So sorry to hear you can't send or receive text messages.
Just to confirm, do you have an active cellular plan?
If you are not able to send or receive text messages : https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204065
That resource is a good starting point to troubleshoot your issue.
If you are receiving a red ! mark....check your network connection.
Are you able to make and receive phone calls on your device?
Check your SMS settings.
Settings > messages > and make sure Send as SMS is enabled.
Carrier messaging rates may apply when enabled.
Hope this helps ;)
