Galadriel,
I'm so glad that you've gotten a chance to read up on some of the posting that been going on here. Every post that I've made so far has been in hope that
YOU might be able to read them

.
Let's start off with the first couple of questions that you've asked: "Would God deny you for having believed first?" This is a hard question for me to answer primarily because I'm not God, and if there's one thing that I'm certain of it's that I never will be. Apart from actually being God or being able to read His mind, the only way that we will ever be able to know what God wants us to do is by reading what HE TELLS US to do.
When God tells us that we are supposed to do something, He means everything that He says. Let's look at an example:
God told Noah to build the ark of a specific type of wood, gopher wood. God told noah to take 7 of every clean animal and 2 of every unclean animal. God gave Noah the exact measurements that He wanted the ark to be. Noah did all of these things and lived.
In Leviticus chapter 10 Nadab and Abihu do one things differently than what they have been told to do by God and they were consumed with fire. While we might not be consumed with fire immediately today, if we are disobedient then one day we will be. We have to do what God says and how God says to do it out of both obedience and love for Him.
God tells us that we are to be baptized for the remission of our sins (Acts 2:38). This is why we need to be baptized, not because the wanter saves us, but because God has chosen the point that we are baptized for this purpose to cleanse of our sins and add us to His church. Baptism is not a public profession of faith, and it doesn't matter if only you and the person baptizing you are there - what matters is that you are baptized in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit for the remission of sins.
So, after all this, this is my answer to your question: If I were you, because of what the Bible teaches I would be baptized, as soon as possible, for the remission of my sins. I wouldn't do it just to be safe, but because I truly believed that what God has said is true. I can't tell you what would happen if you died before you were baptized for this reason, that's between you and God, but I do know that we need to be baptized.
Also, Galadriel, you can be baptized by anyone, anywhere. All you need is water, your repentece, belief and confession that Jesus is the Son of God, and then your baptism in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit for the remission of your sins.
I will be praying for you, and will be waiting to hear back from you
