Sadie Robertson: Dancing with the Stars 2014 contestant keeping close to God

Sadie Robertson is beyond excited to be hitting the dancefloor with Mark Ballas on Dancing with the Stars but while she's drumming up support for her bid to be crowned winner, she's not forgetting the 'God first' principle at the heart of her Duck Dynasty family.

When the reality star jetted out to LA to star in the show she didn't forget to pack her daily devotional, a gift from her mom Korie Robertson. 

"Packing for La thank you @bosshogswife for my devotional book to take with me. God comes with me no matter where I go," she shared on her Instagram page alongside a picture of the frontcover.  

Fans of Dancing with the Stars will be put out of their misery tonight when the season premiere kicks off at 8pm EST. 

Ballas promised something special from "Team Quack Attack" on his Twitter, saying: "Y'all ain't even ready for these moves". 

Robertson has also been rallying support on Twitter today, with a humorous spin on Ecclesiastes 3:4.

Whatever the viewers make of their performance, there's one person sure to pick up the phone to give the pair their vote and that's her boyfriend Blake Coward.
