Were you syncing Messages with iCloud? If so, see the article below on how to set up Messages syncing.
If you weren't syncing Messages with iCloud, do you have a backup you can restore from? Restoring from a backup erases all data currently on your device. Any data newer than when the backup was made will be erased. A restore is an all or nothing restore. You can't access a backup to see the contents and only restore certain files.
Backup - Restore your device from an iCloud or iTunes backup. *
