"Duck Dynasty" star Sadie Robertson is at it again with her inspirational messages. This time, the reality star shared a video on her social media page revealing just how much she values her fans and their salvation.

On her Instagram account (@legitsadierob), the "Live Original" teenager writes, "The other night in Tulsa was amazing! 17 souls saved!! Praise God! It got me pumped for the tour coming up next month, because this is the purpose of the tour."

"Whatever you see that night could change your life forever. It will mean a whole lot more than just a follow on Instagram or a retweet on Twitter. It's a moment that we get to spend together, and dig a little deeper than we ever could through the Internet," she says.

In the video, Robertson explains her reason for wanting to go on tour. She admits that she initially got distracted with her mission to spread God's Word when she catapulted to fame.

"When I first jumped into this whole fame, I was like, 'Oh my gosh, I'm getting so many followers; this is so crazy; I can be such a light.' But then I started missing what it really meant to bring light to the world," she confesses.

But after talking to God about her purpose, Robertson got back on track. She realised she would rather have a personal connection with the people she's trying to bring closer to God, rather than have them make her a social media sensation.

"I can be at home right now and I guarantee you that the 30 minutes I have to talk in front of you tonight are going to mean a lot more to you than 140 characters that I could have typed in one Twitter. Because that may get me some likes, some retweets, whatever, but that's just going to leave your mind, but whatever I say tonight this can spark in your heart and last forever. Don't miss that," she says.

Robertson ends the clip with the verse 1 Corinthians 15:58. It says, "Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain."
