But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren. Luke 22:32 Jesus instructed Peter to get back into ministry after he repented of his denial. If Jesus had not given Peter this command, many people might have doubted that Peter should be in a position of leadership. Indeed, Peter himself must have doubted whether or not he was fit. After Jesus resurrection, the Lord again admonished Peter three times to serve Him by ministering to His sheep. In the context of Luke 22, Peters faith was shaken and he denied the Lord but did not reject Him. Jesus admonition to Peter was that when he turned back again to Him (converted), he was to strengthen the brethren.
