The root/origin of sin is DESIRE; "Temptation comes from our own desires, which entice us and drag us away. These desires give birth to sinful actions. And when sin is allowed to grow, it gives birth to death."- James 1:14-15.
The root of righteousness is also DESIRE;
"Then Jesus explained: "My nourishment (meat, food, *my appetite*) comes from doing the will of GOD, who sent me, and from finishing his work."- John 4:34.
And now abide faith, hope, and love, but the greatest of these is LOVE. Get to Loving the Truth and see Satan turn to jelly in your life.
The same way all we needed to do was *lust*, have a strong wanting for things, positions, power, etc, and Satan will manipulate the rest of the way, it's the same way all we need to do is *love*, have an intense attachment for the Truth of the Word of GOD, and the Holy Spirit will do the rest of the job.
You can pray, fast, work hard, suffer, etc, to overcome sin, but you will never be able to, until you love the Truth more than you lust for sin.
