In her YouTube video titled, "The Breakup," the reality television star, author and social media celebrity said she hoped to serve as an example for people enduring a tough breakup.

"I know it's weird to say, but I want to be an example for y'all in y'alls break-ups, because I know a lot of you are going through the same thing as me — we're both hurting the same way, we both feel that drop in our stomach the same way," she said in the video. "I know exactly how you're feeling."

Although Robertson admitted her breakup was hard, she also insisted that God had a purpose for her breaking apart from former boyfriend Blake Coward after two years.

"Right now it would be easy for me to say a month ago, I broke up with Blake and it was the worst day of my life. But instead of saying that, I'm saying we broke up, it was horrible, it was sad, it pulled my heart out but God has a purpose for me," she said. "...No matter what the outcome, take the things that you know you can work on, grow in that, and be better for the next person. Be better for the person that God has planned and prepared for you."

At the end of her video, the famous Duck Dynasty star decided to pray for viewers experiencing a breakup.

"Dear God, I pray for all the broken hearts out there tonight, God. I just pray for each girl out there who is hurting because of a relationship that ended and each guy out there that's hurting because of a relationship that ended, because it's really hard being in this stage of life," Robertson prayed. "But God, we know that we're only put through this because eventually we're going to end up with the right person that you planned for us God. And that we should stop hurting and look to You because You can fill our hearts with peace."

Robertson went on to pray that people would focus on God's love and peace instead of the negative feelings associated with breakups.

"You can fill our hearts with that comfort, You can fill our hearts with that love God, You can make us whole when we don't feel whole at all, You can make us complete when we fill nothing but empty. God you are so good and you have a perfect will for us and we shouldn't question that," she prayed. "God help us to all remember that You are good at all times — all the time you are good — and that we don't have to be bound by bitterness. We can move forward"

A number of people flocked to Twitter to let Robertson know just how much that prayer and video affected them.

"After your breakup vid on YouTube and prayer, I literally felt the Holy Spirit! God is doing great things in you," one fan wrote in a message shared by Robertson.

Another fan had a similar response.

"Literally never thought I could have a moment with God by just watching @sadierob YouTube videos so awesome," the fan wrote.
