There are two different resurrections. One to heaven and the general resurrection for humans on earth.
No one Jesus resurrected went to heaven but were resurrected back here on the earth where we are from just as God designed for us to be.
The other resurrection is only for the chosen ones (144,000) ( little flock ) who go to heaven to rule with Jes ...[text shortened]... umans here on earth.
Can you show me by scripture anything different or that this is not true?
Proof the Lamb and God almighty will be in the new Jerusalem on the new earth

Then I saw an angel coming down from heaven, having the key to the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. He laid hold of the dragon, that serpent of old, who is the Devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years; and he cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal on him, so that he should deceive the nations no more till the thousand years were finished. But after these things he must be released for a little while.
And I saw thrones, and they sat on them, and judgment was committed to them. Then I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for their witness to Jesus and for the word of God, who had not worshiped the beast or his image, and had not received his mark on their foreheads or on their hands. And they lived and reigned with Christ for a thousand years. But the rest of the dead did not live again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection. Blessed and holy is he who has part in the first resurrection. Over such the second death has no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with Him a thousand years.

And he hurled him into the abyss and shut it and sealed it over him, that he might not mislead the nations anymore until the thousand years were ended.” (Revelation 20:1-3; 12:12)
So this says the thousand year period starts when Jesus abysses the chained up satan. This has not happened yet as satan is still loose here in the vicinity of the earth causing us all kinds of problems.
