As Messiah, Jesus would undergo temptation. Jesus is in the wilderness not due to sin but out of obedience to God.

2. Luke 4:1-3
And Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned
from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit in
the wilderness for forty days, being
tempted by the devil. And he ate nothing
during those days. And when they were
ended, he was hungry. The devil said to
him, “If you are the Son of God, command
this stone to become bread.”

3. Luke 4:4-7
And Jesus answered him, “It is written,
‘Man shall not live by bread alone.’ And
the devil took him up and showed him all
the kingdoms of the world in a moment of
time, and said to him, “To you I will give all
this authority and their glory, for it has
been delivered to me, and I give it to him I
will. If you, then, will worship me, it will all
be yours.

4. Luke 4:8-9
And Jesus answered him, “It is written, ‘You
shall worship the Lord your God, and him
only shall you serve.’” And he took him to
Jerusalem and set him on the pinnacle of
the temple and said to him, “If you are the
Son of God, throw yourself down from
here,

5. Luke 4:10-13
for it is written, “’He will command his
angels concerning you, to guard you,’ and
“’on their hands they shall bear you up, lest
you strike your foot against a stone.’” And
Jesus answered him, “It is said, ‘You shall
not put the Lord your God to the test.’”
And when the devil had ended every
temptation, he departed from him until an
opportune time.
