The font size taken in parameter is not the size in point (1 point = 1/72 inch) but the font's height in pixel. 
Therefore you should do a conversion to have the correct font size if you want to modify a document destined to print.
For example, if your document's resolution is 300ppi, you should add a 25/6 multiplying factor to your fontsize in order to have a correct behaviour of the font.

<?php

$sourceFile='in.jpg';

$textWrite='God is Great';

$x=50;

$y=50;    

$fontColor='#000000';

$fontSize=34;

  

$colorPix=new ImagickPixel ($fontColor);

$image=new Imagick ($sourceFile);

$draw=new ImagickDraw();

        

$draw->setFontSize($fontSize);//Sets the font pointsize to use when annotating with text



$draw->setFillColor($colorPix);//Sets the fill color to be used for drawing filled objects

            

$image->annotateImage($draw,$x,$y,0,$textWrite);//Annotates an image with text



$image->writeImage('out.jpg');//Writes an image to the specified filename
