Recovering Deleted Messages:

What to Consider:

A. Restore from Today's Backup:

Restore your iPhone from a backup of it that contains these messages, and you could recover them.

B. Check Messages App:

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. 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.

C.  Check your Carrier’s Site:

Log in to your Carrier’s site, seeing if you can view a history there. Doing so, I can see a call log going back 90 days —but not a text messages log.

Goto Settings and messages and restore from iCloud. You will receive all your old messages.

Or Check your other devices which are connected to same iCloud account, probably messages are there in those other devices.

You will receive all your old messages.

Not if another backup has occurred after the deletion occurred. In that case, the deleted messages are gone. So, you would want to be absolutely sure that a backup was made.....before.....the message disappeared.....and.....no other backups have occurred since that time.

If I restore from iCloud won’t that delete everything since the backup

Yes, correct.
