    (Daniel 9:25-27) And you should know and have the insight [that] from the going forth of [the] word to restore and to rebuild Jerusalem until Mes‧si′ah [the] Leader, there will be seven weeks, also sixty-two weeks. She will return and be actually rebuilt, with a public square and moat, but in the straits of the times. 26 “And after the sixty-two weeks Mes‧si′ah will be cut off, with nothing for himself. “And the city and the holy place the people of a leader that is coming will bring to their ruin. And the end of it will be by the flood. And until [the] end there will be war; what is decided upon is desolations. 27 “And he must keep [the] covenant in force for the many for one week; and at the half of the week he will cause sacrifice and gift offering to cease. “And upon the wing of disgusting things there will be the one causing desolation; and until an extermination, the very thing decided upon will go pouring out also upon the one lying desolate.”

    (2 Timothy 3:1-5) But know this, that in the last days critical times hard to deal with will be here. 2 For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, self-assuming, haughty, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, disloyal, 3 having no natural affection, not open to any agreement, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, without love of goodness, 4 betrayers, headstrong, puffed up [with pride], lovers of pleasures rather than lovers of God, 5 having a form of godly devotion but proving false to its power; and from these turn away.

    Prophets had the ability to know the future. Their ability to do so was God given. Some of the things were conditional. Such as the city of Nineveh. Had they not turned from their wicked ways the city would have been destroyed. On the other hand, those who's abilities were not God given were desrtoyed/killed such as those who claimed to speak to the dead. The following is from the book of Samuel, the 28th chapter.
    9 When thou art come into the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, thou shalt not learn to do after the abominations of those nations.

    10 There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch.

    11 Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer. (Necromancy defined: is a form of magic in which the practitioner seeks to summon "operative spirits" or "spirits of divination", for multiple reasons, from spiritual protection to wisdom. ...) This is not of God, of course.

    12 For all that do these things are an abomination unto the LORD: and because of these abominations the LORD thy God doth drive them out from before thee.

    I'm going to assume you're talking about future for us. In the Bible, there are far fewer places talking about the future than people would like to make you think. Revelation is NOT a book about the future, although it does contain, in the last few chapters, a generalization of major events that will happen, such as Jesus coming back and judging everyone in the final judgement. As far as I'm concerned, the Biblical future is definitely something to look forward to, but I also see the theme throughout the Bible that can be summed up in a common latin phrase: Carpe Diem. Sieze the day my friend. Live in the now. Know and experience the miracle of the present.
