"The Father has a body of flesh and bones as tangible
as man's; The Son also; but the Holy Ghost has not a body of flesh
and bones, but is a personage of Spirit. Were it not so. The Holy
Ghost could not dwell in us."
(Doctrine & Covenants 130:22)
"His powers of transferring Himself from place to place are
infinite; plainly, however, His person cannot be in more than
one place at any one time. Admitting the personality of God,
we are compelled to accept the fact of His materiality; indeed
an 'immaterial being', under which meaningless name some have
sought to designate the condition of God, cannot exist, for
the very expression is a contradiction in terms."
(The Articles of Faith by James E. Talmage
p43)

"And the king said: Is God that Great Spirit that brought our
fathers out of the land of Jerusalem? And Aaron said unto him:
Yea, he is that Great Spirit, and e created all things both in
heaven and in earth. Believest thou this? And he said: Yea, I
believe that the Great Spirit created all things, and I desire
that ye should tell me concerning all these things, and I will
believe thy words."

"God is a spirit: and they that worship him must worship him

"Behold my hands and my feet, (Jesus speaking) that it is I
myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath nor flesh and bones,
as ye see me have."
(Luke 24:39)
"Can any hide himself in secret places that I shall not see
him? saith the Lord. Do not I fill heaven and earth? saith the
Lord."
(Jeremiah 23:24)
"Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee
from the presence?
If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in
hell, behold, thou art there.
If I take the wings of the morning and dwell in the uttermost
parts of the sea;
Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold
me."
(Psalms 139:7-10)
