Numbers 2:2; Numbers 9:2
A major foundational aspect of the walk of the believer is the Presence of God (not just the knowledge about God on some intellectual basis).

Exodus 33:14-15 (NKJV)
14And He said, ''My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.''

If you are in a relationship or friendship with a praying person, they will most likely be in prayer for you. That relationship will affect you in a good way.
Relationships get ''stuff'' on you. Good and bad!
