Is it possible to change the font size in a msgbox or input box using VBA in
powerpoint? I've searched through the discussion and couldn't find the answer
I could use.

Example
Msgbox "All are measured" & Chr$(13) & _
"service elements.", vbInformation, "Service Elements"

No, the font size is pulled from the system font size. This is set by the
system, not the presentation.

Start => Control Panel => Display => Appearance => Advanced => Message Box
=> Font settings

However, there is no reason that you can not create your own 'faux message
box' using User Forms in VBA.
