If you’re not using iOS 16.X, there is no way to retrieve the message without having a backup.
If you are using iOS 16.X, then the article I linked in my response above explains exactly how to proceed. Click on the blue link there. Settings is not involved.

I thought I hit don’t report but it disappeared

In order to be offered the choice of “Report Junk” or “Don’t Report”, you have already specified you wish to delete the message.

I have tried. I don’t know HOW to do it. I went to settings and checked and I don’t see a way to retrieve it. I don’t have an undo button on my phone. It’s an old phone and it was not backed up yet. I thought I hit don’t report but it disappeared
