How to Unlock Divine Intelligence & Favor in Your Life

What if the only thing standing between where you are and where God wants you to be is a wisdom problem? In this powerful guest message at ResLife Church in Grandville, MI, Dr. Dave Martin of Wisdom City Church (Troy, MI) shares a deeply personal and humorous wake-up call about what it truly means to be teachable. Following a sudden medical emergency that landed him in the ICU, Dr. Dave realized that God often uses our most uncomfortable moments to perform surgery on our perspectives. Drawing from Proverbs and the life of Jesus, this sermon breaks down why a teachable spirit always precedes success and spiritual growth. If you are ready to stop playing the blame game, recognize God's favor in the little things, and activate "Divine Intelligence" (DI) over artificial intelligence, this message is for you. Key Scripture References: Proverbs 4:7 (Wisdom is the principal thing) Luke 2:52 (Jesus grew in wisdom, stature, and favor) Proverbs 16:16 (Better to get wisdom than gold) Isaiah 53:6 (Our natural bend toward rebellion) NEXT STEPS Have you made a decision to follow Jesus?
