                                            self.arr_list[i].msg = message
                                        })
                                    }

                                }
}

Please help me. Thanks in Advance.

First of all you should clean your code up a bit, you do a couple of things which would be considered anti patterns

 func getLatestMessageFromFirebase(token:String,completionmessage: @escaping (_ message:String) -> Swift.Void)
    {
        ref.child("chatmessage/devicetoken/").child(token).queryLimited(toLast: 1).observeSingleEvent(of: .value, with: { (snapshot) in
            // Get user value
            for snap in snapshot.children.allObjects as [DataSnapshot] {
              let value = snap.value as? [String: Any] ?? [:] // A good way to unwrap optionals in a single line
              if let message = value["message"] as? String {
                DispatchQueue.main.async {
                    completionmessage(message)
                  }
              }
           }
        })
        { (error) in
            print(error.localizedDescription)
        }

    }

With the above code your app shouldnt crash. And if there is a message AND it is a string (which might have been your problem before) then your callback will fire.
