Just a few things I can recommend to you. Your a primary melee character and not a caster. So you can have a lower Cha to start with. So going with the stat spread like. All level points in to Str. And use magic items to bump your Cha to cast your higher level spells.
Human
Str 17(15+2)
Dex 10
Con 14
Int 10
Wis 8
Cha 14
Now your trait. Why take something that can be coved by some one with normal access to that skill?
Recommended Trait: Reactionary : +2 Trait bonus to Initiative.
Skills:
Bluff: For when you need them to believe what you say.
Diplomacy: For when you want them to do what you want.
Linguistics: To talk to a wider verity of beings.
Perception: Well every one needs Perception.
Sence Motive: So you can tell if they lie to you or not.
I have one suggestion here.
Toughness: This is nice but not that nice there are other feet's that can help you much more. Replacing it with Improved Initiative will help you.
(Improved Initiative +4, Reactionary +2 = +6)
Extra Revelation: War Sight : Roll two dice for initiative keep one.
Revelation:
Skill at Arms
Spells: (You did not take stabilize. This can be very important at lower levels when you don't have allot of spells.)
Level 0: Detect Magic, Light, Purify Food and Drink, Stabilize
Level 1: Cure Light Wounds, Divine Favor, Bless
I'm planning to take Power Attack and Weapon Mastery at lvl 3, and War Sight and Improved Initiative around lvl 5-7.
Never ever take power attack unless your using it to get combat maneuvers. It is a wasted feet for a 3/4 BAB melee character. The amount of times this is useful for this type of build is very low.
Regarding Weapon Mastery, which weapon do you think I should use? I'm torn between the good old Great sword and pole arms (most likely Bardic he, it seems to fit the Russian feel of Brevoy). Greatsword has obviously more damage, but Reach could be and advantage against medium-sized opponents and for Trip attempts. Unfortunately there is no reason for me to take Combat Reflexes, which seems to be great with Polearms, and the lack of attacks (mostly AoO's) against adjacent enemies, other than the option of Spiked Gauntlets can hurt in certain situations.
Any two handed weapon will work well. If you removed toughness from your build picking up a exotic weapon at level 3 might not be a bad idea. Ether a elven curved blade for normal two handed, or the fauchard for reach weapon. Both of them are 1D10 Crit 18-20/X2. So at level 8 with your weapon mastery you crit 15-20/X2. Pick your flavor of destruction. IMO reach weapons are better option for divine melee characters.
Also, are there any good multiclass options to dip a few levels or maybe any PrC-s for a Battle Oracle? I know that a level Barbarian is awesome.
The over all advantage is not worth the delay in spell level access. This is true for all full casters. There are some times when it works for RP reasons. Only a few times dose it ever work for optimization.

Power attack is a positive dpr for this character.
...Never ever take power attack unless your using it to get combat maneuvers...
This is only true for non-battle sword and board oracles as the damage increase from a one-handed weapon does not justify the cost. For two-handed weapons this feat is still quite good.
Starting with level 2 you can use Enlarge Person on yourself and with it Power Attack becomes overkill!
