If you were using iCloud Messages, you cannot. However, if you were not, then if you have a backup when the message was on the iPhone and you have not backed up the device since you deleted the message, you can restore the backup and it will restore the message. If you don't have a backup or have done a backup since you deleted the message, it is gone. Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch from a backup - Apple Support
