1 Chronicles 28:2,6-7 “Then David the king stood up upon his feet, and said, Hear me, my brethren, and my people: As for me, I had in mine heart to build an house of rest for the ark of the covenant of the LORD, and for the Footstool of our God, and had made ready for the building: And he said unto me, Solomon thy son, he shall build my house and my courts: for I have chosen him to be my son, and I will be his father. Moreover I will establish his kingdom for ever…” New Testamant reference to Jesus, the son of David: Matthew 22:44; Mark 12:36.
Psalm 99:2-5 “The LORD is great in Zion; and he is high above all the people. Let them praise thy great and terrible name; for it is holy. The king's strength also loveth judgment; thou dost establish equity, thou executest judgment and righteousness in Jacob. Exalt ye the LORD our God, and worship at his footstool; for he is holy.”
Psalm 132:7-8 “We will go into his tabernacles: we will worship at his footstool. Arise, O LORD, into thy rest; thou, and the ark of thy strength.” The place of worship was the Ark of the Covenant in God’s Temple.

Acts 7:49 “Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool. What house will ye build me? saith the Lord: or what is the place of my rest?”
Enemies as footstool
Psalm 110:1 “The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.”
Matthew 22:41-44 “While the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them, Saying, What think ye of Christ? whose son is he? They say unto him, The Son of David. He saith unto them, How then doth David in spirit call him Lord, saying, The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool?
Mark 12:3 ‘For David himself said by the Holy Ghost, The LORD said to my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool.”

I Corinthians 15:24-26 “Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power. For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet. The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death. For he hath put all things under his feet.”
Hebrews 10:11-13 “ And every priest standeth daily ministering and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins: But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God; From that time he waits till his enemies be made his footstool.” Jesus sat down at God's right hand after offering one sacrifice for all time, symbolizing the complete and final payment for sin Jesus made on the cross for all who come to faith in Him.
