You would not receive any new messages from a blocked contact. All the old messages from the contact are always available under the Apple Message app.


Your question is not very clear to me.

Check Messages App on your Mac:

If messages was enabled on your iPhone along with your Apple computer, then check and see if the Messages app is enabled on your Mac to see if it exists in it. You'd start up your Mac, not connecting to the Internet, and open the Massages app. Then proceed from there with retrieving it. They'd still be sitting there, even if they were deleted from your iPhone. Important: Be certain you do not connect to the Internet while booting up, as syncing would delete it. So, power off your router to avoid the connection.
