Thanks for reaching out to the Apple Support Communities! I hate to hear your iPhone is lost! The good news is there is an article with steps to follow If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch is lost or stolen. Since you did not have Find My iPhone enabled, you will want to check out this section:
If Find My iPhone isn't enabled on your missing device
If you didn't turn on Find My iPhone before your device was lost or stolen, you can't use it to locate your device. However, you can use these steps to help protect your data:
- Change your Apple ID password. By changing your Apple ID password you can prevent anyone from accessing your iCloud data or using other services (such as iMessage or iTunes) from your missing device.
- Change the passwords for other internet accounts on your device. This could include email accounts, Facebook, or Twitter.
- Report your lost or stolen device to local law enforcement. Law enforcement might request the serial number of your device. Find your device serial number.
- Report your lost or stolen device to your wireless carrier. Your carrier can disable the account, preventing phone calls, texts, and data use.
Find My iPhone is the only way that you can track or locate a lost or missing device. If Find My iPhone isn't enabled on your device before it goes missing, there is no other Apple service that can find, track, or otherwise flag your device for you.
Cheers!

Aug 27, 2016 6:13 AM in response to junaidjdby Michael Black,There is nothing anyone here can do for you, sorry. Apple doesn't get involved with lost or stolen property at all.
Without find my iPhone enabled, all you can do is look for it yourself. See If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch is lost or stolen - Apple Support
Be sure to let your carrier know it is missing. They may be able to blacklist it so that at least it's use on their network and those that share their blacklist will be cut off.
