When he arrived in Middle Earth at the end of the first millinium (or beginning of the second) of the Third Age, he was given the ring by Cirdan who felt Gandalf would have better use for it, he was still Gandalf the Grey. In the book it does not say that he tells the Balrog he has a ring. The fire of Anor he speaks of is not from Narya.
