Export text messages from just one person... from my computer to my iPhone...?

I accidentally deleted an entire conversation of text messages on my iPhone from one person. I turned off wifi on my mac so I am able to see the deleted conversation thread on my mac. Is there any way to get just this one conversation from my computer and put it back on my iPhone?


I don't want to restore from an old iPhone backup because the backup is from more than one day ago. I don't want to lose the text messages since then.


The mac where I can see the conversation is an 2017 MacBook Pro running Mojave Version 10.14.6.

No your only option is a restore from backup.
