There is much debate on whether God gave man free will, or has already decided what he has decided.
If we look at the bible, as a whole and not just one portion, it reveals that we really don't have free will. It is a touchy subject, so hopefully I can do a good job of explaining it.
Adam and Eve were the only human beings with the gift of free will. After the fall, we inherited sin and can no longer do any good. Romans 3:10 says this: As it is written: “None is righteous, no, not one."
This tells us that we can't do any good. We have a sinful nature and, outside of Christ, we only have the will to do evil.
Saying that we have free will and there is no predestination/predetermination is like saying God isn't in control: We control our destiny. That is blasphemy!
God has complete control and already knows what is going to happen! He MAKES THINGS HAPPEN!
