Something that we all have to be prepared for is Jesus coming down to earth for the Second Coming. This is easily one of the hardest people to conceptualize in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, because it hasn't happened yet. Everything else we learn is history. This is the one prophecy we have to look forward to. We have no idea when or where or how it's going to happen, but we do have signs given to us from earlier prophets so that we can be on our toes, and we have a list of things we can do to prepare. The two lists I'm going to give you are the signs and the To-Do List.
Signs:
1. "Nations shall rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom. (Basically war.)
2. "...and great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences, and fearful sights.
3. The Saints will be persecuted..
4. We will be betrayed both by parents brethren kinsfolk and friends. Some of us will be put to death.
5. We will be hated of all men because of God.
BUT not a hair on our heads shall perish. IF we do this one thing.
To Do List
"Pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass and to stand before the Son of Man."
The Second Coming will come. The best thing we can do to prepare is pray, follow the commandments and strive to be like God.
