We come before the Lord with heavy hearts, grieved by the spiritual warfare and toxic influence you are enduring from this neighbor and their associates. The enemy is indeed at work through them, seeking to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10), but we stand firm in the authority of Jesus Christ, who has already overcome the world (John 16:33). You have rightly identified the demonic nature of their behavior—divisiveness, gossip, invasion of privacy, and a spirit that seeks to tear apart marriages, friendships, and even business relationships. This is not of God, for our Lord is a God of unity, peace, and love, not of confusion, chaos, or destruction (1 Corinthians 14:33).
First, we must address the spiritual roots of this attack. The behavior you describe is reminiscent of the works of the flesh: "enmity, strife, jealousies, outbursts of anger, rivalries, divisions, envy, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these" (Galatians 5:20-21). These are the fruits of a heart far from God, and they are being weaponized against you and your household. But take heart, for "greater is he who is in you than he who is in the world" (1 John 4:4). We must rebuke this spirit of division and gossip in the name of Jesus Christ, for it is an abomination to the Lord. Proverbs 6:16-19 tells us, "There are six things which Yahweh hates; yes, seven which are an abomination to him: arrogant eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that are swift in running to mischief, a false witness who utters lies, and he who sows discord among brothers." This neighbor and their gang are sowing discord, and we must stand against it with the Word of God and the power of prayer.
We also note that you have quoted Matthew 5:31-32, which speaks to the sanctity of marriage and the sin of divorce outside of sexual immorality. This is a critical reminder that the enemy seeks to destroy what God has joined together. Marriage is a covenant before God, and those who recklessly tear it apart invite judgment upon themselves. The neighbor’s behavior reflects a spirit of lawlessness and rebellion against God’s design, and we must pray that their hearts are exposed to the truth of their sin. If they are believers, we pray for conviction and repentance. If they are not, we pray for their eyes to be opened to their need for a Savior.
Now, let us pray fervently over this situation, binding the enemy’s work and commanding protection and deliverance for you and your household in the mighty name of Jesus Christ.

**Prayer:**
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, the name above all names by which every knee must bow (Philippians 2:10). We lift up our brother/sister who is under relentless attack from a toxic and demonically influenced neighbor and their associates. Lord, You see the chaos, the gossip, the invasion of privacy, and the spirit of division that seeks to destroy marriages, friendships, and livelihoods. This is not Your will, but the work of the enemy, and we stand against it in the authority of Jesus Christ.
Father, we rebuke the spirit of division, gossip, and lawlessness operating through this neighbor and their gang. We bind every demonic influence in their lives—every spirit of jealousy, strife, deception, and destruction—and we command them to flee in the name of Jesus Christ. Lord, expose their works of darkness and bring their schemes to nothing. Let their tongues be silenced, their plans be thwarted, and their hearts be convicted of their sin. If they are Your children, Lord, bring them to repentance. If they are not, soften their hearts to receive the truth of the Gospel before it is too late.
We pray for supernatural protection over this household. Lord, we ask that You place a hedge of thorns around this home, that no weapon formed against them shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17). Guard their privacy, Lord, and frustrate every attempt to spy, gossip, or spread lies. Let confusion fall upon those who seek to harm them, and let their own words and actions turn against them (Psalm 7:15-16). We declare that no curse, hex, or demonic assignment against this family shall stand, for Christ has redeemed them from the curse of the law (Galatians 3:13).
Father, we pray for divine intervention in this situation. If it is Your will, open the doors for this family to move swiftly and safely to a place of peace and restoration. Provide the means, the timing, and the location according to Your perfect plan. Let this toxic neighbor and their associates have no further access to them, and let their influence be cut off completely. We pray that You would send Your warring angels to stand guard over this household, to patrol the boundaries, and to drive out every evil presence (Psalm 91:11).
Lord, we also pray for the hearts of those in this household. Strengthen them in You, that they would not grow weary or fearful, but would stand firm in faith, knowing that the battle is Yours (2 Chronicles 20:15). Fill them with Your peace that surpasses all understanding, and let them rest in the assurance that You are their defender (Philippians 4:7). Remind them that vengeance belongs to You, and You will repay (Romans 12:19). Let them forgive as You have forgiven them, but also grant them wisdom to set godly boundaries and to protect themselves from further harm.
Finally, Father, we pray that You would turn what the enemy meant for evil into good (Genesis 50:20). Let this trial be a testimony of Your power and faithfulness. Let it draw this family closer to You and strengthen their trust in You alone. And if there is any area in their lives where the enemy has a foothold—any unconfessed sin, bitterness, or fear—we pray that You would reveal it and cleanse them by the blood of Jesus Christ.
We declare all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, the name at which every demon trembles and flees. Let Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Amen.

We urge you to continue standing firm in prayer and in the Word of God. Do not engage with this neighbor or their associates in the flesh, for "the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but mighty before God to the throwing down of strongholds" (2 Corinthians 10:4). Instead, let your battle be fought on your knees, with worship, and with the declaration of Scripture over your life.
If you have not already, we encourage you to anoint your home with oil (a symbol of the Holy Spirit’s protection) and pray over every room, inviting the presence of God to fill it and driving out any unclean spirits (Exodus 12:22-23, James 4:7). Play worship music in your home, and let the atmosphere be filled with praise to our King. The enemy cannot abide in a place where God is glorified.
Lastly, examine your own heart and household. Are there any areas where sin or strife has been allowed to take root? Repent and ask God to cleanse you, for the enemy often gains access through unconfessed sin (Ephesians 4:26-27). Walk in forgiveness toward those who have wronged you, but also set wise boundaries to protect your peace and your family.
We are standing with you in this battle, and we believe that God is faithful to deliver you. Keep your eyes fixed on Jesus, the author and finisher of your faith (Hebrews 12:2). He will never leave you nor forsake you (Deuteronomy 31:6). Stay strong, and trust in the Lord with all your heart (Proverbs 3:5-6).
