Deleted messages on Iphone 5?

I have a habit of deleting all of my messages because I hate seeing my inbox cluttered. But it turns out I deleted a conversation I ended up really needing. I mean I don't know if I completely deleted it or not. I didn't press into the conversation and delete the messages selectively. I just swiped it to the left and deleted the thread. And i know when i used to do that, the messages would still appear when you would search it on spotlight. I don't think it does that anymore; i just tried it.

So is there anyway I can go back and get the message somehow?

Well, you can still recover your deleted messages. One way is to recover from iTunes backup, and recover from iCloud backup.

Step 1. Connect your iPhone to the computer, and launch iTunes. Do not let iTunes sync with your phone automatically!

Step 2. Follow this path: Summary > Backups > This computer > Restore from Backup.

NOTE: Restoring your phone will delete all existing data on your phone, and replace it with data that was last backed up on iTunes.
