This is the story of God's call for Moses' leadership. This was unexpected in Moses' eyes for he did not feel like he was able or worthy to take on such a role. He called to God's attention his unworthiness, lack of authority, speech difficulties, etc. But none of this mattered to God. He trusted that Moses despite his shortcomings.
I find that in this chapter, the aim was to give people with similar self-doubts great hope. It shows that even someone with self-claims to faults like Moses is a leader in God's eyes. Inspiring in itself, I thought immediately of those of my friends who have recently been called to leadership for God. They all have doubts, but they are doing the will of God and spreading his word. It's not an easy task, but God and his faith in you is enough to push through.
