A Personal Testimony: The Awakening of My Son and the Unveiling of True Revitalization
By Jacinta Musaazi
For the past three years, I have walked a quiet and sacred journey with the Holy Spirit. This path has been marked by inner work, obedience, and spiritual alignment. In this place of stillness, I have learned that divine assignments are not unlocked by ambition, but through surrender. Each breakthrough follows a moment of instruction. Obedience comes first. Revelation follows.
While building and preparing the School of Apprenticeships, I began to notice a pattern. Every new threshold required a deeper level of trust. But what I did not expect was how personally this principle would unfold in my own home, especially through my firstborn son.
The Battle Within My Son
At eighteen years old, my son was silently wrestling with battles that were difficult to describe. He faced recurring illness, cycles of addiction, and a deep sense of isolation. The warmth between us as mother and son felt distant. When I offered correction or encouragement, it often landed as accusation. The connection between us strained, and I wept before God with one question: “Why is my child this way?”
Even through the heaviness, I noticed something else. His presence seemed to carry influence. Friends gravitated to him. Elders favored him. It was as though something significant had been placed upon his life, yet it remained buried under confusion.
As I continued to intercede for my own assignment and prayed for the doors of influence to open, I also prayed for him. Eventually, I placed the matter into God’s hands, choosing to wait and trust.
Then, unexpectedly, something shifted.
A Turning Point at the Hospital
One day, he fell seriously ill with intense headaches and respiratory symptoms. We went to the hospital expecting medical answers. The tests came back clear. Nothing was physically wrong. But what happened next was not medical. It was divine.
The attending doctor, a woman we had never met, became an instrument of awakening. With patience and quiet wisdom, she listened. She allowed him to speak without interruption. She welcomed his questions and made space for his curious and thoughtful nature.
Something broke open.
As we left the room, he turned to me with wide eyes and said, “Mommy, I want to be a doctor.”
At that moment, the Holy Spirit stirred in my heart.
I replied gently, “It is not medicine you desire. It is the nature you saw in her. Her kindness, her presence, her ability to awaken something in you. That is what you are drawn to. She reflected the part of you that has been asleep.”
He paused, and then with clarity said, “Mommy, I swear, there’s a part of me I never knew existed. But now I do. And I will never allow the enemy to stop me from being this person again.”
I saw a spark. I saw identity awaken. I saw my son.
An Apprentice in Awakening
In that moment, I understood that my son was not lost. He was an apprentice, just beginning to awaken. What had been hidden was now coming to life.
This is the journey of every apprentice. What they carry is already within them, but often hidden beneath fear, confusion, or silence. It takes the right person, someone walking confidently in their own identity, to reflect that truth and call it forth.
That doctor did more than treat him. She became a living mirror. She awakened what had been buried.
This is the power of mentorship. It does not push. It invites. It does not impose. It reflects. And in doing so, it restores.
That doctor was not just a physician. She was a living mentor—an example, a mirror whose presence awakened what lay dormant in my son’s life. This is the power of mentorship. It revives. It restores. It awakens what was forgotten or never known.
And this is the sacred design behind the School of Apprenticeships: to pair mentors with apprentices in such a way that what God placed within each person, gifts, identity, purpose, is stirred to life by divine alignment.
Apprentices do not become something new, they awaken to what they already carry. And through the careful, Spirit-led guidance of mentors, they begin to walk in the fullness of that original design.
At that moment, I understood with fresh clarity:
The School of Apprenticeships is not merely a training ground. It is a recovery center.
Why We Build
This is why the School of Apprenticeships exists. It is not just a learning space. It is a place of recovery. A space where identity is restored. A space where people do not become someone new, but awaken to who they have always been.
Apprenticeship is not about adding. It is about uncovering.
Mentors and apprentices are brought together by divine design. In that alignment, gifts are stirred, purpose is revealed, and legacy begins.
Before this vision touched nations, it touched my son.
Before it was a program, it was a promise.
And before it was public, it was personal.
This is what revitalization truly means.
This is the heartbeat of the School of Apprenticeships.
And this is why we build.
Our next RINT School of Apprenticeships intake is now open.
