The christian must know his future. He is a person who already understands what his future is because it is written in the Bible.
John 14:29 (KJV) And now I have told you before it come to pass, that, when it is come to pass, ye might believe.
The Bible is not only a book of doctrines. It is also a book of prophecies. The prophecies were given to guide us through our lives on earth. We are not going to be taken by surprise when these things happen. The prophecies are to make us prepare ahead before those things come to pass.
The intent of the prophecy is so that when it comes to pass we might believe. Prophecies are given so that we might believe. So, we have the power to shape our future. We are not living our lives on whatever will be, will be. We can shape our future with the help of God.
Proverbs 16:9 (KJV) A man's heart deviseth his way: but the LORD directeth his steps.
A man’s heart deviseth his way. This means that man has the power to determine his future. We can determine our future. We can choose what we want to do with our future. God is the one who directs the steps that we take. We decide what we want to become and God guides our steps towards that.
