Jesus avoids sin?

This morning I was woken up very early (well 5:15am), and that is crazy early for me. I couldn't fall back asleep, so naturally I got out of bed and got ready for the day. I made some coffee and sat out on my porch and began to read. This morning I continued to read out of Luke ch. 3&4. In Luke 4, during the temptation of Jesus, I realized the importance of Scripture. Here is what I mean. We get a conclusive view of the 40days of Jesus' temptation in the desert with the culmination of the three that are recorded in Luke. 1)Turning stones into bread. (Jesus had not eaten anything in 40 days, I would have lost then and there) 2)worship the devil in return for authority and glory (which I find dumb, doesn't Satan know Jesus already has that?) 3)Jump and have your angels save you (Jesus says not to tempt the Lord). Most of us probably know this story, but what was so fascinating to me was how Jesus uses Scripture at His weakest point to avoid sin. 1)Deut. 8:3, 2)Exodus 20:3, 3)Deut. 6:16. This is such a great example of being faced with the opportunity to sin, and lets face it, Satan is a good tempter, but Jesus shows us it is no match for the power of God's Word.
I began thinking of times that I face temptation (which is daily) and how I respond to these struggles, whether it is lust, lying, anger, being fake etc. Do I trust my own strength to make an attempt in avoiding sin, or do I rely on God's Word? Most of the time I rely on my own strength, which is why I fail so often. I wonder what my days would look like if every time a pretty girl walks by I recited Ephesians 5:3 "But among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity, or of greed, because these are improper for God's holy people." NIV I know that the Holy Spirit would love to use the power of God's Word to fend off any type of sin and struggle through out the day. I will begin collecting verses to memorize so when I am faced with and struggle I can battle it with Scripture and not my own weak attempts. If you have any Scripture references that you use or would like to shoot my way please feel free to do so. Thanks
