Hi Cairam,
Assuming you do not house your text messages in iCloud, they are saved on your iPhone backups. Restore your latest backup to retrieve the messages that were present when the backup was created.
Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch from a backup - Apple Support
Otherwise, when you delete a message or conversation, you can't get it back (as mentioned here)
