How can I get my content to show on my lock screen?

I'm new to this. My old phone, non Samsung, on the lock screen it let's me know who text me and what the message said. How do I do that? Right now it says message and that's it. At work I can't open my phone much to go into the message app to see who text me and what it says.

Settings>Notifications>Lock screen>Show content. There is also a toggle here to "Show content when unlocked." 🙂

I have that done but it still doesn't show

I'm not using any apps. Just the regular lockscreen it came with. No themes.

Oh NOW it works. It didn't work at all. I didn't change a darn thing, used my husband's phone to test it and now it works 🤨
