Which verbs and phrases do we have for "make myself clear"?
How can I say: " to deliver my message" in a natural way?

The simplest and clearest way of saying these things is to use the words you have used.

"The Writer was unable to deliver his message."

or I am talking to some one and I can't tell him what I really mean.

Is "deliver message" a natural phrase?
Can you recommend something now?

'I asked the desk clerk to deliver a message to the manager.'

'I refuse to answer your questions. Do I make myself clear?'

Now I have difficulty expressing my thoughts and I say to you: Sorry if I don't find a good way to to make you understand what I mean. Do we have any expression or phrase for the bold part?

You could say: "I can't get my meaning/point across".
