To get the most recent messages you can do <Channel>.messages.fetch({limit: <However many messages you want to fetch>})

client.once(Events.ClientReady, c => {
    channel = client.channels.cache.get('1053340012021821593');
    message = channel.messages.fetch({limit: 1})
        .then(message)
        .catch(console.error);
});

client.once(Events.ClientReady, c => {
    channel = client.channels.cache.get('1053340012021821593');
    message = channel.messages.fetch({limit: 1})
        .then(message)
        .catch(console.error);
});

I did that, but when i console.log it, it is undefined.
