Context of Matthew 26:35

33And Peter answering said to him, If all shall be offended in thee, I will never be offended. 34Jesus said to him, Verily I say to thee, that during this night, before [the] cock shall crow, thou shalt deny me thrice. Peter says to him, If I should needs die with thee, I will in no wise deny thee. Likewise said all the disciples also. 36Then Jesus comes with them to a place called Gethsemane, and says to the disciples, Sit here until I go away and pray yonder. 37And taking with [him] Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, he began to be sorrowful and deeply depressed.

Satan is active to lead such astray; they are most off their guard: God leaves them to themselves, to humble them.Read the comment
