The First Resurrection has already taken place and those who have been saved prior to the First Resurrection would have had their destiny already determined, or they wouldn't have gone up in the rapture. They have returned with Christ and ruled and reigned with Him on earth for a thousand years.
Do I misunderstand this passage?

In the light of comparing scripture with scripture you do.
Mat 16:24-28
Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it. For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul? For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall REWARD EVERY MAN ACCORDING TO HIS WORKS. Verily I say unto you, There be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.
In Jesus name
