In the Messages app:

iMessages: from Apple to Apple go by wi-fi (blue bubbles).

Texts: To and from Android users require cellular data (green bubbles) (provider-charges may apply)

if needed: View or change cellular data settings on iPhone - Apple Support

Else:

You may want to check you have a Contact card for the contact you don't receive Messages from.

(It is possible you have blocked (spam) messages from all those who are not listed in Contacts.)

If needed: see how to: Add and use contact information on iPhone - Apple Support
