IF you have not activated iCloud Messages and IF they are in your latest backup you can restore from that backup. Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch from a backup - Apple Support You will lose any data added since he date/time of that backup.

If you activated iCloud Messages there is no way to restore them. Restoring your iPhone as a new device just got rid of the rest of them. They are gone. You can get your call history from Verizon.
Yes, you activated iCloud Messages. Right now you have it turned off. You need to turn it back on to get them on your iPhone.
My messages were in iCloud.
Went to a Verizon store where I bought my iPhone XR.
Determined that we should follow the “Restore your iPhone” procedure.
I have everything back except now ALL my text messages are gone ‼️‼️‼️‼️
The problem now is I cannot access messages from iCloud because I forgot the 6 digit security code I entered when I first got the phone. I do NOT use any security code to open and use my phone.
I have tried a few possibilities for dates I use, but they do NOT work.
NOW WHAT ????? I need ALL mg text messages ‼️‼️‼️‼️
I’m asked to enter a 6 digit passcode that I don’t use...
The only time I ever entered one was when I first activated the phone 2 years ago along with facial recognition.
I disabled the facial ID and don’t believe I ever used it. The 6 number passcode I pretty much disabled without ever using ( I’ve rarely used a security feature to lock my phones ever)
I have no idea what 6 number I used 2 years ago. I have tried a couple of combinations of numbers ( birthday, wedding) NOTHING WORKS
I spoke with an Apple tech last night and they told me ( and that’s what I thought) they could not bypass the security system....
I KNOW I never used any passcode when setting up iCloud ( other than my Apple ID which I know)
I have YEARS of information saved in those messages.....
ANY HELP FROM ANYONE????!
Just found out my call history is gone too 😩😩😩😩 “Recents”
Aaaaahhhhhh
Im not sure about “activating” iCloud messages....
I know I had selected them to be saved in iCloud...
But I wasn’t using a security passcode...
My messages are still in storage, 2 screenshots...
