That is a lovely vision. I see it as happening post the return of Jesus though. We have already been told what will happen in the not to distant future.

Satan will make war with the Saints and overcome them. Some will be imprisoned, some will be beheaded. Daniel 4 pretty much describes what happens to "those that do know their God".

Daniel 4:32 And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits.
33 And they that understand among the people shall instruct many: yet they shall fall by the sword, and by flame, by captivity, and by spoil, many days.
34 Now when they shall fall, they shall be holpen with a little help: but many shall cleave to them with flatteries.
35 And some of them of understanding shall fall, to try them, and to purge, and to make them white, even to the time of the end: because it is yet for a time appointed.

There is obviously great trouble coming, I can't shy away from it, it's just not there in me for my Lord to find me hiding under the bed from the boogey man when He returns. Maybe that is why I get too bold sometimes, too eager to battle for the truth. Too eager to be tested, that's bad of me in a way. I try to search myself to see if it's vanity, pride, or just the deep desire to please Him. I get very offended and protective of Him and He doesn't really need my meager efforts. In truth sometimes it is vanity, as if the ability to reason things out is any way my accomplishment. I beat myself up pretty good when I see it.

Anyway, I'm rambling here, thank you for the compliment, I would like to know where your vision comes from, and if there are scriptures that I can study to enlighten me on the vision you have for the future.
