And then life as we know it will end and a new dawn shall arise full of His glory.
And there will be peace.
Daniel 7:9-11
9 “I watched till thrones were put in place,
And the Ancient of Days was seated;
His garment was white as snow,
And the hair of His head was like pure wool.
His throne was a fiery flame,
Its wheels a burning fire;
10 A fiery stream issued
And came forth from before Him.
A thousand thousands ministered to Him;
Ten thousand times ten thousand stood before Him.
The court was seated,
And the books were opened.
11 “I watched then because of the sound of the pompous words which the horn was speaking; I watched till the beast was slain, and its body destroyed and given to the burning flame.
Ancient of Days is a reference to God the Father as certified by the submission of “the One like the Son of Man” to Him and His role in judgment. Fiery flame symbolizes judgment. Its wheels refers to the chariot in which God rides to battle to exercise His sovereignty and to appear as Judge. The books record the names and deeds of those who will be judged. The idea that the fate of the wicked is fiery destruction is apparent in the Old Testament, but reaches its fullest expression in the New Testament teaching about hell. NKJ Bible.

Psalm 50:3 | Our God shall come, and shall not keep silent; a fire shall devour before Him, and it shall be very tempestuous all around Him.
Psalm 68:17 | The chariots of God are twenty thousand, even thousands of thousands; The Lord is among them as in Sinai, in the Holy Place.
