Well your question is a little unclear. I’m giving you one explanation but i’m not sure if this is what you want. So let me know if it’s not clear and i’ll give you a better explanation.
 
Suppose you have a body and you are pushing it against a wall. Since you are applying force on the body, the wall will apply equal amount of force on the body too and that will act as the normal reaction force. Now frictional force is coefficient of friction x normal reaction. This friction acts vertically upwards.
 
so if you are pushing this body, it’s natural tendency would be to fall down due to weight, but due to the friction acting in vertical direction the weight gets cancelled. 
 
Feel free to ask follow up questions and approve the answer if you think it’s useful :)
