Try wrapping it with mx.utils.ArrayUtil.toArray()
A single node in XML isnt neccessarily interpretted as an array, while
multiple nodes of the same name are. However, you can use the static
toArray method to treat the node as a 1 element array:
><mx:DataGrid id="moduleDatagrid"
>dataProvider="{mx.utils.ArrayUtil.toArray(testModel.message)}" />
