
it is the throne of God, or by the earth, for it is
the footstool of His feet, or by Jerusalem, for it
is the city of the great King. "Nor shall you make
an oath by your head, for you cannot make one hair
white or black. "But let your statement be, 'Yes,
yes' or 'No, no'; and anything beyond these is of
evil." (NAS)
Acts 7:47-50 -- "But it was
Solomon who built a house for Him. However, the Most
High does not dwell in houses made by human hands;
as the prophet says: 'Heaven is My throne, and earth
is the footstool of My feet; what kind of house will
you build for me?' says the Lord; 'or what place is
there for My repose? 'Was it not My hand which made
all these things?'" (NAS)
