And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.

Okay... this verse is referring to our reconciliation to God, whether Jew or Gentile. As believers we have the Holy Spirit given in us, at the time of salvation, therefore we all fit together (using our spiritual gifts or being encouraging to one another, in worship and service), as like a building/dwelling, being constructed, with Jesus Christ being the "corner stone" which is our foundation of belief, in unity with God as His church.
Reference these scriptures as well: I Corinthians 3:16 and Romans 8:9 Hope this helps.

i think it's talking about the body of believers as a whole. That we all fit together. We all are together one . as the body of Christ.

there's also verses saying about our body, like can the body work without the feet,,etc. no;matter what part we are we are put into the dwelling of Christ for his ministry.

i also love Ephesians 3:20

Rev 3:
20Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.

21To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.
