The Nexmo SMS API only accepts a single number at a time in the to field. You will either have to loop over the list of users you want to send an SMS to

foreach($numbers as $number) {
    $client->message()->send([
        'to' => $number,
        'from' => NEXMO_FROM,
        'text' => 'Your message'
    ]);
}

Or use Nexmo SNS
