Is Christian correct to believe in destiny? Does fate exist according to Christian teachings? Sometimes in my life I tried hard and persistently to do or change some things, but I always failed so I start to think that all are already predetermined and out control. What's your attitude about it?

That is slogan of chetnik movement.
In Christianity, term salvation is more often related to otherworldly and spiritual side of life. When I said predestined I mean things that we experience through this earthy material life. Sometimes I think that some things must happened and that these things were simply inevitable and that it's part of destiny. So there is question about relations between Christianity and Determinism.

I believe there is a scripture in the book of Jeremiah that mentions all things have been preordained.

I believe everything has been preordained, but that does not mean you do not have choices, it just means that God already knows what they are.

Catholicism and many other Christian rites (with a notable exception of Calvinism) reject predestination as a violation of the free will paradigm.
