If so, how can we find it?

It is not reliable to let people tell you what the bible says. Many people will make up stuff because they don't know what it says, and many will make up stuff because they wish it would not say what it says. You just have to read it for yourself. Read a chapter of Proverbs every day. Proverbs has 31 chapters so you can keep your place by just looking at a calendar. There is no religion or nothing in Proverbs and you don't have to believe anything. Just read to find wisdom. When you are comfortable with that, then read the bible from Romans to 2 Thessalonians over and over until you start to remember what it says. That is the part that applies to Christians.
The bible gives lots of prophecies. The book of Daniel describes what we call Armageddon, which is a battle at the Plain Of Megiddo. Jesus said those days would be like the days of Sodom and Gomorrah, but very much worse. We are seeing the beginning of that prophecy now.

The Revelation To St. John has messages addressed to Jews. That is why most Christians don't understand the book. Christians will all be in heaven attending the wedding supper of the lamb when those prophecies happen on Earth, so they don't apply to us.

There are many, but, here's my favorite. It's God's promise with a guarantee.
Revelations 21:3-5 With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say:" Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he reside with them, and they will be his people. And God himself will be with them. And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things will have passed away."
And the One seated on the throne said: " Look! I am making all things new." Also he says: "Write, for these words are faithful and true."
The bible gives us a lot of hope and promises for the future :
1) Psalm 37:10 says, 'Just a little while longer, and the wicked will be no more.' Imagine the peaceful world we will be in with wickedness gone forever.
2) Psalm 37:11, 'But the meek will possess the earth, And they will find exquisite delight in the abundance of peace.' Imagine only meek people living on the earth, it will be a place worth looking forward to live.
3) Psalm 37:29 says, 'The righteous will possess the earth, And they will live forever on it.' Will you like to live in this righteous new world, a paradise earth?
4) Acts 24:15 says, 'There is going to be a resurrection.' Have you ever lost a love one in death, maybe a friend or a relative? Imagine seeing them again fresh and vibrant, with the opportunity to live with them on a paradise earth forever.
5) Daniel 2:44 tells us , 'In the days of those Kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed. And this kingdom will not be passed on to any other people. It will crush and put an end to all these kingdoms, and it alone will stand forever.' Have you noticed the promise God gives us, that he have set up a kingdom or Government in the heavens that will rid all other manly governments and God's government in the heavens alone will be ruling over all mankind. Just imagine being overseer by God's perfect government? It will be the only perfect rule we could ever have from this government. No corruption, no biasness, no doubts, no wars, no pollution, no misjustice, no poverty, no racist and the list goes on and on. We will finally have a perfect life because a perfect government will be in full control and is capable of nothing less but perfect. Will you like to live under this perfect government rulership?
Revelation 21:4 tells us, 'He will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.' Imagine living without any reason for tears, pain and even death gone forever. Only God's government ruling over mankind will bring about such perfect conditions. Will you like to live amid such paradistic conditions?
Hope these few promises help you see the perfect future our dear God has been putting in place for us. Please take a few minutes and put yourself in each one of these promises.

There is a ton of prophesying in the Bible, so it'd be a wonder if the Book doesn't mention something about the future. Indeed, a fellow could dig up a few hundred references at least.
As for how you can find one of those messages, try Revelations... which foretells the arrival of bizarre monsters and Armageddon, culminating in boom boom pow. Sounds like fun, no?
