That statement is meaningless. 'Always' has a temporal context and 'there' has a spatial one. Something that has 'always been there' is by definition inside space and time.
Admittedly that statement was poorly worded. Aquinas said it much better. I'm paraphrasing..."God is not in time. God is the cause that time is. Nor is God in space. God is the cause that space is." Something to that effect.
