Regardless of which IMSI you are using and to which of your toggle numbers you are sending text messages you should receive all of them as long as you have a signal. You don't necessarily need to use a local IMSI to receive text messages sent to the corresponding local number.
In other words: If you have a signal and don't receive text messages sent to your US number something has gone wrong on the network which you cannot influence from your phone.

Is there an app I need from the Apple app store?

No.

How do I access my balance from the phone? The little book they send with the sim says to dial *131# I tried that but when I hit send the phone tries to make a call
|
*131# is the correct command to request your balance. If your phone does not submit it as USSD command (as it should do) but instead tries to establish a call, then I would assume that your phone has a bug.

Also, does Toggle charge for the 5 confirmation text messages they have sent me? My balance has gone down and these have been the only messages I have received.

No, incoming messages - regardless of your location and of whether they originate from toggle or not - are always free of charge.
