How to set custom validation message in Laravel?

I want to show my own message instead of one provided by the framework, So I did the following but it is not making any difference and showing default messages.

$message = [];
    foreach($request->get('estimates') as $key => $val)
    {
        $rules['estimates.'.$key] = 'required|integer';
        $message['estimates.'.$key] = 'Incorrect value';
    }
    $rules['technical_information'] = 'required';
    $rules['project_risks'] = 'required';

    $this->validate($request, $rules,$message);

I believe you need to adhere to the correct format for messages. Per the Laravel docs:

$messages = [
    'required' => 'The :attribute field is required.',
];
$validator = Validator::make($input, $rules, $messages);

The key in $messages needs to be the rule , and the value is the Message -- with a placeholder for the attribute name.

You can also specify messages per rule, per attribute by using dot syntax:

'username.required' => 'the field is required...'
