What does it mean that God is omnipresent (everywhere)?

Quick answer

God is omnipresent means he is fully present everywhere at once. No place contains him; no place is without him. There is nowhere we can go that he is not.

"Where shall I go from your Spirit? Or where shall I flee from your presence?" (Psalm 139:7).

God’s omnipresence is not pantheism — he is not the trees; he is everywhere distinct and personal.

For believers, this is comfort: he is with you in every valley and every joy. For sinners, this is warning: there is no escape from his presence.
