Acts 7:44-50
'Our ancestors had the tabernacle of the covenant law with them in the wilderness. It had been made as God directed Moses, according to the pattern he had seen. After receiving the tabernacle, our ancestors under Joshua brought it with them when they took the land from the nations God drove out before them. It remained in the land until the time of David, who enjoyed God's favour and asked that he might provide a dwelling-place for the God of Jacob. But it was Solomon who built a house for him. However, the Most High does not live in houses made by human hands. As the prophet says: "Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool. What kind of house will you build for me? says the Lord. Or where will my resting place be? Has not my hand made all these things?"' (NIVUK)

In an attempt to stop Stephen speaking about Jesus, he had been accused of supporting Jesus in wanting the temple to be destroyed.  What Jesus actually said was, "Destroy this temple, and I will raise it again in three days." But He was speaking of His own body (John 2:18-22).  However, the charge gave Stephen the opportunity to talk about where God really lives.

“The word has been a great strength and has encouraged me to live a God fearing life especially in environments which are very challenging and has enabled me to face temptations successfully though I have missed many opportunities to rise in my career. ”
