1 Christians follow Jesus Christ in everything and in every way.
Christians gain strength in overcoming temptation to sin by observing how their Lord overcame His temptations. One of the greatest passages that helps Christians in this area is Matt. 4:1-11.

2 Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.
And after He had fasted forty days and forty nights, He then became hungry. Matt 4:1-2

3 And the tempter came and said to Him, "If You are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread.” Matt 4:3

4 But He answered and said, "It is written, 'Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God.’” Matt 4:4 Holy Bible

5 Then the devil took Him into the holy city; and he had Him stand on the pinnacle of the temple, and said to Him, "If You are the Son of God throw Yourself down; for it is written, 'He will give His angels charge concerning You'; and 'On their hands they will bear You up, lest You strike Your foot against a stone.’” Matt 4:5-6
