you actually can't delete the Messages app.. you must have 'Removed' it.

from your Home Screen, swipe left until you get to the App Library.

Swipe downward and you'll get an alphabetical list of your apps.

Scroll to Message or type it in the search field. Once located, tap/hold and give it a second to select, then drag and it'll pop back out to your Home Screen
