—John 18:13-27

Peter declared that Jesus was the Messiah in Mathew 16:16. Just a little while later, He was being used by Satan to interrupt Jesus’s explanation of what would happen when he got to Jerusalem. So Jesus rebuked Satan. Jesus saw that Satan was trying to steal Peter away so He prayed for him. Peter was instructed to strengthen his brothers after he was converted (Luke 22:31-32). Peter must have felt dejected when he heard the crowing of the rooster that signified his denial of Christ. Amidst all the trials Peter encountered, he was instrumental to the development of the early church
