Oxen Apparel was birthed from the words of Yeshua (Jesus) when he said “Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me…” - Matthew 11:29.
OXEN are a symbol of strength and power. They are known to be 'the beast of labor.' They are used to plow through hard soil, roots, and rocks, all to make fertile ground for seeds to be planted, watered, and eventually harvested. OXEN are not in the fields to accomplish their own mission, or vision. They work hard only to accomplish the mission of their master.
When a master receives a new calf, he doesn't immediately throw a yoke on it and put it out in the field to do work. The first thing a master does when he gets a new OXEN is to put a brand on it. That brand is simply a symbol to identify who the OXEN belongs to.
Oxen Apparel represents that brand. It's not a fashion statement, it's not a movement, it's not a trend. It is simply symbol of who we belong to, and who we work for.
After OXEN are branded, a ring is placed through the most sensitive part of the animals body... the nose.
For the rest of that OXEN's life, he will spend time with the master, learning his voice and his commands. However, OXEN are often stubborn during the training process, but the master is loving, gracious, and patient. When his OXEN go off track, the master will gently lead them back with the slightest tug of that nose ring.
That ring is what our symbol represents. When you wear it, we pray that you will be just as sensitive to be led by the masters voice and His commands.
It is our prayer that God would raise up OXEN that will have the courage, passion, and wisdom to do His work.
“...the harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few.” - Matthew 9:37
