The prophet may generate the prophecy on his own or may receive it from another power.  The fulfillment of the prophecy may be within the prophet’s ability to control, or that of the higher power, or may exceed both.  These alone give us a number of combinations.

What I’m trying to say is that your conclusion only seems to follow from certain types of predictive ability.  If the events prophesied are beyond the control of the prophet or of any power that gives him his prophecy, then I would tend to agree with you that somehow the event was destined to happen.  If the events prophesied are within the power of the prophet, we don’t even give it a second thought.  In fact, we all give these types of prophecy.  For instance, I may tell you that I am going to Buffalo for Thanksgiving.  If it turns out that I do in fact go to Buffalo next Wednesday, no one will care, because I had reasonable certainty that I could accomplish the prophecy.  There are other possibilities in between.

If the prophet receives his message from another power, whether he himself realizes it or not, then we must question whether that higher power is effecting the fulfillment.  If so, it may have nothing to do with fate at all.
