In the biblical narrative, God did not literally "live" in Moses' tabernacle, but His presence was believed to dwell there in a special way. The tabernacle, also known as the Tent of Meeting, was constructed according to divine instructions and served as a sacred space where God would meet with Moses and the Israelites. The presence of God was manifested through the Shekinah, often represented by a cloud or fire, symbolizing His holiness and guidance. Thus, while God’s presence was associated with the tabernacle, it was not confined to it in a physical sense.

Moses was given instructions as to how to build the tabernacle.This is recorded in the Book of Exodus.
Moses
The tabernacle was built according to the instructions given by God to Moses, with the help of skilled craftsmen and workers chosen by Moses. It was constructed by the Israelites during their time in the wilderness as a place of worship and to house the Ark of the Covenant.
Moses was given instructions by God for the Tabernacle, the mobile shrine by which he would travel with Israel to the Promised Land.
The book of Exodus ends with the completion of the Tabernacle and the glory of the Lord filling it. Moses then enters the Tabernacle to speak with the Lord, symbolizing the presence of God among the people of Israel.
Answer from Scripture:Exodus 33:9-11a - And it came to pass, when Moses entered the tabernacle, that the pillar of clouddescended and stood at the door of the tabernacle, and the Lord talked with Moses. All the people saw the pillar of cloud standing at the tabernacle door, and all the people rose and worshiped, each man in his tent door. So the Lord spoke to Moses face to face, as a man speaks to his friend. [NKJV]
If you mean the Moses of the Old Testament in the Bible, "churches" as buildings did not exist in his time. Jews of his time went to the tabernacle (a large tent used for worshiping God), so that is where Moses would have gone.
The tabernacle consisted of the outer court, the holy place, and the most holy place. It was a portable sanctuary where the Israelites worshipped and offered sacrifices to God during their time in the wilderness. It was designed with specific dimensions and materials according to God's instructions to Moses.
After Moses assembled the Tabernacle, God's presence manifested itself in a Cloud of Glory (Exodus ch.40). Shortly after, when the first offerings were made by Aaron, God caused them to be consumed by a miraculous fire (Leviticus ch.9).
