Other than the ones who prophesied His birth, the first one in His lifetime was Mary, His mother. She was told by the angel to believe that her child would be the one to save the world and to not worry about being pregnant and still a virgin.

"Believer"? How do you mean?
Do you mean, someone who encountered an historic Palestinian Jewish carpenter who espoused a different form of Judaism? I'm sure there were lots of 'em.
Do you mean, a semi-divine figure, who allegedly performed miracles, and came back from the dead? Most likely Simon Peter, who was one of his first followers.
Historically, one must also keep in mind that there were a lot of "prophets", who performed miracles, talked about imminent God's Kingdom on Earth, and arose from the dead in Palestine in the First Century AD.

If you believe in the divinity of Christ and therefore he was eternal and present at the start of the world. So it would stand to reason the first believer in Christ was... himself.
The First non-Deity to believe in Christ's divinity was Mary his Mother.
